Thursday with Valerigail 1/22/09

Happy Thursday everyone!!

I've got a new strategy today. ;) I've done the begging, now I'm going to seriously tempt you!

There are only 2 more days to link up layouts for the Gift Card drawing to Miss Mint's store!! Come on everyone!!! You don't want to miss out on the chance to win this!! Her stuff is like Super Awesome!! The more you link up, the better your chance of being the winner!!! I could so go for a $10 shopping spree at PepperMint Creative. that would completely make my day!! What would I get? Oh, let me see... Probably Mr Fix it element pack and paper pack. But then there is Patchwork Princess, I've wanted that for some time now! hmmm... I've also been drooling over Skater Boy, which is like totally cool! It would make perfect layouts for my teenage son! She also has alot of great EZ elements that I would totally enjoy, because I love clipping and masking. Just to have these shapes would be awesome! She also has 6 whole pages of different alphas to chose from!!! Who can't have enough alphas???? Not me!! Come on, take a look around her store and decide if you want to give up this great chance!!! All it takes is a link. Just one, or two or ten.. LOL. LINK US UP!!! The more you link, the better your chance!

:) Enjoy your time at Peppermint Creative looking around. I'll wait for ya here!


You had fun, didn't you? Told you she has amazing stuff!!

So, on to the layouts of the day!

First up is a Gorgeous layout found at DST...

Picking flowers
by Mag Henrey

I think this is absolutely stunning! It should be framed and hanging on a wall where everyone can see it. Her blending is Gorgeous, as is her photo! Framing the picture with more flowers was the perfect touch, and I love those little clouds up in the right corner too. Everything about this layout just totally grabs my attention. Its Beautiful! Please, stop by her page and leave her some very well deserved love for this wonderful layout!

Next up is another pic from Layout Lovin', that I thought was just adorable!!

Brothers
by Jules

I really like the clean lines of her paper strips and how she's placed her photos. The title tags are adorable, and I totally love the initial tag held on by the ribbon string. Her color choices are perfect, as is her shadowing and layering. I really like that her layout isn't all cluttered up, but holds just the right amount of balance. I have a hard time achieving that myself, so I totally admire it in others works. Oh, and Her little boys are super cute, too!! Please everyone, stop by her page and leave her some love for this great layout!

While I was at Peppermint Creative drooling over all the great products I would buy if I could win the Gift card, I hopped into the Gallery. I saw this layout and just had to feature it today. It is so cute!!

Hungry
by Jlady11

I told you it was cute!! I got to giggling when I saw it, because every single one of my kids tried to eat their daddy's nose! :) I love the simplicity to her layout, and how she has each picture just a little tilted. The colors are perfect, drawing your eyes straight to the pictures, where they should be. I just totally love everything about this layout! Please, stop by her page, at Peppermint Creative's Gallery, and leave her some Genuine love!

And that is it for me today... I'm gonna hop back over to Peppermint Creative and continue my dream shopping... you all should too, AFTER you link us up a layout or two... or five! ;) I can dream, right? Might as well dream big!

Live, Love, Laugh.... And Scrap often!!
