New Mystery Machine Templates!!!

Hi everyone! Hope you are having an amazing start to your February! I have a new template pack for you. One of my dear customers requested a template pack with more than one photo so I have done just that with Mystery Machine. Why the crazy name you ask? Well the colors totally reminded me of Scooby Do and the Mystery Machine van the gang drives. My daughter loves Scooby Do!

Here are some gorgeous pages for inspiration from my amazing CT!


See you soon!

2012 Calendar Templates

Happy New year everyone!

Well the new year has started off pretty good so far! Getting excited for my birthday coming up in February and my niece also turns 1 year old two days before mine.
My little boy will be three in April but before that is Digiscrapapalooza in Vegas is at the end of March. So lots of good stuff planned for the first part of the year.

If your schedule may seem just as busy as mine, then a calendar might be just the thing you need! I know I am a bit late with the calendar project,
but the holiday season was just too busy for me to complete it before the end of the year.
If you don't need a calendar or already have your done, you can use the 12 toppers as regular templates.
So this can be a calendar set or a big bundle of templates. Kind of two products in one...hee hee!
Some inspiration from my amazing CT!!!!


Hope you have a great January! Stay tuned for more new goodies soon!!
Love you all so much!!

Hugs,
Gina

Calling All The Monsters

My daughter just loves the new song by China called Calling All The Monsters and I have to admit I love it too. She even gets her little brother to sing along with her.

2 New Mini Kits and an Alpha Pack

Hi everyone! I hope you are enjoying the beginning of the fall season. It is starting to get a little cooler here in Florida but not much. Our cool weather will most likely start more in November. I bet you are all getting in the swing of things now that the school year has begun. I know feel like chickens running around with out little heads cut off trying to keep up with all the homework and after school activities. My little girls is in 2nd grade and has quite a bit of homework every night and I have been helping her with that which has left me a bit less time for designing so you may see my new items come out a bit less frequently now that the school year has begun. She also is in a hip hop cheerleading group. This will be her third year but now she is also in the competition group too. This should be fun! She also is in Girl Scouts for her 2nd year and of course religion classes. She will make her first communion this year. We are very excited!! Also this Monday she will start Violin lessons. I played when I was younger and she is just jumping out of her skin with excitement. She has been wanting to take lessons for over a year now. Now they are finally offered at her school. Yippee!!!!

On another note, Sept 1st, I was in another car accident. I am okay and so are my kiddos. It is my third accident since 2006. None of them were my fault and all the other people involved were issued the tickets. But this one, the other person who hit me is lying about what happened to her insurance company and while the police officer issued her a ticket, her insurance company is dragging their feet on this. My car still isn’t fixed, I need a new car seat and it is just frustration all around. I started seeing my chiropractor again for my injuries. We will have to wait and see how this will all turn out. Well enough of me chatting. I know that when I get newsletters from some of my favorite designers, they talk to me a bit in their newsletters and I feel like I know them so much better so I thought I would share some of what has been going on in my life with you. I wouldn’t be where I am without you, so thank you so much from the bottom of my heart.

I recently participated in the DSA Designers Apprentice Contest and I have two mini kits this week along with a matching alpha for one of them. So if you did not get the chance to get them at DSA, they are in my store now. One is Bloomin Spring with a matching alpha pack. Four different alphas in the alpha pack and then I have Summer in the City.


Just a reminder that if you sign up for my newsletter to the right,
I always give out freebies or coupons to say Thank You!!

Here is some inspiration for you from my wonderful CT girls!


I will also be participating in Shabby Pickle’s October collab so look for that the first week of October.
Here is a sneak peek for you.

I have some ideas for my next kit and hopefully soon I can squeeze in another template pack for you. If you have any ideas for a certain kind of kit or template pack you would like me to make, I can try my very best to make them. You can email me at ginabarnaba@yahoo.com with your requests and I will set up a list and see what I can do.

I also have two more weeks at my guest spot at Ginger Scraps. I have an exclusive template pack there called Filler Up so if you haven’t grabbed it yet, you may want to before my guest spot is over.

Facebook!!! Whoo hoo, yes, I am still trying to reach my goal of 1000 fans and we are getting super close to reaching our first goal of 500 fans. So if you know of anyone who you think would like my style have them friend my fan page here: Lilacs in Bloom and have them leave a comment in reference to the contest and when I reach the 500 fan mark, I will give away to a random fan a $50 coupon to my store. I will do this for every 100 more fans I get until we reach 1000. You do not have to comment more than once and you do not have to be a new fan. You just need to comment about the contest so I can know who is participating. Then I will have a drawing. Perhaps I might even put a video of how we picked the winners on You Tube so you can see. I think that might just be tons of fun!

Well, hope you are have a super fantastic weekend with your families and I will see you soon!

Hugs,
Gina

NEW Lemonade Crunchy Ice

Hi everyone! I hope you are enjoying your summer! I have a new kit called Lemonade Crunchy Ice. It was inspired by my little girl. She has this clapping rhyming song she does with her girlfriends and now her little brother chimes in too. Also summer, to me, is lemonade and watermelon. When I was little we used to have lemonade stands and play in the backyard, swim and eat all kinds of citrus fruits. I hope you enjoy this kit and can scrap many pages with your summer photos.

I also have a matching Add On too! My newsletter subscribers will be getting the Add On for free. So be sure to sign up for my newsletter to receive future coupons and freebies! For a short time, July 22-24, if you buy the Lemonade Crunchy Ice Bundle, you too can get the Add On for free.
