...that's right, I got a taste for designing and now I can't stop! I've read it on all the blogs and forums that this is how it happens, and now I have officially caught the bug! And I don't want a cure, LOL! I knew it was there all along, just hadn't given in yet.
I have just completed my very first kit. I was inspired, as so many are, by my daughter's clothes. She has this cute sundress and every time I wash it, hang it up, pick it out for her to wear or pick it up off the floor, I think, "that would make a cute color scheme for a kit" or "that would be a cool BG paper." So, i finally just took the plunge and brought the idea to fruition and, if you like it, you will benefit form my efforts, I'm giving away my kit on my blog! More on that below...
First I want to show you the inspirational fabric from her dress:
And the kit, Summer Sundress:
That's it for now, make sure to check back over the next few days for the rest of the kit. I think I'll have at least one, if not, two layouts up here tomorrow so you can see it in action.
So, what do you think? Hope you all like it as much as I do and as much as I liked making it! I would love feedback, but be gentle, remember, this is my first kit ever:)
So, the way I am going to give it out is one file a day for five days: 2 sets of papers, 2 sets of elements and the alpha (sorry no international characters or punctuation on this one, I'm easing in, lol).
So, click (LINK HAS BEEN REMOVED-see 7/28 post) for the first set of papers, the patterns, password is inspiration. Please enjoy, let me know how you like it and when you do a LO, please email me! I'd love to share it here on the blog...jengregory14 at cox dot net. And finally, no file or link sharing, just send people here, thanks.
And, on a more personal note, I just had to share this...my darling son tripped over a chair at our block party yesterday and smacked his head on the driveway, ouch! I've never seen anything like it! Two hospitals later, he is fine, no loss of consciousness or internal bleeding, just a HUGE goose egg!
That's it for now, make sure to check back over the next few days for the rest of the kit. I think I'll have at least one, if not, two layouts up here tomorrow so you can see it in action.
Nite nite!
Congratulations on your first kit! The colours are wonderful. I'll be checking back for the rest of the kit.

ReplyDeleteI feel your pain. My daughter was pushed down at preschool 2 weeks ago and had a big goose egg in the middle of her forehead. She still has a bump and the bruise is finally going away, but it wasn't as big as your son's though...poor guy!
ouch that bump looks really painful, looks like a very brave boy though.

ReplyDeleteFirst kit!?!?!? Wow! You're amazing! Thanks for sharing this kit.
ReplyDeletePoor Zach! I've never seen anything like that goose-egg he's got. Last year my granddaughter was running and tripped and hit the bumper of the car on her way down, then hit the driveway. She ended up with a mild concussion, but she didn't have anywhere near that big a knot. She did leave a dent in the bumper, though!
Oh.my.goodness - poor little guy. I have never seen a huge bump like that. Glad though that he is okay...
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing your first kit ever with us - it is awesome.
