In case you’ve been in hiding and hadn’t heard already, ES has been celebrating Collabs this week! There are a bunch of collabs in the New Releases section - kits and template sets. And in the Digi Duos section there is a bunch of stuff on sale. (It won’t be on sale forever, you know, so read fast )
One of the newly released collabs is The Good Life, by Juno Designs and Julie Marie Designs.

Here ’tis:

Isn’t it gorgeous? I love the depth of the colours, especially that purple. And there’s such a variety of elements in it, so it suits different styles of scrapping.
Here’s a layout I made using it:

And here’s one by Scrapmomma3:

I hope you like it as much as I do!

Since Brandy is our featured designer this week, i thought i’d take a minute to highlight a few of her latest offerings available fom the ES store.

The super cuteness of Water Party makes it hard to go past in the store. So many adorable Summery elements suitable for pics by the pool, the beach or even the bath.

And the very latest, Deco Stitches and Deco Glitters which are perfect additions for any layout.

Here are a couple of examples of use from our fabulous gallery:

We asked Brandy our regular questions but, I am only going to show you 2 of her answers!

1. How long have you been digiscrapping and/or degi-designing? I have been scrapping since January 2007 and designing since December 2008.
2. What do you love most about designing? I love seeing layouts in the galleries using my product and knowing that they liked them enough to use them to capture that special moment in their life.

Be sure to check out the Chatter Forum to see the rest of her answers and to ask her some questions of your own!

Happy Scrapping!

I can’t believe June is almost over! It certainly feels like summer in my neighborhood (way too hot for me)! I’m planning to spend some time in the nice cool air conditioning getting some scrappin’ done! There are so many fun challenges to complete before the end of the month and so many fabulous goodies in the store.

But, better yet, Monday 6/29 is going to KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF! That’s right, I’ve seen previews of what’s coming, and I am drooling majorly! It’s Collab Week, and that means our fave designers have teamed up to bring you some spectacular kits! Here’s one sneak peek layout by mrsduke2u that I’m going to share - just adorable!

There will be more sneaks this weekend, so be watching the forum for them! Get your wallet ready, ladies, cuz the goodies are irresistible!

Hello there!  If you haven’t had a chance to check out our ES challenges do it now.  There are awesome challenges each week and our challenge galleries are filling up with fantastic layouts.  I had the pleasure of going through our galleries and picking out 7 layouts to showcase here on the blog.  Don’t forget to stop by and leave some love for a job well done!

First up is a super cute layout for our template challenge.  One Little Monkey was done by azrood.  I absolutely love how she flipped the template and those pictures are just down right adorable.  Look at her awesome shadowing on the leaves too! 

Next up is from our new Inspired By Challenge this week.  Excitement by Danimoy caught my eye.  I love all her layering and how she used this super cute mini kit!  It was perfect for this picture.

The speed scrap is one of my favorite challenges!  Look at Model by lynnirene.  This is a gorgeous layout.  I love how she strategically placed all those little elements around her page, they are perfectly placed.  The little model is adorable too!! 

Next up is from our Surprise Challenge.  Just Play by tennessa is bold and really stood out in the gallery.  I love all the bright colors and layering!  Great job!

Next up is Our Honeymoon by mfallis.  I love her heart felt journaling and how she incorportated a smaller picture to highlight what the journaling was about. 

Little Girl big Smile by starwarsfans is simply beautiful.  Those big eyes and beautiful smile stood out in the Font Gallery.  I love the soft colors she chose for this layout and the splash of green really makes the picture “pop”.  I love how she mixed up the font for the title too.  Great job!

The last layout is from our Photography Challenge.  I love the title work and how she has the string looped through part of it and through other elements too.  The filter she ran on the picture too gives it a bit of an antique look and is perfect for this beach shot.   

If you haven’t had a chance to join in the fun, there is still time!  Come check out our challenges!
