iNSD2021 weekend challenges

International Scrapbooking Day has been in full swing around the world this past weekend. There have been challenges at all the sites that I follow and so I've had a very creative weekend. 

First up are the challenges from at AppScrappers on Facebook. There were 10 challenges in total. Some of these I am combining with challenges from some of the other sites too.

Just for AppScrappers I did these

For my final layout for the font challenge I used the new kit from Rachel Etrog, shared in my previous post.

So look at that I've managed to get all 10 done for AppScrappers... yippee. 

I also made this one for a separate challenge at The Lilypad:

Telephone

and my final layout for these iNSD challenges is for The Digital Press:

Recipe

So in total that was 10 challenges at AppScrappers, 3 challenges at The Lilypad (2 layouts for the same challenge) and 4 challenges at The Digital Press.... not bad going for three days of intense scrapping.

Now there are the few still to get done for Gingerscraps' iNSD event which is due before Thursday evening.... best I get back to scrapping.

EDITED 5 May: Just found out I won Challenge 7 and overall second prize for the AppScrappers iNSD event.... yippee. More scrapping stash coming my way.

Rachel Etrog - A Book and A Mug

There were a whole host of kits and grab bags available all weekend long at The Digital Press especially for interNational Scrapbooking Day. Rachel has a wonderful kit called A Book and A Mug available as a grab bag... soon to be release as a kit option.

Kepp your eyes open at The Digital Press... it will be coming soon.

Cornelia Designs - A Bug's Life

Wow Cornelia has been on a roll this week and gotten three different kits available for National Scrapbooking Day sale at The Digital Press. The benefit for me is that I get to scrap with these beauties.

The third kit today is A Bug's Life... perfect for all those creepy crawlies that are around... like the spider we found nesting in our water meter box... yuck!

Check out this full collection on sale this weekend at The Digital Press.

Cornelia Designs - Plant Water Grow

 It's a busy weekend with National Scrapbooking Day tomorrow. Lots of new kits being released just in time.... like this beautiful one from Cornelia called Plant, Water, Grow.

I don't have a green thumb at all... more likely to kill plants than help them grow. I do however like to photograph those that we have... like our strelitzia that bloomed twice this past week after nearly 20 years of no flowers at all.

Check out this collection at The Digital Press.

Cornelia Designs - Hello Good Morning

It's National Scrapbooking Day tomorrow and The Digital Press is having a sale and lots of lovely new kits. Today Cornelia has released a lovely collection called Hello Good Morning just in time for this great event.

This collection has papers, elements, cards and wordstrips... such a jampacked kit indeed

Check it out at The Digital Press.

The Lilypad - April challenges

Besides the SWL Make It Snappy layout that I did at the beginning of April, I wasn't sure if I would in fact get any of the other challenges at The Lilypad done for this month. But I have dived into scrapping mode the last two days and pulled it off.

There are at least two others that I could potentially still do this month but I think I will give it a break and do lots of backing up now to get ready for this weekend's onslaught of International Scrapbooking Day (#iNSD2021)

Gingerscraps - April challenges

Another great month of doing the challenges at Gingerscraps though I did leave it all to this last week to get them done. This was mainly as I was doing the Scrap Survivor and Dandelion Dust Design challenges plus all my DT work first. Now that I have had a few moments free I could concentrate on these.

I really love being able to do my 10 layouts each month to earn the free kit.... not much effort for a great reward. This month the layouts are very varied with loads of different kits and styles used. Definitely stretching myself a little.

The Digital Press - April Challenges

There are five new challenges up at The Digital Press and I have managed to do them all once again this month:

1. Template by NiniGoesDigi - use the Garden Party kit from the retirement sale

2. Template by Rachel Etrog

3. Tweed challenge by Laura Passage

4. Powerful Words by Cornelia Designs

This layout got picked as a gallery standout

5. Before and After by Dawn by Design

Another great month of challenges and more layouts ticked off my to do list.

Edited 16 May 2021: My layout for the Tweed challenge won me a $5 voucher

NiniGoesDigi - Garden Party

The Digital Press is having a 70% off retirement sale this week. You can pick up some kits that will be gone by the end of the month... so hurry quickly.

On sale from NiniGoesDigi is the Garden Party kit... such a fun one.

Look out for this and lots more on special all week long at The Digital Press.

Dandelion Dust Designs - April Mojo Mods

First up can I just brag a little.... I won the first quarter mojo mods pick... yay! I got a coupon to go shopping and managed to snag a few new kits, some of which I used for some of this month's challenges. 

Here is what I've created for this month's challenges.
