I Challenge You!

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009

Hi everyone! Trina here with another installment of the ‘Flip Flop’ Challenge!

This time, we’re ‘flip-flopping’ Linz’ “Lucky Stars” layout using Amanda’s new kit Lucky (from her NSD grab bag), isn’t it gorgeous? Click on it to leave her some love!

So how does a “Flip Flop” work? Take the above layout, flip it sideways, flop it upside down, or leave it the way it is, then scraplift it!

When you do, post a link to your page in the comments, and you could win a gift certificate to Amanda’s store (providing you use mainly her goodies in creating your lift, of course!). Deadline to post your link is June 9th, when I’ll be back with a winner!

Here is my ‘Flip Flop’ of Linz’ page, also using Lucky

And here is some more inspiration from the CT!

So get scrapping! Can’t wait to see your lifts.

Check back soon to find a June desktop freebie!

What has the CT been up to?

Thursday, May 7th, 2009

Trina here to bring you some of the gorgeous pages the CT girls have been doing lately. This is such a creative CT, I’m so glad to be a part of it and get all this inspiration. Hopefully you have seen some of these layouts around digi-land and they have inspired you as much as they have inspired me! I started out with 25 layouts to post here, but I figured I should narrow that down.

So without further ado, here is the gorgeousness using Amanda’s products. All of the pages are linked to their Scrap Orchard Gallery so you can see full credits and give them some love!

“ Sweet Treat” by Sara, using With a Cherry on Top.

“So Sweet” by Aly, also using With a Cherry on Top.

”Pigtails” by Trina (hey, that’s me!), using With a Cherry on Top and Short and Stout.

“Lashes” by Janie, using Grape Soda and Sunshine.

“Out of this World” by Leslie, using To Infinity.

“Lucky Stars” by Linz, using the NSD grab bag.

“Sweet Cupcake” by Jaedyn, using With A Cherry On Top, Give It To Me Straight and Grape Soda and Sunshine.

“C’mon Daddy” by Linz, using I Sea.

“Smile” by Traci, using the NSD grab bag.

“ Sweet Baby Lil” by Christine, using With a Cherry on Top.

Make sure to leave some love on your favorites!
