Blog Train: Those Summer Nights {Freebie}

Welcome to Nibbles Skribbles stop on the Those Summer Nights Blog Train! Are you enjoying the kit so far? I hope so! Did you know that YOU can be a part of our next blog train? Each month at Stuff to Scrap we invite designers of all levels and kinds to join us in creating a massive kit! August's theme is "Summer Camp" and you can sign up to be a part of it at the STS forum.

Anyways, on to what you're really here for - my portion of Those Summer Nights. The way I see it, no kit is complete without some nice solid papers - so I have a set of coordinating cardstock for you. These will be here for 2 weeks before I move them into my store!

$2 Tuesday

Everytime I hear/type $2 Tuesday I think of the Subway commercials....anyways, it's $2 Tuesday at Stuff to Scrap and this week I have 2 of my popular items (or most desired...) on sale for $2! (Hint: My first newsletter goes out tomorrow, and you can save more if you wait until then to shop. Make sure you're signed up for it. Sign up is on the left side of my blog).

First: Flutterby - my first kit! The kit is marked down to $2 this week, and remember for $1.99 you can also pick up the coordinating cardstock!


and my other $2 item is my 12x12 Blocked Out templates. I apologize, I haven't gotten a chance to finish converting these to rectangle. Hopefully I'll get them done this week! Sorry to all you rectangle scrappers. I usually don't release stuff until it's ready in both sizes, but I couldn't wait on this one! These templates are great for so many things! Use the blocks as guides for pictures, elements, papers....combine templates for a whole new look or use them together for 2-page layouts that coordinate beautifully.

American Boy {Freebie}

Scrappy Cocoa has an adorable little American Boy/Fourth of July themed freebie kit out this week. Just in time for all of your pictures from this weekend (if you're in the USA).


Here's my Layout (which I also did as a quick page for you - with and without the word "fireworks" on it) This is my son, last fourth of July. It's right about bedtime and the little guy was just too tuckered out to stay up to see the fireworks. Say it with me now, awwww!

and here's the quick page/s for you

*Expired*

Just a note....

Scroll down for some great QP freebies from Wild Thing and Summer Sparkle....

I have decided to do some spring cleaning in my photo and file hosting sites. I will start today with all photos - so various image links may end up broken - sorry! My blog may be undergoing a makeover too. With all the images, blinkies etc I find it moves slow and takes a long time to load....so I'm going to rearrange a little :)

I am also going to be expiring my quick pages. I will leave them up for 1 month (some less, if a designer requests a shorter period) So hurry up and grab any older QP's that you don't have because links will start vanishing sometime next week!

Oh man, I suck! {Freebie}

I hope you can all forgive me for forgetting to post about some new stuff out this week in scrapland. I was so busy with my own stuff this week. I don't know how these girls who give away a kit a week do it! Keeping up with the blog posts every day is a full time job!

First ~ A few reminders - My Summer Sparkle Kit (Scroll down) will be here free until Sunday. Then it will move into my store. Also, don't forget about the awesome cardstock Add-On I have for $1.99 in my store - BUT WAIT! This weeked is the Sizzlin' Summer Sale at Stuff to Scrap and EVERYTHING is 30% off (including the add-on - which is only $1.39 this weekend)


If you follow me on Twitter then you heard about the $2 Tuesday deals - each Tuesday new items will go on sale for $2 for the week. So hurry over and pick up this weeks deals (which are also 30% off!) I have a couple of Template Sets in the $2 deals for you to pick up if you haven't yet!

There is a Speed Scrap today and another one tomorrow in the forums too....so check it out!

OK, on to the good stuff :) This week Scrappy Cocoa and Digi-Designs by Nicole teamed up to bring you Wild Things a funky bright collab. It will be free until Sunday on their blogs, so don't miss it! Here is my LO (which will be a QP for you too if you read on). (I got up bright and early to hang out with my BFF while waited for the doors to open so she could get her new Palm Pre.



I can't find the preview files I had, but their names are linked above, so click them to get this awesome kit while it's free!

There are some free Quick Pages with my Summer Sparkle kit floating around too. Steph and Christie-Dawn both have quick pages with Summer Sparkle for you today too. And so do I! (I put this together with one of the freebies I gave out this week at Forever Free.


Alright, if you read all the way to here - then you will be rewarded! (For Quick pages and Templates I am using box.net - it's faster and easier then 4shared for smaller files!)

**And don't forget about the add on cardstock in my store

Thank You!

First off, I want to say thank you to all of my friends, followers and fans! You guys are awesome! Truly awesome. I have gotten so many lovely comments & emails on my Summer Sparkle Kit (scroll down for the elements) it truly does make me excited to keep on creating!

Second, I want to thank everyone who checked out and downloaded my template freebie at Forever Free. Brandi, the owner, gave me an update yesterday around 5 p.m. - at that point I had more then 1,300 hits to the site - the most ever on the first day of a spotlight (more even then Charlie's Digi-scraps, which I consider a feat in itself because Sharlene's stuff rocks!)

Finally, I wanted to let you know that I decided to start a Nibbles Skribbles newsletter with special goodies & contests inside for anyone who subscribes! I plan to send it out twice a month, tops! (Maybe an exception or two :)). You can sign up to receive it over there <-----. And with that, I will let you get back to downloading your goodies for the day! I'll be back with some other great freebies in scrapland this week too - or you can just see the list here

There are a number of regular participants in this challenge, and they told me they were all for something really challenging...and it might seem a little scary to you too, but many of the girls who have already completed the challenge have told me that it was so worth it and they have now captured a story that they might not of otherwise scrapped.

Blocked Out Templates (& a Coupon)

I have added quite a few new products to my store in the last few days - but today I want to focus on my newest template set. It's called "Blocked Out" and these are the most versitile templates out there! Twist them, turn them, edit them - you can use them over and over and never have the same layout twice! Currently they are only available in 12x12 format, but will soon be available for all you rectangle scrappers too!

Check out what my Team has done with these templates so far!

Christie Dawn - I love this idea, a full year of her son on one page! Just in time for his first birthday too!


Deanna converted the template to rectangle her self and did this adorable LO with it


Ellay did 4, but I can't post them all because some kits haven't been released yet. I did decide to post this one - it's with a new kit by Scraps of Ellay coming out next week I believe.



and this one is another great idea, what a fun way to get to see your whole family all together!



Kimmie shows how they work great for Project 365 LO's
