A Boy Thing and Vivaldi

Good morning!

I am no longer in the Digitals Design Star competition due to my own oversight.
I created duplicate (except for color) elements, and the rules said not to do that.

But, I have learned a lot from the contest, and I am very glad I entered. I wish all of the remaining contestants the best of luck when voting starts later today - noon mountain time!

I have taken down my items to avoid any confusion, but I am posting them here on my blog for a while in case you missed any of them.

Here is the element pack for A Boy Thing from Round 3:




Here is the paper pack for A Boy Thing from Round 2:




And, here is my mini kit, Vivaldi, inspired by The Four Seasons from Round 1.

Thanks for your interest, but these freebies have been retired.


I hope to have more freebies up this weekend, so be sure to stop by.

Thanks to everyone who left comments for me about these pieces for the contest. I really appreciate it. Make sure you leave some love for the remaining contestants and vote for your favorite!

Heritage Paper Preview - Elements - A Name?

I have completed some papers for the heritage kit...here is a preview of a few of them.

Now, I would like to know what kinds of elements you would like to see in the kit.
So, please post a comment with a small list of elements. I will have basics like brads, eyelets, staples, photo corners and turns, ribbons, bows, lace and pearls...so is there anything else that you think is needed...is there anything that shouldn't be in there?

A Name

I often have trouble with names. Sometimes, they just pop into my head, but most of the time I struggle to find a name that is unique but means something.
My latest freebie is a good example. Not many people know what the name Thetis is all about. I felt I had to explain it. I don't like to have a name that has people going...huh? But, since the papers were light and feminine in addition to the colors being like the ocean...I thought it fit.

Now it's your turn. Please help with the naming of the kit. If you need to see other posts, maybe these will help:

Freebie - Grab Bag - Heritage - Design Star Voting

For the month of September, I have this great Grab Bag at DigibyDesign. It's just $2.00! The preview was made from some of the items inside, so you can get an idea...
This grab bag contains almost 100 MB of goodies!!!


Heritage Kit

I will have a separate post a little later to show the papers I have created and to get your input on what types of elements we should have.
I thought I would give out some of the papers, but I realized we don't have a name ---- YET. So, I'll be asking for some kit name ideas, too!

The Freebie

I was playing around with colors this morning, and started thinking of the sea. I have 3 papers and 4 elements for you today. This mini kit is called Thetis after a sea goddess in Greek mythology. She was the mother of Achilles, the great warrior of the Trojan War.


Two of the papers have a soft floral theme, so you can use them for more than water layouts. I'd like to thank Atomic Cupcake for her gem action and Cintzi for her silver layer styles.

Digiscrap Depot is undergoing some maintenance and will be down for a short while. As soon as it is back up, I will be posting more freebies there.

Digitals Design Star

Please don't forget that
today is the last day for voting in the Digitals Design Star Contest.
Here is a preview of my entry.

There are a total of 28 freebie mini kits to download. Stop by download the freebies, leave comments for the designers, and vote for your favorite. I love to read comments, so please leave some love if you download mine. Voting closes at midnight mountain time.

Thanks for your interest, but this freebie has been retired.

Have a great day!

MEGA Kits!!!!

I'm a little late posting these because it has a been a busy week - a blog party, a big sale, a kit retirement sale, a design contest at Digitals, new kits, work...well, you get my point!

But, there are three fabulous MEGA kits available at Deco-Pages, DigibyDesign and Digiscrap Boutique!

Deco-Pages has done it again with a great Club Deco kit! This one is called DECOration Celebration and it's all about Birthdays! There are so many fabulous papers and elements, I can't show you all of them, but here are some previews of my portion of the kit and a preview of just some of the stuff you'll get:


I have 2 Quick Pages, 14 backgrounds, 7 party bows, 7 party ribbons, a sequin splash, 7 bows and 7 bent ribbons in this kit.

I know this is small...you can see a bigger preview HERE and find all about joining Club Deco to get this kit (and 11 more) FREE with an annual membership. Ask around, you'll see that Club Deco never fails to deliver great kits for a great price!


DigibyDesign has Mr. Fix-It this month for just $9.99!

Put down that hammer and check out Mr. Fix-It, the September Mega Kit from DigiByDesign!

Mr. Fix-It is a rugged and manly kit perfect for scrapping all those macho men in our lives. Those who like to work with tools and don’t mind getting a little dirty while doing it! This kit is filled with deep, rich colors and finely detailed embellishments that are great for those home improvement and father-child pages we all love. Mr. Fix-it was put together for you by 14 of our talented designers for saving memories of those special men in your life.



And, don't forget about that special Back To School coupon that DXD has until the end of the month!


Have you been to the Digiscrap Boutique Blog Party????
This weekend is your last chance to grab the FABULOUS MEGA KIT for FREE!
Visit each designer's blog and collect all the pieces! This kit will disappear from the blogs on Sunday, so you'd better get blog hopping today of you want it:
