Happy Wednesday!

I have been so busy this week that I forgot to post my new freebie this morning! It’s up now, so go on over to my “Weekly Freebie” page and grab it up. I finished my mega kit contributions for July on several sites and a complete kit that I can’t put in the stores yet – Look for more information coming soon at my stores (links at right – click on the blinkies).

Here is a peek at this week’s freebie:

It’s a beautiful golden frame and if you go over and download it, it is a .png file so you can place it over your photos. Hope you like it!!!

New Freebie!

There is still a freebie war going on – not sure when it is going to end, but it has been fun! I actually had about 2,000 hits on this blog during all of last week! Hopefully, visitors are clicking on the store links at the right to visit my stores and purchase some of my designs! Remember, freebies are a preview of our work and as designers, we work hard on each and everything we create – please check out all my designs at my stores! I love making kits, but I see that the best selling designs so far have been the commercial use products, so I might be making more of those.

Please visit these designer’s blogs for more freebies!

NEWS!

I receive an email from Joli Kirk – she is the owner of Scrap Professor . com  – it’s been about 2 months since I applied there to be a designer and she is now ready to open her site. She wants me to be one of her very first designers there because I make fonts!!

I am excited – even though I know this will be another strain on my time… I will give it a go and see what happens… In the mean time, go on over there to check out the site – it’s really great! It’s not just a store and a forum – They offer some super cool classes on scrapping techniques, tips and tutorials – even some videos!

My newest kit!

Here is my newest kit – Be Stitched. It is my long awaited handful of stitching made just for you! I made lots of styles in 3 colors; black, white and tan - but they are easy to re-color if needed. I am putting them in my stores today:

Challenges galore!

Since I am designing for 5 sites, I am hosting many challenges as well as a crop. You can find my new June monthly challenges at these links:

Ad challenge at Digital-Scrapbooking.org

Journaling challenge at Digi News Now

Don’t forget about the new crop I am hosting mentioned in the post below!

My First Ever Online Chat/Crop!!

Tonight I hosted my first crop on Studio Style Designs site called the “Build a Kit” Crop. I posted a poll with 4 themes for digital scrapbooking kits. All chat participants voted and the winner is “Spoiled Pets”. Then, all chatters gave suggestions for items for me to put in the kit. It was great! I got tons of ideas and now I am off to creative this super new kit! Once it is in the store (hoping for June 15th), then I will post on the forum at SSD that it is ready – all participants that want to can buy the kit, make a page and post it – link back to it in the thread, and I will send them a great kit add-on for free! Oh, and I sent all chatters tonight a great chat freebie!

Hope you did not miss out on the chat tonight, because I gave everyone this freebie:

Magic Tile Paper

This new “Build a Kit” Crop is a monthly event at SSD, so don’t forget to put this on your calendar!!

FIRST SUNDAY OF EACH MONTH AT 7:00 PM PACIFIC TIME!!!

If you missed this crop – you really missed out on a lot of fun! I have it on the calendar at SSD and in the CROP forum, too.

New Page and My New Font…

There is a new page here!!! It is for showing off my Creative Team’s layouts made with my kits! Click on the page above to see all the fantastic layouts they create for me… well, for them, but they are putting them on lots of sites and it’s advertising my designs! The page is a constant work in progress, so it’ not complete and may not be for a while! Go check it out – the layouts are AMAZING!!!

OK, so I have decided to start making fonts and my first font is now for sale! It is hand drawn on my tablet PC and I think it is pretty cool…. Click on the preview to see it in the shop!

On another note, I am working on a few new designs and should have them finished by Monday (hopefully!) So, check back here to see the previews!
