Clusters How-To

I'm scared to death to try doing any kind of clustering on my layouts. When I am brave enough to try it I give up pretty quickly because it is so challenging! It just looks stupid when I try.

I haven't shared any tutorials from other sites with you in a while, but did not want to pass up the chance to direct you to this one about clustering that was posted at The Daily Digi this weekend. Definitely take the time to check out this lengthy, but very useful guide to clustering. Click here to go to the tutorial. Maybe now after reading it I will be brave enough to give it another try.

Happy Scrapping!

Dipsy Doodles - New Release

Dylabel Designs and Dancing Princess Designs have put together a jammed-packed huge kit. It has a beautiful combination of spring-like colors. I loved playing with this versatile whimsical kit. It's on sale this week for $5.50 at GoDigitalScrapbooking.com. I used the delicate purples to make my layout. I turned it into a quickpage that you can pick up on the Dylabel Designs CT blog. Check out the kit, layout, and quickpage preview below.

Speed Scrap Layout and Freebie

I made this page at a speed scrap at Polkadotplum.com. The speed scrap was led by Sweet Tomato Designs. It was loads of fun!

Project 365 Week 6

Okay, I finished my Project 365 layout for Week 6. Just jumping on to post it.

Project Cole & Lillie 365 - Week 6

Well since I'm snowed in again (Saturday, Sunday, yesterday, and today), I thought I would catch up on my Project 365 pictures. I have them all organized again, but have only scrapped Cole and Lillie's page so far.

Instead of using one kit for all 52 layouts, I decided to switch the kit by month. Naturally I wanted something for Valentine's day, so I chose "Sweet Nothings" by Dylabel Designs.

Here's my page and there's a freebie template made from the page below.
