SALE - Happy New Year (early!)

I am really excited to show you my new release today! And BONUS! It is on sale for 20% off (but hurry because the sale ends today!)

I did the fun "Happy New Year" collection for you to scrap all of your festivities, your 2011 resolutions, etc. This is a totally different style from my usual and I had such a blast with it - I hope you like it!

 The Peace on Earth Collection ~ The Words (great for cards too!)

 

Vintage Christmas Cards (CU OK)

What I LOVE about these cards is they are perfect for crafting - you can glitter them and add a ribbon for an ornament, decoupage with them, or use them as-is for an old-fashioned greeting!

The Twilight Snowfall Collection ~ The Value Bundle (also sold separately - perfect for all of your winter photos at a steal of a deal!)

That is it for now...Thanks for looking and happiest of holidays to you!

NEW Early 1900s Vintage Christmas Cards - CU/PU

I am so excited to show you these cards released today at ScrapMatters!

I scanned them in (yup, we aren't talking Dover clipart here - these are from my great grandparents' stash!), cleaned them up (but left some of the "charm"), and grouped them into themes for you to use! There is a general pack, a faith-based pack, and even a pets pack!

What I love about these sets is that they are SO versatile. You can use them in your layouts, make kits with them, use them as is as cards, etc, or get a little "crazy" and print them out, add some glitter, punch a couple holes in the top and weave a ribbon through and you have an ornament or gift tag or easy gift (perfect for all those teacher gifts!). PLUS, they are sold separately or as a money-saving bundle and are on sale through Sunday! YAY!

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Thanks for looking! 

GRAB BAG FOR 3.99 (12.99 VALUE) UNTIL 12/1 ONLY!

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it! Anyone do shopping Friday? Oh my gosh - I was at the stores by 4am after an hour of sleep!

Did you hit the big Black Friday / Cyber Monday ScrapMatters.com sale yet?

Anyway... I would love to show you my newest steal of a deal - a special grab bag full of glittery, sparkly, snowy goodness! My new PU / S4O / S4H friendly (see TOU for details) 200MB+ grab bag includes PLENTY of backgrounds, titles, embellishments and more to complete all your winter works of art. But hurry - you only have until December 1 to grab this deal! All 5 packs/pieces will go to their full price on December 2 and is only available at ScrapMatters.com!

A $12.99 value, yours for $3.99 (I sound like a car salesman!) :lol:

As always, all the details are shown below and in the store so you know what you are getting. Not all papers and embellishments are shown (couldn't fit 'em all).

I cannot wait to see how you use it and thank you so much for looking and your support!!!

 PS - I am still sorting through all the CT applications. WOW! There is so much talent out there! I will be getting emails out over the next couple days, and everyone who applied will be notified no matter what the decision.

Thanks!!!

 

Big Opportunity - CT CALL!

I am so excited to be holding my BIG creative team call!

I know some of you have said you want to apply but feel you aren't "experienced enough" or "good enough" - nonsense! I would still love to see what you can do... I started this whole art licensing adventure when I applied to my first creative team in 2004 with only a couple months of my self-taught photoshop under my belt, and I know how it feels to apply. But, you will never know what you are capable of unless you try right?

Sooooooooooo...

If you have any questions/concerns let me know. Good luck everyone!

PS My new product sale ends tonight! Don't forget the coupon in the ScrapMatters newsletter too!

Two New Releases Today and another FREEBIE!

Before I get into all the new goodies, make sure you check out the November ScrapMatters Newsletter! Lots of good stuff (and an interview with a *special coupon* from me!)

I have two new collections up today at ScrapMatters. They are totally on opposite ends of the color wheel! LOL! 

First up I have a collection PERFECT for heritage photos. I think it would really show off that tint of vintage pictures! It is named after my grandma.

Then I have a bright happy kit with lots of fun word strips.

I scrapped some pics (can you believe it?) of Kevin and me from our Curacao trip and I am offering the quickpage to you here as a bonus/freebie. It looked a little lonely so I did up a chipboard/glitter alpha too. They are both in one .zip file.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy the new stuff! As always, if you use any of my designs please email me ~ I would love to see how you use them! Have a happy weekend...

