NEW - Humpty Dumpty Challenge!



Welcome to Sweet Tomato’s Humpty Dumpty Template Challenge, a new, monthly challenge sure to get your creative juices flowing.

So, here’s the story (and I’m sticking to it): I made this wonderful template and then my toddlers came around and messed with my Photoshop while I tried to go to the bathroom in peace. I should have known it was too quiet for anything good to be going on. When I got back in the computer room, this jumble was what was left on the screen. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to put this Humpty Dumpty template back together again. As to how it goes back to together, that is entirely up to you, my friend. Here are the guidelines:

1. You must use each piece in your layout (sorry no delete keys allowed), but how you use it and where you use it is entirely up to you. You can resize, reshape, reorient any way you please, but it must be there somewhere. Paper scrappers, please play along, just create the bits you see on screen with whatever works for you. This is a PSD file, so for those using other programs, I have saved each item as a png file that you can drag into your program. There is NO obsessing over rules here, if it feels right to you than it is with me!

2. Use whatever theme and kits you would like (50% of it needs to come from the Faith Sisters shop), add and embellish it until you are happy and then upload here to our Humpty Dumpty gallery.

3. Then come back to the monthly thread and post your gallery link so we can give you some much-deserved love.

Here is July’s Humpty Dumpty Template:

And to motivate people to try out my new challenge, all participants that complete this challenge will receive 1 free kit of their choice from my store!

CrystalHere at Faith Sisters, we are very blessed to have so many wonderful digital scrapbooking designers who help us in our shop. Every other Sunday, we will feature some our outstanding designers!

Crystal is an amazing entrepreneur and she creates awesome kits. Templates are her specialty and she recently decided that she would create all her kit from scratch, using no commercial use products. Please read more about her and be sure to pick up a special freebie that she has created especially for our customers. Also be sure to check out her shop her awesome 1 page templates are only $1 each!


FlowerCrystal, what are some of the life lessons that scrapbooking has taught you?


First and foremost, cherish every moment, big or small. I try to scrapbook everything I don't want to forget, everything I think my children would like to know, and everything that has made me stronger. I want my kids to look through the scrapbook and see all sides of life and how I celebrate it.



FlowerWhen did you start digital scrapbooking, designing and what made you get into it?

I started digiscrapping in January of 2007, I found out I was pregnant with my second child and I didn't even have my first child's baby scrapbook done (he was seven). I knew I needed to get my bum moving, I started looking for a quicker, cleaner and more economical way. Digital scrapbooking was the answer. I quickly became obsessed and being the creative diva I am, I felt the need to take it to the next level. That's when I started designing templates, and honestly they're my first love. I began creating kits a short while later, I had a vision for what a page would look like and when I couldn't find what I needed, I wanted to make it.


FlowerWhat inspires you to create your designs?


I was originally a paper scrapper and I like my digi pages to follow more traditional lines. Most of my templates and kits have a definite paper appeal.



FlowerCan you share your favorite scrapbooking or design tip with our Faith Sisters?


Keyboard shortcuts are a gift from God! They save so much time in photoshop and become automatic after awhile. It's funny but I can't tell you how many times I've tried to use the undo shortcut on my work computer...in a medical coding database LOL.



FlowerHow do you find the time to do so many wonderful designs?


I neglect my family and friends, LOL. Actually, designing is how I relax. So all my "me" time is usually spent in photoshop.



ClaudiWhat is your favorite scripture verse?


Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and your plans will succeed. Proverbs 16:3
