New Month, New Quick Page Exchange

Friday, August 1st, 2008

A great big thank you to everyone that participated in July’s Quick Page Exchange. We ended up with so many beautiful pages. I can’t wait to put my book together using them.

This month we are using the absolutely gorgeous, versatile, colorful “Stella” kit by SuzieBelle Designs, aka Kristie. Kristie has such an eye for color and design. She really has a talent for designing some of the most gorgeous kits. The full “Stella” kit is in the shop at ScrapMatters and will be on sale for 30% off the entire month of August. There is a darling mini kit that Kristie has, as a freebie, on her blog. You can use the freebie too but we request that 80% of your quick page be designed with the full “Stella” kit.

You can find the complete kit here.

The mini-kit can be picked up here.

Remember, everyone that participates receives the entire set of pages at the end of the month. “Stella” is going to make a stunning collection. I can’t wait to see what you all create.

August Photo Challenge & July Photo Winner!

Friday, August 1st, 2008

Hi everyone–Jet (Henriëtte) here. Thank you all for sharing your most beautiful sunset pictures with us, I for one really enjoyed them! It was soooo hard to select just one winner with so many gorgeous sunsets to choose from, it was a tough decision, but there can only be one winner and that winner is:

bcnatty with this stunning picture:

I love the composition, the silhouette and the sunlight on the water, just gorgeous!

Congrats bcnatty and thanks for playing!!! The $5 gift certificate will be send to you soon.
And now for this months challenge:

As always it is a challenge where no SCRAPPING at all is involved but just making pictures is the only requirement to play. Each month I will choose a subject for the picture;
this month it is: the wildlife in you back garden (or a bit further away)

These frogs live in a big pond a couple of villages away. I love how the one frog’s cheeks are blown up like he is having chewing gum.

How to play:
- Make a picture that has something to do with the subject, you can be as creative as you want, just make sure it has a connection with the subject.
- Post your picture in the gallery and link it back to this forum post.
- You can submit as many pictures as you like!
- I will choose the winner at the end of the month and she/he will receive a $5 gift certificate to our fabulous shop!

Thanks for playing and keep those pictures coming!
