Saturday Scraplift-Bold Background and Adorable Faces

Posted on May 24, 2013 by grandma lynnie

The Saturday Scraplift is really a fun challenge to lead. One of the parts of the challenge that I like best is combing the gallery and choosing a layout to lift. This week’s layout jumped right out of the gallery and said, “Pick me! Pick me!” I fell in love with the bold background, photo arrangement and well placed embellishments of  Pretty Princess by wvsandy.

CT Member Georgina (georgeinci) said that she “drew inspiration from the angles” of the layout. I love the adorable smiles in the photos she used on her page!

Photography Scrapbooking Challenge: Beautiful Nature

Posted on May 24, 2013 by anke

It looks as though spring has finally arrived, although these last couple of days it seems more like August around here, hot and humid. Having said that, I thought it would be nice to get out there and find a pretty landscape to take a picture of. So that is your challenge today, get yourself some nature on film :) By landscape I do not mean the orientation of the photo but the photo itself. Katie has a pretty little freebie pack for us, I hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.
Here are a couple of examples for you

I love how Sara used the photo as her background and then added all those cute frames to the page. Just lovely!

Merr’s landscape is just absolutely gorgeous, what a breathtaking view, it makes you happy just to look at it. I love the scatterings!!

This is the view from my kitchen window. I don’t even mind doing the dishes having all this beauty to look at. I am so happy this endless winter is finally over. I hope you will find some pretty scenes to take pictures of. Please post your completed pages in the Photography Scrapbook Challenge Gallery by Tuesday Noon (I am giving you some extra time since Monday is Memorial Day :) ). If you use all Designer Digitals product you will be entered for a random drawing of a 5$ GC to the store. Now go out there and shoot some nature!!

How to Cut SVG Images With the Silhouette Machine [Video]

Posted on May 24, 2013 by DesignerDigitals

In addition to a wide array of other digital products, DesignerDigitals sells SVG cutting files for use in a die cutting machine.

In this series of tips, we’ll help you get the most from these files by showing you how to load and use these products in the Silhouette Cameo. As an added bonus, some of the cutting file products in our store contain SVG cutting files. To use these, you need to upgrade the Silhouette software to the Designer Edition. You may wish to do this since SVG files are easy to use in the Silhouette software. To use SVGs, you’ll use the Offset Window to trace the files.

Template Scrapbooking Challenge: Movies, Books and More

Posted on May 22, 2013 by KimR+

Kim here with this weeks template challenge! I really enjoy documenting lists. Especially the things that we may forget about down the road. I do however, need to be better at doing this more often. When I came across Studio Double-D’s Layer Works No. 155 I knew immediately that I wanted to play with it.LT725024

Steph took the opportunity to document a few of her girls favorite movies. I love how she wrote down the detail in her journaling…such a great mom! And the neutral palette is wonderful not to distract from the focus. TC052213-StephSupplies: Layer Works No. 155, Like This Paper Pack, Pattern Mix: Neutrals Paper Pack No. 01, Clean Stitched Borders: White No. 01, Fine Line Border Lines Brushes and Stamps No. 05, Pin It!: Enamel Hearts, Winter Peony Element Pack, Arctic White Paper Pack

I grew up watching movies. My dad collects movies. We can just go over to his house to “check out” a movie. However, with this template I wanted to step outside of the box just a little and document something other than movies. I opted to go with the four most recent books that I have read.TC052213-KimSupplies: Assorted Messy Stitches: White No. 03, Baker’s Twine: Lime, Catana Element Pack, Chevron Cardstock: Orchard, Clock Parts No. 07, Defined Tapes No. 01, DocuStacks No. 01, Enchanted Easter Element Pack, Everyday Clusters No. 01, Fine Lines Border Lines Brushes and Stamps, From My Bookshelf No. 02 Element Pack, Layer Works No. 155, Layer Works No. 203, Library Card Collection: Basics, Masking Layers No. 01, Maybe Not Solids Paper Pack, Messy Stitched Rounded Corners: White No. 01, My Bookshelf Alphabet: Natural No. 01, Spring Twists No. 01, Sentiment Journalers No. 01, Spot Dots: Orchard, Stamped Edgers Brushes and Stamps No. 01, Striped Dots: Orchard, Textured Cardstock: Orchard Paper Pack, This Time Brushes and Stamps, Vintage Charm Element Pack, White and Grey Tab Alphabet, Wooden Alphabet No. 14

Bailey used the template to showcase some of the apps that she loves. I think it’s so fun to learn about new and different apps. I adore how Bailey used fun and bright colors. The star glow just shines on the dark background paper.TC052213-BaileySupplies: Layer Works No. 155, Day Out Paper Pack, Basic Paper Alpha: Teal, Life Lines Kit

I look forward to what you want to document with this template. Will it be movies? Books? Food? Family? The possibilities are endless. Please share your pages with us in the Template Challenge Gallery. Happy Scrapping!
