Some Design Team work with Nevermore

It's been two days since the release of our October kit, and I thought it was time to show off a little bit of the work our Design Team did with it.

Mandy Harrell did an amazing job with our Alice's House Kit:

And just one of the gorgeous layouts she did:

Nevermore

It's October 15, only 16 days left until Halloween, and we've got the perfect kit to scrap all those pictures I am sure you will be taking!

We've chosen patterned paper from 2 of the most awesome Halloween lines out there - Haunted by My Mind's Eye and Hocus Pocus by Pink Paislee.  The embellishments have all been carefully selected to coordinate with these papers beautifully, and include items by Prima, Maya Road, Shimmerz, and more.

Our Cardstock-Add-On Coordinates wonderfully with this kit, as seen below:

And our Romance Add-On is full of wonderful embellishments to compliment the main kit:

For the first time this month, we are offering a project add-on, Alice's House, which includes the chipboard villa house from Maya Road along with their mini-album, papers from Graphic 45's Halloween in Wonderland line, 2 colors of cardstock, and embellishments to decorate these goodies.

And last but not least, the fabulous sketch created by Craftysprinkles especially for our October kit.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend!

October Guest Designer!

I am thrilled to have Cheryl Casas, aka C Mom Go, as the Guest Designer for October's Kit!

Here's a little bit about her:

Hello everyone, for those of you who don't know me, my name is Cheryl aka C Mom Go.  I am 30 years old, married with 3 kiddos and I work as a massage therapist.  I recently started to take scrapping seriously a little over a year ago.  I am so thankful for this passion of mine.  It really gives me the sense of calm that I often need.  Plus I have been so blessed with meeting so many wonderful people that I am forever grateful. I just love darker layouts!!!  Anything from Gothic to punk and all that is in between!!  Halloween is my favorite obsession, oh I mean holiday lol.  So to me it is truly an honor to be the Guest Designer for the October Scraps of Darkness Kit!!!

And I'd like to share 2 of my very favorite layouts that Cheryl had done:

I cannot wait to see what Cheryl does with our October Kit, and hope you will all check back tomorrow to see what she and out other talented designers have come up with!

October Blog Challenge

It's October!  Halloween is quickly approaching, and any of you that know me, know that I live for Halloween year 'round!

The October Challenge is a really simple one - show me your Halloween layout!  Now I know this is Scraps of Darkness, but for this challenge, I am letting up on the "dark" part!  I don't care what kind of Halloween layout you do - it can be cute (love seeing the little ones trick-or-treating!), or funny, or scary, or beautiful.  Do your Halloween layout any way you like.

Simply create a layout between today, October 5, 2010, and October 31, 2010 and upload it to your favorite scrapbooking gallery.  Mention in your description that it was done for the Scraps of Darkness October Blog Challenge, and please don't mention any other kit clubs in you description, as it's not fair to either kit club, and also make sure you are a follower here on the Scraps of Darkness Blog. Then leave a comment on this post with a link to your layout, and you will be entered into a random drawing to win our Simply Steampunk Main Kit, shown below.

Happy scrapping, and be sure to check back on October 15 for the reveal of our new kit!
