My Scraps Birthday Blog Hop!!

Welcome to the party!!!!

It's My Scraps and More's  1st birthday and we are so happy to have you joining us for our Birthday Party Blog Hop!!

Lets party scrappy style. Normally the guests brings presents to the party but we want to share the fun by doing things a bit backwards and providing gifts for YOU. For a chance at the big gift, we have provided a sketch for you to work with. You will also need to check out all the design team members blogs and leave them some love. Each of them has a party favor for you to collect. Use the sketch and 3 of the party favors on a LO for your chance to win the birthday gift. After you have visited each blog and created your layout, please share your creation with us by linking your LO up back here.  Our talented design team member, Lisa. has created this wonderful sketch for you to work with.

I used this collection for my layout of my daughter celebrating her 17th birthday! I turned the sketch on it's side so I could use this vertical photo. The party favor that you are collecting from me are SCALLOPS ! I used my circle punch to create them and ran them down the length of my page.






If you become a follower of this blog and "like" us on Facebook, let me know in the comments and you will go into an additional drawing for a RAK from me! Another fun way to celebrate our birthday is with a SALE!! Now through the duration of the hop (Tuesday, April 17th), use code BBHOP412 and save 30% off your order!

I Challenge You ...

Good morning everyone! It is Friday the 13th! AAAAGH! Are you hiding out or like me consider the number thirteen really quite lucky? You see my youngest daughter was born in room thirteen so that is actually a good number around here. So if you are hiding out or feeling lucky how about some manufacturer challenges to try?

Lily Bee

A sketch challenge is posted right now on the Lily Bee blog that I cannot wait to try! And with the new collections in the store - Buttercup and Double Dutch - you have some terrific products to try it with!
Here is the sketch -


October Afternoon

A sketch challenge is posted right now at the October Afternoon blog that has a fun sunburst element on it! And with all of this October Afternoon and with the arrival of the new Sasparilla collection in the store I know there is some product to inspire you to try it!

Jillibean Soup

A sketch challenge is up right now at the Jillibean Soup blog that is a multiphoto layout that has got my wheels spinning! In the store there are the brand new collections - Coconut Lime Soup, Game Day Chili, Neopolitan Bean Bisque Soup, and Southern Chicken Dumpling Soup - so plenty of themes to get the creative juices flowing!

Note to Self

Good Morning, Tracy here to share with you a collection I had been anxiously awaiting since I first saw the previews of it, Echo Parks Note To Self.  I was not disappointed when I finally got it in my hands.  These papers are fabulous and I love all the fun tags and large sticker sheet it comes with.  

  
Tomorrow is the big day, starting at 6 pm EST we will kick off our Happy Birthday Blog Hop to celebrate My Scraps and More 1st birthday.  Hope you will join in on the fun!

Make It Happen!

Good morning and happy Wednesday! Lisa here to share a layout I made using the Jillibean Soup Game Day Chili line from the My Scraps & More Store. This line is fabulous for all your sports photos or it can be used for every day things too.

My layout, Make It Happen, is a layout I lifted from Megan Klauer for the Let's Lift It Crop last month. I used a Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page and added faux stitching to make it "pop" a little.



I would love to see what you do with this line!
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your day with us!

Lime Twist!

Hello my name is Tammy and I am a paper addict! I know many of you can identify, and I just can't stop myself. When I see paper I love - I just have to have it. Well I have great news for you - Tammi always has great sales going on and right now to make room for all the awesome new releases she has marked down some of the other lines she has in the store! I didn't get a chance to buy the MME Lime Twist line when it first came out but when I saw these great prices I grabbed it. Here is one I the LOs I did with it:
Don't forget to stop by the forum and wish her and My Scraps and More a happy 1st birthday and join us this weekend for a Birthday Blog Hop. Have a great week!
