Finally.....A New Full Size Release & Some CU items

First, a new kit in stores!

"Flip Flop Weather" Is HUGE and available now at Sophisti-Scraps

And is on sale all month long!

And I also have some new CU products, also at Sophisti-Scraps and on sale

All month long too!

You can check out my full line of CU products here and here

In other news, I have NOT forgotten the 365 freebies. I should never list a date, because as history proves, it never works out for me.

So I am not going to tell you when, but I have my graphics program open and I am working diligently to complete the past as well as future weeks so we are a head and not behind. I am very sorry about this. RL just always seems to get in my way. Good thing I had already started, so I am not technically that far behind.

So look for a new post in the very near future!

Have a great week everyone! 

Apology + News

I am very sorry I have fallen 6 weeks behind.

Real Life continued to get in the way and then I managed to pull the muscles behind my right ear, down my neck and across my shoulders. So

sitting or even talking was impossible.

I am working on weeks 10-16 and am hoping to have them posted this weekend.

I am also going to start creating FULL SIZE kits again!

I miss it to much, so I've decided to start up again.

I probably won't have to many new releases, but I will have some 

new releases in time for inter-national scrapbooking day.

Have a great weekend everyone!

 

News for a New Year

A new year has started, and with that comes some changes.

After much deliberation, for quite some time actually, I have decided that I will no longer offer my full size kits for sale in stores.

90% of my customer base comes from tagger customers and I have decided to focus on that end of the market.

However, I will continue what I started 3 years ago, and that is to create freebies for scrap artists.

So the monthly freebie will continue on as always.

I apologize to those of you who have supported me over the years, But I appreciate every comment that has been left, and please know that this decision did come easy.

With that said, a new monthly kit will be posted shortly.

Thank you again, and have a great weekend and a safe new year.

Thank you for writing Santa!

Wow! There have been a lot of very nice boys & girls this year!

I have given out a total of 55 kits and 12 coupons this year

And would like to thank all of you who wrote in and requested a coupon or kit for a friend, that is really what this holiday is all about.

And I am happy to spread a little Christmas cheer to those of you who have stood by me and supported me throughout the years, it means the world to me.

   

The new year will bring some changes, particularly for my full size kit fans.
But more will be announced soon.

I will be taking a short vacation after this week, however the 12 days of Christmas freebies will continue.

But I will be back on January 1st, if not a little bit sooner!

I wish all of you the happiest new year and a great Christmas holiday!

The Polar Express

 Guess who made it to round 3 in the Ginger Scraps Designer Challenge??!!

I am SUPER excited, if you can't tell, and very honored because there were so many talented designers to choose from and I am very happy I was picked to move on!!!

This weeks challenge was to create a kit inspired by your favorite movie, book or song. I decided to go with a challenging one (it turns out, lol) and created this, "The Polar Express" based on the book & movie.

Now, I don't have a train laying around so this kit is train-less and my only sleigh bell in my house was a free gift from the movie when I purchased the DVD so I figured that was copyrighted so no sleigh bell either. However there are many holiday and book themed elements to create some cheerful holiday layouts & crafts.

If you visit the gallery here you can download the kit for free.

Again, I am not sure if registration is required.

But well worth it if that is the case, because I have a feeling there is going to be a TON of awesome kits available this week.

The kit includes the following :

10 papers
2 strands of lights
2 frames
1 tree
1 train whistle
1 fireplace
1 stocking
1 candy cane
1 peppermint candy
3 snowflakes
1 journal strip
1 ornament
1 ribbon
1 holiday magic overlay
2 word arts
1 ticket

Thanks for looking and please leave a little love here or in the gallery if you download :o)

Just Wanted To Wish............

Everyone a Happy Turkey Day for my friends in the US.

ATTN New Moon Blog Winners

If you try to to use the coupon I sent you, it has been deleted.

The coupon has been abused and a different means of delivering your kits will

need to be established. So again, please email me and I will try to send them to ASAP.

I apologize for the delay this may cause.

Are you on Santa's Good List?

I have created a widget, just below the followers spot on the left hand side of the blog, to kick off the holiday season!

How does it work?

Just follow the steps in the box, and send a letter to Santa!

Is there a kit you have had your eye on?

Maybe a friend who has been extra special this year?

You can request a kit for a friend, just mention it in the message area.

Drop it in the box along with a working email and who knows,

Santa may deliver it!

I will be randomly giving away kits from Nov.27th through December 23rd!

But you can start writing Santa now!

This is my way to say thank you for your support through the year!

Have a wonderful weekend and great week this coming {US}Thanksgiving week!

And remember, 'Tis the season for sharing. So share your time, your talent, or just an ear to someone close to you!

So....

What do you think of the new look?? I have been in the holiday spirit for about a week now and I kept thinking that that the old layout was just to dark for my mood...LOL

I used my "Holiday Cheer" kit to create the background, header and tabs.

And of course no Christmas theme is complete without holiday music :o)

December is about half way here and I just can NOT wait!

I have so many BEAUTIFUL freebies for you the first day and so 

many wonderful surprises planned for you as well!

So stay tuned, stop by and listen to the music and enjoy the holidays with your friends and family!
