Free Weekly Kit by Featured Designer: QueenBrat Digital Designs

 

Let’s welcome QueenBrat Digital Designs as this week’s Featured Designer!

Q&A With The Designer: QueenBrat Digital Designs


Who is a very special person in your life?
My Children and my grandchildren are the special people in my life. I am Momma to Freddy, Deniele, Zak & Dylan and Nanny to Riley, Remi Jade, Vinny and Rowan. They are my world and my reason for existing.  

What is the best gift you have been given?
Salvation! This sinner is forever grateful for God's greatest gift.

Do you collect anything?
I'm a huge Elvis Presley fan and collect memorabilia. Over the years I have collected newspapers, magazines, original albums, photos, figurines, etc... Two of my favorite pieces of my collection are an original concert poster from the 1950s and a limited edition Cabbage Patch Elvis doll sold only at Graceland.

What song would you say best sums you up?
Without fully explaining why because it would take the 60 years I've been living to completely explain, the song that best sums me up is "My Way". To be brief: Parents who should have divorced (better yet-never gotten married); Mother who is bipolar, narcissistic, and alcoholic; I Married at 18 to get out of the chaos; Dad died at 19 which destroyed me; I lived the next 12 years in a physically and mentally abusive marriage; Raised in the church so divorce was not an option.  At 30 yrs old, with four children, I had enough and filed for a divorce against the wishes of everyone in my family and against the beliefs of the church.  Life has not been an easy one.  My family has never fully forgiven me for the choices that I made. They, to this day, love my ex-husband.  I've struggled with bills and my children may not have always had the BEST, but they grew up knowing what it was to have a parent that loved them unconditionally. They are exceptional adults now!

What is your favorite thing to do to relax?
Designing, while my work, is also relaxing for me. But, my favorite relaxation tool is cuddling with my dog, Maggie, on the couch and watching movies.  My dog is my fur daughter and I would be lost without her...lol.


To finish off we would love to share some of her favorite layouts:

Layout from Made With Love

Layout from Blossoms Of Spring

Layout from Bit Of Blarney

DYL: Whimsical Easter by Diane (ADB Designs)


Whimsical Easter by ADB Designs is just about as "Easter-y" (but not religious) as you can find! This is an absolutely charming collection that's ideal for egg hunts, dinner with family and friends, and any Easter celebrations you may have at your home or a friend's home.

The color palette is traditional with soft blues, seafoam & green glass, daffodil yellow, lilac & orchid purples. The elements are just so cute! There are bunnies, stickers, a chick and a duck, ephemera, frames, word-strip stickers, ribbons, florals and foliage!

#206 Question/Scrapbooking Prompt(s)
  • Scrap an family celebration of Easter page (egg hunt, Easter finery, friends & family)
  • Scrap a Heritage Page with an Easter/Spring theme (Grandmother's new Easter hat, etc)

These prompts are ideas to help you get started. I also have a gift for you to help speed your page completion. With this stunning cluster (contributed by my amazing Creative Team Member. Dana) you can finish a page quickly. 

Be sure to keep scrolling for information about additional beautiful gifts from this collection!


I hope you find inspiration from the layouts of my awesome Creative Team. Here are their layouts along with the previews from the collection.





















I am so pleased when I see layouts created with my collections.  I would LOVE to have you share them with me via one or both of my challenge threads in the forum.
