Laurie's Scraps & Designs Blog

I have been on break for the past couple months, and I am finding it hard to come back to designing. My kids are young, and life has taken on a new busy turn. I really wished that I would be able to come back, but I am not finding the time that I would like. So I am soooo very sad to say that I think it is best that I retire. i never thought this day would come, to be honest. To thank you all for all the support you have given me over the last four years, I am having a sale. Get 50% off everything.

I may release a kit from time to time so make sure you are signed up for my newsletter because i will send out a newsletter when I release something new. But for now, let’s just say I am retiring.

I do have one surprise for you though. i have a new kit to release as a grand finale. and can I say that it is a big one, with lots of original elements.

I can not believe it is October already! The summer seamed to FLY by! Bring on the colder weather!

Even though I am taking a break for a few months, I still have a great freebie template for  all you loyal readers and customers! I am so grateful for such wonderful people that I associate with in this community. So if I have not said it enough, I want to say it again…. THANK YOU! You are all so wonderful.

Here is a great little template. It is great for that one photo you really want to focus on. I hope you are able to use it and have fun with it! I want to see the layouts so post links to your layouts right here on this post so we can see them all.

Welcome to another challenge Thursday! Every month, Laurie gives you two new challenges — one template challenge, and one font challenge. Kristin reminded you of the template challenge earlier this month (if you have yet to complete it, check out this post here!), and now I’m here to remind you of the font challenge for September!

This month, Laurie challenged you to use the font “California Rad” on your layouts. If you need to download it (it’s free), you can grab it here. Here is the page that I created using this awesome font and Laurie’s beautiful kit, Let Me Count The Ways (the black bow is from ConGRADulations).

 And here is a closer look at this gorgeous kit.

You still have plenty of time to finish both of the monthly challenges, so get them done! And once you’re done, be sure to link us to your page(s) so we can leave you some love!
