Freebie Friday: Feast

Yay, it’s happy-hour in freebie-land again, or at least in my little scrap corner of the world! And I did do some scrapping again this week, even though I was struggling with whether I should scrap or read Lord of the Rings instead, the reading project I’ve ventured into recently. Lucky thing is, I found a happy compromise of “reading” and scrapping at the same time. How I’m able to manage that, you wonder? Well, Audiobook, is the magic word! Now, I’m going on adventurous journeys through Middle Earth, and still I can get some scrapping done! Genius, right?! Anyways, you get the benefits of it all, because while Frodo was fighting against ringwraiths and the likes, I managed to whip up a new freebie template for you! It’s based on my page “Feasting with Friends,” which actually is part of a double page spread.   Alright, so I hope you can see an image there, because I can’t, lol! (Note to self: Never upload a freebie that late on a Friday night, when internet traffic …

Journaling Café: Assessing What’s Past

The beginning of a new year is a great opportunity to take stock of the year that’s past – where have you succeeded? Where have you failed? In which areas can you say that you’ve grown? What did the past year bring over all? Lot’s of good questions that can help you make the most of this new year. So, here are today’s journaling prompts: I also did some reassessment, and here’s how my page turned out:

Treasure Sunday: January 8th

I’ve been hunting again. Those treasures in the galleries, that is. And look what I found … Crash Landing by ~Karen~ I was having so much fun with this page. Not only do I like the line across the page to which she clipped her elements and title, but the photo captures the memory perfectly, and the journaling says it all!   Street Art by faby33 Moving on to a quite graphic and artistic page. What a great job she did with the brushes and the blending. I love the messiness of it all, the stamps she added, and the bits and pieces of wordart blended into the whole!   Glimpses of Prague by Therese And while we’re at it, I’m going to show you another quite graphic, but beautiful page! What totally caught my eye with this one, were the beautiful photographs that she edited so perfectly. Love the title work, too, and that with the huge white space, she gave the photos room to speak for themselves!   50 Things About Me by …

Freebie Friday: Life

  Freebie Friday always is a happy Friday for me, since I get to share another one of my templates with you. This one’s featuring my layout “Life Happens,” and I love how it’s the 44th freebie template that I’ve created for you! Anyways, I hope you can find some use for this template, and as always I’d like to see what you do with it. Happy Friday, scrappers! Note: Please do not re-distribute this template in any way (you may share the link to this post), and when you use this template, please make sure to credit it to Misty Hilltops Designs.

Inspire Me: Kelly Purkey

Wow! It’s been a while since I did my last real “Inspire Me” post. Looks like Christmas and the December Daily project just had me distracted quite some. But today, Inspire Me is back. And today … I’d like to introduce you to Kelly Purkey. Kelly is a gal from New York who’s real big into traditional scrapbooking, but she gives each of her pages her own hip twist. She is a member of the design team over at Studio Calico, and that seriously means something, right? You’ll find tons of inspiration simply by visiting her blog, and then there’s her gallery at Studio Calico, too.

Journaling Café: New Beginnings

A new year has started: 2012! A new year means another chance at life; another chance to start all over; to make a new beginning. I’m sure, there are things in your life for which you wish for a new beginning, another chance to make things better. Today’s journaling prompts, therefore, are all about these new beginnings, and maybe they’ll inspire you to think about that which in your life needs a fresh start … Here’s my page about new beginnings: I hope, today’s prompts will inspire your journaling this week, and if you like, you can share your pages with us as well. The font used for the prompt is my own handwriting font DJB Squirrels In My Pants by Darcy Baldwin (available at the Sweetshoppe).  

Happy New Year, And Good News!

Well, I’ve wished you a happy new year already, so now it’s time to share some good news with you as well! The Sweetshoppe is open again, and that means we are in for some yummy treats. Not only do they present themselves with an all new look, and new features, tutorials, etc., but for those freebie lovers among you, I have some especially good news: SSD changed their policy (no freebies in the past), so now they offer free samples of their designs on their website. It gets even better. What used to be their Quarterly Assortment (a huge collection of mini kits for a really really low price) has turned into a free giveaway! So, whether you’re new to digiscrapping and are looking for some great products to start with, or whether you’re an old pro, you’ll sure be able to find something to complement your scrapping stash. Just sayin’ …
