Hey Friends!

Lizzy here with a challenge that involves cash money to La’s store. Please go to Jenn Barrette’s gallery and find a layout that inspires you! Then, use some of your La Grier goodies and lift that layout.  Post here with links to the layout you lifted and the layout you completed! You can be as creative as you like! Spin it, change it, make it your own.

Here is Jenn’s Gallery.

You have until next Tuesday, Oct 6th to post your stuff here and we will be back on Wednesday, Oct 7th to announce our winner!

Best of luck! Now go and be inspired!

Thank you everyone who responded & played along with our little contest yesterday. It was super fun reading all your responses :] I think the best part for me is def spending time with friends and family- which is amusing, because EVERY year I go through this whole “I don’t want to go dance”. I always imagine something horrid happening lol.. The rest of it, I can do without lol.. The holiday season is stressful ^_^

Anyway, our random winner was Jac!! :]

My favorite part of the holiday season is the decorations. I love how the whole house seems to transform and really keep the season at the fore-front of my mind!

Please get in contact with me (email, pm, a comment here lol doesn’t matter, just somehow) letting me know your product of choice (either from ssd or my new shop here @ scrapfasticdesigns.com) Thanks so much again everyone!!

Good morning everyone…or afternoon or evening, depending on what time zone you live in! So, today is Friday & we usually have a little sneak peek for ya. Well, it’s not quite ready yet, so I’ll have to come back & edit this post in a little bit.

But, first we decided to have a little contest today! One random winner will win some awesome goodies from the fabulous La! Who doesn’t want free La goodies?! So, we decided to make this super easy for ya. All you have to do is leave us a comment here answering this one question. “What is your favorite part of the holiday (Thanksgiving/Christmas) season?” Yes, I know, it’s not even Halloween yet. But, Thanksgiving & Christmas are getting close & I cannot wait! I’ve already made pumpkin pie & have been listening to the Christmas channel on Pandora! lol So, what’s your favorite part? Is it the food, the sales & shopping, the gifts, the decorations, the weather, the time with family, thinking about the true meaning of the holiday? It can be anything. Just let us know here & you could win!

Today we’re getting to know Debra (4noisyboys)

Hi, my name is Debra. I’ve been married 27 years and have 4 mostly grown sons
Where do you live?
I live in Southern California right now. I was raised in the Bay Area, but I’ve lived in Alaska and Seattle too during our marriage. We miss it and would love to move back someday
How long have you been doing digi?
I’ve been doing digi for 3 years. I had made 3 or 4 paper albums, but I dreaded getting out all the supplies and having to clean it all up. Once I found digi, I was never turning back
Favorite Lauren Kit?
This is SO hard!! I’m really drawn to “What I Like About You”, and then her newest one “A Beautiful Glow

Favorite Lauren Layout?
I think that today it is this one

If you were stranded on an island with Lauren, what 5 things do you think you girls would need?
I would need to have my laptop with a solar powered battery supply. I would have to have my chapstick. My iPod (which I can charge with my battery supply!) and I’d love some hostess little white powered donuts and unlimited bottles of water (ok…take out the white donuts and put in something La likes…I don’t want her to starve! LOL)
What is your favorite artist/band?
I can’t choose just one, but if I were to just say whose CD’s were in my care right now, it would be Tom Petty, Counting Crows, Red Hot Chili Peppers, U2, Black Crows and something else I can’t remember. Love all of those though
If you were a crayon, what color would you be?
Outrageous Orange
What first attracted you to La’s designs?
Doodles, gorgeous designs, amazing papers….what’s not to love?
How long have you been with La?
I think about 6 months
What Fall TV show are you most looking forward to?
Survivor and the Office

Hope you enjoyed getting to know Mrs. Debra, besure to come back on Wednesday and see what’s going on.

Hey all! Tali here with my very first bloggie post as one of La’s faithful minions.

Every day I go through the various galleries and see more and more amazing pages, pages that inspire me like crazy. There are a few scrappers that find their way into my favorites so often that sometimes I wonder if I have “favorited” their whole gallery! Today we are going to talk a little about Miss Brenda aka kaleandkiara. Get ready to drool all over her gallery here: Brenda’s gallery.

Brenda’s style is totally rad.  She rocks the white space like no other and she does an amazing job of scrapping those great every day moments.

So, with all that, I thought it would be super fun to go through Brenda’s gallery and find an inspiring page to lift. Talk about intimidating and so hard to choose just one page! Check out what I did and the others of La’s crazies did with Brenda’s gallery:

I lifted Smile.

Check out what Elizabeth did with Brenda’s page Playtime! I love how she flipped this baby!

Credits: You You You You You, Walk Along Side Me,  What I Like About You, Float Away, Girl Notes by La, and Glitter Bubbles by Zoe Pearn and DJB Merry font by Darcy Baldwin

Jenn lifted not one but two of Brenda’s rockin’ layouts!!

First, she lifted Prop Girl. Gorgeous pages, by both ladies!!

She also lifted Playtime.

Miss Melissa lifted Youheartme. Awesome choice!

Credits: Kraft Polkas, BFF kit, Lady Bugga Bugga, Walk Along Side Me, One Step Closer alpha by La; Bitty stitches 1 and Staple from Read It Again kit by Lauren Reid

Miss Debra lifted this beaut, which is one of my favorites by Brenda: Merry Go Round.

Used: What I Like About You, Borderline 2, I Don’t Want To Be Basic by La; DJB Poppyseed by Darcy Baldwin, and Back to Basic Waves - T. Stroud

So - if you need some inspiration, seriously - do yourself a favor and head over to Brenda’s gallery. You won’t be disappointed!

Over and out!
