May 2026 Template Bundle, Paint Chips: Blue Skies, May Bake Sale + FREEBIE

 Happy Friday!  Today Connie has two brand new products for you.  Templates and an addition to the Paint Chips series are ready to join your stash and create more beautiful projects.  In the May 2026 Template Bundle you will get 16 templates in four different styles for $5.99.




The top two layouts were also made with today's new Paint Chips kit.  

Paint Chips Blue Skies

Paint Chips: Blue Skies is a fresh and uplifting scrapbook collection inspired by open skies, peaceful moments, and the beauty of slowing down to enjoy life’s simple things.

Designed in a cheerful palette of vivid sky blues, sunny yellow, and soft creamy white, this collection captures the calm, hopeful feeling of a perfect day beneath endless blue skies.

The kit includes beautifully detailed watercolor elements such as a monarch butterfly, a delicate bird’s nest with eggs, a brown thrasher, fluffy clouds, glowing sunshine, and dreamy blue sky imagery that bring warmth and serenity to every page. These nature-inspired pieces pair perfectly with the soft, airy feel of the collection.

To make layering easy and versatile, Paint Chips: Blue Skies also includes plenty of coordinating fillers and embellishments including flowers, greenery, ribbons, ephemera, paper bits, labels, and textured accents designed to add depth and softness to your layouts.

The word art focuses on peaceful living, gratitude, and everyday beauty with phrases like:

All Is Well
Breathe It In
Keep Looking Up
Simple Days
Peaceful Moments

Perfect for documenting quiet mornings, spring and summer days, outdoor memories, nature walks, family moments, or simply the beauty found in everyday life, Paint Chips: Blue Skies is a calming, heartfelt collection filled with light, hope, and fresh air. ☀️☁️🦋


Today also kicks off the May Bake Sale at Ginger Scraps.  Connie has picked the #2024 May collection to offer for $1.50 for each product.  If you are missing this from your stash this is a wonderful opportunity to increase your scrapping stash.



Thank you for stopping by the blog today and checking out all the new products and the Bake Sale. I hope that you are inspired by the lovely layouts from Connie's Creative Team. Today's freebie is an adorable cluster made with #2026 April from CTM Kelly.


Have a beautiful Friday!

Sneak Peek Sunday and Quick Pages

Happy Mother's Day to all the Moms, Grandmothers, Aunts, and stand in moms out there today.  I hope that today you know that you are appreciated and loved.  My sweet husband has been working on creating a sitting area/shade garden for the past month as a gift for my birthday that was in April, Mother's Day, and our upcoming 31st Anniversary.  I'm looking forward to being able to sit out there in the mornings and late evenings to read, crochet, and just soak up some priceless moments of peace.  It's something we've talked about for years and now the trees that we planted about 20 years ago have matured and provide the perfect shady spot.  We started the shade garden last year and add a little more to it each Spring and hope to enjoy it for many years to come.  What project have you been working on?

Connie has a couple new products on their way this week.  Here is a peek at all the goodness!



If you are looking for a way to put together a project quickly, Quick Pages might be the way to go.  Connie just released these two new packs for you to consider.


I'll be back Tuesday with a look at the two kits that Connie puts into this week's sale bin. Here is a sweet Quick Page Freebie for you with multiple photo spots that CTM Karen created with #2025 February. Thanks for visiting Connie's blog today!
