Scraps with "Sweets, Hearts and Roses"

Here are a couple more layouts with my newest kit, "Sweets, Hearts and Roses".  It is available free at Scrapbook Flair here with membership.  Membership is free as well, or you can purchase an upgraded membership.

This is my sister-in-law with her granddaughter (my great-niece).  A tender moment captured Christmas Day 2013.

And this layout was to see if I could do a scene with my Sweets, Hearts and Roses kit.  I extracted my granddaughter and the tree trunk from a photo taken last fall.

And this layout was done with the same kit.  This is a sweet little puppy that has become a new fur-baby for a friend at Scrapbook Flair.  I also used my free template posted on March 1, 2014 to make this layout.

Haley Bug - Easter 2010

I followed a link from Creative Busy Hands to a blog by Amber Shaw.  This is the first time I have visited her blog and was happy to discover that for March she posted a free template in conjunction with a monthly contest.  For the contest, you use her template and create a scrap with one of her kits.  Upon doing so, and sending her a link to your scrap, you are then entered in a drawing for a coupon toward the purchase of other kits by Amber.  So, here is the scrap I made and I have included a link to her blog.  I can hardly wait all month until April because it looks like she does this monthly.

When I saw the colors of this kit, I knew I wanted to use the photos of my granddaughter from Easter a few years ago because the colors all coordinate.  I often call her Haley Bug or Miss Bug which is why "bug" is included on the scrap.  

Here is the link to Amber Shaw's blog in case you want to join her March challenge, too.

The kit I used is called Happy Go Lucky, and of course is by Amber Shaw.

The woman on the right is my newest daughter-in-law and her sister at my daughter-in-law bridal shower a couple of years ago.  The theme was tropical and was held poolside at her parents' house.

New Free Kit Coming to Scrapbook Flair

I have created a new Designer Collection that will be available soon at Scrapbook Flair.  It is for Valentine's Day and is called Sweets, Hearts and Roses.  And, that is exactly what is included in the kit…lots of sweets, hearts and roses.  It is a rather large kit with over 120 elements and 25 papers.  It includes word art and templates in psp format.  Below are some of the templates.  The photos are my youngest son and his beautiful wife.  The first is one of the wedding photos and the other two are engagement photos.

The kit should be available in about a week.  If you haven't checked out SBF, follow the link on this page and join.  There are free memberships which allow you to always download for free the latest 3 Designer Collections and post your own scraps and enter challenges.  There are also some paid memberships that allow you to have more scraps on your own homepage and download more that just the last 3 Designer Collections.  I hope to see you there!
