Fresh Seeds | DSD 2013 Grab Bag

Happy Digital Scrapbooking Day!!

I am so happy to say that in addition to my fresh November BYOC products, the opportunities for savings with the PYS savings guide, a new Sparkle Confetti freebie on my Facebook page, my contribution to the quarterly DigiScrap Parade, and all the fun and games to be had in The Lilypad forums, I also have a brand new release!

One of my most favorite “traditions” of celebrating All Things Scrappy, is the collaborative fun I have with long-time friend Crystal Livesay. And every year we look forward to creating our annual Grab Bag for DSD.

It’s here and it’s inspired by paper play and as ever these page designs are versatile enough to suit any scrapping style or story:

DigiScrap Parade November 2013 :: Our Life

One of the wonderful happenings for DSD weekend is the launch of the quarterly DigiScrap Parade!

The DigiScrap Parade is a fun “hopping” experience for scrapbookers and storytellers wherein they can “hop” about a series of blogs or Facebook pages to gather pieces to a coordinating collection to scrap their memories.  It is meant to be a sampling of products from wonderful designers in the community, offered quarterly.  I am happy to be a part of the November hop which features a collection inspired by warm love and color for scrapping stories of family, home, love and happy hearts.  For more information and for all the links to the hop, please stop by the DigiScrap Parade website.

Here’s my contribution to Our Life:

Fresh Seeds | Ash Tree

I really find myself inspired by all things list-y, by numbers, and by any stories that find themselves rooted in those things.

Journaling a list is a fantastic method for capturing the story and the details that live in our every day.  And it can be fun to center the story around a number by creating a portrait of a loved one (or yourself) at a certain age, for example, or by documenting a specific day or time of day, or even documenting the number of times your daughter wants to watch her favorite My Little Pony show (we’re at 73, for the record).

So many stories have a connection to numbers, and to listing.  And so it was that spirit of story that inspired my latest collection fresh for the November BYOC at The Lilypad and just in time for Digital Scrapbooking Day!

And joining the element and paper collections is this set of {words and numbers}.  FULL of various numerals and number-centric elements, journal cards, and of word art pieces that focus on counting gratitudes, giving thanks, finding the good things, focusing on what matters most.

This set is a beautiful complement to Ash Tree and would work perfectly for celebrating gratitude, finding the positives and embracing deliberate thankfulness. It lends itself well to 30 Days of Gratitude projects or any other story or page featuring numbers, gratitude or both:

Fresh Seeds | Petals no. 7 & Story Snips No. 1

I love all things autumn-y.  I love that combination of crisp air and warm color and glowing sun.

I also love all things word-y.  I love playing with language, embracing my own quirks of lexicon and assigning meaning to things with my words.

And it’s both of those loves that have inspired this week’s fresh releases.

Meet Petals no. 7:

sgleason_petals7_preview

 

This Petals collection is an earthy, warm, happy, and paper-y collection of hand-crafted layered paper borders/mats. Petals no. 7 features 23 different mixed media layered paper borders: tissue borders, painted borders, chevron borders, scallop borders, papery borders featuring a variety of textures. No two are the same and none are re-colored. Use them alone or layer them to create custom mats and trims.  There are several pieces that really let versatile neutrals shine (cork, kraft, cardboard) so they can work cohesively with many different palettes and products.

Petals no. 7 is available at The Lilypad for 30% off through Monday October 21st, 2013 as part of the Halloween Bash.  Subscribers of the Garden Report also get an exclusive  additional 10% savings.

I’m also really excited about Story Snips no.1:

sgleason_storysnips1_preview

Story Snips no. 1 is a set of 16 hand-written word-art esque phrases, words, and doodled snips for use on photos, in digital or hybrid scrapbook layouts and projects.

TLP has launched a new line of “mobile ready” fonts for use in smartphone applications.

Story Snips is just one such mobile-ready “dingbat” font that you can download immediately to your smartphone or tablet upon download.  And then you can load the font into apps such as Over (iOS) or Phonto (Android + iOS) to use for embellishing and “decorating” photos for uploading to your favorite sites and to social media. (You can see a kind of visual outline of how this works in this blog post on The Lilypad blog).

AND/OR you can purchase Story Snips as PNG and brush files.  These PNG files act as word art and .abr files can be used as brushes.  Both allow for easy re-coloring to match the palettes and products of your digital or hybrid storytelling and scrapbooking projects.

The best deal is the bundle (both!) which you can select from the drop down when you put the product in your cart.

Story Snips no. 1 is 20% off through Monday 21, 2013.   Subscribers of the Garden Report also get an exclusive  additional 10% savings.

Fresh Seeds | Paperwhite {confetti}

I love little details on my scrapbook pages and scatters are one of my most favorite design details. Paperwhite {confetti} is the latest of my confetti collections, featuring vellum scatters that offer the perfect touch of light and subtle detail to your pages and projects.

The Paperwhite {confetti} collection includes 41 different scatters — no two scatters are exactly the same — in solid colors and a variety of mixes. Shapes include: circle, hexagon, star and heart. Perfect for adding that extra touch of detail, fun, whimsy or color to any layout, card or blog post in a more subtle way. Great for celebration pages, pages of imagination, or any every day story!

Fresh Seeds | Beech Tree

I think I find the greatest value in the documentation of everyday stories.  Maybe it’s because those little stories are the things that make our lives *full*.  The details, the conversations, the portraits of moments, the snapshots of character that reveal themselves in everyday happenings.  That’s precisely the kind of story that inspired my contribution to this month’s Build Your Own Collab collection at The Lilypad.

(Incidentally, I have to say.  This is one of those BYOC collections that makes my scrapbooking heart go pitter patter.  It really is full full full of beautiful contributions from the TLP designers.)

Inspired by the spirit of everyday storytelling, documenting the details, and leaving a legacy, the Beech Tree collection echoes the intent of the Beech Tree album which I created to document “in the life” stories.

The Beech Tree {elements} feature cohesive, colorful pieces and classic story-centric pieces for telling those everyday stories:
