Sweet As Spring- DHD Blog Hop and FREE printable!

Hello everyone!  If you are here from Design House Digital, welcome!  I am so glad to have you "stop" by Sassy Sanctuary and I hope you'll follow along and join my madness.  To the rest of you (so you know whats going on) in order to celebrate the official coming of spring, we at Design House Digital bring you a sweet new blog hop, “Sweet as Spring!”


Start at the Design House Digital blog, and visit a series of blogs belonging to the Design House Digital creative team.   At each blog stop, you will learn something new from one of our Design House Artists and find a "clue."  You will need to follow the hop in order, write down the clues and put all the clues together to form a coupon code for the wonderful "Sweet as Spring" Mega kit!

Isn't it so pretty?!?!

Twelve designers contributed a total of 67 elements, 51 papers, and 4 alpha sets , and this gorgeous kit is a treasure worthy of the journey.  But, in addition, everyone who downloads the kit before Wednesday, March 27, will also be entered into a drawing for a $15 gift certificate to the Design House Digital shop!

But that's not all!  We have a challenge for you, too: build something amazing of your own!  Using just the Sweet as Spring collaboration kit (and your own photos, of course), create your own project and put it into our Sweet  as Spring Challenge Gallery.  If you post your project before April 17, you will be entered into another drawing for a $15 gift certificate to the Design House Digital shop, but the challenge gallery will remain open afterwards, and we would love to see your layouts any time.

If you are new to digital scrapbooking and would like to give it a try.  I use and LOVE the software Scrapbook Max.  You can download a free trial and see what you think.  And be sure to download the "Sweet as Spring" kit so you have some goodies to play around with!  But I have to warn you, once you go ditgital, you'll be hooked!!!

So now for the fun part.  What can you do with the faboulous kit?  Well... you are sure to create may beautiful layouts like this...


But one of my favorite things to do with digital kits is make banners and other "printables".  I've made banners for baby showers and other parties before, but this time I created a "spring" banner for my mantle.  Want to see?


I just love it!  It is such a cute addtion to my spring display.



If you want to make a banner of your own, they are super easy to do.  I just make individual images for each pennant of the banner.  Usually at 4x6, since that is a standard photo size.  Then print them on card-stock, cut them out, punch a couple holes, and string them together using ribbon.


But it gets even easier.  If you want to make MY spring banner, I'm including all the images as a free printable! Just click on each image to view it full size, save each image to your computer, print and assemble!
