I was at a crop this weekend and someone showed me her printed layout with the 3D Negative Frame Biggie from the store. I have it in my basket but have a few more dollars to spend.

I am wondering what is your favourite purchase from ScrapGirls? (No kits or paper, I have a lot of those!) What is the one thing that you bought here that you use over and over and over? I have looked in the store for many hours but still haven't seen everything so I thought this would be a great way to see all the gems!

Not sure if you can put pictures of your item, maybe you could link me up to a layout or two using it? I would love to know what you love from the store. I could use some help spending some cash!!

My "favorite" at the moment is the bookmark templates I bought.
Since I'm making them for my upcoming wedding.
Bookmarks in boutique

I used in a scrapbook I made for my fiance about his bookstore the Old Photo Frames Embellishment Biggie
Photo Frames

But...there's soooo many things that could be listed!

The paper tearing action,
the glitter styles
the drop shadows
brushes.
etc
lol

And by the way...
Hi. Welcome aboard.

[PBarnes]

Hi and welcome!

This is always a tough question to answer since I love everything in the boutique! I think the two items that I use the most are the Lifted Photos Biggie and Melissa's Paper Tear Action for PSE 5001. There is the same action for Photoshop.

[scrappinchar]

I find myself using this action a LOT...
ScrapSimple Tools - Actions: Photo Basics PSE 5001

[ChristinaP]

I agree with the paper tears, I also used an Inked Edges and I LOVE my Water Drops tool!!!

Welcome!!

[April Showers]

Oh it helps a lot that you're not looking for collections or papers, though just take a look Here are a few things I use a lot.
Jan Hick's Curled Edges (several varieties of these)
Shalae's Aged Photo Frames
and any other frames like them.
And I love the Tear Action too.
I'll have to go look through my layouts and see what else I use all the time.

[April Showers]

Oh, styles, I collect styles like crazy!

[nichole]

Hands down..."all about marriage" LOVE IT! I use it all the time...

[goofyemt96]

Styles. Style and more styles and of course the actions.....and frames and journaling paper and such

[needadietcoke]

If you like the ease of having everything coordinate, go for the Scrap Girls Club. It's a good deal and the pages just fly together.

[KellyChron]

I find myself using Melissa Renfro's stuff ALL the time Specifically, the Photo Basics Action, the Stamping Action, Lifted Photo's (both the weathered and the original ones), and the Lifted Journaling Paper... I must be on her wave length.

Although, I can see how I go through spells of buying (unintentionally oddly enough) from a particular designer. I went through a big Syndee Nuckles kick for a while, and I always seem to buy Keri Schuller's latest things... Although the same can be said for Erica Hite's stuff... oooh, Amanda Sok too! I buy WAY too much! (Don't tell my husband!)

[PrincessSarah]

I love using stiches and paper tears. Use 'em quite regularly, so much that I've had to challenge my self to not use them!

[goodqueenbee]

I like the SETS in whatever colors lure me for the moment... such fun!

[ginaMO]

For element sets, you can't beat the Bookworm set. They are so versatile and go with so many things.

[Shari PV Mom]

My newest addiction is anything by Brandy Murray! She's got awesome designs and a bunch of Embellishment templates too. I just love love love her stuff! And ... she's coming out with new stuff so fast it's impossible to keep up with her so there is almost always something new to choose from!

Oh ... and ...

[AnnBK]

No contest here....lifted photos and fancy folds. I used both in this layout. I like the lifted photos so much that I have them in three different versions.

And to Scrap Girls!

[Gillian]

My first purchase from Scrapgirls is STILL my favourite - the stitching actions. I used them over and over again and they are so versatile. I can never get enough styles either, I love the Grunge metals.

OH where do I begin, this thread has just made me take a look and count how many Collection I have and WOW 185 and thats not including the brushes, templates etc ( just love this place can you tell) shall i go on ( not enough time or paper to write them all down Hee Hee) and I've not yet posted a L/O. I can't pick a favourite because everyone is so awesome that they are all my favourites, each 1 has its own unique theme and that makes it hard to choose which 1 is up there in 1st place, but i do love Melissa Renfro's actions for PSE. (more)xxx

[sheilaj]

if we're not talkin paper then the LCO Grunged Butterfly brushes and the EHI Birds of Fancy.

butterflies

birds

I love brushes, you can do so much with them

[NS_Scrapper]

Really hard to narrow it down to specific recommendations. I tend to do most of my purchases from the embellishment templates. I enjoy the flexibility of using the templates. I especially love curls, folds and frames...

Lots to see in this category:
Embellishment Templates!!!

[debilou]

I'm with April and Mary, A girl just can't have too many Styles!!!!

buy lots of them... I'd buy them all if I could..

But, honestly, I don't have a LO where I don't use them.

And, Ok Caroline (peppi) , I'm now convinced Actions are so cool... I love actions too...

I love the MRE_Photo basics - it just turns your photos into a little piece of heaven!!

[sheilaj]

styles don't work in psp?

[J9Buckles]

I think styles are like shoes...........you can't have too many, but it's easy to forget what you bought! LOL Styles and actions...shoes and purses....hmmm........I feel a shopping trip coming on. DH says I have too many shoes so I buy styles instead now. It fulfills the need and I can wear, I mean use, more than one at a time.

WELCOME TO SCRAPGIRLS!!!

[Zaz]

I am a non-recovering styles addict and I like it that way. I don't know if I have a layout in the last year that doesn't incorporate at least one style in it. Don't ask me to pick a favorite amongst them, though. I love them all.

Welcome to Scrap Girls!

[Syndee]

This thread is a hoot! I like the term/phrase 'non-recovering' styles addict! Too funny Zazz:) I would have to agree there, I LOVE styles and think the more you have the better:) lol!

[SodScrap]

Welcome aboard!

[Kricket]

Zaz, I join you as a 'non-recovering' styles addict! I can't get enough of
them - especially the glittery ones. I also love the SS paper and the -

I think I use the lifted photos the most.
