CT Layouts of the Week - 9 Jan 2016

I've got another line up of fabulous kits this week, and the layouts that I did using them. When I first started digi-scrapping, I relied a lot on the layouts done by CT members for inspiration. So I hope that these layouts that I've done help to inspire you and get those creative juices flowing in some small little way. :)

Inside Pixels

Here's a layout I did using Inside Pixels' A Stronger Me kit. I think it's really cool that this kit is about documenting your exercise goals and that is something that I should start doing (it's one of my goals for 2016). For now, I used it to document our family's recent cycling adventure, where we discovered a new cycling route at East Coast Park and were rewarded with an awesome view of Singapore's skyline!

The collection also includes a set of templates, which I used to scrap our trip to watch Real Madrid! Inside Pixels also has a great soccer kit Game On: Soccer which I used for this layout.

A Stronger Me is available at The Digital Press.







Created by Jill

This week, Jill has a new release called Great Things Ahead. I love the artsy papers in this kit and the colours are just so deliciously dreamy. For the layout that I did, I tried to experiment with more blending and extracting, using the photos I took on my kayaking adventure with the seals during my New Zealand trip. I just love Jill's artsy papers, the big photo that I chose as my background just blended so seamlessly with the paper.

Great Things Ahead is available at The Digi Chick and Pickle Berry Pop.






Traci Reed

The kit from Traci this week is all about Family Game Night. It's such a fun and colorful kit, and really versatile too. I especially love the board game paper! Even though Aly is still too young to play board games, I used the kit to scrap a layout of the games that our family plays!

Family Game Night is available at Sweet Shoppe Designs.

CT Layouts of the Week - 2 Jan 2016

Happy New Year everyone! My first blog post of 2016! I'll be trying to do a more regular weekly feature of the CT layouts that I've done for the past week.

Traci Reed Design 

First up, I'm so excited to be part of Traci Reed Design's Hawt Mama Team for 2016! I still can't quite believe that it is really happening! Have been a fan of Traci's designs since I started digi-scrapping, I love her fun and really unique designs. You can check out the rest of the 2016 Hawt Mamas here.

Here's the first layout that I did as a Hawt Mama, using the All Year Round: Resolutions by Traci Reed and Jady Day Studio. This kit is perfect for scrapping those goals and new year resolutions. I'm don't usually set new year resolutions, but with a kit like this, who can resist? I love the bright colours and cute journal cards which you can easily write down your goals! The kit is available at Sweet Shoppe Designs.






Created by Jill

Jill had 2 new kits this week, and both of them are gorgeous as usual.

Here's the layouts that I did using the Quiet Moments collection. I did a "Then & Now" layout for one of them. Aly and I were looking through my scrapbook album that I did for her first year and we came across this photo of her when she was barely 2 months old, taking a nap on Daddy's tummy. We thought it would be fun to recreate this photo now! Quiet Moments is available at The Digi Chick and Pickle Berry Pop.






And here's the layouts that I did for another gorgeous kit These are My Dreams for You. And what I love about Jill's kits is that you can create both traditional and more artsy layout from the same kit, as what I've done here. These are My Dreams for You can also be found at The Digi Chick and Pickle Berry Pop.






And finally, this is not a new release but some of Jill's kits will be retiring from her stores, so she's having a retiring sale which will run till January 10.

One of the kits is Freaky Deaky and here's a layout I did using this really fun kit. Check out the sale at The Digi Chick and Pickle Berry Pop.