Let's Get on the SM Blog Train! *FREEBIE*

AND NOW (said in my best TV announcer voice), let's get onto the SM blog train!

The theme for the SM blog train is "Many Thanks" and they asked us to write a little about what that means for us. I know personally I have a lot to be thankful for this year... my health stuff seems under control, my kids are doing well in school and otherwise (Colton has an IEP due to his autism/ADHD), I have a great boyfriend (grin), I am working with an art agent and have landed some licensing deals with manufacturers/retailers, and I have returned to the digital scrapbooking world after a few years hiatus when I started licensing my artwork. Actually, some of my designs going up at ScrapMatters were/will be included in licensed traditional scrapbooking collections and other products in retail stores! So excited! :-)

But enough about the past! I think I derailed us for a second! Back to the train... 

All pieces found on the blog train were created using the amazing "Many Thanks" collab by the ScrapMatters design team! This incredible collab kit is beautiful. My fave part about the collection has to be the embellishments - so fun and unique! Get it free with a $20 purchase for DSD!

For the train, you probably came from LoriBear's blog

Next head over to Day's blog

And if you get lost, just go back to the SM Blog to find your way! But remember, with different time zones there may be a slight delay on some blogs. :-)

But before you go, here is my SM DSD blog train contribution:

It is a 12x12 quickpage using the "Many Thanks" kit. 

**DOWNLOAD EXPIRED - THANKS FOR LOOKING**

One last thing - don't forget my drawing/contest to win $20 paypal cash to spend any way you wish and other prizes! Have fun and enjoy DSD!

My Opening Day is Here...

Today is the day my store finally opens at ScrapMatters!!!! I am thrilled to be back in digital scrapbooking again - it has really gotten me motivated to create again which is exactly what I needed!

To celebrate, don't forget about my contest/drawing for cash and prizes! Just simply read this post and in a couple clicks you will be entered (and you can hopefully start replenishing that paypal account!).

And.......

Just in time for Digital Scrapbooking Day, I have some things to show you (all on sale exclusively at ScrapMatters of course):

*****

First off, I have a PU grab bag only for DSD! I have it set at almost 70% off, and it will only be available until November 10. Better hurry! Here is what it looks like (and I am including the previews of what is included below).

 

 

•

• 
• 

It has two full paper packs, an embellishment pack and some tea-stained overlays with a hand stamped alpha. After 11/10, the packs will all be sold separately at their regular price (for a total of $10.49)... BUT buy now and steal this bundle for $3.99! 

*****

Next is my favorite - the Be Aware collection. For every purchase of this kit, I will donate $1 of the proceeds to BreastCancer.org. This collection is very near and dear to me, and I would love to see how you use it. 

 

 

• 
• 

Be Aware is on sale for the DSD price of $4.99 (regularly $5.99). I can see making cards out of this, inspirational wall hangings, etc. I mocked up some journals with it and thought they turned out nicely... Anything that helps people battle this beast is a good thing! Grab the collection here!

 

Be Aware was also featured in Scrapblog's national campaign for Breast Cancer Awareness last month, and I was a featured designer. Check it out!

*****

Lastly I have a huge value bundle - The William Collection - of course on sale for DSD. You can also buy the pieces separately, but at the sale price it is only $.50 more for the bundle as compared to the kit! Huge savings!

I know personally I find it difficult to find designs suitable for men. I can find baby boys and little boys but nothing for older guys... that is where William comes in. I also think this would be nice for heritage photos, for Father's Day, etc. Maybe I should do up some Christmas gifts with this collection! Hmmmmm...

Check out the William Collection here.

*****

Lastly I want to show you this incredible collab kit by the ScrapMatters Design Team! "Many Thanks" is free with a $20 purchase only for DSD! It is stunning...

Which brings me to my last topic - The ScrapMatters DSD Blog Train! Stop by all the blogs listed to get some wonderful goodies made with the "Many Thanks" collection. There are cards, hybrid crafts, clusters, quickpages... almost 50 stops! The Blog Train starts tomorrow morning!

 

That is all for now (lots of rambling in this post!) - have a great DSD weekend!!!
