< ------------- Ever notice "MY PATTERNS" link over there on the left side of my blog? Well, I try and update it when I can but this is by far the longest I have gone and the pile o'patterns on my scrappy table was gettin' outta control! LOL I finally spent some time today and got all caught up! Feel free to use my patterns for your own scrappy projects but please give credit for them and link back here! You can reduce and enlarge them pretty easily to fit the sizes you need. I thought instead of just posting the patterns (boring) I would post the specific project I created them for as well so you can have ideas on how to use them too! Sorry if you've seen these before!
Okay..... now for the CONTEST PART!!!!
I want to see how creative you can get using them! You can use ANY of them! Not just the ones pictured in this post! Create a card, layout, altered project or anything else you can dream up! Just be sure to come here and post a link in the comments to your creation or creations (create as many as you'd like!) by Midnight on Friday, October 3rd! That's only a week and a few days from now! I have a super fun prize to give away to one lucky winner including a copy of the October Scrapbook Trends and some NEW Bo Bunny goodies!!! This time I am going to actually pick a winner instead of doing a random drawing. I will have several people help me do the judging! Okay.... blah, blah, blah... enuff of that! Get creating!
Okay! I know I went a bit nuts with the samples but I hope you'll give it a shot! It's soooooo fun for me to see a boring little line drawing shape turn into a beautiful creative masterpiece! Have fun with it!

Hey Shanna!! I got a little card made using one of your templates. I absolutely loved that scrolly frame the minute I saw it and was inspired to try it out immediately. Posted it on my blog…I’m hoping this is the right link….

I think that music note is exactly what I need to do a layout with Makenna and her violin. I have been putting it off until I came up with something awesome.

Love your templates Shanna and they inspire me to make a simple wedding card - complete with embossed pattern paper, a painted bird and two wedding rings!
I’ve loaded it onto my blog and linked back to yours as well!

Here is my layout..I was originally gonna use the music note, but realized my only pics of Ash with her violin were really crappy. I’ll have to work on new pics so I can use the note! I did use your scroll frame as a journaling block and LOVE it. Thanks again, if I have time maybe I’ll try to squeeze in another project.

Shanna, this was just what I needed to get a little inspiration going! I loved the scallopy frame. I actually noticed immediately on that card you used it and posted a little bit ago and was super excited you posted a pattern for it. So, here is a link to a picture of a treat bucket I made using it:

And, by the way, I am actually having a contest on my blog and giving the treat bucket away…just FYI.
Thanks for the inspiration, my friend! You are amazing!
