I hope you all enjoy! :) Please give the other designers in the blog train time to put their kits up due to varying time zones.

Christmas card & Sunday Scrappers

Good afternoon from a very rainy and windy Virginia! It may be colder in Ontario where my husband is (and where I'm immigrating to), but at least it's not rainy and windy. Ick. Makes me just want to sit here and eat stew and drink hot cocoa. I have the hot cocoa, but not the stew... eurgh. Oh well...

I've made a Christmas card for everyone!



This was made using Lauren Bavin's gorgeous new kit, A Christmas to Remember. Click here to go see it in the DSP store. I really like how shiny I got the font to look; I used the Diamond Plate action in PSE8.

Sunday Scrappers is having a really great challenge for the next two weeks, which is where the Christmas card idea originated from. Check out the current thread here to read details about that and the hamper that Jill (Greenfingers) will be compiling! If you're not currently a member of DSP, I would love to see you join! It's the one thing keeping me sane while away from my husband :)

Tomorrow is when all of the free kits for Worldwide Christmas Scrapbooking Freebies go up! Don't forget to check back tomorrow for my kit! I will also be putting up my Tasty Treats kit from SNL56, in the slim chance that anyone wants it xD

Corrected kit link!

Hey guys! I was informed that the download link to Christmas in the City was all funky, so I deleted it and reuploaded it. Please let me know if there is still an error, but it should actually work and download as a zip folder this time :)

Free Page Kit

Hi guys! I didn't end up getting CS2 installed, after all... the disc was corrupt and wouldn't install! Grrr. So now I have a trial version of PSE8 and I am LOVING it so far! I haven't stuck to finishing November in the T Dot like I wanted to, but those elements will be coming eventually!

So guess what? I'm giving you all a holiday treat, a Christmas page kit!

Friday the 13th!

Good afternoon, everyone! Or good evening, or good morning, depending where you are :)

I'm moving on from PSP to Photoshop. I found my old CS2 disc, which I'm totally excited about! Now I can get to more proper kit-making and even open my own store after I've practiced a bit.

The elements to November in the T Dot are on their way, slowly but surely. I felt really limited with PSP, but I can do so much more with PS. I want to include things like crystalline "rain", a streetlight element, a nice frame, and a splatter of glitter. My cuter squiggly elements are going in their own small, cutesy grungy kit, which will be called Love in the T Dot. Papers and elements for Love in the T Dot will be released together. Projected release dates for November in the T Dot elements and Love in the T Dot kit is November 20th. Like the Backgrounz!, these will be free for you to download indefinitely. :)

I also have something exciting planned for December! I'm going to do a 12 Days of Christmas here on this blog, running from December 1st to the 12th, each day offering a new surprise freebie. All together, these freebies will be a whole kit!!! They will *not* be up for indefinite download. The kit, with all 12 freebies put together, will be offered free on December 24-26 for those who missed the 12 Days, but after that it will be for sale for just $3.

That's all for now! Now I'm off to install CS2 and get to work!!!

New Item: Backgrounz

Hi guys! This is my first freebie post, and I'm really excited about it! I have a set of Backgrounz! for you, six papers to do with whatever you please (of course crediting my blog when you do so!). They're going to be part of a kit later on, I haven't finished the elements yet for November in the Tee Dot, but I hope to within the next week and offer them up for downloading.

Click the picture to start your download! All Backgrounz! are 12x12 sized and are 200ppi.


November in the Tee Dot's colour scheme is from this photo my amazing mother in law took overlooking Toronto this month.

Do any of you have any suggestions for the elements? I'm making a couple sketchy frames, a journal tag, a border, a trail of golden stars, and I just can't think of what else to make for it. :) I'd love to hear from you!

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my brand spankin' new blog! Here you will soon find some free stuff for your digital scrapbooking needs, including alphas and page kits. You will probably also find some pixel art, life updates, and of course my digital scrapbooking journey as I improve my skills.

I joined Saturday Night Live on DSP, and the theme for this month is "Christmas in the Kitchen". Check SNL 56 out HERE! Here is my FIRST EVER page kit, Tasty Treats!


This kit will be available to the blogging public sometime in January. In the meantime, watch for a couple free page kits (including a Christmas one!!) and other odds 'n ends.

Now I need to go get this blog customized. It's looking pretty bare so far! :)
