New Release, Freebie, and Happy Birthday!

>> Thursday, March 25, 2010

Hi Everyone! Remember that freebie I teased you about? Well guess, what? I'm gonna tease you for a minute first...

My sale for 35% off MY WHOLE STORE is still going on! But it ends at midnight EST on March 31st, so hurry!!! I won't be having a sale like this for a long time....in fact, don't know when again that I will. LOL

My Store at SDD is 35% off Until March 31st!

And guess what else? I have a new Friday Release! AND...yes, its also 35% off! Fresh Worn Spring has 12 white-washed papers; all of them are wrinkled and worn looking. and look at those awesome spring colors! 33 elements and just some of them are rustic flower doodles, leaf doodles, realistic foilage and flowers, a twirled ribbon, 2 bead scatters, three cardboard flowers, a 12 inch border with flowers and sprinkles, doodled frame, 2 worn and torn frames, a white-washed wooden frame, two white tags with strings, a journal piece, and more!

Obsessed digi-scrappers also have the option of buying just the paper pack! And yep, that's 35% off too!

Ok, are you ready for the freebie? The five coordinating solids that are just as white-washed and just as wrinkled are here just for you! Have fun with these - they'll go great with the kit above!

Don't forget about the sale! It ends in just 5 short days!

Color Challenge?!?!? HELP!

>> Sunday, March 21, 2010

So, you all know I do the Color Challenge at Scrappity-Doo-Dah the first 1/2 of every month. I've had a lot of fun with it so far this year. But...here it is March 21st and I'm still clueless what I'm going to challenge you all with come April 1. Have any ideas? C'mon....I know you do! Leave me a comment and let me know what color or color scheme I should do! Is everyone totally and completely OD'd on spring colors yet? I could always do spring colors but thought you all would have had enough of it this year. LOL

So, c'mon! Leave me a comment and tell me what color(s) you'd like to see in a color challenge! Color codes are always helpful too. :)

Domino Art

Hi Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! Brook, a member of the wonderful, talented K2 Kreative Krew has posted a brand new challenge on the K2 blog and she titled it "Let's Play Dominos" - and it looks like a lot of fun. I'll show you a pic but you'll have to go to the K2 Kreative Krew blog to find out more!

I used to do domino art way way way back in the day of actual crafting that wasn't digital. LOL And...I even scraped up some photos of some dominos I did during that time. Ya know what I'm talking about....well, maybe you don't....I used to be sooo completely obsessed with rubber stamping, collage, art journals, etc. Then I found digital.... LOL But I did have a whole lot of fun with dominos and here is some of my artwork!

Psst! Are you waiting for that birthday freebie I teased you about late last week? Well, guess what? Its almost done! Stay tuned!

Two NEW Releases and A BIG SALE!!!

>> Thursday, March 18, 2010

Hi Everyone! I'm going to keep this post short cause I have more creating to do because my blog makeover isn't complete and I should probably make it a little bit more presentable, huh? LOL

So....I'm having a birthday. Sigh....and I'm not really happy about it. I'm not going to tell you how old I'm going to be because that's the sad part. But....sigh...I'll give you a hint. 35% off was picked for a reason. LOL

Not only is my WHOLE STORE at Scrappity-Doo-Dah 35% off, but I have two new re-releases! And yes, they are 35% off also! WAHOO!

And want another teaser?? Did you all scroll this far down? If so, then you have first-hand knowledge that there will be some freebies next week during my birthday week! But you'll have to check back to find out more!

Please Excuse My Dust! :-)

Hi Everyone~! Just wanted to give you a heads up. I'm giving this blog a makeover. Not a huge one, but enough changes you'll notice a difference. If there is any funkiness in the next couple of days, that's why! :-)

But I think you'll find it worth it in the end!

And.....I'll give you a teaser....I'm gonna be having a HUGE sale that I'm gonna be announcing. And I'll also tell you why!

Stay tuned....

Friday New Release! Finally, its Available!!! :-)

>> Friday, March 5, 2010

Wahoo! Its Friday now and Earth's Reflections has been in the store now for about 6 hours! LOL Let me tell you a little about this kit - it is soo huge that making one preview with everything on it without decreasing the beauty of it was impossible. That's how it ended up in three parts. And we thought some might like the option of buying just one or two parts. Yeah, right...I know...that's why we also made the bundle! LOL For those obsessed digi scrappers who want it all! And you know what? If you buy the bundle, its like getting all 3 parts for the price of 2! Hurry up - what are you waiting for? I've been teasing you long enough, haven't I? Hurry over to our collab store at Scrappity-Doo-Dah!

Aren't those layouts wonderful? Kris and I have such a great CT - I can't brag enough about them! Click on over to the K2 Kreative Krew blog....to see MORE of their awesome layouts AND have a chance at winning the kit above! Hurry, the challenge ends tonight!

Color My World! Challenge Over at Scrappity-Doo-Dah!

Hi Everyone! I soo can't believe it's March already! I blinked and February is already gone. It being the first of the month, I just posted my Color My World! challenge over at SDD! And nope, didn't pick greens for the approaching St. Patty's Day.....instead, if read yesterday's post, you know I have a brand new release on Friday! Its titled Earth's Reflections and has a whole lot of green in it!

Want to read more about the Color My World! challenge? Just click here to go to the post in the SDD forum!

Need some green inspiration? I coulda chosen hundreds of pics for this montage, but I tried to limit myself...
Use mostly green in your layout, but if can't pick your favorite green(s), how about use one of these wonderful shades? (my favs!)

And the best thing of all.....at SDD, we have special offers that allow you to DOUBLE the challenge points you earn! Wahoo! If you wait until Friday, March 5 and pick up the Earth's Reflections collab...and then use it in your mostly green layout, you get DOUBLE the points! Scroll down to the next post to see a sneak peek of Earth's Reflections. :-)

Sneak Peek - March 5 Release!

Wanna see a SNEAK PEEK of the next collaboration I'm involved in with Kris Myers Designs? It'll be released on Friday! We've already given it to the K2 Kreative Krew to create some wonderful layouts! Stay tuned for more...
