June has arrived…

June 4th, 2009

…and with it so much change. I’ve had traveling (1300 miles each way) to visit Libby, and changes in family stuff, and changes in jobs, and so many things to look forward to and try not to be anxious about.  New things are coming…and I’m trying to keep up with all the change. It suddenly feels like a lot!!

Here’s a free desktop to hold you for another week or so when the news will start coming out! It’s from a brand new kit that’s not yet in stores called Oh Blah Dee. The desktop is available in 1024×768 and 1280×800 with and without a place for a photo. Mine is here with the photo so you can see my cute kid. (Who can resist a cute kid?) She fell asleep on the picnic table after a bunch of running around outdoors!

I hope you’re having a terrific June! More to come from me in a few short days…stay tuned!

Free May Desktops

May 1st, 2009

I like new desktops. And I love Bamboozled. So, why not combine the two and make something extra fun?

Here is a new desktop for you. It comes with and without a frame for a photo, so you can use it as is or stick a photo of your cutie in it! Also comes in two sizes – 1024×768 and 1280×800. A total of 4 desktops in yummy colors! Please don’t share the files – if someone wants them, send them here to the blog! The’ll be up for a while!

You’ve Been Bamboozled!!!

May 1st, 2009

BamboozledLibby and I finally did it!! I love this collab. It’s the fourth we’ve ever done together, and probably my favorite. There are TONS of papers and elements in here, and we worked hard to make them unique and fun!! If you’ve missed our other three collabs, they were Hibernation Day, Hootenanny, and Skidamarink.  Bamboozled also has a Quick Page set, AND you can get the Quick Pages and the kit in a bundle for a super price. PLUS….Everything in my store is 30% off now thru Sunday!! You can’t beat that with a stick!

Bamboozled Quick PagesDon’t miss out on Bamboozled, or on the sale! It will be the last one for a while, and you’ll want to stock up while you can!! Pass the word :)

No Shabby Deals on NSD!

April 30th, 2009

Isn’t that a clever way to say that we’re having awesome sales at Plain Digital Wrapper?! Well we are! And I have a brand new collab kit with Libby that will be available tomorrow – and it is to. die. for. My favorite of ours yet!! My whole store will be on sale for 30% off tomorrow thru Sunday, and then a 20% off last chance sale on Monday. You want to be sure to stock up!

Lots of other fun things too! Libby and I are creating kits from the same swatch – and they look so different while they still coordinate. It will be fun to see our individual styles be individual. That will be coming in a few weeks – almost finished there.

Don’t forget to check out the challenges and fun at PDW. You never know what you’ll miss there – plus I hear that there are some pretty changes in the works there, too!!

Happy National Scrapbooking Day – Early!!

Happy Tax Day – big sale!!

April 15th, 2009

Since it is April 15th and I have a new kit in the store, I thought I’d celebrate by putting everything in my store (CU and PU) at least 40% off. This is only going to last today and tomorrow – so stock up while you can!

I don’t do sales often, but this seemed like a good time for one. I have all of the Young Love Collection on sale, as well as the Coffee House Friends Collection, and all of my commercial use tools. Happy Shopping!

Here’s my newest kit, Josh & Megan. Love the elements in this one – had so much fun!! Don’t miss it while it’s on sale!

We’re making some progress!

April 14th, 2009

I love it when things actually get accomplished. It makes me feel like I’m plugging away and making things better. I have a brand new kit for this week – last of the Young Love Collection – called Josh & Megan. It has my favorite colors and elements of any of them in the kit; I really can’t wait to scrap with it and see people scrap with it. Seriously exciting! One day to go – you can see it revealed tomorrow!!

I am working on a new collab with Miss Libby Lou – and I LOVE HER! She is so fun to work with and for, and we always have the best time doing collabs. That will be in stores also very soon.

I also can’t tell you how excited I am about the wonderful things happening at Plain Digital Wrapper. If you haven’t been there, or if it’s been a while, you really need to jump back in the groove. Lisa is doing some wonderful things there, and the team of girls that are there are just terrific. So happy to have a ‘home’ there!

I hope you guys are all being creative and fun! Check back tomorrow for Josh & Megan!

I love flowers…

April 10th, 2009

Making them, that is. I’m having the best time making them for my latest kit. I think this one will be ready for the store on Wednesday, which is very exciting. I actually spent about 80% of my day designing today, and enjoying the process very much. That’s saying something! It’s been a while since it hasn’t seemed like work. Maybe I’m getting used to all this stuff again!

My friend Libby is working on some great stuff too – be sure to check out her store tomorrow; she has some beautiful new products hitting the store and I am always so proud of the things she makes. If you’ve never shopped with Libby, you need to start now. Because she rocks!

Plain Digital Wrapper has some great things happening that are coming up…be sure to keep your eyes peeled there. New classes, new forum challenges, new designers, just TONS of fun.  Lisa has it all under control, and she’s gonna make the place shine – don’t miss out!

I’m off for a family weekend. I hope you and yours have a wonderful Easter!

Welcome!

There are lots of projects in the works – some of which are…

  • finishing up the Young Love Collection (yay! finally!)
  • doing another fun collab with Libby Weifenbach (yay! finally! again!)
  • doing some teaching at ScrappersGuide.com – which I am LOVING!
  • working on developing some more secret fun stuff to be announced later this spring/early summer
  • random design ideas floating through my little brain!

Be sure to check out the sidebar for places to visit and fun news. That will be updated pretty often as well so that you can see what I’m up to!

I can’t wait to keep in touch with you all, and to talk about the process.  Be checking back for news, tips and tricks, free little snippets of things, and lots of other fun! Have a Scrappy Day!
