Designer's Apprentice - Challenge #4

Hi everybody!! Another challenge for the Designer Apprentice contest!! I am having fun and learning SOOOOO much! Win or lose - it was totally worth it for the experience!!

This week's challenge was:

• Make 10 papers
• 3 solids
  
• 7 patterns
• 3 patterns can use CU patterns, but had to be modified
• the other 4 patterns couldn't use any CU patterns - had to be my own patterns
• it had to be a stand alone paper packet - so I couldn't use the same pallet I had been using so far in the contest (and I was hoping everybody would get a mega kit! LOL)

So - here is my entry:


You must go over to the DigiScrap Addicts gallery to grab it! You can get it HERE.

And yes - I made you a freebie! Not totally sure this alpha will match the "theme" of the kit, but colorwise it does, so I hope you like it anyway!

You can grab the freebie HERE or by clicking on the image above.

And that's it for today - there's ONE more designer's apprentice challenge! Can't wait to find out what it is!

Designer's Apprentice - Challenge 3

Hello everybody! Thanks for taking the time to stop by my blog!! Challenge 3 for Designer's Apprentice was to make 3, yes I said THREE, alphabets that coordinate with the Mini Kit from Challenge 1. Now, I also made matching papers for Challenge 2, so if you have been collecting all the pieces, you will have a MEGA kit by the time we're done! (I think anyway...LOL)

Here's the preview for the three of them...keep scrolling and you will see the individual previews.


Love this orange one - just a bit of shine and made from one the papers in my matching Paper Pack.



White Denim - universal and should show up nicely against your layouts!! I think you will reach for this one again and again.



My personal favorite!! This is two unicase alphabets. The blue set has the flowers attached already. The khaki set does not, but I have included two matching flowers should you want to make them flowered!!



So head on over to DSA and you can pick these up HERE.

I also made an extra for those of you to take the time to come to my blog. You can get the freebie by clicking on the picture or CLICK HERE.

This one is just lowercase and kind of looks like felt - which I thought was great with the denim.

So be sure to run over to Digiscrap Addicts to get the first three!!

P.S. Just in case you didn't get the kit and paper pack yet, you can find the kit HERE and the paper pack HERE.

Thanks for stopping by!! ENJOY!!!!!!

Designer's Apprentice

Not sure how many of you know this - but I have been participating in the Designer's Apprentice contest over at DigiScrap Addicts!! I am really enjoying myself and learning a LOT!!!

Here's what has gone on so far...

Challenge 1 was to create a mini kit. I had to extract two items to use as elements. The two items I extracted were the denim pockets. If you go HERE, you can download the kit. Here's the preview:




Challenge 2 was to create a mini pack of papers, without using Commercial Use textures. Here is what I came up with:



You can download the Paper Add On HERE.


Last, I actually created an extra paper - I got a little carried away. You can have the extra paper and you can download this 7th paper HERE.

About kaBoks....

kaBoks is a new online store with digital/hybrid products. The Grand Opening is on the 30^th of September, and by that time we will be needing quite a few crafters on our creative team.

the kaBoks philosophy:

The whole idea behind kaBoks is that anything is allowed. We want to break down the lines between the different types of scrapbooking. kaBoks will be a store that will create a bridge between traditional and digital scrapbooking. We also want to offer a wide range of products that will target different religions, ethnicities and languages. We ´ll also be adding a special department in our store called "kiddy scrap". I think it will be fun for all of us to be able to play with some less "serious" products aimed at crafting for kids!
