Design Factor Race at Digi Scrap Connect - # 5

We only have one more week of the race to go. I have made it to the fifth one which surprised me as I did not think I would even get through the first week. I am enjoying all the learning about designing that I am experiencing. So after this race keep an eye out for more free kits as I will not be stopping and will continue designing kits to give away.  I have started making a list of kits I would like to make. Some will be just wordart kits as I do enjoy creating wordart.
Anyway here is this week's kit which you can go HERE  to download it. This challenge was to find out how good we are at recolouring. We had to use Commercial Use products and recolour them.

Design Factor Race

Now I will share weeks 2, 3 and 4 of the Design Factor Race. These are the previews of the kits I have created for these designing challenges. If you click on them they will take you to Digi Scrap Connect where you can download them from.
I am enjoying being pushed in my designing. I am leaning a lot and it is fun.  I have become even more hooked to doing more designing. At this point in time I have no desire to do it commercially. I just enjoy being able to give the kits away for free.
Here are the ones to date:
Week 2
Week 3
Week 4

Designing Race at Digital Scrap Connect - week 1 - Summer Heat Mini Kit

I signed up to take part in a Designing Race and did not think I would get the Week 1 Assignment completed as we had to create our own papers and elements without just recolouring commercial use items.
I enjoyed the challenge and am pleased with how my mini kit turned out.  I use a brush for the grass - it is on one paper and also a separate PNG file.  The knotted string I extracted from a scanned piece of string.
So if you would like my little mini kit for FREE -  please click HERE

Welcome to the Big Two-rific Birthday Blog train, hosted by Digiridoo Scraps staff members. You are here at my little spot : A-Ms. I hope you're having a great trip. We're having a blast celebrating DRS' 2nd! birthday and hope you are having as much fun as we are. There are several stops along the way. You should have gotten here from   Emms   . But now that you're here, here is my portion of this Two-rific blog train.


Just click on the image to download the two Quick Pages I made using a wonderful kit called Two-Riffic by the designers at Digi-ridoo Scraps.  Now if you like the look of the kit pop over the store HERE and purchase the kit or if you would like it for free this month (only this month ) spend more than $5 in the store and it is yours for free. 

Here are two layouts I created which I used for making the Quick Pages:
For this next one I used a great template kit "Anything Goes Vol 3"  by Scrap-a-Holic Designs which will soon be released in the store at Digi-ridoo Scraps. If you want to see some other great templates by this designer, please check out her store HERE

Now to continue on the Blog Train and see what other lovely Clusters, frames and Quick Pages others have made please go to the following blog  by   KATIE
As we are all from different parts of the world, if you find a blog that does not have something for this train, it may mean they have not started their part yet, so please pop back to them later in the day.

I WAS ACCEPTED...... ON THE CREATIVE TEAM FOR DIGI-RIDOO SCRAPS

This week I received the exciting news that I was accepted on the Creative Team at Digi-ridoo Scraps. For this month I have been a guest on the team which I have been enjoying. The team for this store are a great team to work with so I was so pleased to have my application accepted.  My digital scrapbooking style may not be as arty as the other new members of the team but I hope that what I create will inspire those that just like to scrap for the memory of the photos and the story those photos tell which is my main reason for doing scrapbooking. 
Here is where on the forum the announcement was made:
