The Gilded Theater

A Night at the Theater

I've always loved the beautiful old restored theaters that can be found in different locations throughout the United States. My husband grew up in Erie, PA and we recently visited the beautifully restored Warner Theater there. Filled with velvet, gilt, gold and vintage wallpaper (undoubtedly a reproduction of the original), it is indeed a grand old queen.  I've included some of his photos of it below.

So that was my inspiration, although I went back to an earlier era before movies and placed my kit in Victorian times. The kit is designed to do fantasy layouts as well as heritage, vintage and every day ones.

And as always, this new kit is 25% off for its release.  Check it out here.



And my favorite part of posts about new kits: showing off the layouts created by the talented StarSongStudio CT team:

Are You a Book Lover? Free Hybrid Bookmark



Are You a Book Lover?

I've always loved reading and books have been a huge part of my life.  I have such wonderful memories of my mother reading to me as a child and even have some of those old books tucked away in my bookcase.  We lived close to the town library, a huge old Victorian house with crystal chandeliers, antique mirrors and best of all, as far as I was concerned, huge windows with cushioned window seats where I could curl up and read a book.


So Treasured Books is a kit I've been wanting to do for quite some time. And I was delighted that my daughter Dawn (Morning Sun Designs), who shares my love of reading, wanted to do it with me.


The page kit contains:
18 12"x12" papers
and 81 elements, created at 300 dpi, unshadowed




And some add-ons to go with the page kit.






And it was so much fun to see all the photographs of family members reading and enjoying books that the CT team produced.

Free Hybrid Book

I never seem to have enough bookmarks.  I usually have 3 or 4 books going at once and often multiple pages marked that I want to check again.  I love to collect bookmarks but my favorites are the ones I've made myself.

And I've created one for you today. It measures 6" x 2", perfect for printing out on a heavy card stock and then laminating it if you choose.  Or you could you can use it as a frame element in your digital layouts.  Just slip in a photos or text and your ready to go.



PS: The kit and the add-ons are on sale in all 4 of my stores at 25% Off for its release. And I've bundled them all together at a savings of 30% for your convenience.  Just press on the store links at the top of the upper right column.

New Collaboration Kit with Booland Designs


I had so much fun creating this collaboration kit with Booland Designs. A trip to one of the local gardens inspired me for this evening garden creation and provided me with lots of photographs of garden and architectural elements for extracting unique elements for the kit.  And as you can see from the photos below we created a lot of add-ons to complement and complete the basic kit.


And it's on sale for its debut at 40% off at all of my stores:



















And as always some inspiration from the talented StarSongStudio CT team:

Introducing my Collab Partner

   Boo aka BooLandDesigns
A little about your background….
1 When did you start Designing?  I started to play around with PSP and PS back in 2004 and became a store CT for the Studio when it opened its doors about 2005/6. I work with PS CS3 Extended at the moment. 
2 How did you chose your Design name ? My Partner Jay is always teasing me for having my head in the clouds and dreaming. He would say ‘there she goes, off to Booland again’ LOL.  It seemed fitting that I should have this ‘other’ world for my digiscrapping
3 Where do you live? I live in a lovely little seaside town called Southport sandwiched between Liverpool and Manchester in the UK
4 Tell us about your family ie, hubby, kids, etc? I have two grown up sons, Danny and Mike. Both have served long term in the British Army and both are married with children of their own and I live with my Partner, Jay and my youngest child Elly who is almost 13yrs
Getting to know you……
5 Do you have a ‘real’ job besides designing? I’m a qualified Early Years Educator but currently work full time on my Designing and LOVE it.
6 What is your favourite hobby besides Digi Scrapping? I have many but my favourite thing to do is listen to my partner play the violin, it’s just magical.
7 How long have you been designing? Something like 6 years now? I am old and forget things lol. I just turned 50 although in Booland that means I’m only 26. I like BooLand ;)
8 What is one of your pet peeves? Housework. I mean, who needs it? You clean, they mess, you clean again, they mess again, KWIM ;)
9 If you could travel anywhere where would you go? I have a huge list of places I want to visit but top of the list is to go see a real live Yankies Baseball game and catch a home run ball.
10 Tell us something about you that no one knows. A few might know I’m a big Cure fan but not many will know I actually used to write a fanzine for them back in the day called ‘the Curse’ (a pun on a joke Robert made in an interview). It was very popular and went all over the world and I was lucky enough to get to interview some great bands for it. My greatest regret is that I still haven’t seen the Cure play live. How sad is that? I just never seem to be able to save enough to go see them.
I love all the layouts my Blossoms make. I have an AWESOME team but these three are a good representation of the Inspiration you’ll find over in my Gallery

I'm a scrapbook addict. I've been involved with digital scrapabooking since July 2009, when my daughter introduced me to her favorite hobby. When I'm not scrapbooking (hmm, when exactly is that?), I'm enjoying life with my family including my two daughters and two grandsons, my husband Clemens and my Cavalier Spaniel, Vinnie. My hobbies include photography, reading, biking, and hiking.
