Totally Girly, Totally Livibug and a FREEBIE!

I've been browsing through Mel's kits and found this really pretty girly pack. Livibug Kit was inspired by one of her CTs and that's where it got it's name --- Livibug ;) The colors are just fantastic, sassy, pretty, sweet and very um... girly.

Here is a full preview of the kit:


It includes 10 papers colorful papers, 1 alpha sheet, 1 barette, 2 bows, 1 butterfly, 2 buttons, 1 cellphone, 1 curled ribbon, 1 curved paper strip, 5 flowers, 3 frames, 1 heart button, 1 lipstick, 1 page border, 3 paper flowers, 1 rainbow button, 2 ribbons, 1 splat, 1 stitch, 2 swirls, 1 tag, 1 trim, 5 wordarts, and 1 wire all at 300 dpi.

You can grab the kit at Mel's stores in GottaPixel.net and Scrapbook-bytes.com.

Here are some layouts that Mel's CT have came up with it:

Hope you'll enjoy scrapping!

Thanks for stopping by...

'Til next time!

Busy Bee Freebie

I am so excited to play with Busy Bee, the colors just say spring to me. Now, while I love me some pink, I can get tired of it eventually (I know, how is that possible??). So to change up my wallpaper on my phone, I used a fun template I found over the weekend and made this wallpaper: 

In case you missed what Busy Bee looks like, here is the preview:

 And because it was a part on ScrapBook Bytes  Grab-a-Byte (GAB) there are lots of other products in the store that can coordinate with it.

I know the wallpaper may look odd when it's not loaded, but trust me, it looks great loaded and behind all your apps. I keep my screens pretty minimal so there isn't anything in front of the flower, making it look like everything is sitting on the shelves.

April Desktop Freebie!

Hi all...Cindy here! :) I'm back with your April desktop...Hope you like it!




I used the Denim Bundle, a Duo-licious Collab from A+ Designs and Danimoy Designs available in the Duo-licious Store at ScrapBookBytes... enjoy!

Organization, Files and Productivity

I have been working on converting and importing my digital supplies into Lightroom. Using the system described on DigiScrap 101. This system of key-wording and organizing could also be applied to Picasa, understanding that some of the keywords may not "stick" if you are tagging/key-wording PNG files.

I also added in a bit that I heard on the Paperclipping Digi Show, that scrapping can go faster if you have a "To Be Scrapped" file. So I took a twist on that and created collections in Lightroom with pictures, templates, papers and elements. Well, I haven't added all the papers, elements and templates yet, but I have pictures grouped into how I want to scrap them, so I can pick a bundle, look for a template, pick a kit and scrap!

Here is one of the first pages using my new system:

I used Echoes of Love:

not a traditional Christmas kit, the colors are beautiful for the pictures of Santa.

I have only imported 10 or so designers into my Lightroom catalog and I am now where near close to key-wording all of those. I do love that I can batch keyword items as I import them, so all my supplies are key-worded with the designer name and kit names. I am finding that it is easier to pick out what I want to scrap, and I am hoping to focus more on the stories that I want to get scrapped, while using the beautiful supplies that I have. How are your supplies organized? Do you have a system that works for you, or are you looking for a system?

Friday Freebie

I decided to make a cluster frame from the Denims & Daisies collab by Mel and Dani. I received my first LOTD and LOTW with my page created with it. A great kit for both girls and boys!

Here's what the frame looks like

You can grab it at 4shared. Have a wonderful weekend!

here is what I came up with-

 I still feel like it needs some journaling, but I love the limey green with the soft color of the cake.

No freebie this week, I found a bunch of strawberries at the store today, so I have to get them put in the freezer. I'll work on one next week.
