Inkin' & Thinkin'

Car Hop Diner from Scraps N' Pieces

I love the 50's. The diners, listening to a juke box and there's nothing like an "ice cream soda with a cherry on top". So in honor of the 50's Scraps N' Pieces has designed a kit for you. The fun and bright colors along with the unique elements are perfect for your layouts. You can get this kit for only $3.00 the first week, plus you get this fun set of swiss dot papers for free with your download the first week also.

World Traveler - New Destinations from Keystone Scraps & A Sale!

Keystone Scraps has 3 new additions to her World Traveler series this week, and I'm so excited about them! To celebrate, all the destinations and various other add-ons are on sale for 30% off this week... PLUS if you are just starting your World Traveler Collection, you can grab the original kits (both Paula's, and also mine) for 50% off this week! If you are wondering what all the hub-bub is about... here's a little background! About this time last year, Paula & I created a 2 kit collab based on a vintage travel theme. In addition, Paula made an add-on for London and New York City as well. As time went by, she has made more add-ons for other popular destinations. These 'Destination add-ons' are almost full kit sized, but they have mostly all theme elements with very a few basics inspired by the location (such as evergreen branches in the Alaska.) Some of my layouts I will share today, include basic elements (ribbons, fasteners, etc) from the basic kit in addition to the new destinations. Please be sure to check the element listings in the store posts to see exactly what all is included. World Traveler: Alaska, Yellowstone National Park, and Journal Cards.

All 3 pieces are so fun to play with and for recording those amazing trip memories! You can find them at Scraps-N-Pieces, Go Digital, and will be available at My Memories very soon! Would you like a little inspiration? Take a look!

These are the two layouts I made with these new destination kits...

Here's a look at what the rest of Paula's CT made with them...

Don't forget you can also grab my part of the original collab for 50% off through Wednesday!
