This weekends new releases - and some sad news

Hi peeps! Time for some gorgeous new releases to play with!

On A Whimsical Adventure has a re-release this weekend:

There´s been new stuff added and of course you can buy them separately. I just like to show you the whole lot at the same time - and it´s the best offer too. The pic is linked to the store. I made this layout:

I´ve used a really old photo which I scanned with an app (which was rubbish if you ask me). Next time I´ll be using the real scanner.  I did some photo treatmend with Totally Rad and I think it got perfect for the colors of this kit.

Next up - the new releases over at The DigiChick is up since Thursday and I´ve been playing with these:

Once again I´m showing you the collections and as always you can buy them separately if you like.

The first one is made for May template challenge using at the flea market and the challenge template made by The Nifty Pixel:

Second one is made for the Give me space challenge using Wings Things:

Third layout is also made with Wings Things and a template from The Nifty Pixel: 

I gotta be honest and say that I´m really pleased with my layouts this time. It´s gonna be great to put them in my album later.

Now to the sad news: 

Yes, I´m afraid it´s true. Em has decided to step down from her designing and I will truly miss working with her wonderful and unique design. I use her templates all the time so now´s your opportunity to grab some - and her gorgeous kits as well.  Please click HERE to read all about it on her blog.

Kraft+ challenge May

Goodness me! I can´t believe I haven´t been here for such a long time now. There has been so much stuff going on lately and I´ll make another blogpost this weekend.

Today is all about the Kraft+ Challenge for May which you can read all about clicking this image below:

I came up with this layout:

I used this:

• Hearts Afloat - digital kit by The Nifty Pixel, TDC
• Editorial Play v.2 Page Drafts by The Nifty Pixel, TDC

Hope you liked it and don´t forget to try you too!

Hugs, Carina

CSI Major Casefile

Hi peeps!
Why not kickstart 2017 with a couple of challenges? First out is the Major Casefile over at CSI

As I´m a member of the The Nifty Pixel CT (who made that fab template above) I got a headstart and made this:

I used these fab things too from The Nifty Pixel:

All the pics are linked so you can easily find them! There´s some great prizes to win at CSI so be sure to check it out!

Cheers, Carina

Lots and lots of new releases

All of my designers have released gorgeous stuff for this weekend - and one have also moved to another store! Lots of goodies to play with for me.

Now on to the releases. Let´s start with Juno Designs:

They are just amazing and she really has a talent for putting together the most fab color combos! Her kits are also jam packet with goodies so you get a lot to choose from when you´re making your pages. Here´s two layouts from me using the kits:

The Nifty Pixel has also a new fab pack of templates released over at The Digichick:

I used one of them for my layout above about my DS.

On A Whimsical Adventure has not only two stunning releases -she has also moved store to Sweet Shoppe Designs! I´m so happy for her. Take a look at these:

My layouts:

You still have some time to grab all of the things for a discount today this Sunday - so don´t wait too long!

Now I´m gonna enjoy this Sunday doing Christmassy stuff - hope you have a great day!

Hugs, Carina

New release by The Nifty Pixel

Hi everyone!

Here´s this week´s new release from The Nifty Pixel called The Night Before:

She also made a pack with some awesome matching templates:

I used one of the templates and the collection for this layout:

All the previews are linked to The DigiChick Store and remember that you can grab all the things in the bundle individually if you want to.

CSI Major Case File no.217

Hi peeps!

I almost forgot to post my layout for the Major Case File over at CSI. This is what you have to go after:

And since I´m on The Nifty Pixel CT I worked with her gorgeous template and came up with this:

I used all the colors; wood, penwork, animals, leaves and documented about autumn. The kits I used are Woodland Walks by On A Whimsical Adventure, TDC and Hello Autumn elements by Paula Kesselring, TLP.

See ya next time!

New releases and DSD

This weekend it was time for DSD - Digital Scrapbooking Day. Isn´t funny how the manage to always stretch these days over several days? The more appropriate title would be DSW - Digital Scrapbooking Weekend...Hehehe!

Aaanyway - my sweet designers had made some releases besides their awesome sales (which you still can be a part of as of today Sunday). You can find the links to the right ---------->

The Nifty Pixel released a totally awesome Halloweeny collection which I totally adore:

As always you CAN buy them separately but I really think you have to see the whole collection. I can also finally show you a layout with this that I really like myself:

If you are a fan of Penny Dreadful I think you recognize the handsome Dr Frankenstein. I´m gonna miss that show so much.

Next new release is from Juno Designs who once more has teamed up with Amanda Yi and made another Zodiac collab:

I think the color combos are gorgeous and you really don´t have to make a Virgo layout at all. Like I did - since there´s no one in the family that is born in that sign:

*********************************************************

I had planned to do some "stalking" in the forums of the digicommunity during DSD - but to my happy surprise my DD was home from college so I got to spend some quality time with her.  I did a little shopping and made ONE DSD challenge layout.

This is what I got from The Lily-Pad:

And since I spent $15 I got this gorgeous collab for free:

I already have Part One which I manage to download for free this past week as their pre-DSD freebie;

As my last thing today I want to show you my latest project I´m working on. I bought some new dies from Tim Holtz:

 

I decided to reuse some old boxes I had at home and this is it for now:

Or actually - that is the latest photo I have right now. I just painted it with gesso and gonna let that dry really good. THEN the fun can begin!

Catch you later!/Carina
