Looking for a Fall kit that has a bity of whimsy mixed in?  Check our Paint Chips: Autumn Shimmer!

Ginger Scraps | My Memories

That's going to be it from me today.  I've spent the past two days deep cleaning a couple rooms at home and I need to get out of the house for a little bit to soak up some sunshine as a reward.  Maybe I can get my husband to go for a walk at a park or trail.  The weather is absolutely gorgeous outside!

With Halloween closing out this week I'm going to share some themed freebies with you this week.  This Quick Page freebie from CTM Theresa was created with Coastal Fall and Jack-o-lantern Magic!  I love how these two kits complimented each other and the way Theresa mashed them up.  I've been playing around a bit more with mix and matching papers and elements from different kits lately too.  Do you mix and match or mostly stick with using one kit only?

October 2026 Template Bundle and Paint Chips: Autumn Shimmer {NEW}

 Connie has two new releases debuting in stores today!  First up is the October 2026 Template Bundle where you get 4 packs with a total of 16 brand new templates to help inspire your next month of layouts for $5.99.

Here's a closer look at each pack in the bundle.

October 2026 Template Bundle @ Ginger Scraps

My favorites are the White Space Volume 121 and The Big Picture Volume 45.  Though I'm beginning to get more comfortable with the templates that have 4 or more photo spots because I tend to take a lot of photos on our nature walks/hikes.  The Fun with Four pack and Super Six pack are going to help me get those photos off my EHD and into layouts with style!

Celebrate the little things that make fall shine with Paint Chips: Autumn Shimmer! Rich plums, warm orange, glowing gold, earthy brown, and creamy hues come together in a cozy collection filled with woodland charm. A sweet fox and hedgehog mingle with autumn blooms, berries, and seasonal treasures, while a copper kettle and teacup and a comforting bowl of soup capture the warmth of crisp fall days.

Layer flowers, ribbons, ephemera, and delicate accents to frame your favorite autumn memories. With sentiments like “Simply Grateful,” “Small Wonders,” and “Gather Memories Along The Way,” Paint Chips: Autumn Shimmer is perfect for documenting woodland adventures, cozy afternoons, and everyday moments worth holding close.

October CTM Final clues and Guess Who Contest + FREEBIE

 

(made with Coastal Fall)

I have your final set of clues for this month's Creative Team Member spotlight and your opportunity to submit your guess that will earn you an entry into a drawing for a coupon to use on any Connie Prince product in her store at Ginger Scraps.  There have been clues posted for the past two Thursdays in case you need to look back.  Before we get to the guess, here are the final answers from our CTM's interview.

What are some things that inspire you in your scrapbooking?

Nature, my family, and my faith are where I draw much of my inspiration.

What are your must-have digi-scrap supplies and what kind of gear do you use for scrapping & photography?

For photos it is a mix of iPhone pictures and DSLR/mirrorless Nikons. I use Creative Memories Historian program for photo editing, and their Artisan 6 for digital scrapbooking.

What is your favorite Connie Prince kit?

Pampered Pets and It's a Dog's Tale are my two most used kits!

What is something that we may not know about you?

I also play the drums! Well, I play all things percussive from a baby grand piano in my living-room to tympani and mallett instruments as well! I love music of all kinds. I am drawn to jazz, blues, classical, rock, and pop but will listen to just about anything!

That brings us to your opportunity to guess at who is in the spotlight this month from Connie's Creative Team.  Fill out the following form to enter this month's contest by Sunday, October 25th at 11:59 am Central time.

Submit your October 2026 CTM Contest Guess

The reveal will be next Thursday along with the contest winner announcement!
