I'm having a hard time scrapping since Amber passed like Tammy said--it is just so hard to wrap our heads around what happened! The layouts you all have posted are wonderful and reminds me of what a great talent she had. Thank you all!! Amber would be so pleased that we love her designs so much. She worked hard on them!

eta. I guess I have to change my siggi line.

 

[craftytam]

This is such a beautiful way to remember Amber! I didn't know her personally, but she is a big part of my life through her designs.

 

[kendallt]

Thank you all SO much for sharing your beautiful pages, and please keep doing so! I hope you all don't mind my sharing some of my favorites as well. It's SO hard to narrow down the list. I love Amber's designs and will miss working with her more than I can say.

 

[kendallt]

And I can't forget to mention the absolutely dynamic duo of Amber and Flergs. Wow...talk about a match made in heaven. :wub: How lucky were we to reap the benefits of this amazing lady's talents?!







(With an added Ru bonus! )

This is a kit I adored when it came out and I bought it but never got around to scrapping with it.

I was at my Mom's new Lakehouse for the first time when I got the devastating news about Amber. I had been feeling so thankful for this time with my Family. A chance to unplug and say "yes" to my Kids. And then when I heard about Amber, it was bittersweet. Make each day count!

Just looking this thread shows the talent of the designer and gives me so many items to add to my "want list".

I just got back from vacation last night and agonized over watching the digiscrap community reel in shock and sorrow over such terrible news all the while trying to enjoy our vacation anyways. I know that Amber would have wanted it that way but it still doesn't do much to lessen the guilt of continuing on with everyday life and for not being here in the forums/community grieving among the rest of you. So here I am now with my own personal story of who Amber was to me.

Amber invited me to her team back in March of 2015. I still have the message! She was so instrumental in giving me the boost of confidence I needed to challenge and grow myself personally and pursue my dream of becoming a SugarBabe. I have dozens and dozens, maybe hundreds?, of pages capturing my family's memories all because of her beautiful and inspiring designs.

She was, like everyone else has said, so kind and supportive. She had a generous giving spirit and was always there to talk whether it was something serious or just for a laugh. She used to say my hubs was pretty handsome "for a white guy"! I smile and I cry at the same time when I think of moments like that. She was more than just a person who lived inside my computer. She lived, and still does live, in my heart. I will cherish her friendship and her creativity always.

These are just a few of my favorites with her designs. I could post all night. She was so talented!

What an absolute blessing it's been not only to know Amber, but be involved in her business, her creativity, her delicious smelling melts/stick perfumes and her abundant, contaigous joy.
I would have loved to have met her in person.
We often joked about her popping over to Australia and heading to The Whitsundays for a little get away.....only 8 hours drive right?? Haha plus the long flight!

I am grieving for the loss of an online friend but also a prayer partner and sounding board. A lady who was truely gifted artistically and in kindness.

I am thankful for the joy that flows when I scrapbook...... Its such a precious thing to be able to scrapbook, isn't it?!!!!

To use Ambers kits has been an absolute delight.

Her artwork enhances not only the pictures of our loved ones but creates extra oomph in the telling of their stories.

Here are a few favourites of the kits that I love that Amber made.

Time does still stand still when i see our daughter smile <3

This kit from image below, is no longer available....Amber Shaw & Megan Turnidge: Dinomite

Oh how fun and raucous are our little boys, I still remember the noises like yesterday.

The beauty of this kit has imprinted in my mind such a gorgeous memory for our family. I don't think i would have documented this moment with such delight, without Ambers help of this kit.

We are truely blessed aren't we?!!!

This one is one of my most recent LOs using her kits. I LOVE the bright colours.

 

[DisneyMom]

My most Favourite LO had to have been this one created using the collab between Amber and Studio Flergs (love all those collab kits)Galactic Wars Collab

 

[SeattleSheri]

I definitely didn't know Amber as well as other did, but I adored her designs. We were "hair twins," if there is such a thing. I was never part of her CT, but I still have over 50 pages with their designs. She was so talented. I wish I could have known her better. Her legacy in the community will never be forgotten.

A couple of my favorites ...

 

[aurian]

Amber's kits have helped me scrap some very special memories, and her creativity will not be forgotten as friends and family thumb through our scrapbooks in the years and decades to come. This is one of my personal favourite layouts using one of her kits, Beauty on the Inside.

 

[kristalund]

 

[Saar]

A recent one of me with one of Ambers' retired products.

 

[LJSDesigns]

I don't have a lot of time to actually scrap these days, but I am a big believer in scrap therapy so I made time to scrap with one of Amber's stunning kits. I paired In The Stars with one of my son's wedding photos, not only because it was the perfect kit, but because it means Amber and her art will be always be part of a very special day for me.

 

[djp332]

So many to choose from. I always dreamed about being on Amber's CT, but now I'll just settle on going to Disney World so that I can use all those fabulous kits I've been collecting. This layout earned me my first GSO.

 

[djp332]

Another favorite of mine.

 

[Saar]

A little tribute for my PL album.

 

[psychozoe]

Im enjoying all the beautiful pages. I just did a series of pages from our tombstone trip using Believe in magic: wind dancer. This first page is my favorite

I could go on and on. I am so sorry for the loss in the community. It's been a week and I still can't figure out what I am going to add to my collection before her store is gone. This thread and your layouts have help me figure out the priorities. Thank you.

 

[wendyp]

I just made this one

 

[allyanne]

Ok, I'm really late here, but I've been away most of the week. I've been so saddened by Amber's passing and so glad to be part of this community.

I just made this page a few weeks ago, finally getting this kit off my wishlist during NSD:

and this is my all-time favorite kit of Amber's:

 

[immaculeah]

What a beautiful tribute and I'm happy to share a few of my favorites using Amber's kits.

 

[roxana]

I was in amber's CT for many years. She was just an amazing person and designer to work with. She will be so missed!
Some of my faves using her kits and collabs:

 

[snowdrop]

Amber was always a dream CT. Her kits were always beautiful & she sounds like just as beautiful a person. Here's a few of my favs I've done with her kits

 

[Neverland Scraps]

I don't really like the outdoors, but when I do go outside and explore nature, I'm really drawn to those nature kits. With that said I have loved #moments: Adventure Collection

 

[Neverland Scraps]

I know it's a collab between Amber and Megan, but I always loved Shine by Studio Flergs & Amber Shaw. It's my go-to for anything magical or danceelated.





But as a single, In the Stars Collection is beautiful to scrap those danceelated photos....even the little ones sleeping. Goodness, it is such a versatile kit!

 

[kim21673]

I've been scrapping today with Amber's beautiful creations...here are two layouts. There will be many more to come.
