Retiring - Farewell and Thank You!

It is with a heavy heart that I announce my retirement from digiscrap designing. I have LOVED sharing my artistic creations and seeing the gorgeous layouts you have created with my kits. I'll still participate in blog trains and charity collabs, so please check back occasionally for some fun freebies. In fact, I have a little freebie farewell gift for you today. It's called Spunky Punk. My daughter was my inspiration for this one. She just turned 12 and is the sweetest little punk I know.

My store at 3 Scrapateers is open through the end of the month, but as you know, Inspiration Lane closed last month. I love designing scrap kits, but my heart just kept getting broken when I made a home somewhere and then it was closed. I just don't have the heart to apply to another store. So, for now I will be a full-time mom and wife. I'm sure my family will be glad for that! I will miss you all so keep in touch! Farewell, dear friends!

Welcome, LDS train riders! Happy holidays. I hope you and your family is safe and happy this season. We've had a lot of illness around here.

So, I hope that this little blog train kit will help remind you of Jesus and all that He's done for us. God bless you, dear friends and Merry Christmas!

Two New Kits and a Fab Weekly Download

I have an alpha and two new kits out this week as well as a fun weekly download for you to check out this month at Inspiration Lane. My first kit is a mini for Halloween called Boo!. It's just the right price at this expensive time of year! The best part is, if you like those little trick-or-treaters, you can get a coordinating little guy in the weekly download at Inspiration Lane along with some other terrific goodies from the other designers at IL. Check it out by clicking on the preview below. I have also created a little tag freebie for you that goes along with this kit.



My new alpha is an embossed acrylic alpha that will go with just about any layout. I even created a layout with it that you can see down below. If you like this alpha, it also comes in the Seasons Collection which is my other kit released this week. :) There is the Seasons kit, the Thanksgiving Add-On and the coordinating grungy paper pack. Take a look at the previews. I hope you are all having a wonderful fall season and that you're holidays are full of sweetness! ;)

CT Spotlight and Sneak Peek

This week I am spotlighting my lovely CT member Christie! She's a dedicated and talented scrapper and I'm so happy to have her on my team. Here's what you need to know about Christie:

She's engaged to her sweetheart Robby and has two sweet children Sean and Seth. She lives in Georgia and enjoys photography, collecting coins and Barbies, and (of course) digital scrapbooking! This time of year (Spring) is her favorite and she enjoys long walks where she can hear the birds. She is a stay-at-home mom - her toughest job ever! and she enjoys reality TV and Ruby Tuesday's - especially their Blondies. Yum! She's deathly afraid of snakes and hates having to get up early in the morning, but she does it because she loves her boys so much. :)

Here's what she says about being on team GGD, "I love being a GGD girl because I get the most fabulous kits to play with to capture life's wonderful moments with. The girls on the team are fabulous and very creative and I am proud to be along side of them."

I'm glad she's on my team because she is a great support to me. Here are some of my favorite layouts that she has created.



And here is a QP freebie that Christie designed to share with you. She used my kit 70's Flashback available exclusively at Inspiration Lane in their club click for the month of March. (It will be available in my store there in April, but not for such a great deal! LOL) Click on the image to download the QP. :)


Also, I have a new kit coming out this weekend and I wanted to give you a little sneak peek. I'll give you a hint - it matches the alpha I gave away a few weeks ago. ;) Here's a peek. Watch for a free QP with this kit coming up this weekend.

Last of all, I wanted to give you a head's up that I will be hosting a speed scrap on Monday, March 29th at 8:00 EST at Divine Digital. On that day you will have another chance to get my Hoppy Days kit for free so put it on your calendar. I hope you'll join me for some laughs and a quick layout.
Happy Scrapping!
Larisa

FUN, FUN, FUN!

I had so much fun tonight at the Speed Scrap at RAK scraps. What a hilarious bunch of friends! I laughed harder than I have in a long while. :D I wanted to show you the alpha that I gave away tonight as part of the crop. It will be available in stores tomorrow! I also wanted to give you a little freebie I made with the Hoppy Days kit. It's a QP. :) Click HERE or on the image to download it. Check back in a couple of days for a sneak peek of my next kit release coming soon! Larisa

Download A Day At 3 Scrapateers!

This month at 3 Scrapateers, I am the spotlighted designer and I am giving away a whole kit one piece at a time. :) I chose to create a kit that I named after my youngest son, Logan. It's perfect for "boyish" pics - father, brothers, sons, uncles, buddies, whoevah! You can go to the 3S forum every day to collect all the pieces or you may go and buy the kit in the store if you just can't wait. LOL Here's a peek at the kit. I hope you like it! And here's a layout I did with it of my son, Logan. Isn't he adorable?! Okay, I may be a bit biased, but I think he's dang cute. And a total stinker, too! Please let me know if you create layouts with this kit. I love to see your beautiful work! Also, if you miss a daily download, you can upload a layout to the gallery using the pieces you have and "earn" the pieces you miss (up to 2). Cool, right? Download today's piece HERE.

I'm a Designer for Divine Digital! YAY!

It is with great enthusiasm that I announce my store opening at Divine Digital! What a wonderful store and such talented designers. I can't wait to make myself at home there. I do hope you will take a moment to check out the new store and add a few layouts to my gallery there. It's just waiting to be filled with beautiful layouts. :D

In fact, as a motivation to get you to post your layouts there, I am offering a chance to win my WHOLE STORE there. If you upload a layout using my products to my gallery at DD by Feb 28th, then you will automatically be entered in a drawing to win my store. How's that for motivation! LOL I hope you'll share your beautiful work there for everyone to see. And I promise to leave you sugar. ;)

I have a new CT spotlight and a new kit coming this weekend, so check back soon for that! For now, I'd like to give you a little celebratory gift. It's my Game Night Alpha. I hope you have fun with it! Have a great week, everybody!

I also have some coordinating word art for FREE at Inspiration Lane. Here's a peek: Click on the word art preview or HERE to download the free word art. Have a lovely week!

New Store - Inspiration Lane

I have officially opened the doors to my new store Inspiration Lane. I am so excited about this new venture! Inspiration Lane is such a fabulous store - I am honored to be able to sell my designs there. I hope you'll check out my new store. I have my entire store 25% off for my debut and a new "exclusive" kit called A Day to Remember. Here's a beautiful layout done by my CT member, Stephanie. Isn't she talented? And here is a free QP just for you! Click on the picture below to download. I also have two more new kits coming out in the next week or so with fun freebies to come. I hope you'll check back soon! It is with a sad heart that I announce the closing of Scrap Outside the Box. I sold my kits there for over a year and was quite sad that it had to close. Thank you to my loyal customers who supported me there. I hope you will look for me at 3 Scrapateers or at my new store at IL! Have a great day!

'Tis The Season for New Kits!

My new kit Heaven and Nature Sing will make your layouts sing! Beautiful, rich holiday colors make this kit perfect for Christmas memories, snow day pictures, and elegant seasonal family photos. You can even make your own beautiful holiday cards with this kit. It's a lovely combination of nature and bling.

And for my friends and loyal customers, I created a little extra add-on kit that coordinates with the Heaven and Nature Sing kit. You can click on the preview below to download this for FREE. And if you want to get the kit, it's on sale for only $1.50 TODAY ONLY. Regular price is $6. You can find it at 3S or SOTB. I hope you enjoy scrapping with the kit as much as I enjoyed making it. :)

Happy scrapping!
