Happy Friday Sweet Shoppers! Are you recovered from Digital Scrapbooking Day yet? I loved seeing all the pages everyone created and the fun games and challenges. What was your favourite part?

Today I get to bring you a preview of the Featured Designer Fan sale for Kristin Cronin-Barrow. You will not want to miss out on this great sale on everything in Kristin’s shoppe starting this Tuesday October 13th. Before we get to the preview of her sale, check out her Featured Designer kit one more time – you’ll still get this kit FREE with any $10 purchase in the Shoppe until Friday October 16th when our newest Featured Designer debuts. What better way to get this kit for free than to stock up on great items at a great price? Kristin said it best in her description – this kit is perfect for documenting the little moments that feel extra special. It’s a versatile mix of whimsical and pretty that works for everyday photos, wishes, dreams and everything in between.

Now check out the sale preview! I asked the SugarBabes to choose their favourite product of Kristin’s and scrap a brand new page with it, with a little description on why they chose the kit. As you can see they did amazing things with Kristin’s designs, and their pages really show the diversity of the types of kits in Kristin’s shoppe!

Krista chose As the Sun Goes Down: Bundle: I absolutely love the rich colors in KCB’s gorgeous kit! They pair so well with the lovely patterns and elements included in the bundle.

Mary decided on Hey there Pumpkin: The kit’s rich pumpkin orange and brown against the blue are what I love about this fall kit! It also has lots of leaves and florals for those of us that love to layer and layer!

Heather’s favourite is Life In Color: The Bright Side: All of Kristin’s Life In Color collections are amazing, but I think this one is my favorite! I love the boldness of the yellow mixed with black. It’s a huge collection with a fun mix of classic and artsy elements for any type of layout.

Mary played with A Lazy Summer: Collection: The colors of this collection is what first draws me in. I love these soft colors. This collection also has so many possibilities on how it can be used, which is ideal.

Suzanne chose Blue Skies Ahead: This collection just makes me so happy to look at it. It is absolutely packed with beautiful patterned papers and gorgeous elements. That the collection includes so many wordy bits makes my word art loving heart even happier!

Leeadra’s fave is  A Mountain Tale: My favorite aspect of Nature is the mountains. Their sheer size and longevity reminds me of how inconsequential my life is (in a good way) and how short it is, too, so I need to take the risk and do the things that scare me because compared to these same mountains, I’m only here for a second on Earth. You can probably now guess why this is one of my favorite kits of KCB’s! I love all of her Nature series but this one in particular goes so perfectly with my mountain photos that I’ve used it several times since its release.

And last but not least, Karli chose Cultivating Gratitude: I love playing with Kristin’s kits because I feel like they work so well with my style: a little bit of everything all at once. She has lovely paint splatters, messy stitches, and mixed media papers… but also a wide-variety of gorgeous traditional scrapbooking elements like flowers, foliage and butterflies. I am constantly impressed with her eye for color – like how this kit balances perfectly between the warmth of pinks and neutrals and the cool purples, blues, and indigos. It’s not what you might expect to find in a fall kit about gratitude, but it just works so well. I had this kit in my wishlist for ages and I am so glad that I was finally able to use it to bring this deeply meaningful page to life

That’s it for today, come back next Friday to see who our newest Featured Designer is. Until then, keep on scrapping!
