Aglow!

I'm so excited for the new release from Natalie's Place Designs...Aglow! It's a tribute to the sights and sounds of the season. For the very first time this year we were able to watch our first ever Candlelight Processional! It was simply stunning and the so worth doing a Candlelight dining package.  This kit is perfect for creating the perfect layout to capture any holiday magical moment.

This wonderful kit contains.... 21 papers, 6 flowers, 6 ornaments, 3 bows, 3 buttons, 4 frames, 7 ribbons, 1 ricrac, 1 string, 1 hanger ribbon, 2 sets of stitching, 3 flairs, 2 candles, an angel, a flourish, a berry pick, holly, a leaf stem, 2 bead scatters, a sparkle trail, 2 lighting effects, a sparkle border, 2 trees, a wreath, a tag, a word tag, 2 music elements, a sparkle element, 8 carolers and 3 alphas. Just check it out...

Do you see those amazing Christmas carolers and those wonderful snowflakes? To make your designing easier she has also created these great premades!  There are a must have to make your designers quick and easy.

The best deal is she is offering a bundle for only $10.00!!  You will get the entire kit, paper stacks, wordarts, and page starters.  I just love deals at Christmas time!

Here is a little inspiration from me.  My first layout was from our very first Candlelight Processional we attended on November 23, 2012.  Mrs. Geena Davis was our guest reader and she did wonderful but the chorus and orchestra gave me chill bumps throughout the entire show.  All I can say is WOW!!

My second layout is from our visit with Santa Claus in downtown Disney.  It was so funny as Santa asked John Wesley what he wanted for Christmas Santa made him raise his hand and take the Santa Pledge... He could not call or text girls and girls could not call or text him.  It was so funny.  John Wesley told me later that was not going to work...haha!

My last layout I wanted to do something totally unexpected but found this kit to be totally perfect for...Periwinkle!  The blues and snowflakes were ideal!!

So don't forget to stop by Natalie's Place Designs to pick up this wonderful holiday kit...Aglow!  You also need to stop by the rest of the creative team, MJ-AJ Designs and Lisa Campbell Designs, as they have some wonderful freebies!  I thought I would share my wordart from Periwinkle.

MouseScrappers Weekly Challenge

Hey everybody just wanted to let you know that I'm hosting a weekly challenge over at MouseScrappers from October 3rd through October 9th!

I don’t know about some of you but when I create a layout I have to use a template. My brain doesn’t work on “create your own” mode so one of the things I like to do is take a template and make it my own. So, for my challenge you MUST use a template and you MUST modify it in some way.

For full details go to MouseScrappers Weekly Challenge #154 thread... HERE

To make it easier I wanted to provide to you a couple links to two of my favorite designers of free templates.

One has a Template Saturday and the other has a Template Tuesday.

First is Linda from MJ-AJ Designs. She is wonderful and I have used her templates over and over again…literally! She has a terrific Template Saturday blog post that I look forward to each week.  Here is her link… MJ-AJ Designs

Second is Megan from Designs by Megan Turnidge. She has lots of freebie templates that are great for creating that perfect layout. She has a terrific Template Tuesday blog post that you can find here… Megan Turnidge Designs and her facebook page has freebies too!! Click HERE to go to her facebook page.

Here are my examples. First I used two of Linda’s (MJ-AJ Designs) templates to create my Castaway Cay layout from our recent cruise. I used template #64 and then used her MouseScrappers 2 template.

I liked the photo layout on the first template but I needed them to be horizontal rather than vertical so I rotated it right. I liked the background papers on the MouseScrappers 2 template so I grabbed those layers and dragged it onto my working template. I combined the two and deleted some of the extra paper strips I didn’t need and tahdah!!! Now I have the perfect template to meet my needs. Here is my completed layout...

My second layout I used Megan Turnidge Designs Tuesday template week 26. I really liked all the star clusters and the film strip is what drew me in to the template. I simply enlarged the entire cluster and then dragged it down so I could use my large photo on top.

Here is my result...
