Family Contest Entries and Inque Boutique

Here are the first four entries for our final week of the NSD contests.... the theme was anything family. Thanks for the great inspiration guys!



Amanda Cromer emailed us photos of her baby file folder. I love pink brown and green together - what a great combo. The little pull out tabs are perfect for extra photos and journaling.
Sorry Kate, I just noticed that darn zero that fell off is sitting at the bottom of the scanned layout! Kate North did a great job of picking colours to compliment her dark photos. Love the pop of orange.
Lego Land! Totally fun, I want to go too! Vicki Wilson's family took a trip here and she did a super job scrapbooking it! I love all the little dots. I also like the traditionally bright lego colours, and the fact that she wrote about who came, but wasn't in any photos.
Wendy Jansen also had dark photos and struggled with how to scrapbook them. She came up with this neat star desgin which keeps the focus on the individual faces!




Only 2 more days to bring me in your entries, so keep 'em comin!




Inque Boutique arrived yesterday - if you were in my card class and need your stamps, they are now here. Sorry once again for the delivery holdup. For those of you who haven't invested in Inque Boutique yet - you should. And here's why: they are totally inexpensive. This is because they are unmounted rubber, you're not paying for the wood. I know unmounted rubber is really annoying to a lot of people because how do you mount them, you still can't see through the stamp etc... well, these come already with cling - you stick them on your acrylic block, stamp away, and peel off. No permanent mounting. They also have a black outline of the design on the other side of the stamp, so even though you can't see through the stamp, you can still see exactly what you're stamping. Not too shabby eh? They have thought of everything, including giving you a piece of cardboard to store them on, a small stamp mat in every pack, and extra cling for when they get unsticky! The large sets cost only (get ready, your socks are about to get knocked off) $16.49 - yeah, you read that right. The little sets, $4.99. We also have some little sampler guys that are only $1.99!!!! A product called Inqueboard, which is essentially chipboard is here too. Oh, and don't forget about their clear stamp/unmounted stamp storage systems. I'm going to stop rambling now, because seriously, I could talk about these stamps all day. To check out their line go to http://www.sugarloafproducts.com/

Amazing layouts! Love Amanda's baby folder. And Kate's layout is so pretty! The dots on the lego layout are perfect for the theme. And Wendy's star is so original. Good Luck, Ladies!
