Aced It Collection - New at both stores

Aced It is new at both Gingerscraps and MyMemories!

I hope you enjoy the wonderful layouts the ScrapChat Designs and Gingerscraps teams have created with this fun collection. There is so much inspiration here for using Aced It for school pages and well beyond the classroom.

Named for my grandchildren Grace and Jace, Aced It celebrates the bright beginnings, brave tries, big smiles, little victories, and school-day moments that become part of growing up. It’s about learning, trying, discovering, and cheering on every bit of progress along the way.

Aced It Collection contains 16 patterned papers, 12 cardstock papers, 70 elements, 20 extra papers, 10 journal cards, 12 flairs, 8 quick pages, and 20 title builders.

As you can see from these wonderful layouts, Aced It isn’t just for school pages or the elementary years. The collection works beautifully for first-day photos, meeting a new teacher, celebrating accomplishments, and even a military layout about returning home.

That versatility is exactly what I hoped for when I created it.

August Use It All Challenge

August Use It All Challenge at MyMemories

This month’s ScrapChat Designs Use It All challenge at MyMemories features the Blue Skies Ahead Mini.

And don’t let the name fool you. Blue Skies Ahead has plenty of lovely patterns, florals, greenery, and accents that are not blue at all.

This mini is so much fun to work with and can go in all kinds of directions. My first layout and this one both happen to feature a dog, but the collection could just as easily be used for bridal showers, date nights, newborn pages, family memories, outdoor photos, and so much more.

Visit the MyMemories forum for all the challenge details and the free Blue Skies Ahead Mini download.

Once you create your layout, post it in the challenge thread so everyone can enjoy your creativity and see what you made with the same mini.

If you want even more to play with, the entire Blue Skies Ahead Collection is only $5 this month.

Combining Templates

Baseball Memories with Photo Focus and 3 x 3 Two

I combined the Photo Focus and 3 x 3 Two template sets to create this special memory of a baseball game.

The mix worked perfectly for giving one favorite photo extra attention while still leaving plenty of room for all the supporting shots from the day.

I paired the templates with an old ScrapChat Designs favorite, the Rookie of the Year Kit, which was originally designed for this young boy's first birthday. It was so much fun to pull it back out for a completely different kind of milestone.

I love the way the whole page came together!

Use It All August: Blue Skies Ahead

 

Use It All August: Blue Skies Ahead

This month we’re working with the Blue Skies Ahead Sampler by ScrapChat Designs, a cheerful mini filled with fresh greens, sunny yellows, sweet florals, and pieces perfect for documenting bright days, garden moments, outdoor memories, hopeful stories, simple joys, and all the little moments that feel like a fresh breath of air.

Yes, even though it is called Blue Skies Ahead, this sampler is very green. Sometimes the sky sends flowers instead.

Visit the MyMemories forum to download the sampler and join the August Use It All challenge.

I created this layout using this month’s sampler. The only change I made was to desaturate the ticket, clip the cardstock to it, and set the cardstock layer to Soft Light.

If you love the mini and want more, be sure to check out the full Blue Skies Ahead Collection by ScrapChat Designs. It is just $5 during August only.
