Pixel Scrapper April 2013 Blog Train-Birds and Bees

Marisa Lerin from Pixel Scrapper hosted a blog train.
People were given an open invitation to participate.
A color palette and theme was provided. (We voted on this part.)

With approximately a month to create something, I got to work.  I quickly realized that it was going to be challenging for me.  I worked at it almost every day, trying to decide what people might want in a scrapbook kit.  Finally, I came up with some papers and elements to share.  Here are previews for the digital scrapbooking kit that I've created.

I had so much fun, I didn't want to stop.  Fortunately, the blog train is going live on April 1. I had to finalize everything or miss the train.  This is no April Fool!  Since it's my first digital kit ever, I would greatly appreciate any comments you wish to share.    This was a little intimidating because many of the participants are experienced at this type of thing.   One of the greatest things was that there were also some newbies like me.  Everyone was so encouraging!  Your feedback will help me a lot, especially with designing the next kit!

After you download my parts of the blog train, please return here for the rest of the links.  I almost forgot-I'd love to add to my blog followers so please sign up if you're interested.

    Your kit is wonderful. I wish I had the ability to make kits like you guys do, but I just have to settle for making cards & scrapbooking with the wonderful kits you make. Thank you for all the work you put into this kit!

    What you created for this blog train is mind-boggling in both its beauty and quantity! Hard to believe you've never done this before, but perhaps that is the reason that you came up with such inventive, creative, novel ideas, and such a great variety of designs. I especially love the collage birds and art deco frame, the watercolor bee/flower papers and the cool bird design papers. Such work this must have taken! Thank you! ~ Violet

    I have been overwhelmed by the wonderful, positive comments people have left on my blog train contribution. I must admit I was a little bit unsure of how people would respond, since my work is often "outside the box." I am very appreciative that so many have taken the time to leave a comment. Thank you all very much! I will be creating more things like this in the future and I value your feedback!
