Digital Scrapbooking Blog and Scrapbook Inspiration
from DesignerDigitals

Running a little late, but I’m here with week 9 of our 10 weeks 2 Treasure series! And you know what that means… next week we’ll be able to order our photobooks!! woo hoo!!

So, snag the Hugs & Kisses Layered Template No. 9 and let’s get this book wrapped up!

And I’m carrying the same, consistent look through my book by using Dave’s midnight sepia action and desaturatng the lower layer for a dreamy look to the large photo and using clipping masks with the Little Princess Kit papers for some added interest! You can get some tips on clipping masks in our knowledgebase!

Layout details here and here!

Share you pages with us in the 10 Weeks 2 Treasure Gallery as we wrap up this series!

Did you see this gorgeous, retro layout by oldvwblues (aka Vicki) in the gallery?

I love how the strips of patterned paper frame the photo, and the soft-focus feel achieved by the distressing. That layered title is a real eye-catcher too!

Hi girls!  It is Mollie this week from the M & M duo of Merrilee & Mollie heading up the 3 Kits 3 Ways challenge on the Designer Details Blog.  I am delighted to show you the three ways in which Creative Team members Kathie {Kathie02}, Sam {sam ellis} and I have used these three kits from the Designer Digitals shop.

For those of you who may be new to this challenge, here it is in a nutshell. Merrilee & I will post a challenge for you on the DD blog every second week, and we will choose three kits from the store that three members of the Creative Team use in three different ways. For your layouts use the three kits along with any extra DD products from the shop that you wish. We love showing you how versatile the kits can be, and we hope that you will join in on the fun!

Before you see the “3 Ways”, take a look at the “3 Kits”.

Worn Strips by Lynn Grieveson

And, now for the best part . . . our 3 Ways layouts:

“Celebrate” is from our talented { Kathie 02 }. We all think of Buddy as part of the family around here at Designer Digitals, and I love that he it hitting the blog this week!

Kathie used these other products from the DD store:  Katie’s Hearts Alphabet Brushes and Stamps, Lynn’s Worn Paper Edges and Jesse’s Clean and Serene No. 02 Paper Pack to complete her page.

Now, just look who is the new dog on the block!  Sam { sam ellis } introduced us to her new pup, British this year and has created this layout named, I Adore U.  British may be a youngster, but he certainly can hold his own on the blog today, can’t he?  You just have to smile when you look at this face!

Sam has used these “extras” for her layout:  Lynn’s Worn Frame Edges,  Katie’s Joulunaika Paper Pack & Katie’s Vintage Journals No. 02.

I {readstoomuch} am using the three challenge kits and a few extras, today in my layout called “ENJOY”.  I loved using Pattie’s kit for a layout about our grandson rather than for our dog, and I think that it is just perfect for little boys too!

My additional items are:  Katie’s Shaped Notebook Journalers, Katie’s Spot On Titles-Rub-Ons, Pattie’s Staple Its & Katie’s Tagged Monograms~Red {coming soon}.

I hope that you will enjoy working with these kits as much as we have.  Merrilee and I look forward to seeing your pages posted in the 3Kits 3Ways Gallery.  And, remember that you can use any extra items from the Designer Digitals store that you would like to use for your layouts.  Be sure to check out the 3 Kits 3 Ways Challenge Gallery to see these layouts a bit closer too.
