Rachel Etrog - September Stories

 It's time for a new month of kits and the Special Edition kits at The Digital Press as sooooooo pretty this month. All the designers use the same palette and design mix and match kits. I got to play with Rachel's one today called September Stories.


This is even same day scrapping... took this photo of Mom this morning whilst there on a quick visit. Spring is arriving with warmer temperatures and all her daisies are in bloom.


Rachel Etrog - Perfectly Imperfect

During Pennysavers Rachel Etrog put out a kit called Perfectly Imperfect. I so wanted to get a layout done for it during August but never got there. I finally finished it this week... so yes the title of the kit is very apt!


This kit is still available and will be a great addition to your stash. Check it out at The Digital Press.

PixelScrapper - Aug2020 challenges

With Summer Layout Madness last month I got so many challenges done that I decided to keep the momentum going and do a few more this month at PixelScrapper. These are what I did:

1. Design - stacked papers
I used a sketch from AppScrappers for this layout and the SummerDays kit from GDD.

These next three I showed under my previous post for The LilyPad. It's great to combine challenges.

2. Scraplift - the photography layout
3. template - the eagle page 
4. Recipe - the Wyndford page

Shucks I ran out of steam and month to get all 8 challenges done this month. Will have to try again in September I guess. Getting at least 8 challenges done means that you score 10 more downloads at PixelScrapper... you get 5 free each day so it is lovely to get a few more (once off) to continue stash building.

The Lilypad - Aug2020 challenges

I haven't done too many challenges from The Lilypad over the last two months... was limiting myself to just a few. Anyways, this month I decided to do a few again:

1. Scrapping With Liz - Make It Snappy
I made this page so quickly I forgot to put the date on it... I will more than likely make a companion to it before I call it done as I have lots more photos from this trip in the bush.

2. Rachel Jefferies - Mixed Media
Rachel provided us with a few kit on condition that you make a layout... well I couldn't turn down that opportunity.

3. Photography


4.  Random
I entered this layout in the South African Scrap & Sell facebook group Woman's Day challenges... create a layout about yourself with your own handwritten journalling and title "I am".

5. Style

6. Inspiration


7. Scraplift a paper layout


8. Template

9. Lynn Grieveson - stretch a kit (ie make 2 layouts from the same kit)



So it's been a good month of doing challenges with The LilyPad again... will try to do some more next month too.

I used a sketch from Scrapbook Generations and photos from Wyndford from two years ago.

GoneDigital Design - Summer Days

 The PennySavers sale is on at The Digital Press at GDD has a beautiful new kit going at $1 per section

I used the sketch from AppScrapper facebook group too to create my layout.

The Digital Press - Aug2020 challenges

There are only two challenges at The Digital Press this month... and I did them both.

1. NiniGoesDigi - template

2. Rachel Etrog - template

It's a very quiet challenge month but I think it's because of the pennysavers sale going on. I am building up my shopping cart of goodies to get.
