Mint-spirational Monday: Spotlighting the BEST Digital Scrapbook Pages of the Week
Posted by MissMint under Mint-spirational Monday[2] Comments
Ask and ye shall receive.
That’s right baby! It’s BACK.
There has been many a demand…er request to bring back Mint-spirational Mondays, our spotlight on the best pages and projects of the week from the Peppermint Creative Gallery, and since I’m a bit of a people pleaser – here we are. But I’ve got a bit of a bone to pick with you folks. If you’re going to ask that I bring back a spotlight on gallery pages – then you’ve got to post your pages in the gallery! I cannot post what I cannot see…capiche?

And on that note, I’m excited to announce that I will also be awarding a fabulous $5 gift card to Peppermint Creative to one Mintastic gallery poster every month. All you have to do is post your pages (using mostly Peppermint Creative products) in the gallery and at the end of the month ‘I shall select a winner’ (to be read aloud in a bad British accent). Everyone is welcome to post. And as I mentioned in a post last week, I love to see what you guys are creating. It makes all the long lonely hours designing in the middle of the night with random infomercials playing in the background while I snack on things I shouldn’t be eating totally worth it so don’t rob me of that joy – okie dokie?
CAUTION: High levels of MINT-SPIRATION ahead! Keep a pen and notepad handy in the event of a creative emergency.
Note that you can click any of the pages below to view them in the gallery where you will find credits listed for all products used if something should strike your fancy. Ok, it’s time for some MINT-spiration…so lets get to it!
Art Show | by: my2monkeys
This page is stunning! The layers, the colors – where to look first? It perfectly captures the artistic theme of the page. And I love all the photos of artwork included.

Perfect | by: Lijezz
Ahhhhh! SO LOVE this! It really is (as the title suggests) perfect on so many fronts. Love how the patterned paper is clipped to the Messy Love Mat behind the photo. Love the arrangement of the title with jars and bread on each side. Gorgeous overall design.
Army Cadets | KirstieGai
What a super idea for a birthday party – put those kids to work! Great mix of products and colors to really capture the army feel!

Race Day | by: Cherry Limeade
This page is such an inspiration – the layout, the colors, the photos…just makes me want to lace up my sneakers and go for a run. Fantastic!

Artist | by: rjcjme
Ahhh the elusive photo-less page. Often talked about but rarely seen. You have to look closely to appreciate all the detail in this one. The scanned artwork hanging by a wire, the colored pencils and scissors tucked behind it, the arrow pointing to the slightly tilted hand-written journaling. It all works together perfectly to give this page a child-like, crafty feel. Great page!

We Are Here | by: mj.johnston
JEALOUS! I want to go too. Love the large photo up top with the small ‘highlights’ underneath. The bright colors and fun pictures perfectly captures the joy that I was personally assured by Mary Jo was whole heartedly felt on this trip. They had a great time and it really shows.

backyard bootcamp | by: KirstieGai
If you scroll up a few layouts you may notice a theme in Kirstie’s layouts….child labour. LOL. No wonder she is always so fast to get everything done. She’s got a gang of workers on hand! ;) But seriously folks. LOVE this page! Maybe I’m just a glutton for punishment but this looks like a ton of fun to me. Love seeing the kids being so active and having a great time. Great use of Missy’s Template here – so many pictures without it looking too cluttered. 
3 Months | by: shutterspeed
So cute! I love the choice to convert the photos to black & white here – it works really well and let’s the colors of the page pop!
Soccer Practice | by: Mommy2Talesia
That clever border of soccer balls totally caught my eye! Love the clean and simple design – not to mention the great action shots!

the handbag | Gabby
And last – but certainly not least…this LOVELY page from Gabby. OOOOOOOOOH. A PURSE. LOVE purses. Can never have enough. In fact I was just thinking of going to find a new one today. I love the delicious color and how only one of the photos is in color – very artistic shots! So purdy.

Thanks everyone for sharing your wonderful work. Tune in every Monday for a look at the Minty goodness from the gallery. Be sure to post your PC pages in our gallery and you might see them featured right here – and you might WIN!
