Papier Creatif Freebie: Digital Cupcake

Here's a super cute Cupcake FREEBIE for Everyone from my Some Birdy! "Chevron Stripes & Cupcakes" mini*works collection!

Time for me to catch my breath and organize for the remaining part of the month!  Do you all go through little rituals before tackling a project?  For instance, I have to pick-up my office BEFORE settling into design every week or two.  This habit was definitely reinforced *inspired* by my Mom telling me as a teenager, "Before you go anywhere, CLEAN YOUR ROOM!"  LOL!  So, to catch my breath is more like clearing my head by doing mundane, yet necessary tasks *chores* like house and yard work.  I always feel so much more productive after it's done albeit begrudgingly sometimes!  It clears dusty old ideas out of my head and makes way for new ones!  And I love admiring how pretty it all looks in the end and that it's off the To Do List!

Promise me that you'll do something before Mother's Day weekend, like clear off your desks, spiffy us a cluttered room or space and for your reward, enjoy a cupcake!  Here's to all the Moms who made us clean our rooms.  Would luv to hear what project you pick.  Comment back if you'd like to share what you've done!  Crank up the music and get 'er done!!!

Blog Event: SDD Cardinal Pick of the Week - SPORT Club Golf Digital Scrapbook Kit



SPORT Club Golf*

My oldie but goodie, SPORT Club Golf* was chosen as Scrappity-Doo-Dah's Cardinal Pick of the Week on their BLOG - for the Week of April 26th!  Available at my STORE.

"Elaine here and this week I am featuring Sport Club Golf by Papier Creatif. This kit has 24 papers and 49 elements in shades of blue and green. Even though the kit was designed with a golf theme, it is very versatile and would be suitable for many of your scrapbook pages.  I am also thinking ahead to Father’s Day and Graduation this is the perfect kit for cardmaking and your hybrid projects!"

Want a closer look at this WAY-TRAD sporty kit?  The word about SPORT Club Golf* is "detailed elements with great textured papers"!  There are Photoshop Brushes of marquis, scorecards, swooshes included in this kit, as well as golf quotes of professional golfers such as Al Barkow, Arnold Palmer and Sam Snead.


Grungy photo frame, earthy cluster perfect for accenting golf pics and antique golf-style frame!





Detail of Quick Layout Using the Photoshop Golf Brushes in SPORT Club Golf*

18 Marquis Brushes!  
Do a color overlay in Photoshop to make the brushes your golfer's favorite color.
Resize Photoshop Brushes to use as cool background graphic for your papers as shown here 
or small accents for photo frames.  

The earthy elements - we golf Moms all appreciate 
the beautiful landscape on the golf course!
I have LOTS of nature photos from tournament events!



Personally, I love the Grip It & Rip It Sticker!
It's so *me* and I tell my son that all the time before his tournys!




I wanted to do some special elements with golf tees and divot markers.
By the way, "divot" a pice of turf dug out of a grass surface, esp by a golf club
or horse's hooves. [from Scottish, of obscure origin]




Another detailed look at the elements.  Chunky, cool, "trad".




If only, as Golf Moms, we could impart knowledge
to our kids and actually have them listen!
Don't worry too too much -- it DOES get better . . .




Gotta Golfer Granduating Soon?

Wire 3 drivers together for a floral arrangement!
I used paper covered florist wire so not to scratch.
{Like they haven't been thrown before - LOL!}
And used a bit of styrofoam in the center to build upon ...
see the golf ball hidden in there?
An orchid, grass, dried mushroom and simple wire ribbon streamers
and some cool green twine cascading down.

The graphic on the table of him?
I designed and gave one to every member of his golf team!

Why haven't I scrapped all this?
I am busy designing stuff for you guys!!!




This is my family!
My husband, two daughters and one happy Mom & Son!
My husband often looks like a deer caught in headlights! LOL!


So to be fair, here's a decent photo of him ;)


Okay! Better!



My Brother's Fam . . .



My Sister's Fam . . . we missed Josh!



My Mom & Dad with Mas!
