MyMemories April Blog Train

 

Time to ride the blog train...whoo whoo!

Join the designers at MyMemories on this month's blog train!

Here is the color palette used to create April's beautiful kits!

You will be directed to each designers store at the MyMemories site. If you have not already done so, you will need to sign up for an account (note: this is a one time sign up and no purchase is necessary).

There is a special link to each designers gift that must be obtained from each designer. That link will take you to their store and their gift.

The new process is:

1. Visit each designer’s blog or FB posting for their preview & special link

2. Click on the link provided you will then be taken to their MyMemories store

3. Place their gift in your shopping cart

4. Check out when you have all the gifts collected

Free Weekly Kit by Featured Designer: Scraps N Pieces

************************************CORRECTION******************************** Our deepest apologies for the incorrect information about the Free Weekly Kit that was sent out this morning.  The Free Weekly Kit is NOT The Great Outdoors.  The correct Free Weekly Kit is Fresh As Springtime.  Please see the corrected information below. **********************************************************************************

Let’s welcome Lori & Heidi from Scraps N Pieces as this week’s Featured Designers!

Layout from The Great Outdoors

Q&A With Lori and Heidi Heidi If you could own ANY animal as a pet, what would it be? A Doodle Dog Your favorite toy as a child was? My Mandy Doll What is the farthest you have ever traveled from home? Georgia What is your favorite thing to do to relax? Scrapbooking or designing  Who is a very special person in your life? My Dad Lori: What is the BEST meal you have ever eaten? Toss up between a little Mexican restaurant in Cuba, New Mexico on my sister trip with Heidi 2 years ago or Hell’s Kitchen on our sister trip this last year. What is the biggest life lesson you have learned? You have to just be kind and let people make their own choices and decisions even if it isn’t what I think may be best for them.   What is the farthest you have ever traveled from home? Not sure which is further – Yukon, Alaska, or the Bahamas, both about the same distance away. What is your favorite book? This changes year by year, but my favorite so far is probably “Before We Were Yours”  It’s a hard choice because I read a lot. What is the most unusual thing you've ever eaten? I’m not super daring when it comes to eating, so probably Ceviche. To finish off we would love to share some of Lori and Heidi’s favorite layouts:

Scrapping from A to Z with Kathryn Estry

Hi!  I'm Kathryn, and I design for My Memories.  I love bringing scrapping ideas to you in my scrap series, From A to Z!  It's time for a new letter and a new topic.  

First let me remind you to post your layouts in my matching Challenge Thread, Scrapping with Kathryn from A to Z. Everyone who posts a layout in this month's thread will receive from me the prize I have posted with this month's challenge.  To make it extra sweet, your layout can be about anything I've shown you in ANY of my A to Z challenges! 

Now, on to today's topic!  I just asked my sweet hubby, Robert, for an idea for J, and he suggested a kit about us, so 

K is for ...

Kangaroos and Koalas!

My Outback kit gives you all you need to use these interesting animals on your pages.

Enjoy these pretty pages by my talented Creative Team.

Thank you, Ladies!

Let me remind you to head over to my A to Z Challenge, check out the prize for this month.  I challenge you to make a page with either a kangaroo or a koala or both!  I can't wait to see your pages!

  

DYL: Serendipity Collection with Diane, ADB Designs

 

Serendipity is about the joy of the unexpected, the luck of finding just what you desire, but weren't looking for. As we move into the Spring Season, plants and flowers will wake up and birth and renewal are all around us.

ADB Designs collection Serendipity will allow you to scrap your Spring surprises and joy with beautiful watercolors of chocolate, khaki, lilac, orange, periwinkle, pink and turquoise. The elements are delightful: sweet baby animals, birds and insects you'd find this time of year, plenty of ribbons and bows, flowers and foliage as well as word strips, journalers, frames and so much more.

#184 Question/Scrapbooking Prompt(s)

• Scrap a favorite Springtime moment in your life.
• Scrap a page of children playing outdoors in Spring.
• Scrap a page about your favorite Springtime flower.
• Scrap a page about your favorite Springtime activity.

These prompts are ideas to help you get started. I also have a gift for you to help speed your page completion. With this stunning cluster (contributed by my amazing Creative Team Member. Maureen) you can finish a page quickly. 

Be sure to keep scrolling for information about additional beautiful gifts from this collection!
