New Release...Cafe au Lait

It's Friday, which means it's time for a new release. How about one for those of us addicted to what I lovingly refer to as the "elixir of life" aka coffee? Amber's given us a beautiful, caffeinated mini kit for this week's release. Check it out.

Don't think that it's only for coffee-themed layouts, though. There are plenty of "generic" elements and the papers are just gorgeous and can be used for a ton of different pages. Take a look at some of the Precious Gem's inspiration:

This kit is available at both of Amber's stores--MScraps.com and The Studio.

Have a wonderful, scrappy, happy weekend, everyone.

Peace and blessings,

iNSD Releases!

Happy iNSD weekend, everyone! I've got lots of gorgeous to show off, so let's get started.

This new kit from Amber is called "Genuine" and it is perfect for all kinds of pages about being yourself, plus there is a great set of templates that should help give you a jump start to those pages.

And a little creative team inspiration...

Next up is a kit just in time for Mother's Day called "A Mother's Arms". It will work beautifully for sentimental pages about all those special ladies in your life.

And more inspiration...

Amber has added a few more pieces to her ongoing, year-long P1440 collection. We've got the May kit as well as a set of gingham papers and journal tags. The tags are in English, German, Spanish and French. Can we get any more cosmopolitan LOL?

Inspiration from Deanna...

And lastly, do not miss out on this HUGE set of templates available as a grab bag for a LOW price!

Phew! That's a lot of great stuff, isn't it? Pop on over to Amber's stores at MScraps and at the Studio during the iNSD weekend activities. These kits and deals are available at both store, as well as RAKs and giveaways, so make sure you get in on all the fun.

Have a fantastic weekend!

Peace and blessings,

Digital Scrapbook Studio - CELEBRATE Blog Hop

Happy April everyone!  I had some fun today with April Fool's he he.  We told our 13 year old to pack up his XBOX 360 and all of his games because we had a buyer for them (he'd been a bit rebellious this week so he was sure we were serious!)  -- just before he almost passed out we fessed up.  Our daughter had a sleepover last night and being pretty good friends with her mom, when she came to pick her up, we told her the girls snuck out.  You should have seen her face, then when we let her know she'd been fooled, we all lost it!  She was going to go home and do the same thing to her husband.  I'm sure someone will try to get me yet today but I will be on guard!

On another note, Toiny, the owner of Digital Scrapbooking Studio is celebrating 3 years today as the owner.  I could not be happier.  During my time in the past few years knowing Toiny, she has become a wonderful friend.of mine and I just absolutely love so many things about her.  From a business stand point, Toiny is an amazing store owner and boss lady and she always thinks of the customer, the scrapper first.  She is always thinking of new and fresh ways to serve the Digiscrap community.  Did I say I just love her? :)

SO... we the designers are having a blog hop today and here is my part!  I hope you enjoy as you travel from blog to blog to collect your pieces, however make sure to stop by the Studio today and enjoy 50% off the entire store, today only!  AND if you spend just $5.00 you will get THIS KIT for free!!

and here is your Celebrate freebie!  Image is linked:
