SOD feature at The Robin's Nest!

Our August kit featured some gorgeous papers from various collections from The Robin's Nest.  Well, I am so excited to tell you that The Robin's Nest has decided to do a month long feature on Scraps of Darkness and our our amazingly talented designers on their blog!

The first post was last Wednesday, which you can find here.  Lisa Novogrodski and Celina Matthews were the featured designers, and you will see some of their fabulous designs in that post.

Today's post features the gorgeous work of Mandy Harrell and Cheryl Casas.  Please stop by The Robin's Nest Blog to see the post and all the wonderful scrapbooking products they have to offer!

Winner of July/September Skeletons in the Closet Challenge!

Please join in us in congratulating CHRISTINE for her wonderfully innovative layout titled

" Ocean of Secrets"

This challenge required scrapping an object not a person, and using a title, saying or quote that we would all be familiar with. The artist also needed to let us know how it related to her life.

Christine says:

"My quote is from none other than Titanic, one of my all time favorite movies. There are 3 reasons I chose this quote. 1-the ocean is my favorite thing ever. 2-I love the movie. 3-the quote rings true to me."

Congratulations Christine!  

Winner August Round Robin!!!!

SARAH

Sarah created this beautiful layout using the August "Envy" kit!

Congratulations Sarah on a job well done!

It's September 15th, the kids are back in school, and it's time to scrap again!

It's Reveal Day for our newest kit, Passages.  This month's kit features papers from that awesome new line by Bo Bunny - Etc., and from Teresa Collins' new World Traveler Line, as well as embellishments from both of those collectons, Vintaj Arte Metal, Jenni Bowlin, and we've thrown in some brand new Prima... 

We also have 5 Add On kits to compliment the main kit, creating endless possibilities for layouts and projects that can be done with the Passages kit.  You can see them on the Scraps of Darkness website.

Each month, Suepup designs a fabulous new sketch especially for our kits, and we have a Sketch Challenge based on that sketch on our forums.  This is the sketch she created for our Passages kit:

And I just love showing off the wonderful layouts the ladies on our Design Team have done with the sketch each month...

August Layout of the Month

August's Layout of the Month is.....

Us by Ashley VanEtten!



Ashley's page is so full of texture and detail! Don't you just love the fussy cutting, bling, and flowers? The spots she created on the page give it the feeling of being wild and the miniature frames are an adorable touch! Such a fresh and funky couple's layout!

Congratulations, Ashley!
