Wednesday at RAKScraps Digital Scrapbooking Community - RAKS for All!

Digg it Add to del.icio.us Stumble it No Comment

Oh hello all!  First let me apologize for the lateness of this post.  For some strange reason, the Blog did not like me last evening.  Nothing I could do would make it work for me…and first thing this am, all was good.  Im thinking it was gremlins!  (I have gremlin spray and will use it next time!)

Now, with that out of the way, on to the good stuff!  This week, Im gonna dig into the CT Raks for All Forum and the RAKs for All forums.  There are so many goodies, previews, and links to goodies here that you can build a stash rather quickly with regular visits!  It is a great way to participate and get some wonderful digiscrapping goodies!

This week in the Creative Team Raks for All forum our own Angela of Toucan Scraps has put up a darling desktop QP for us to snag! Here is a preview:

ToucanS_FebMK_Desktop_640x480_

And she has included 3 different sizes!  How sweet is Toucan Scraps (Angela)!

You can get this lovely QP at the Creative Teams Raks for All forum.

 You need to be a member to view the download, but membership is free. And please don’t forget - a little thank you makes a designer very happy.

There is a tutorial here  on how to post a reply to the designer’s RAK.

And just in time too, as in April, I will be giving you all a great chance to use it!!! Along with another 2 or 3 RAKS in this catagory for you!  (I love tossing out tidbits of info to keep you wondering!)

Moving on over to the RAKS for All forum! Lets see all the goodies here!

**LilyBelle has a lovely Quickpage titled “Unforgettable”  available in this thread.  And LilyBelle has her True Love Papers link here!  (Ive already grabbed them and they are fab!)  She also has available some freebies for those Olympic pics you may have snapped during the airing of the Winter Olympics this year available here and here.

Unforgettable Quickpages

True Love

**Ladyofthethorns has a sweet freebie kit available here as well!

**Ann_Ominous has some freebie add-ons she has relisted.  Visit this thread to get your hook up on these! (there is some pet items, plaids, feminine, pinks, blues, oranges, greens, a really nice mix of something for everyone! There is also another Freebie by Ann_Ominous here!  Make sure you check it out!

**KB5785  (and I promise to get her name as soon as possible!) has a lovely St Patricks Day kit link up here.  Just in time for the St Patrick’s day holiday!  (Im part Irish, so I know I will be getting this lovely little kit!)

As you can see, the Creative Team Raks for All and the RAKS for All forums are just bursting with great free digital scrapbooking gifts!  When downloading all these great freebies, please be sure to follow the designer’s TOU’s and read through the RAKS For All Guidelines as well.  And a little note on their designs goes a long way to letting them know how much we appreciate them sharing their time and talent with us here at RAKScraps! 

An update on the challenges I think is in order as well.  We have so many going on each month! 

**Journaling Challenge With Bernadette - Each month Bernadette brings us new ideas to challenge us with our journaling, to help us make our layouts more meaningful and to help remember those special times, and thoughts.  This Months theme has to do with “Lists”.  Pop on over to read more and take part in this great challenge!

**Scrap From the Heart - Heather (Sparklyduck75 is presenting this challenge this month) and it deals with Healing.  Heather has listed some prose as well as some scripture for you to peruse and use in a layout about healing, whatever kind you may be experiencing!  A great way to continue the healing process through digital art (and that is just what digital scrapbooking is…ART!)  Make sure to post a link when you upload your layout, and you may just make the Tour De Gallery Challenge! (another fun challenge that is doing really well!)

**Sketch Challenge with Crosstown - Another lovely, inspiring sketch has been posted to give us some inspiration in our scrapping!  Use it as you wish, for ideas on placement, number of elements or photos, however it inspires you.  Make sure you leave a link when you upload your layout so we can all leave some love for you!

Also, the Members Mega Kit Challenge is still going on until the 14th of this month, so all you members who would like to design a kit to go along with the February Mega Kit, you still have time to get those in!  The ones so far have been fabulous!  And remember, these additional kits from our members are available for download to compliment the Mega Kit!

The February QuickPages from the Members are available in the RAK Center for you to download as well!  Make sure you are registered with the RAK Center to get the February Quickpages (and the ones that will be coming when the March Mega Kit comes out!)  With all of these, the Member’s challenge, and the Mega Kit, you will have a ton of digital scrapping supplies right at your fingertips, and the best part it, they are FREE!  I have seen no other digital scrapbooking site that does so much by, for, and with it’s members!  RAKScraps is a one-of-a-kind Digital Scrapbooking site!

