Collaboration Release and Template Challenge

Good day everyone!
I hope everyone is having a great Thursday so far as my time with my DH has been great.  Though it hasn't been really relaxing, we have gotten a lot done around the house such as new hardwood floors in my living room and a sliding glass door to my deck (the other door had been leaking and rotting). 
Enough of that, I am sure you are excited about seeing the new collaboration kit that I did with Crystal of Crystals Creations.  It is called "Miles of Smiles" and is perfect for any boy or girl who you have photos of at the dentist or loosing their teeth.  It is filled with shades of green, pink, orange, purple and blue.  It contains 20 different and unique papers, 43+ elements and 6 wordarts.  This weekend only it will be on sale for 30% off so make sure to grab this weekend for the best deal!

Our wonderful Creative Team Members have made some beautiful layouts with the kit to show you what you can get and to inspire you!

Now if you pick up the kit, I am hosting the Designer Template Challenge this week and you can pick up the template and the collaboration to enter the challenge.  I am going to award one layout (randomly choosen of course) a $5.00 gift certificate to my shop.  So why not pick everything up and enter to win?!?!?!

This is what my wonderful creative team member Jennifer did with my "Playing for Keeps" kit and the challenge template.

More about the Designer Contest and a Freebie

Goodday!

As some of you know that I have entered the STS Designer Contest, below is my first weeks entry called "Monster Crossing". I am hoping to make it to the end but don't necessarily need to win.... these contests to me are to learn more and recieve more inspiration for my regular designs. I have created a QP from the kit for you to see how it could be used. I hope you like it and that you will be back for the next entry shortly.

Hi there and welcome to my first challenge of the New Year! I thought that since everyone is trying to finish up their 2010 books I would help out by offering a template challenge that covered the entire year. This template can be used as the template or as a sketch and comes in PSD/PNG formats so that everyone can participate whether digital or hybrid. You will have a week to pick up the template for free here and I will give you 2 weeks to finish and post your layout to the gallery here. I will randomly select one person to win a $5.00 gift certificate to my shop.
So go pick up the template..... and lets play!!!

Here is some inspiration for you from my CT

This month is all about being blessed.... and we are all that just for being able to breath each day on this earth. Below you will read what the challenge is all about (and please note that you do not have to have a song in your layout, the songs are just supposed to be inspiration if you need it) as well as my kit I made for the challenge and some wonderful inspiration from my creative team that I am slowly forming. Oh yeah.... if you go down far enough you will find a little freebie I made using my kit for you. If you want to join the challenge go here, and post your layout here in the gallery.

As we approach the holiday season, we are reminded of all that we have to be thankful for. God pours out his on those who him. Not only have we received eternal life through Christ, but everyday we experience his and .

That the of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. -Galatians 3:14

When the ground soaks up the falling rain and bears a good crop for the farmer, it has God’s . -Hebrews 6:7

Surely you have granted him unending and made him glad with the joy of your presence. -Psalm 21:6

Is there a song that reminds you of all the in your life? Maybe a song of thanksgiving for all that God has done? I hope you will join us this month in creating a layout inspired by your favorite songs. Below are a few songs I thought fit this topic, but feel free to share any song that you feel drawn too.

Octobers Sweet Sweet Song Challenge at Faith Sisters

My Sweet, Sweet Song- Lay It Down

What burdens are you carrying through life? Maybe your load consists of a large single burden that you are so crushed under you don‘t know if you can even take a step. Maybe it is made of many small burdens that you really haven’t come to realize you are carrying until the weight of them added together starts to cause you to become weary and fatigued. There is great news for those of us who are weary and burdened! The weight can be lifted off our shoulders if we give it over to God. At the foot of the cross, we can lay it down.

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." -Matthew 11:28-30

Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens. Our God is a God who saves; from the Sovereign LORD comes escape from death. -Psalm 68 19-20

Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, -Philippians 3 12-13

Is there a song that reminds you to lay it down? Whatever it is that you are carrying its not to heavy, to big, for God. I hope you will join us this month in creating a layout inspired by your favorite songs. Below are a few songs I thought fit this topic, but feel free to share any song that you feel drawn too.

Give It All Away- Aaron Shust
Let Go- Grey Holiday
Let It Roll- Superchick

Here are the Designer Kit made for this challenge... and freebies as well.

Wow! So much going on and so many freebies

Hi everyone!

September has started off to be a very busy month. I have the birthday celebration going on over at Faith Sisters, I have a new kit to go with the Sweet Sweet Song Challenge at Faith Sister and the Designer Contest over at The Studio has also started. I hope everyone has gotten on the train for "The Blog Train" this month, if not, please scroll down and ride that train. You wont be sorry.

Ok today....You need to swing by Faith Sisters Forum and participate in the wonderful challenges going on. You have until the end of today to get your entries in so that you can win some fabulous prizes. Below is from my challenge, all you have to do is pick up the mini, use everything in one layout and post it... couldnt be easier.

Get it here

Now the Sweet Sweet Song Challenge has also started which I made a kit for as well as a freebie quick page..... here is what the challenge is about this month.

Jesus is often referred to as “Teacher” in scripture. He calls himself “Teacher“. His followers and even his enemies called him the same. As the school year begins in the much of the U.S., we are reminded to learn and follow the master teacher. He is the one who can show us how to lead, serve and . As we face problems and difficult decisions in our lives, we should look to the teaching of God to help us.
He replied, "Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, 'The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.' " - Matthew 26:18

He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him." -John 3:2

They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians. "Teacher," they said, "we know you are a man of integrity and that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You aren't swayed by men, because you pay no attention to who they are. -Matthew 22:16

Is there a song that helps you to see God as our teacher or is there a song that brought to light a calling God had for you? No matter the topic (career, family, money, etc.) He is the ultimate authority. I hope you will join us this month in creating a layout inspired by your favorite songs. Below are a few songs I thought fit this topic, but feel free to share any song that you feel drawn too.

Lead Me- Sanctus Real
Begin With Me- Point Of Grace
In The Blink Of An Eye- MercyMe

Here is my kit I made using the colors and theme

Finally the competition has started over at The Studio for the next best designers. This year they have given each designer a number so that they will be voted on by merit and not popularity. I am one of the designers in the competition so I would love your vote but you have to figure out which one I am seeing we are all "secret squirrels" for the month. Below are just a few of the freebies you can pick up this week.... and there should be a total of 52 by the time voting starts because the deadline is tomorrow. (Oh and mine may or may not be shown below.... how fun is this!!!)
