Gallery Standout

Happy Friday!!! It's Rebecca aka MamaBee here today with Gallery Standouts. This is my favorite blog topic... I grab a cup of coffee and sit at the computer, oohing and ahhing at the amazing layouts using Christy's designs. So, lets see some of the pages that just stopped me in my tracks!

First up is... Aggie Aviso's Choice Outfit... how cute is this? You just have to chuckle at her little girl decked out in movie star shades and her box of prized possessions!

Kit used... Always and Forever - Christy Lyle, Sweet Shoppe Designs



Next is Sharon Kay's Family Fun Night - Careers... Oh, does this take me back to my childhood... I would bug my parents to play this game until they wished they did give my a sibling to play with!

Kit used... Family Game Night - Christy Lyle and Kristin Cronin-Barrow, Sweet Shoppe Designs



The the final one for this post is... Jill (alien22xx)'s 10 things I've never told you... not only is the journaling touching for her sweetie, the page is fabulous!

Kit used... All in the Family - Christy Lyle and Krystal Hartley, Sweet Shoppe Designs



Will see you next time... and keep scrapping those layouts using the fabulous Christy's kits and you too could be a feature on Gallery Standouts!!

Looking for some Inspiration!?!?!

Doesn't it seem like at this time every year your scrapping MoJo seems to take a vacation!?!?! Between holiday shopping, decorating, celebrating, baking and eating we just can't seem to muster up the moxie we need to scrap a page.....let alone all those scrappy gifts you want to give!!! Template are nice but even they can be quite restricting, thus causing you even more stress while trying to scrap!!! Well I'm here to give you a little bit of inspiration on this fine, but snowy (at least for me here in PA) December morning!!! The kind of inspiration that let's YOU decide what and how you want to scrap!!



I found this ad at The Children's Place and I just loved the colors and the enthusiasm of the kids in the ad!! So I used that to inspire me and I asked a few of my fellow CT members to let it inspire them too!!! Here is what we came up with!!!

Rebecca was inspired by the photos and circles.


Jennifer was inspired by the big words and all that lovely white.


I was inspired by the title place meant and the pretty pastel colors!!!


So in the coming days when you find you have a few spare moments to scrap but can't seem to find your Mojo....take a stroll around the web or flip through a magazine or take a look out your window and be INSPIRED!!!

December Desktop Freebie!!!

Happy December everyone! Sprauncey1 (Kim) here with a little way to decorate your computer for this fun and festive month! As much as I know I'm going to be busy and will go a million different miles a minute all month long, I love it all the same. and I LOVE LOVE LOVE this kit by Christy called Countdown to Christmas because it is so fun and festive!
I just loved the ornaments in it, and since I am still in the middle of putting up my tree with my boys, I guess I have them on the brain today! So here's the little desktop I made using this kit. Just plop your pics in behind it and voila! A very merry computer!
