Peaches & Cream - My first kit!

My very first kit is all done!! I'm kind of nervous. I hope you like it! It's called Peaches & Cream.


I also made two alphas to go with it:


This kit includes
-13 papers
-2 full alphas (one small and elegant, one big & chunky)
-3 stamped metal brads
-2 real flowers
-3 rectangular frames
-2 scalloped metal oval frames
-4 pieces of glittery bling (1 flower, 3 swirls)
-2 oval journaling blocks (with a separate lined png)
-2 metal flowers
-1 circle reed frame
-3 straight satin ribbons
-4 ricrac ribbons
-4 stamps (1 flower, 3 swirls)
-2 tags (with a separate twine loop to put through them)
-1 torn-edged heart
-2 twine frame-wraps

All in all, that's 37 elements!! I hope you like them!

In case you're not convinced yet, here are some layouts my unofficial CT made for me ahead of time! Thank you so much, ladies! Click on the previews to see a larger version of the LOs.
Kaelira did three pages for me! Two are for an alphabet book she's making for her baby girl, and on the third, she used my template 06! Be sure to stop by her blog and check out her downloads too! She makes awesome templates. Thanks Kae!



Elly made a gorgeous page featuring pics of herself and her son. Isn't it sweet? Can you believe this is one of her FIRST digiscrap pages? It looks awesome! Thanks Elly!


Kristan made a two page layout -- her first 2-pager ever! I think it looks fantastic! Thanks Kristan!

Funky Alpha

Just a quickie freebie for you today. Long story short: Some of the ladies on the mommy-forum I go to really liked the chunky alpha I made for my last layout. I e-mailed Juno to ask if I could make it a real alpha and distribute, but did not hear back from her yet (I'm not certain I used the right email address). At any rate, I decided to make a similar alpha, without using her paper, but using the same color scheme and style. So this is a Juno Pretty Funky inspired alpha. It will coordinate perfectly with her Pretty Funky kit from Sunshine Studios Mission 2 if you have it, but if you don't, I'm sure you can find a use for it anyway. ;)

Pretty Funky Alpha
This is a nice painted-wood-looking alpha using the font "Gill Sans Ultra Bold." Let me know what you think :)

Enjoy~ And come back in a few days! My first kit is done! I'm just waiting to get a couple of layouts done and it'll be up!

A Day in the Life and Template 11

This is my entry for a challenge on the mommy-forum I go to. I love how it turned out! It's a two-pager, and in this case I think it looks best if you see it all together, so here's the whole spread first:

Left page:

Right page:

Journal text may be too small to read on the web, but it's big enough to be legible when printed. I also doodled on the pages a little bit. ^_^

And since I like y'all so much (and since it's been so long since I gave you a freebie!) here's a template I made from this LO!

Template 11
This is a two-page template; the elements are included for visual interest; you don't have to use them. They are on their own layers, so easily removable. I have also included wonky shadows for the images (not for the journal pages unfortunately), which, again, are easily toggled off if you prefer to make your own. Please remember to read the TOU, and comment here if you like the template! :) Also, I'd love to see any layouts you make from my templates! No one has shown me any yet. :(
6/11/09 - This template has been updated and now includes both the original PSD and new PNG files.

Thanks for looking~ keep checking back here -- I've got a very special freebie in the works. My first actual kit! I promise it won't be too much of an eyesore ;) Here's a little teaser for you - my color palette:

CT: Love Letter

Hey all~ I have a kit to show you today. It's called Love Letter, by Simply Susan Godfrey. I am behind the times -- this is a lovely Valentine's Day kit, and V-day is already over. But it was still fun! Here's the kit -- click the preview to go check it out in her shop!


And here are my LOs using this kit, combined with a template by my very dear friend Kaelira (link below). This is a 2-page layout, meant to be viewed side-by-side in a photobook or scrapbook, but I didn't do a two-page preview because once again, it's pretty obvious how they go together. ;)

Thanks for looking! :)

About Kimi and Template 10

This time I'm doing it in the proper order -- LO and related template in the SAME POST. In the past I've been posting the LO way before the template, or not at all (like in the case of #09, which is still not finished). Aaaaanyway. This time around, you can see the potential of the template right away. ;) This LO was for a challenge at a mommy-forum.

Credits:
kit - How Sweet It Is by Jessica Edwards (still available a few posts down)
fonts - A Little Pot, Aquiline, ITC New Baskerville, Tracy.
And now for the freebie...

Template 10
This one has 7 pictures, with mats included and pretty little tabs on a few of them for adding your own little notes (liberal use of the select+delete tools will easily remove the tabs if you don't like them). I have not included shadows in this template.
6/11/09 - This template has been updated and now includes both the original PSD and new PNG files.

Please comment if you like it, feedback is always appreciated!! And don't forget to read the TOU ;)

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Template 09

So, I've been playing with this template but I'm too excited to make a full LO before I post it! It is just too much fun not to share. This is another template inspired by Simply Yin Designs, this time including wonky shadows like she does! They are easy to toggle off if you don't like them. Also, as you can see, it's a two-pager! Have fun with it! I would love to see your LO's if you use this template for them. :)

End of the week~

This concludes my week of free templates. Don't worry, it's not over! I probably won't be such a stickler about getting something up every single day, and I'll probably branch out to other types of freebies, but this has been a fun week! Come back soon for more!

Template 08
This one is just fun. You can see it in action a few posts back, on my CT LO for "Number the Stars." Rounded corners, mats, and ta-daaaaaa~ shadows included! (You can toggle them off though, if you prefer to make your own.)
