Fave Sandal and Quickpage Freebie

Hi all,

Recently I bought a new sandal for my daughter and she simply fell in love with it. She refused to wear other sandals/shoes if she sees it. I find it quite funny and wanted to scrap about it, of course. I wanted to use a kit that has the color of the sandal and rummage through my stash. The kit I found was A+ Designs' She's All That. So I made my layout and somehow also created a quickpage freebie with it. So take a look at this gorgeous kit and the sandal layout I made, and don't forget to pick up the freebie at A+ Designs' Blog.

Crystal's Creations: Nautica

Hi all, I would like to introduce to you all Crystal's Creations kit: Nautica.

 

 My layout
Ok, the photos are from a long long long time ago but honestly I don't have too many beach-ocean photos. It's not that I don't love going to the beach, but it was a bit too much a nuisance to bring camera as all of us want to take a dip in the ocean and no one wants to watch all our stuff.


Here is a brag book set freebie that I created from the kit. Click on the image preview to download.

Following the tips I added Color Burn, Stroke, and Outer Glow to the text. The tips could also be used for alphas. I added stroke and outer glow to the alpha. It definitely made my journal more readable.

New Kit by Crystal's Creations: Acid Berry Pop

Crystal's Creations has released a new kit to welcome summer: Acid Berry Pop. I especially loves the color and bubbles element in the kit. The color is not typical summery color (yellow, brown, orange, etc.) but takes on a more popsicle color but still it is very summery.

To celebrate new releases, we must of course, have a FREEBIE. Scroll down below to download the Pre-deco paper freebie.
