Funky Playground Layouts

Here are my layouts for Funky Playground this week. If I had the time I would scrap with each designer's new release for the week. But I have to pick and choose the right one for me as I would rather give quality work than quantity. Another reason I've been keeping my CT numbers at minimum with a couple of guest spots here and there.

Alright back to our scheduled programming. First, we are welcoming FPD's November Guest Designer, Trixie Scraps to the store. She has over 30 items in store and I'm sure she'll be adding more through out the month. The product I created with this week is Love of a Lifetime - Value Bundle. Let me tell you this bundle is filled with so much stuff for the price.
A new designer coming over to FPD is LaLi Creations. Welcome to Funky Playground!!! Love what I see already and looking forward to more!!!

Who's ready for the November Playground Collaboration??? It's huge as usual filled with love, life, and thankfulness. For the time being the kit comes with quickpages made by the creative members so go and check it out!

Sorry MIA Last Week

Busy busy last weekend as the kid's Halloween festivities started Friday which was also my 6 year wedding anniversary. Saturday was spent looking for a last minute costume for DH and I. Seriously, not doing that again. And of course, Sunday was Halloween which we spent at hubby's BFF's house an hour away. Now the storm has calm down finally and back here scrapping and blogging.

It is November which brings us only a few weeks before Thanksgiving. I started my 30 Days of Gratitude on my tumblr page. If your interested in reading you can find it here: Simply Random Stuff

This weekend is going to sooooo FUN with National Scrapbook Day on Saturday. So much lined up all around the digi-world. I'm not even sure where to start.
First, FPD is throwing a double celebration! I hope to see lots of peeps over there!

Polka Dot Plum will have a few challenges, chats, freebies starting tomorrow. I made a freebie for the kit the designers made for the weekend. I hope y'all like them. Check the blog all weekend for a list of activities.

Ms. Libby will be busy getting married this Saturday but she does a few things in store on Saturday.

Stop by Elise's Pieces Design store at The Digi Chick for 30% all weekend.

HAVE FUN THIS WEEKEND!!! HAPPY SHOPPING TO ALL!!!

Playing in the Leaves Collaboration

Elise has teamed with Girl Boy Girl Designs by Jen Balding to bring you this awesome collaboration kit that is cute for your fall pictures, playing outside in the cool weather, and much more.

Born 2b Wild :: Libby Weifenbach

Ooops, I didn't get a chance to post yesterday about Libby's new release. Libby and Meg were inspired by a baby nursery set that a scrapper had posted at Sweet Shoppe Designs. It turned out so darling and fun even for non-baby pages. It comes in both a boy version too but I chose to scrap with the girly girl one this time around.

Funky Layouts

New Releases once again at Funky Playground Designs!!! First off I scrapped a layout with Sir Scrapalot's Funky Club Week 8 Mini Kit. Dontcha you just love the rich fall colors and pretty flower elements. If you have yet to subscribe to the Funky Club, go do so now as you will recieve this mini along with all the past contributions for various FPD Designers. As we're quickly coming to the end of 2010 people are on a search for calendar templates of all sorts. Michelle Batton designed these bottom calendar templates as well as many other calendar sizes and style this week. Here's one for you and you can see from my layout how one can create a calendar with just the month. Thank you for stopping by and I'll see in the forums for chit chat, announcements, and of course, the awesome challenges by FPD's Playground Peeps.

Lullaby :: Elise's Pieces Designs

I love watching babies sleep as they're so peaceful and calm. Even now that my children are past the baby stage, I still take the time to watch them sleep and fall into a sweet dream. This week Elise designed a kit for those sweet sleeping pictures but I can see this kit work for other layouts as well as you will see in the store's previews. I present to you, Lullaby by Elise's Pieces Designs only found at The Digi Chick.

Funky Playground New Release Friday

I had the pleasure to work with one of the FPD's New Releases this past week. This week my choice was to create using Donna Duncombe's Precious Moments Bundle. Hubby took several pictures of his best friend with his newborn back in July that needed to scrapped before her baptism in December. I have a couple already and here is another along with Donna's preview of the lovely baby kit!

Spooky :: Elise's Pieces Designs

Halloween is in 2.5 weeks!!! Woohoo!!! I believe we're heading to our friend's house for a party and trick or treating but I keep telling DH it's a Sunday aka school night. I know it will be fun but I don't want to be the party pooper knowing the kid's will wake up grumpy the next morning. I'll just go with it and deal with them when the time comes. The kids are set with costumes but me and DH still looking around. We were thinking Mario and Princess Peach but who knows.

Anyways, here's some pics from last year's Halloween that have yet to be scrapped. DS as a red ninja. Not sure where he got this idea from but I'm guessing it's this youtube video he watched one day. And of course, who doesn't love the Halloween kits coming out this month. I love how Elise kept it simple and not to creepy crawly with traditional color scheme. Dontcha love Mr. Skelly there! :: Layout not linked at the moment ::

3rd Rock from the Sun :: Libby Weifenbach

Who wants to see an out of this world kit releasing Saturday, October 9? Well, here ya go ... a space kit from Libby, 3rd Rock from the Sun. I have to say this kit is one of the best ones I've seen as it focuses more on the solar system with all the planets included and of course all the extras. My layout focuses more on the word art, "I love you to the moon and back!" but in my journaling I write a few little facts about the moon and its distance from earth as well as the book, Guess How Much I Love You which made the quote very popular. Can you see my play on the title? Ya, being a bit silly tonight.

Libby Lou Crew Keepin' Me Busy

I'm back to show you what Libby's created this past Saturday as well as last week since um, life got in the way of blogging. Sometimes I wish this can be done on my iPad when I'm out and about.

Anyways, first up is a versatile cheerleading kit that is made with colors of the rainbow as well as black and white. As you can see I didn't have any cheer pictures to post so I had to do them with our 49ers training camp pics.
Second, we have a Triple Dip with Misty Cato, Krystal Hartley, and Libby Weifenbach called Felicity. This kit reminds me alot of a wedding I went to in the summer as this was their color scheme for the wedding. It's so pretty and I paired the kit with brown mocha tones to go with the brown in the kit.
Last but not least, this template is perfect for month in review type layouts as well as Project 365. I know I couldn't hold myself to take a picture a day so, I went for the activities and funtions, our family had over the month of September. This layout took me some time to finish even with a template but I love love the outcome.
That's it folks for Libby goodies. I'm sure she'll have more yumminess coming along this week so keep an eye out at Sweet Shoppe Designs for a possible sneak peak.

FuNkY Playground Designs Kits and Collabs

I'm back with an overload of layouts created for Funky Playground Designs. Must of felt very creative these past a couple of weeks. Or just time to keep me occupied as I've slowed down helping my best friend out with her wedding projects. I'll show the wedding stuff later.
