Party Time!

Party Time!

Hip hip hooray! It’s National Scrapbooking Day (NSD)! Can I hear some cheering? Some hootin’? A little hollerin’? This is our day, friends! So, let us unite and celebrate all that scrapbooking is about—making connections, preserving memories, creative self expression and, of course, delicious products.

Today’s holiday is brought to you by the letters N, S and D. Sure, there’s the obvious reason for this (it’s the acronym for the name), but there are other good things behind these letters. Let’s break this thing down.

N: New Stuff

With giveaways on our blog every other hour today (from 9–5, MST), several of you will have new goodies to add to your stashes before the day is through. Yes, these giveaways are for today and today only, so I’m glad you stopped by to participate in our celebration when you did. Plus, everyone walks away a winner with our free downloads (below). Sweet!

S: Savings

There are many deals and NSD promotions going on today. I’m going to give you the scoop on where some of those can be found.

D: Downloads

It wouldn’t be a scrapbooking par-tay if we didn’t offer cool favors, so we’re offering plenty of free downloads. Let’s get to them, shall we?

FIND FREE FONTS

In honor of NSD, you can download the following fonts for free by clicking here:

1. CK Anecdote

NSD GIVEAWAY #1

Now, let’s get to our first giveaway. In order to enter, I need you to download one of the magazine covers, drop in your own layout and post the personalized cover image somewhere on the internet where I can see it. This can be your blog, your FB account (as the profile image in case I’m not already your friend, or you can add me as a friend, which would also be nice), the CK online gallery, Flickr, anywhere. Once you’ve got your cute cover image up, please leave me a link to where it is in the comments section of this post. From the links I receive today (and today only), I will randomly select three winners to receive the following prize package:

nsd prize1 Party Time!

The package shown above includes: the complete (and beautiful) Lovebirds collection from SEI; a copy of Snippets: Mostly True Tales from the Lighter Side of Scrapbooking and an autographed Snippets bookplate (signed by author Lain Ehmann); and a copy of Stacy Julian’s super popular book, Photo Freedom.

I can’t wait to see your easy, breezy, beautiful covers, girls (and guys).  icon wink Party Time!

Thanks for coming to the party, my fellow NDS celebrators. I’ll see you back here again later today (11:00 AM MST) for another post and some more giveaway action!

Cheers!
Megan

P.S. Check back next post (later today) for an exciting challenge announcement. It’s called “CK & Me” and I think you’re going to like it. icon smile Party Time!

    Bummer…I don’t do 8 1/2 x 11 layouts…so I don’t have one that will fit this. Guess I just have to wait for the next chance to win and hopefully I’ll be able to enter…

    How fun! Here’s mine. I had to use a 12×12 layout since that is all I do and just crop and deform a bit. So it looks a bit odd but still lots of fun and I am a cover girl!!!
