Frames Frames and More Frames

Yes, I am back with another Freebie!  This weeks Designer Survivor Reward Challenge had us creating lots of frames.  Well, only one frame per person, but there's lots of frames to be had.  For a chance at immunity we each had to create a frame using at least one element from our previous two weeks kits and something new.  This was a lot harder than it sounds.  Week one we created a Dr. Seuss inspired kit and last week we created a camping kit.  Talk about different ends of the spectrum.  In the end I think they all came out great.  If you want to see them all head on over to the Brownie Scraps Gallery.  There are 16 great frames to grab.

Here's the fun part!  Yes, these frames are free but in return I am asking a favor from all of you.  Our team would really really really love to win immunity this week.  This would be huge for us.  Please go over to the Designer Survivor blog and vote for the Staples team.  Your vote does count and we would be forever grateful.  So what are you waiting for?  GO VOTE 

Here's the great set of frames The Staples team created for you:

Vintage Fall Paper Freebie

Let's continue to freebie trend.  This week's Designer Survivor Reward Challenge had my new team creating a Vintage Fall Paper Pack.  I have never scrapped many vintage type pages so it was definitely a challenge to work on this paper pack.  Each member of our team created two solids and two patterned papers with a specific color.  I had a sort of rust color and the paper came out pretty well.  Here's what my part looks like:

And here is the team pack:

You can find the links to all the teams papers in the Brownie Scraps gallery.

If you don't mind taking just a moment of time to vote for this weeks winner, I would greatly appreciate it.  If you are so inclined, I would be forever in your debt if you would PRETTY PLEASE vote for the Ric Rac team Memories of Fall paper pack.  PRETTY PLEASE WITH SUGAR ON TOP!  Ok, enough of my shameless begging.  The voting will be up a little later at the Designer Survivor Blog.  So after you check out all of the lovely entries, please go vote for the Memories of Fall paper pack by the Ric Rac team at the Designer Survivor Blog.

I hope you enjoy your freebies.

Cirkus Wirkus - Seussy Freebie

Designer Survivor has kept me super busy this week.  Working on a collab with my team has definitely been a challenge I wasn't prepared for.  In the end, I think the Green Team kit came out perfect.  You can pick up our kit for free along with eight other super kits at Brownie Scraps!  There are no votes from outsiders for this challenge.  Just like in the real Survivor show, each of the participants had to vote out someone.  The competition is really good so it was really hard to pick someone. 

Here's our submission:

This freebie will be available for a limited time so if you like it go to Brownie Scraps to grab it right away. 

Cute little fishy alpha freebie

I know it's been forever since I posted here.  I have been in a bit of a design rut and haven't created anything until the last few days.  TO make up for it I have a freebie for you today.

First I have to share something with all you digital scrapbooking wannabes.  I don't mean that in a negative way at all.  I know that some of you would love to learn digital scrapbooking but don't have the programs necessary or don't want to make a large monetary investment.  Well, I found the answer for you.  Artscow is a printing company that does photo books and many other personalized products that you create yourself.  They have many free kits available to use to create your own designs.  In fact, I have posted almost all of my past blog freebies for others to use there.  I'd love it if you sign up and add my free kits to your stash.  There's a little contest going on there and I am so close to the top.  I'd love to win.  You can visit there site by clicking HERE.  You can see my free kits by searching for Kathi Bothwell.

Now on to the freebie...I have joined the Designer Survivor challenge at Brownie Scraps and our team has posted three beachy themed alphas.  You can find them in the Brownie Scraps gallery or contribution is HERE.  Please visit the Designer Survivor blog ASAP to vote for your favorite alpha sets.  Voting starts at 12 midnight PST and ends at 3 PM PST on 08/05/09.

Here's a preview of our alphas:

The day after...

I hope you all had a fabulous holiday weekend. I am still recovering from the long day yesterday. Although it was kind of cool and the sun stayed in hiding all day, we spent some time at the beach and went to see the fireworks. This kids had a great time. We were all pretty much spent by the time we got home. Today was spent relaxing at home and spending some good quality time together.

I hope you all have a great week. I hope to be back soon with some new goodies to share.

Please ignore the rest of this post. I need to put it out here for technorati. d5rqngvm8a
