The LRD team has been overflowing with inspiration on white backgrounds! We all scraplifted an awesome LO by Pixiedust and we have been going crazy with the white ever since! Check out a few of the LOs we have created:

Perhaps we are missing snow (probably not!) but whatever it is, we are definitely inspired by the WHITE!

Hello, it’s Keely here, today I’d like to take a few moments to shine a light on someone who radiates herself. I’m talking about Renee, aka Renee82.  I’ve know Renee for a good while now, I’ve been scrapping with her for years and I count her as one of my girls, a friend, though we’ve never met face to face. She is a wonderful scrapper, she puts heart into every page. Off the page, she’s a really fun, down to earth, kind person. I like to think of her as being very exotic, being from Canada and speaking French and all LOL. I could go on and on. Instead I’ll show you one of my favorite Renee creations and let some other folks chime in. Love ya’ girl! XO

Karen-Renee is such a sweet person, and her sense of joy comes through the screen whether you’re looking at her pages or getting to know her in a forum. I love that she does such an amazing job of capturing the little moments of her family’s life. I feel very privileged to have gotten to know Renee better since joining Lauren’s team and hope she knows how special she is to some of the friends she’s never met in person!!

Jen-Over the last few months, Renee has had some big life decisions to make, and she always, always, always puts her family as her first priority. She is loyal, devoted and loving, and I enjoy seeing how her scrapping reflects her heart.

Lauren-I love this lo for a few reasons… first because i VIVIDLY remember that feeling of being awake w/ my own babies and feeling as though i was the ONLY person awake! second because it totally captures renee’s “keepin’ it real” way…… it’s like having a true sister around all the time! Renee, you’re the best! Thank you for supporting me for SO LONG and for always being here for all of us… it’s such a pleasure to know you! xo

KellieP-I just love the way Renee truly captures the real moments in her layouts. I’m constantly amazed by her journaling! Plus, Renee and I have developed quite a sweet friendship & I’m so thankful that through my hobby of digi scrapping, I have found such a treasured friend.

….and their pick

Erica-Beyond Renee being a wonderful person and friend, I’m always inspired by her layouts. Her love for her family and the importance they have in her life shines through in both her photographs and journaling.

Robin-It has been lovely to get to know Renee. She is a great team member and a totally fun person to “chat” with smile.gif She is dedicated to her family, and it has been exciting to watch it grow from one child to two, and from one location to another. Hugs to you, Renee!

Steph-Renee was one of the first Digi-gals I met and we have been the greatest of friends since. We have shared the journey of a pregnancy together, the troubles of 2 year olds and just great laughs and it’s hard to believe we have never really met. She has the biggest heart and a great concern for others. I am truly blessed to have a great friend like Renee!

Thanks for joining us today, if you “see” Renee, give her a wave and stop by her gallery for some wonderful inspiration.

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Jen (aka jenbreeze) coming at you to spotlight TWO of Lauren’s new goodies. Here they are: Label Bitties and Label Bitties {alpha}.

I have to say, when I first saw them, I was a little stumped by to use them… but leave it to Lauren’s CT to come up with some amazing, creative layouts using these cool little labels! Overlapped, stuck on an edge, peeking out from behind - grab some inspiration from these Label Bitties in action:

by Barb

So if you’re looking for a great new alpha or that perfect little “something” for your layouts, check out Label Bitties and Label Bitties {alpha} at Lauren’s corner of Little Dreamer Designs.

Happy National Junk Food Day (NJFD)! What’s that? You didn’t know it was National Junk Food Day?? You actually had never heard of this craziness? Teehee! Me, either, but I thought it was the perfect jumping point for a fun LO about your secret love of skittles, your daughter’s sweet tooth, or your husband’s need for Barbeque chips (can you tell I speak from experience here?) We all know that eating is supposed to nourish our bodies with nutrients… yea, yea, yea. Sometimes, a girl just needs some junk food! What better day to indulge than today, the official national holiday for junk! For more inspiration regarding National Junk Food Day, go here!!

I don’t know about you, but music runs through most of my life in one way or another. Sometimes it’s just the background noise to a random daily activity. Sometimes I find myself seeking out a certain type of music to fit the mood I’m in. Sometimes I browse iTunes just to see what new sounds I can discover.

On days that I’m looking for inspiration while scrapping, I often find myself searching out the lyrics of songs I love. I actually write for a living, but there are times when I just can’t seem to find the words to express exactly what I’m feeling. There are also those songs that speak to me and make me deal with emotions that, once scrapped, help me cope or bring me joy.

In my searches for particular lyrics, I find LyricsAndSongs.com does the best job of listing obscure songs or artists with great accuracy.

If you need a mojo kickstart, why not try browsing sites with lyrics or quotes and see what you stumble across. I’ve yet to try it without getting at least a page or two out of the deal.

Be sure to leave us a comment if you end up scrapping a page with some favorite song lyrics. We’d love to see what you create!

–Karen
