Gallery Standouts | Digital Scrapbooking Inspiration

Hello Everyone! Wow,  do you love the new pin-style gallery at Scrap Orchard? At first I was a little timid because I’d never used a “pin,” but I quickly got the hang of it and I have a few new favorite to share. I’m excited about the GSO’s now, I see so many more layouts in the pin format. It’s sure to give us many ideas for our digital scrapbooking layouts. Let’s get started.

I absolutely adore this layout. My Kitchenaid mixer is actually the metallic (hot pink) pink one, so this really grabbed my attention.

Let me show you Chelle’s Lovin from the Oven, so you can see what a great job enjoyyourpix did. Imagine the fun you could have matching Lovin from the Oven to your kitchen decor.

Next let’s look at Wendy W’s layout, “Pink Pancakes.” Love this fun idea for a princess birthday breakfast. This LO just makes me smile all over. I can see pink adorned little girls giggling through this meal.

Here are the products Wendy used from Chelle’s designs.

Words on Wednesday: Sayings | Digital Scrapbooking Tips

Hi Fellow Scrappers!  Does your family have a favorite saying…maybe it’s a movie quote…or a phrase from an inside joke. Those sayings make great words for your scrapbooks. Sayings… boy, my family has a bunch of them. I can only think of a few of them, but I know we have/had a zillion of ’em.”

  • “Were you born in a barn?” (question asked when someone didn’t shut the entrance door to the house. Usually on Sunday night’s as my Mom & Dad’s. Culprits were usually the grandkids racing out the door to play.)
  • “You make a better door than a window!” (asked when someone crossed in front of the TV and blocked their vision.)
  • “Live or Die. It’s up to you.” (said by Grandma Pitcher when she transplanted something)
  • “Those potatoes are so creamy!” (said to change the subject. Quote from the movie While You Were Sleeping)
  • “That must have happened while I was in the mission field!” (of my father’s 9 children, 5 daughters and 2 son’s have served mission’s for our church! )  Said whenever someone brought up a memory you had no idea what they were talking about. It didn’t have to happen during the actual mission, it could be yesterday, but we would always that. It eventually morphed in “Mission Memory! Also funny because they were actually non-mission memories! LOL
  • Too many accessories clutter an outfit!” (said when commenting about someone’s outfit or jewelry. Quote from the movie Troop Beverly Hills”)
  • “Green means go in Utah!” (said to any driver who doesn’t drive as fast through the intersection as we might have liked.)
  • Stupid Announcer Comment! (said when watching sports and the play by play guys makes an absolutely ridiculously statement!)
  • Chelle’s Dad says, “Because it’s colder in the mountains than in the spring!” I find this one funny because I’ve never heard him say it.
  • Another I remember him saying was “Act, Not React!”

More recently I will say:

  • Dude! Really?
  • Seriously? That’s what your going with!”

Think about the phrases that you and your family use.  Then scrap about it!   Let me show you what the CT Members created (links to the products are in the caption under the photo):

Melissa N. (KSCroppyChic) shared what she found out after polling her friends and family.”I polled my family on what I say most. Come to find out, it was unanimous among the 4 of them. It’s not so much a saying as a word, so I asked my sister, my mom and 2 best friends and again unanimous. I was struggling with this topic for some reason so I decided to go with a word more than a saying, hope it works. On the other hand, I think I need to find something else to say! Seriously! LOL” Here’s her LO.

Mel N (KSCroppyChic) Mel used Apple of my Eye and Fill-Me-In-Bundle

Nee Nee (neenee) She used Ladybug Hugs!

Ophelia (navaja77) She used Rainbow Collection, Oh Snap! & Fill Me In {Marker}

Hope this post gives you lots of great ideas.
Hugs!

Apple Of My Eye Playdate | Digital Scrapbooking Inspiration

Hello Ladies!

Have you seen Chelle’s newest kit? Love it! Love it! Love it! I remember the apple trees in our garden and around the house. I just loved those little tart green apples with salt sprinkled on them. I could eat them one after another. I would have to make myself stop eating them so I didn’t have some ‘natural’ consequences. My grandmother Mon, had a couple of crab apple trees. I think I tried to eat them once, but then we figured out how much more fun it was to stomp on them. Poor Grandma & Grandpa. They got to see all of us kids, but I don’t imagine they enjoyed the squashed apples on the sidewalk. Seems like we got smarter and jumped on the road so we weren’t in trouble. LOL! Let me show Chelle’s barrells of {apple} fun. The Quickies are FWP of the bundle. Hint! Make sure you snap the blog freebie also. I’ve linked them all up for you, just click on the images.

Chelle also created a new Digital Scrapbook Tutorial on Isolated & Selective Color. You can watch it by clicking on the video image.

For our CU friends, we offer CU Crepe. You’ll have to check it out.

Let me show you the absolutely darling inspiration from our Creative Team.
