Janette's Monthly Challenge at Dragons Lair Designs!

This kit makes me smile with sunshine when I am playing with it!  That's a pretty cool thing to be able to say about a kit that is sooo inexpensive PLUS Janette is giving away a Freebie addition to the kit on the Dragons Lair Inspiration Blog!!  How cool is that?  Here is my latest (I am addicted to this) play with the fabulous Citrus kit! 


I am making a digital scrapbook of our latest trip to Japan and this kit is working out so well!  I added two photos of my son as photographer and observing the customs of the temple at Ueno Park.

Why not run to the Dragons Lair Inspiration Blog HERE and grab the freebie and then run, well, you may walk if holding scissors! to the Dragons Lair Designs Etsy Store and buy the mini kit "Citrus".  Then create away!  Remember if digital play is not your thing, then these kits make wonderful elements to print out and cut to make cards...anything you want!

And here is my first fun page with this kit :)

Dragons Lair Designs is Back and We are Celebrating the Holidays!

Hi, all!  What a great feeling to be typing up a blog post telling you that Dragons Lair Designs is now back up and running with a store on Etsy with some Christmas goodies plus all kinds of other goodies!  On our Facebook Fan Group which I want to say is an awesome group of ladies who have kept posting and playing our games even when the store was down for a bit due to health problems of Janette, the owner.  These wonderful ladies kept up the Dragonette's spirit and now we have the store open so we are all very happy!

Our December Coloring Challenge came in handy when The 12 Days of Christmas came and went before I even got a project done!  So now on our Fan page you can request the image (a challenge because he is not a Christmas image we are making him so!) and I will send it to you and you have until the end of the year wink wink sounds longer than the end of December doesn't it?? to have a finished project in the photo file!  Here is my little guy all decked out for Christmas!

Celebrating Summer at Dragons Lair Designs


Love the "Seaside Retreat" collection from Dragons Lair Designs Store!  So pretty and so many elements to use in mixed media projects, too!  This is another digital layout using another of my dad's pictures from Alabama.  The colors are so gorgeous; the sea breeze is blowing through my hair :)  This kit is perfect for saving all those fun summer memories of the kids while they swim and slip and slide through summer.  Busy moms can go completely digital and pop the pics right into the elements; then type up the details of the day.  Or you can print out all or some of the elements and go hybrid or traditional scrapbooking.  We have something for everyone to fit everyone's schedule!



We'd love to have you join us in our Fan Group and post up some pictures of any creations you make using any DLD items.

More Seaside Retreat Fun

This is a special make for me because my Daddy took this pic at his favorite spot in Fairhope, Alabama, they didn't like the main beach at Gulfshores.  But they always went to the pier every time they were down there at our place.  Bitter sweet for me.  This collection "Seaside Retreat" was perfect for this and perfect for me because the beach is where my heart is and down there is my very happy place.  You can have some fun creating with this fab kit so visit the Dragons Lair Designs Store and take it home with you.  


Don't forget our challenge at Dragons Lair Designs Challenge Blog this month; come and play with us!  And every Sunday we have the Showcase Sunday with fun things and a FREEBIE!  We all love freebies and also a chance to win a voucher at the store :)

Seaside Retreat Collection at Dragons Lair Designs

I am so thrilled with this collection of course because it is beach related!  I miss my beach this very hot summer but this kit makes me feel the breeze and smell the salt air.  I printed the elements out and made a canvas with  them on a piece of cardboard.  See if you can feel that seaside feeling :)


This collection is available at Dragons Lair Designs Store this month; please check out the store and see it up close!  I love this little seahorse...he is adorable!  The mixed media element in this kit works fabulous on a canvas and saved me so much time and work.  

Dragons Lair Designs supply an eclectic assortment of digital downloads.  These include whole collections of items that work well together, digital stamps, etc.

Buy, download, then either work with the items digitally, start digitally then print out and complete your crafting as a hybrid project, or print straight out and do your usual papercrafting.

Happy Birthday Mama

Well, we will be spending Mama's birthday in the hospital, but while she is sleeping I decided I could still make something for her digitally since my stash is all at home!  Not one drop of glue nor scissors do I have with me.....not enough room in the bag I packed.  So to help me out I grabbed the Showcase Sunday Freebie from Dragons Lair Designs Inspiration Blog.  To help our with not having my pictures handy I  am having to make do with a freebie picture from Red Lead that looks just like my mama's baby pic ;)  This is a 'Taste of Summer' and can be found HERE at the Inspiration Blog.


So, hospital or no, we will be together and celebrate her 74th bday...shhh, I did not leak that info!  It will be the naughty step for me for sure!

You can gather up freebies and challenges and  prize vouchers to spend at the Dragons Lair Designs Store, too, and make a memory in just a few minutes that you will treasure for a lifetime.  And busy moms, don't let those special times slip past without that awesome photo you snapped not being given a place of honor with such ease to type out the details you want to remember forever.  Digital scrapbooking is a wonderful way to do this and you have the joy of a scrapbook with the ease of storage on your computer and the bonus of printing them out when you have that rare minute to have a scrapbook to hold!  I sure wish this had been around when my kids were babies...so many little details get forgotten as the memory gets so chock full of details.

Some Late Play with Sugar Brights Collection

As many of you know, I am sadly having to deal with my mom being diagnosed with lung cancer, the same evil disease that took my dad 5 months ago.  Never ever imagined this all happening so close together, well, never imagined it to be totally honest.  I  am trying to take some time while she is resting to color some and tonight while she is in the hospital I am doing some digital work.  Things that I can easily stop and pick up as the time demands it but enough to help with  the anxiety and depression that comes with being a caregiver to a loved one.

The amazing design team at Dragons Lair Designs had a wonderful blog hop where the participants were rewarded with a piece of the Sugar Brights Collection (and it is in the pound section!)  at each stop ending up with the whole collection!  It is a beautiful and bright kit with lots of awesome summery elements to it.  As I was unable to participate with my teamies I wanted to have a go with it tonight. 


How sunny is this?  Love, love the sunflowers!  The links below will take you to the magic of Dragons Lair Designs where challenges, our store, and lots of inspiration await you....even FREEBIES!  Yes, every Sunday the talented Janette, our leader and creator of all things Dragons Lair, has a Showcase Sunday that includes a challenge and a freebie for all who visit!  As a matter of fact, I think I will have a play with today's freebie next!

http://stampingwithdragon.blogspot.co.uk/

Please stop by our Dragons Lair Designs Challenge Blog for June where the theme is 'One for the Men".  There is a prize voucher to spend at the Dragons Lair Designs Store for our winner that Mr. Random Generator graciously chooses for us!

April's Head to Head Challenge at Dragons Lair Designs

"Zoodles" is sooo cute!  This kit is for our Head to Head Challenge on our Fan Page HERE.  You pop in the Dragons Lair Designs Store and buy this kit and enter it in the photo album on the Fan page and if you win the next kit is yours free :)  Everyone who plays gets a loyalty point and those add up for a shopping voucher, too!  I have 4 grand -pups whom I adore and this was a fun make for me.


The papers are adorable  and that pup is just realistic and you want to pet his head, really!  I used a chippie with "LOVE", of course, because they are so loving and forgiving never holding a grudge.  Maybe one day I will learn from my grand-pups and past faithful friends that I still love.  Wonderful teachers and example setters they are :)

Please take a look at our sites, blogs, and pages and especially the store which has had a fabulous remake by the talented Janette!  And remember our April Challenge is going on still with the easy theme "Anything Goes" so come see us and link up with you fantastic make!  Link is HERE  Thanks for taking time to visit "Zoodles".