As a final note, make sure you stop by 3Scrapateers and Scrapwow, our sister sites to see all the great digital scrapbooking supplies that they have to offer!

 

**A special note:  For all of you that follow Daylight Savings time, remember to turn your clocks forward at 2 a.m. Sunday morning!  (yep, losing an hour of sleep, but gaining an hour of daylight,  its a toss up here, we have been in the gray for so long, I am really looking forward to it this year!)

Until Next Wednesday!  Happy Scrapping from the Team at RAKScraps!

Good and Happy Wednesday to you all.  Im glad you all stopped by for another edition of the RAKScraps Blog!

The March 2010 RAKScraps Digital Scrapbooking Newsletter is out and it is just full of info, links to Newsletter freebies, challenges and a great tutorial on QuickPages! 

 And we have a new challenge, Tour De Gallery.  Tour De Gallery is a fun challenge that invites us all to get into the gallery more and look at all the great layouts and leave a little love and positive comments on them.  The challenge is laid out in the first post so be sure to jump on in and Tour De Gallery!  And the tour will take many different routes, with gallery hunts, games, and other fun activities each month!  And the prize for participation this month is an alpha set created by Floppy Latte Designs that will coordinate with the other great RAKS given out in the month of March! 

Designer Highlights:

We have two new Designers to highlight this month - Meredith Cardall and Garden Girl Designs. Be sure to stop by the forum and say hello, and check back frequently for challenges from these highlighted Designers!  Let them know how much we appreciate them.

Meredith has a freebie in the newsletter for all of us to download!  It is a great kit called  “Sweet Spring Sampler”.   Download this great freebie, create a layout and upload it to the Meredith Cardall Gallery and the lucky participants will recieve a great prize from Meredith!

Garden Girls Designs, our other highlighted Designer also has a freebie in the newsletter - a sweet little scrapkit called “Rachel”.  Download this free scrapkit and upload your layout to the Garden Girls Gallery and at the end of the month, the lucky participants will recieve a great prize from Garden Girls!

As always, there are a ton of challenges in the Forums at RAKScraps!  I try to list several each week:

This week, along with the Tou De Gallery challenge we have the -

**March RAKfile Challenge - What a way to put those freebies and RAKs prizes to use!  This month’s challenge, hosted by teddyprayer, is to use one of your prize kits to scrap a layout.  Any prize kit is fair game, and for you all who are new to RAKScraps, you can use a freebie from the RAKS for all Forum.  There are a lot of great kits there for you!  And for your participation, you will recieve this lovely collection from our very own Angela of Toucan Scraps!

 Thank you Angela for such a lovely RAK!  I can almost feel spring time!

**Quote Challenge with Heather - Heather and Joanne have put together some great word art relating to Spring for us to use in this challenge.  All about Spring Flowers!  Just download the word art and scrap some Springtime!

Have you ever wanted to make a Quickpage to scrap with or to enter the Quickpage Exchange?  Well, this month in the Newsletter there is a great tutorial on how to make a Quickpage.  It is a wonderful tutorial that walks you through, step by step how to create a quickpage from a favorite layout!  QuickPages are a great way to quickly scrap a page!

Remember the Quickpage exchange Quickpages are up in the RAK Center for all registered members to download as well!

The March Mega Kit will be available in the RAK Center for download starting on the 15th of this month!  Make sure that you get yours while it is available for 0 points!

And, when you have a moment, be sure to stop by 3Scrapateers and Scrapwow to see the great offerings at our sister sites!

Until my next post, have a great week!

Hello Everybody!  Happy Thursday!   I was just strolling through the forums at RAKScraps and what did I find????  One of our February Highlighted Designers is having a coupon give-a-way!  KissThisDesigns is longing for spring (as I think we all are) and wants to know our favorite flowers.  Just for posting your favorite flower, you will be entered into a drawing to win one of FIVE coupons to her digital store!  How sweet is that!  The drawing will be held and winners will be announced in the Forum on Sunday!  What a wonderful way to wish in the springtime!

 

So, if you would like to get entered into this drawing, hop  on over to the forum for KissThisDesigns and list your favorite springtime flower!  Thats it, and you will be entered into the drawing.  You can bet I have put in my entry.  I love give-a-ways, and I love coupons!
