Here are some fun buttons and seamless pattern tiles for you. The tiles are for Photoshop users or anyone who can open layered psd files. There’s an animated gif at the end – let’s see if I can get it to work. Images are linked and will open in a new window. If you’re a facebook fan, you just might see a coupon there. Have a wonderful weekend! :)
We’re having a fun blog hunt over at CatScrap! Find all the stuff, make a layout, and maybe win a prize! You have to start at the CatScrap blog in order to read the rules and find out where to start! (If the challenge isn’t posted yet, it will be by 9pm EST). You can also see some lovely layouts by the CT using all the freebies. Here’s my thingy:
Your next stop is the fabulous Lynne-Marie’s Blog. Happy weekend!
ETA – I enabled comments because I’ve received a couple of lovely thank-you’s by email, with suggestions that I enable comments for this one. So I will! Thanks!
I’m so excited! I got to be a part of The Digi Files 11 and I’ve made a full kit for it. This kit is actually the first of 12 monthly kits that I am gearing towards Project 365, but really they can be used for anything. I say they’re for project 365 because I’ve included lots of cluster frames in groups of 7. Each kit will be somewhat tied to that month – for example, in this month’s kit, there’s some January word art, there are some dictionary definitions like “change” and “resolution“, and there are a few other wordy things that reflect all the resolutions I usually make this time of year (“save” ,”new”, “i promise..” things like that). But there are also plenty of elements and papers that you can use all year long, for any layout.
I’m calling the series Altered 365, and I’m filling the kits with lots of painty, doodle-y, grungy and stampy things. Here’s what January looks like (you can click on the image to see it bigger):
And here is a bit of a closer look (click to see bigger pic):
You have to see what TDD team did with this kit! I love the layouts!!! Check out the post HERE. Also, TDD is the only place you can get this kit until February. If you buy it now, you’ll be supporting a fantastic site and getting yourself a bunch of additional stuff from a bunch of other amazing designers. Believe me, TDF11 is jam-packed with awesomeness.
Lastly – don’t miss the sale that is going on at SomethingBlue, in celebration of my time at The Daily Digi. And…shhhhh…if you head over and read the post, you might just find an additional coupon there. Bargain!
Well, I managed to get through two whole days of my “12 Days of Christmas” giveaway plans. Woohoo! I am posting the rest of them now – most of the thingies can be used on any wintry layout but a couple might have to be filed away until next year. I stink! Oh well. I had good intentions but then we all got sick. All of us. Then we left for the holidays. Now I’m back. Why do people try to accomplish anything over the holidays anyway?
Here’s what’s in this one:
Here’s what it looks like:
You can download it HERE. Hope you like!
I’ll be back tomorrow with a preview of my newest kit, which is included in The Digi Files this month!! I’m so excited!
Woohoo! Here are a couple of holiday word art thingys. The white that you see beneath the letters comes in a separate file. These are 3oo ppi pngs, each about 6 inches wide. So, 4 png files, a preview, and the TOU are what you’ll find in this zip. Sorry – gotta put the TOU in all the zips. What do you mean you don’t want 12 of them? Download HERE. Enjoy!
I’m not really announcing this one in too many places, because I sure will feel like an idjit if I can’t manage all 12, but I am attempting to do 12 freebies for the 12 Days of Christmas countdown. One down, 11 to go. This one is a lovely wreath. It’s for personal use only, but I do have a CU version in the shoppe, if you swing that way. Click HERE to download. Enjoy!
I recently put these things in the shoppe but of course forgot to actually post about it here! So, here’s what we’ve got:
First, some more worn things. Can you have too many? I like these because maybe you just want a hint of something worn on the page, instead of the entire paper.
You can find them HERE in the shoppe. There’s also a CU version of just the single strips.
Here’s a page I scrapped using one of the clusters. I don’t scrap often but I saw this photo and I had to make a page right away:
Awww. I love seeing her be sweet to her brother. A rarity. But she loves him. I got a bunch of great pics yesterday…here’s another:
If you like the frame, you might want to sign up for the newsletter. Hint hint.
And one more thing, before I show you more new products. This photo kills me. Z got a fish (thanks Grammy) and she is soooo excited. (Me, not so much.) The moment we put Miss Emily Luna here into her tank, Zoë (age 5) immediately grabbed her paper and markers and drew this:
She propped it up by the fish tank so the fish would have some art to look at. LOL.
OK. Onto more new items. I’ve got some CU stuff:
You can find the Plaid HERE and the Fabric Textures HERE. If you’re wondering where Texture Overlays #1 is, it’s coming. It’s a bunch of brayered textures. Yahoo!
OK. That post took me forever. I think I forgot a couple of new things. If so, I’ll show them to you next post. I have a few more new things that I need to get into the shoppe as well.
AND…you can expect to see the new 2010 magnet templates very soon, and my very first newsletter should be mailing within the week. I hope.
If you got this far, I leave you with my thanks, and this:
You can download it HERE. You know, I couldn’t decide if this alpha was “me”, so I never put it in the shoppe. Is that weird? Download it if you think it’ll come in useful. 
OK, that’s all from me tonight. Have a great weekend!
Wooohooo! I’ve been working with Shen (creashens) and Kristen (K Studio) to create this kit that we’ve just released exclusively at CatScrap. I am so so excited about this collection – it focuses on YOU and contains lots of ideas for journaling and page topics. We’ve created the kit with pages about you in mind, but there are certainly no limits on the kinds of pages you can make – there’s so much in here! If you click the link, you’ll also be able to see all the amazing pages that our various Creative Teams made with this gigantic kit. Here’s the preview:
You can find the kit HERE at CatScrap…you should go check it out just to see all the gorgeous sample pages!
I’ve got a few CU things coming in the next few days, so check back soon…or, you can always follow me on Twitter!
Have a great day!
Just posting some new products. I love this action. I play it over and over. As for the styles, I can’t stress enough that if you’re going to be flattening your acrylic something-or-other to paper, these styles are not the way to go. There are other styles that will look better. These are for those of you who want to make and save transparent acrylic stuff. These styles won’t turn gray or change like the styles meant for merging with papers. All of the examples on the preview were flattened first, before I merged them with the background of the preview. See? They stay clear. Hooray!
Here is the action…isn’t it fun?

You can find it HERE.
And here are the styles….

You can find them HERE.
Remember, all digital downloads in my shoppe are on sale until Sunday midnight (EST). Happy iNSD!
Usually I include some tips and tricks in my downloads, but now I am thinking it would also be fun to post them on my blog. I recently released this set of brushstrokes…
…and I wanted to show how they can be used for so much more than just painting up a page. The tutorial below is probably tiny, but the image is clickable so you can see a larger version.
Need some brushstrokes? You can find my set, Paint!, HERE. (link will open a new window). Hope you’ll find this tutorial useful! Enjoy!
