Louise has got exciting things happening for SENZ weekend so for those of you going this year – be sure to check out her stall & see the amazing work she has done with hybrid/digital scrapping. Lots of specials at Eidou over that weekend too – JULY 17/18/19 – note your calendars!

Sondra has an Ad Challenge at Eidou so pop on over and have a play – she has bonus for those that take part.

I’m sure you can make some gorgeous layouts using this as inspiration.

 

Anyway – that’s it from me.

NEW @ Eidou

NEW LOOK

So?  What do you think of the awesome new look throughout Eidou?  Louise has been working really hard behind the scenes and it was a wonderful surprise when the new look was unveiled. Congrats Louise – you did a great job!

I don’t know how she manages everything but she is also crazy busy getting lots of goodies ready for SENZ so for those of you who are going to SENZ 17th-19th July – don’t forget to check out the Eidou stand. It will definitely be worth your while for lots of digital and hybrid inspiration.

NEW ADDITIONS TO THE STORE – definitely worth the trip

  

  

  

  

ALSO – don’t forget to check out all the goodies in the 99c bin

 

NEW FUN CHALLENGE – Make it Digi (check out the details in the forum)

Take this awesome Paper Layout and use whatever inspires you to “Make It Digi” – we want it to look like a paper layout so remember to use drop shadows to give it depth. The first challenge is using one of Louise’s layouts – awesome huh?

by Louise Williams aka Brantics

 

and here is my attempt – which I have to say was a little outside my comfort zone as I haven’t scrapped for a while….BUT it was a lot of fun and I would never have tried this otherwise.

So – lots of new stuff happening over at Eidou – we look forward to seeing you there!

Cheers, Michele.

Gorgeous new kit from Digital Fingers

I’ve been busy working on a few new items including this kit called Little Boy Blue. This one is great value as it includes the puffy felt yellow alphabet FREE! Inside are 12 soft co-ordinating papers, including 4 with scalloped edges. Also included are 6 puffy felt clouds, 5 co-ordinating buttons, 2 curled ribbons, 3 colours of ricrac, a flat ribbon, a ruffled ribbon, a journalling block, 2 pins, a stitched frame and a gorgeous floral spray.

Here’s the alphabet that comes with the kit:

And the kit itself:

And, of course, a sample layout I made with the kit:

If you’re interested in trying digital scrapbooking but aren’t sure how to start, then very soon we’ll be starting up regular FREE tutorials to help you along.

If you’re a hybrid scrapper (ie, you adjust your pictures before printing them or do your journalling etc on the computer and then scrap them traditionally), then you should sign up for our Cropstar competition starting on November 1st. You can win an awesome Wacom Drawing Tablet or some fabulous goodies from Embellished, who do just amazing kits!
