At the Park blog train

Happy July to you! I can't believe the first half of the year is behind us already! The good news is that I've stuck to at least one of my New Year's Resolutions I made this year: regular exercise. I've gotten to the point where when I don't get activity I get a bit cranky. :)

A new month means a new blog train for you from the members of Stuff to Scrap. Our theme this month is "At the Park." If you're anything like me, you take LOTS of pictures during the summer. I created a couple of brag book templates to help you scrap those pictures. The download includes .png, .psd, and .tiff files so you should be able to use them no matter what program you use. The pages are 5x7 in size and can be easily re-sized to fit your needs.

Download has expired.

Here is the list of the rest of the designers taking part in this month's blog train. If a designer doesn't have her portion posted yet, please check back as we're spread out across the globe. Also, be sure to grab each portion by the 15th of the month. After the 15th, designers are free to put their potion of the blog train into their store(s). My templates will remain available until the end of July.

New Template set by Britt

Britt has a new set of templates out today. She was looking for some help in creating layouts with them and I had some pictures that needed scrapping, so I offered up my help. You can pick up the templates in her store.

I created two different layouts with her templates. I used Seren-dipity, the May 2011 mega collab from the Stuff to Scrap designers for my first layout.

For my second layout, I used portions of a kit, Serenity, that I'm fine-tuning. The kit will be released in July.
