December Ad Challenge @ DSO!

This month, the inspiration is this ad from Target for Christmas. I received this email and just loved the look of this ad! I love the colors, the fabulous title, the way the background image fades into white, the rounded corners, the ribbon across the top corner, the way the text is all on one side, and the red gifts! Choose one or two things from this ad that inspire you and give it a go!!

1. Use anything from this ad – colors, angles, title, whitespace … anything that inspires you! Go for it! 
2. You must STATE in your layout description what it was in the ad that inspired your layout, and how you used that inspiration.
3. Please post by December 31st and post it to any gallery (our gallery will be closed until January 1st) and link it back to this thread.

When you post a link to your layout in this thread, I will send you a link to your posting gift shown here:

I hope to see lots of gorgeous layouts this month!!! You could really use this posting gift to scrap your Christmas layouts next month!!

Brazil Tradegy Strikes – Charity Kit…

My friends have just finished a charity kit to raise money for their area in Brazil which just recently got struck by very heavy rain, mud slides and well, think New Orleans in another country. The number of victims is still rising and the whole picture is just not looking pretty. here is a link to some news if you are interested in reading, go here: http://www.brazzilmag.com/content/view/10282/1/

Their fabulous kit will be selling at Sunshine Studio Scraps under their new designing name – ViVa – for only $3.00 (it’s a full kit with 9 papers, over 30 elements and an alpha) 100% of profits will be going to the cause. Here is a preview of it. 

Friends, let’s get right on this great cause and purchase this GORGEOUS kit – let’s help out their country that’s going through the same thing we did during hurricane Katrina. Please let me know here if you purchase this kit and link me up to your layouts!!!

Thanks for helping my friends!!!
