Freebie Alert

Hi,
I just had to share with you. I recently decided that if I was going to make things, I wanted to learn from scratch. So I joined a learn to design course at www.browniescraps.com . Our first assignment was to design a mini kit using no Commercial Use items.

Step One: Go to the Forum and down load my kit here. (You must be a registered member of Brownie Scraps to download the kits, but its a great community with friendly people, good challenges and lots of learning opportunities!) Plus, they are great about leaving love!

Step Two: Make a gorgeous Layout and post it here.

Step Three: If your layout is chosen as the best LO, we each get a $5 Brownie Scraps Gift Certificate!
If you do download my kit and do a layout, PLEASE comment and leave me a link to your layout so I can leave you some love.

There are 35 designers, which means 35 free mini kits for you!!

Here is a preview of what I have so far for next weeks mini. I will post the link once they become available for download.


Well that's about it for now. I am having fun with the course, but finding it so hard to think outside the Commercial Use box.

Cheers Helen

I am so forgetful

Hello again,


I am so forgetful, been so busy with CT's and life in general that I forgot to come back to the blog and post my layouts. I have been a bit under the weather lately and found it hard to keep up with everything, but feeling better now so back into it.


I want to start putting freebies up again too, so that is next on the list of things to do, hoping to get stuck in over the next couple of days.


Over the last few days I have been working with a fabulous kit called Candy Spring. This is an awesome kit available at http://www.coolscrapsdigital.com/. Below is a preview of the kit and the layouts I made using it:

First layout is called Fun, Frolic and Feet:

Second layout is The Beauty of a Single Rose:

and last but by no means least Nature Walk:

Pop on over the www.coolscrapdigital.com and have a look around it's a great site and the shop is full of gorgeous kits.

Next time I come on I will have to remember to change my blogs look, I'm sure Christmas is over now. LOL!!

That's it for now. Thanks for checking in and looking at the blog.

Cheers Helen
