And with it, we've multiple submissions from our blog readers to be admired on this fine Monday. Let us just say, that the submissions keep getting better and better - we're guessing that a whole host of you have finally had the chance to collect either one or "all four" of our Winter releases (yikes, do we dare say that word?! Winter..maybe not, but it was one of favorite releases to date, so we'll opt to say it anyway). You've been playing tirelessly with the goodies it seems as our inboxes have been flooded by your talents - and a huge thanks to those that have submitted the last couple of weeks {and prior, of course!}! We've narrowed down the options for today's showing - most being layouts, though we've one that brings us in the direction of the ever-popular printers tray and the familiar face of Portrait! The exquisite tray's artist is Mandy Starner and her tray is actually today's major highlight and project fave WINNER! Congratulations Mandy, we've a prize pack awaiting you here at the Crate Paper warehouse - how about sending us your info at [email protected] to claim your goodies?! Thank-you for sharing it with us and Crate's blog readers!
And to give recognition to those projects we fell in love with as well, their projects are noted below, along with a comment or two about our reasons for so highly admiring them...
From AnnaMarie Mondro, these might possibly be the most precious series of photos we've ever seen and their arrangement suites them perfectly! The layout is immensely playful with them photos tilted every which direction! We're liken' the embellishment combinations too!
A local shop pizza box kit set-up, Ebony van der Starre {Australian Scrapbook Designer} crafted her layouts along with instructions to coinside with the kit's Crate Paper contents. How lucky for them, eh?! The kit encompassed the Neighborhood range of paper and embellishments.
Planted inside Lu Minoti's cute lil' house is a second photo that's sweetly tucked away as a sort of unexpected surprise unbeknownst to us - we hadn't really realized that the house could be opened until we closely examined Lu Minoti's detailed images - it's an adorable idea, don't you think? A clever, tangible feature that simply can't be missed!
Cassie's little pug, Emma, brings out a whole another side of Emma's Shoppe {same names!} that serves to show you (and us!) that not only is the collection fabulous for girls, but for dogs too!This is most definitely appropriate Cassie - she's a major cutie!!
Fascinated by Marie-Nicolas's assortment of bits & pieces from both our collections and other's, her layouts our seriously eye-catching and fascinating to look at. Lot's and lot's of wee bitty details and overlapping elements to enjoy and take-in! Even the littlest of features are notably wonderful, including the punched stars and mismatched brads in layout number two :)
In reaching the end, we'd like to kindly thank the artist's/paper crafters that provided us a glimpse and opportunity to post their work here on our blog as part of our every-other-Monday Reader's Gallery. Feel like joining in on the fun?! If so, send your submissions to [email protected]! A fave is a chosen each and every time as we give away a goodie box to the lucky person!
WOW!!! Stunning layouts, ladies!
and WOW!! I am so excited and HONORED to see my tray up there! Thank you so much!!
