KB Custom Creations is hosting Mousescrappers Sept. Kit Challenge

I am so excited and honored to be hosting

Mousescrappers September 2013 Kit Challenge.

When I was deciding what theme to center the kit around, at first I had no idea.  But I couldn't think of a more appropriate theme than Wine and Dine!!! With the Free Disney Dining Plan, and the upcoming Epcot Food & Wine Festival, it just seemed perfect.

If you head over to Mousescrappers.com you've be able to download this yummy kit I created:

18 papers and 49 elements

If you take part in the challenge and post your layout to Mousescrappers

Here is the great Participation prize you'll receive:

Mousescrappers DC09 Freebie

It's been a few months, but I'm back to taking part in Mousescrapper's Design Challenge.  Things ran differently this month.  There were some wonderful kits put together with the selected color palette. But unfortunately, due to problems in past months, this month they won't be available for sale at the Mousescrapper's shop.  The only way to get these kits is to take part in the challenge.  It's open to all levels of designers, with very few requirements.  So if you like what you see, stop by Mousescrapper's and take part in next month's challenge.

But a few of the designers decided to keep the blog hop going and have created some wonderful freebies for you.  Be sure to stop by each designer's blog (and be sure to leave them some love when you pick up the freebies they've worked hard on).

Magical Minis

Each month one of my favorite things to do as a digital designer, is to take part in the Mousescrappers Design Challenge.  Designers are given a theme or color palette.  From that we design a mini kit.  These mini kits are then bundled together to be sold as a Mega kit at the Mousescrappers store.  

These mini kits are just so much fun.  I was so sad to see that the first three mega kits are no longer available in the Mousescrapper store.  So, in order still make them available to you, I've placed them for sale at my Scrapable store.

The first kit is Magical Mini 1-

 Great for all your circus, and flying elephant layouts.

Magical Mini 1

The second kit is Magical Mini 2

This kit will make scrapping your Monster layouts a real breeze.

Magical Mini 2

 The third kit is a template (my very first).

It includes both .psd and .png files.

For great savings, I created this Magical Mini Bundle.

It includes all 3 of the mini kit's posted above

 

Magical Mini Bundle

AND

This free magical mini bonus kit

(only available as part of the bundle)

The Bundle is a great savings

Separately the kits would sell for $5.97

but as a bundle you can purchase them for $3.50 

and get the bonus kit FREE.

Here are a few layouts by my great CT and the Scrapable CT
