Blue Heart Scraps

Grand Opening & Sale! :)

I’m quite excited this Friday morning – I’ve got some exceptionally fun news to share! 🙂

I’m excited about the opportunity to work with the rest of the incredibly talented designers at Digital Scrap Cafe. If you haven’t checked their store out lately, you should. Just be prepared to fall in love most of the gorgeous goodies you’ll find there!

In honor of my grand opening, my entire Digital Scrap Cafe store will be 40% off between now and July 15th. I don’t have everything loaded, yet (been battling some really killer migraines this past week) – but I’m working hard on stocking it. And, for a $3 purchase of anything in my store, you’ll be rewarded with the following alpha for free (it will be automatically added to your purchase when your cart total is $3 or more).

Plus! (yep, there’s more!) I’ll be spotlighting one of my kits each day between July 1st and July 8th, and will have a brand new freebie for you to download here on my blog (and trust me, my creative team gals have been hard at work, so these freebies are gorgeous!). The first spotlight kit, and freebie, are below.

I chose my latest kit to spotlight first, because it reminds me of two of the things I love most in this world – my two adorable little boys. Tyler, my oldest, has found a love for all things rocket ships, aliens and outer space lately. So, of course, my youngest (Hayden) has followed right in his footsteps proclaiming his love for those things, as well. Perfect for all your space loving layouts (and those non-space related, too!), Out of this World comes complete with 16 textured papers (9 plain, 7 patterned), 40 elements and 14 word strips.

A few of the gorgeous layouts created by my creative team gals:

And, last but certainly not least – today’s freebie! This gorgeous 4 color alpha pack was created by my wonderful creative team member, Kim. Enjoy! 🙂

The Design Factor – Week 1 Freebie!

The Design Factor started this week, with Scrappity-Doo-Dah hosting the first week challenge. Their challenge was to create a mini kit inspired by our idea of summer. All elements had to be hand drawn or extracted by the designer, and let me tell you, I had a BLAST drawing my goodies! You can read the entire list of instructions for the challenge for week one here.

My first thought? Popsicles and fruity goodness, because that’s certainly what my boys enjoy most about the warmer weather time. But, in this house, summer also means lots and lots (and sometimes way too much, lol) baseball! And that was my inspiration for my kit, Batter Up.

Summer Fun CT Layouts

Memory must be the first thing to go in old age, because I completely forgot to show you all the gorgeous layouts my creative team made with this week’s new release, Summer Fun.

Now, if these don’t get you fully in the summer mood, I don’t know what will! 🙂

New Release: Summer Fun, Winner & Template Challenge

This week’s new release is called “Summer Fun” and is a tribute to just some of the many

From pool time and water gun fights to blowing bubbles and flying kites – Summer fun has

a little bit of everything to help you scrap all your awesome summer adventures.

Also, I’m super excited to be hosting the Semi-Homemade Template Challenge at Brownie Scraps this month! I’ve always been a lover of templates and the creativity kick start they can give any scrapping layout.
