Introducing our latest: The Garden Book Club Collection

Dear Ladies,

I trust this message finds each of you in good spirits. In the rollercoaster of life, there are moments when we may feel a little disheartened. Yet, it’s during these times that reflecting on our blessings can infuse us with renewed vigor, inspiring us to carry on with a smile.

This week hasn’t been my shining moment. I encountered hurdles that threatened to derail my creative flow for our latest collection. Moments of doubt crept in, and I found myself grappling with unforeseen challenges.

Nevertheless, I summoned my resolve and set about breathing life into my sketches for our new kit, aiming to create something truly enchanting for fellow book enthusiasts—a kit brimming with whimsy, joy, and delight. And thus, the “Garden Book Club” was conceived. Care to join me on this delightful escapade? Come along!

As an avid reader, particularly fond of period romances and captivated by the works of Jane Austen, I was tempted to center the collection solely around her literary universe. However, I resisted, ensuring that this collection would be a treasure trove for all, irrespective of their literary inclinations.

Peruse the enchanting examples curated by the talented ladies from shop team and my own dedicated team. Immerse yourself in the endless possibilities this collection offers.

That’s all from me for today. Wishing each of you a splendid weekend ahead.

Embracing Change: A Special Collaboration with Studio Basic Designs

Hello, dear readers of my blog! This week, I am thrilled to present to you a very special kit that holds a significant place in my heart.

If you’re familiar with Rúbia, the talented designer behind Studio Basic Designs, you’re in for a treat. This week, we’re unveiling a stunning collaboration that has been a long time in the making. It’s been a year since I rediscovered my love for scrapbooking, and from that moment, I’ve harbored the desire to create something extraordinary with Rúbia. Time seemed to stretch, but fate finally smiled upon us, allowing this wonderful opportunity to materialize.

What’s fascinating is that Rúbia and I reside in the same country, albeit in different states. Despite the physical distance, our shared passion for scrapbooking brought us together several years ago at a scrapbook fair. It’s a testament to the immense sense of community that scrapbooking fosters – no matter how far apart we are geographically, we are united by our love for scrapbooking.

Our collaboration kit serves as an invitation for personal reflection, urging you to embrace change and thrive amidst life’s storms. Prepare to be mesmerized by its beauty!

But that’s not all – this week, we’re also unveiling three exciting relaunches. I’ve been steadily working on adding my products to the SSD catalogue, and I’m thrilled to share these gems with you. Whether you’re a seasoned follower or a newcomer to my blog, don’t miss out on the irresistible discounts available this weekend.

Exciting Updates and New Collection Launch!

Hello, dear readers, how are you all?

It was strange not being here for a week, but I hope you’re excited about the news I have to tell you this week. After all, this week we have an incredible launch of the “Just Keep Going” collection, which is an invitation to the new year to make our resolutions, remember the good things that happened to us in 2023 so that we can be stronger in 2024 and continue despite the obstacles that appear.

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is 1704390637-SD-Just-Keep-Going-collection.jpg

I invite you to explore this new collection and take advantage of the 60% discount valid until January 16th. And, as the entire store is offering a 50% discount on all items this month, the individual packs from this collection are also part of this great celebration if you prefer to have just one part of the collection.

The girls on the team made some examples for you to better understand the elements of this beautiful collection; let’s take a look:

I took advantage of one of the elements in this collection to make a mini tutorial for you to see how to use this feature and customize it as you prefer. Go to the blog to watch, and don’t worry; I’ll also explain how to generate automatic subtitles on YouTube so you can see them in your language.

I think that’s it for today; I hope you all enjoy this week’s releases and have a great weekend!

Hugs,

Kel

How to use the editable photo in the Vellum pocket element from the new ‘Just Keep Going’ collection?

Hello! I’m excited to introduce a new series to the blog, featuring tips and tutorials on using elements from my products. I’ll also share valuable insights to make your scrapbook pages more realistic and beautiful.

In this inaugural tutorial, I’ll guide you through using an element from the latest collection. However, you might notice that this editable element is also available in other collections, presented in .TIF format. It can be opened in Photoshop for easy customization with the photo or paper of your choice.

To make things even simpler, I’ve created a quick and easy video to help you understand how to incorporate it into your pages. The video is in Portuguese, as my spoken English isn’t that great. But don’t worry! Below the video, I’ve provided instructions on how to enable automatic subtitles on YouTube, so you can watch it in your preferred language.

How to generate automatic subtitles in my language on Youtube?

1. Click on the Settings (Gear) Icon: Look for the settings icon, which is usually represented by a gear symbol. You can find it at the lower-right corner of the video player.

2. Select “Subtitles/CC” Option: Click on the “Subtitles/CC” option from the menu that appears after clicking the settings icon.

3. Choose “Auto-translate”: Within the “Subtitles/CC” menu, there should be an option called “Auto-translate.” Click on it.

4. Select Preferred Language: A list of available languages will appear. Choose the language you prefer for the subtitles. YouTube will automatically translate the subtitles into the selected language.

5. Adjust Settings (if needed): Some videos may have additional settings, such as font size and color. You can adjust these settings based on your preferences.

6. Enjoy Watching with Subtitles: The video should now display subtitles in your chosen language. Enjoy watching the video with automatic subtitles!

Discover other products that have this element for you to personalize:

  • Time to Hygge {+ephemera}
  • Let it Snow kit 
  • Happy Thoughts kit

I hope you enjoy the tutorial, and if you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comments.

Hugs,

Kel

Exciting News: Officially a Permanent Member of Oscraps!

Today I came to tell you some big news here.

I’m now a permanent member of Oscraps, and I’m so happy to be back. Last year was a year of changes and adaptations, and I’m thrilled to have had the courage to return to the world of scrapbooking; it makes me feel so good.

I appreciate the freedom I have in the store, the way we help each other, and how Vicki runs the store. It makes me feel comfortable where I am, so I decided to stay there.

To celebrate this month, the store is offering a 50% discount so you can add your favorite products to your cart.

This year, the collections will only have a 60% discount for a limited time; then, they will have a 40% discount. It’s still a great offer for those who want the full experience for their projects.

More girls have joined the team, and we have lots of new pages with our kits from last year. See some of them here:

This year, I’m starting my selection of commercial products, and I began the year with a Journal card calendar that’s great to give as a gift. I made a personal version for you to print and give as a gift to friends.

Of course, we have two beautiful new freebies. One is already available in the store, and the other will be sent to subscribers of the Oscraps newsletter. I will send it to mine too, so if you missed out, subscribe right now.

Next week, I’ll be back with a beautiful collection. Stay tuned!

hugs,
