Multiple Frame technique

I spent the afternoon with the Multiple Frame tutorial from this month's Digital Scrapper Premier kit.  I don't always want or need the kit at the moment, but the tutorials are great.  Today I took this photo:


 And created this layout using the pattern and copy tools from PSE.  Opens a whole new artistic world.

Here's The Scoop

Do you have a little girl to scrap for?  This is the cutest kit by Leaving a Legacy Designs and it is on sale for just $2 today here.

LLD has a great Creative Team and I was inspired to scraplift them.  Here is a layout from Tina
 Here is mine:
I confess to a pretty literal scraplift.  I even put Tina's layout at the base of my own layout and placed the same elements in the same places.  I did add a few more touches to make it mine.  Thanks, Tina, for your inspiration!

Fall is Coming and Scraps N Pieces is Ready!

Summer is ending.  School is starting.  Everyone is settling into familiar routines - back packs, lunches, and fall sports like baseball and football.  If you need an escape, or find that with the kids in school you have a little free time available (what's that?), check out what the designers at Scraps N' Pieces have planned for you in September.

It happens eventually.  The big milestone birthdays are celebrated, through humor and gag gifts, and then the number somehow stops increasing.  Let's be 29 or 39 or 49 forever!  For all those "over the hill" birthday celebrations, grab Old As Dirt.  The bright palette will bring the life back into any party layout!

Grab the kit for just $7.99, the quick pages for $5.99, or go big with the bundle for $10.99.

The September Bits N' Pieces focuses on "My Guy" - all things that make us love our little guys (and even the big guys too).  These great colors definitely capture the masculine touch in these awesome products.
  Remember all pieces are just $1 the first week of the month!  After the first week, the designers may combine their products into a full-size kit and all will be at regular price, so don't wait.  Also, the first weekly challenge each month is dedicated to the month's Bits N' Pieces products.  Use them in a layout, post it and link to gallery, and earn some points.  It's a win win!!

With school back in session, back to school kits are a big hit.  Want to grab some great notebook commercial-use elements for your next release?!?  Grab Off the Grid and you'll get a super cool combination of notebook paper, envelopes, sticky notes, and ledger paper.  Don't miss out!  It's on sale the first week of release at 35% off!

Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is an annual national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of the United States.  It also means lots of stuff will be on sale!  Celebrate Labor Day by kicking your feet up, buying some awesome stuff, and scrappin' away!  The entire store will be 30% off through Monday, September 2.
