Family Tree Kit by Doormouse

---

Well, it seems like years since I posted on our blog and it is in fact only about 3 weeks! Life has been very hectic getting both of my children ready to go off to University, and hating the idea of them leaving..... Oh well, life goes on. Now I am beginning to get my head back together again, here is a little something I have been working on for a while. I am a complete Family History addict - along with scrapbooking - so what better than to provide some tools for combining the two? I love the subtlety of the backgrounds and had to stop making elements as I could have gone on forever. However, if you think there are some elements that are glaringly obvious in their absence please let me know and maybe I'll create a complimentary kit!

Dreamy Glimmers by akida29

This kit is GREAT for all of you who love to layer your pages. Most items have drop shadows added for the depth effect, and everything you need to build your own star strings is in it's own little folder! Lots of Backgrounds and swags to mix and match, and lots of different frames. Have fun, and remember; There is nothing more satisfying to us than to see how you've used our kits, so please send us the links to your pages!!!!!

Sunshine & Smiles by akida29

---

This kit was inspired by two flowers which made me think of sunny days and lipsticked smiles. The elements are made of pewter and glass, and the kit includes glass inserts to put into the frame tiles if you choose not to use 4 pictures.

I would really love to see how you use this kit, so please send in your links, or message me at SBF!! Thank you, and Enjoy!!

We're Slowing Down A Bit!!

Hello all you wonderful fellow scrappers!! Just a quick note to let you know we have NOT forsaken you!!!! All three of us have a very busy month ahead of us, and aren't able to do as much creating as we would like :(. I've returned part time to work (which I love) and Pauline has family milestones galore this month, and Linda is dealing with her own personal projects as well. So....with all that being said, we will be posting new kits from time to time, just not on the schedule of every three days which we've managed to do so far!

Thanks so much to all of you who have left such wonderfully encouraging remarks, both here and on our downloads pages....they are what keeps us going!!!

Coffee N Cream Paper Pack by Doormouse

---

A third (and final) brocade paper pack. I am a bit of a coffee addict - don't you just love those coffee colours? I think these colours are great backgrounds for a more masculine look (even allowing for the brocade effect!) What do you think they would be good for? Let me know!

Peacock Kit by Doormouse

---

I think peacocks are just so beautiful don't you? I particularly love the colours and the way their feathers shimmer. I love watching them wandering about with their tail feather open, and the phrase "proud as a peacock" really fits don't you think? So naturally - I was inspired to create a peacock kit. I love some of these backgrounds so much and had such fun creating them that there might be a second kit inspired by these majestic birds one day. I have split the download in two to make it slightly easier for some to download.

Add-On for Backyard Safari by akida29

This is just a small Add-On of flowers and tags. I got hung up on experimenting, and then couldn't decide which flowers I liked best, so I included them all, lol! Hope you like them!

Wild Roses by Doormouse

---

Here is another kit based on a couple of photos I took. This time some beautiful wild roses. I love the deep pinky purple of this kit. By my standards this is only a small kit, there are only two papers with this kit and several elements but I hope you'll agree this is enough. Don't forget to let us see what you did with the kit, as we really enjoying seeing how creative you all are! Enjoy.

This kit contains some of the very first elements and backgrounds I ever created! Although it is not very big, I do plan on making additional elements at some point in the "maybe distant" future, so keep your eyes open for an addon!!! Happy Scrapping!!!

Love Remembers by Doormouse

---

Unfortunatly we all have times when we want to create scrap pages to remember, or pay tribute to, a loved one. Finding the right words can be hard, so I hope that the word art included with the kit will help you express the way you feel. When you love someone, you will always carry their memory with you, but sometimes you need something you can look at too. The kit includes a quick page with a poem on it that I think expresses very clearly how we always carry our memories of those we have lost with us. All you have to do is insert your picture.

This page is the quick page that comes with the kit, with a photo of my grandmother.

Japanese Garden by Doormouse

---

I have always love Japanese art forms and was inspired by Xntiks Oriental Odessey to design something Japanese. I could have gone on and on as there are so many possible sources of inpiration. Mostly my inspiration was a visit to a garden with an oriental theme and some of the photos I took. The bridge I found so beautiful I just had to include it. Its a bit different for me, I hope you like it. There is an alphabet included with this one. The background papers are all based on bamboo or crumpled paper with cherry blossom.
