GrandmasLove - New kit from Silvia (Phillsboo)















I am just having so much fun being a part of Silvia's creative team, she's made the most gorgeous heritage style kit that is perfect for ANY photographs you may have lurking around.

This kit is HUGE! You really are spoiled for choice,
just take a look at this preview;

























This kit has a total of 18 papers and over 50 elements: 2 buttons, 2 butterflies, 3 frames, 1 lock, 1 key, 2 leaves, 2 flower cluster, 9 ribbons, 2 staple, 2 tags, 1 string, 1 heart element, 1 label, 1 pin, 2 stitches, 2 lace, 1 flower clipping, 11 flowers, 1 beaded string, 2 string elements, 4 bows...AND, as if that wasn't enough, Alpha and numbers too!

It really has been a real pleasure to work with this kit, all the papers blend really well together and, you can use as few or as
many elements as you wish to create superb layouts;

















I have used a variety of photographs in these layouts; my parents
wedding pictures which are obviously black and white, my wedding pictures and one of my eldest boy. So, you can see what an array of different genres of layouts are there for the making - the only limit with this kit is your own creativity.

Now for the best bit, you can actually purchase the entire kit for just $8.39; for that price, not only do you get everything listed above you also get a 27 page mini album and the Grandmas Love album... click here to take a look!

And finally, I'd like to offer you a quick page that I made myself using this kit;

Got some great news.

I can't quite believe this but Silvia, a.k.a Phillsboo of Digital Arts Cafe has asked me to be a part of her creative team.

It is such an honour and I really can't believe it, I've only been scrapping a short time.

If you aren't already a member of the Digital Arts Cafe you should come on over and join us, it really is a friendly forum...great people and great surprises.

I'll let you into a little secret...(just make 5 posts on here and you'll find a secret forum).

Anyway, I make another layout using Phillsboo's Divalicious Kit, it's full of great papers and cute elements, perfect for little princesses...

Being a Boy Kit

I thought this kit was just perfect for making up my eldest boy's first day of school layout. I thought the frame very apt, and thought it worked very well with the paper.

This is another of Phillsboo's kits; an excellent range of papers and lots of nice elements to choose from.

I made this layout for the Digital Arts Cafe font challenge in September.

Sweetest Boy of all kit


I used the "Sweetest Boy of all Kit" to make my first ever digiscrap layout. I have to confess that it was the name that first drew me towards this kit, and being new it was the first one I found that was just right for scrapping my two boys; not too manly and not too babyish.

I used quite a few of the papers in my layout, I just couldn't decide on which paper to use, so I used all the ones that I thought worked well together.

I made this layout for the Digital Arts Cafe monthly quote challange, and I thought it worked really well with a rather rare photo of my younger son smiling.

My first ever post....

Hello, and welcome to my little corner of the world wide web.

I won't bore you with all my life history, though it's only polite to introduce myself; my name is Michelle and I live Scotland with my Husband, two darling wee boys of 5 and 6 and my pensioner of a cat, Clyde (he's 16).

At the moment I am a stay at home mum as my youngest will not be starting school until next August, then it will be time to return to the working population, though I have enjoyed the time off that I have spent with my boys.

I discovered digital scrapbooking quite by chance; planning on a low cost christmas this year I wanted to make everyone more personal presents this year. I purchased a scrapbooking kit in the local shop, intending to sit down with a pot of glue and a mound of photos, but when looking online for some paper I discovered a whole new world......

Digital scrapbooking meant not only would I save money, it was so versatile; I could print off the layouts myself, go to a printers and best of all I could make my own scrapbooking cd and add music.

I have only been a digi-scrapper for about a month, but once I'd discovered it, I was amazed at the skill of the designers.

The slide show I have running at the top have been made from a designer at the Digital Arts Cafe; Phillsboo made a couple of kits that were just perfect for a mother with two darling boys; I know they aren't perfect and I have a lot to learn, but that's part of the fun....
