BIG CHANGES!!!

2008-09-19T12:27:00.000-07:00

When I started selling my kits many months ago, I had no idea how much time it was going to take to promote my kits and try to boost my sales. After a lot of thought, I've realized that I was spending WAY too much time on it. I LOVE designing kits. And I've finally gotten good enough at it that I sometimes prefer to use my own kits for certain layouts rather than the kits I've bought from other designers. But the money just isn't there. There are a lot of people out there these days who can't afford to spend money on digital scrap kits.

So I've decided to go back to where I started. From this point on, all the new kits I create will be available for free download on this blog. I've added a donation button, so you can give me a buck here and there if you are able to do that. It would be much appreciated. But ONLY if you really really love my kits!

Just to be clear, I did not resign from Digital Candy for any reason other than the ones I mentioned above. I don't want anybody to jump to any conclusions. I never had any personal conflicts with anyone at Digital Candy. They are all great there and do their very best to help the designers get their names out there. So I want to give a big shout out to everybody at Digital Candy. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!

Here are some recent layouts I've done.

Please check my store and then come back here and get your freebie! Thanks!

Add-On Pack Free if You Buy the Kit!

2008-07-10T11:54:00.000-07:00

It's an odd number of quickpages, but maybe I'll add more
sometime in the new few weeks. Anyway, here's the new
add-on pack! Do you like it? I really like the way the
brackets turned out and the polka dot pattern seemed to
work really well with it.

You can check out more by going to my store. Have fun!

My husband wants me to make some money at this and I
can't do that without you! Sounds desperate, huh? Well,
I really do love designing and would love to continue to do this!!

Back from Florida and New Kit Coming Soon!

2008-06-30T20:00:00.000-07:00

OMG! I was totally missing my bed after two weeks in Florida. They actually lost our luggage coming back from Orlando and I picked this one time to pack all the kids' medications and mine in the CHECKED baggage (duhhhh!) Luckily we got it the next day. Unfortunately, Cameron came home with strep throat which he proceeded to give me and now his older brother has it and possibly his Dad too (who is out in Omaha working). So it's been an exciting and stressful couple of weeks.

My DH and I celebrated our 6-year anniversary at Chili's with both the kids. Woo-hoo! Exciting stuff! Yep, we were in bed by eleven (sleeping, not what you think!) My house is ridiculously in need of cleaning, my precious plants in the front yard are dying and my throat still hurts. But both the kids are sleeping peacefully (for the moment) and otherwise I have the house to myself!

I hosted a birthday bash challenge at Digital Candy this past weekend that ends tonight. For those of you who actually check this blog on a regular basis (people check this blog on a regular basis????!?) I'm sorry I haven't updated until tonight. As I explained, I've been busy with sick kids and other fun stuff.

There's a new kit coming out soon! Woo-hoo! Here's a quick preview for you. I'm offering a free copy of the kit to whoever comes up with the best name for it over at Digital Candy. You can check out that forum thread here.

Summer Sunshine! New Kit Full of Glitter! And Freebie!

2008-06-11T06:42:00.000-07:00

Yes, I have a new one for you boys and girls and junkies! This one is packed with glittery what-nots and fun bright colors! You can get the full kit at Digital Candy and you can come back here afterwards and get the freebie pack! Enjoy! Please leave me some love if you download and PLEASE check out the store!

New Freebie and New Kit! Garden Party!

2008-06-04T13:10:00.001-07:00

Here's another new kit and matching freebie pack for you! Are you liking the look of this one?
This may be my last kit for a few weeks because we're going to Florida for two weeks. First we're heading to Ft. Lauderdale and Ft. Myers to visit family and then we're off to Disneyworld for a week! Woo-hoo! Anyway, if you don't hear anything from me for awhile, don't worry too much. I will be back to work designing kits sometime around the 26th of June. So expect something new by the end of this month!

Please take a look at my store and then come back here and get your freebie pack! Enjoy!

Sparkle Treats! (And a Freebie!)

2008-06-02T15:47:00.000-07:00

I just put together this little set of pop-sickles to celebrate Summer!
You can get the personal use kit at Digital Candy for just $1.99! There
is also a freebie link at the bottom of this post, so check out the pics!

Get the sparkle pack here and the freebie is located here. Enjoy!

Here's a new one! The freebie pack can be found here.
If you'd like the entire kit, go to Digital Candy and get
it for only $3.99!! Enjoy!

American Idol - David A. or David C????

2008-05-06T20:42:00.000-07:00

David Cook or David Archuleta?

Of course, I still give Syesha credit for being an awesome singer. But will she be able to overcome all the girl votes coming in for the Davids?

As for Jason, he definitely has a place in the music industry. He's just not right to win this competition.

David Cook's performances tonight lacked something. There wasn't much of a spark. Maybe it was just his song choices.

David A. (or his handlers) seem to have directly targeted the millions of young girls watching this show and are turning him out brilliantly. I just hope he doesn't end up being a male version of Britney. He's SO young. I wish the best for him. I think when it comes down to pure talent and showmanship, he's definitely going to be the winner.

JUNKIE CLUB MEMBERS: If you want this kit, please check your e-mail. I have e-mailed the correct
links to the e-mail address you used
when you signed up for the Junkie Club.

Some Like It Hot Freebie

2008-04-08T06:39:00.000-07:00

I put together a little freebie pack for you junkies.

If you're in the Junkie Club, I've got good news and bad news. Good news? The new kit is uploaded in its entirety and you can get it now from the Junkie club folder. The bad news? Well, maybe not so bad depending on what you've downloaded already. I've taken several older kits out of the club folder that weren't very popular. If you find that you want an older kit from me, just e-mail me and I'll see what I can do. I had to make room in the club folder because I was starting to run out of room. I want to have enough room for my new kits.

Get your freebie fix here, leave me some love and please go on over to Digital Candy, because they do have "free candy" at the store as well as some awesome kits for sale! And hey, my stuff is still 30% off right now so check out my store!

Some Like It Hot - New Kit Available Soon!

2008-04-07T20:14:00.001-07:00

The teen kit got pushed to back burner for now, but lookie here! I've got another one for you! Is this one SMOKIN' hot or what?

I just finished the previews, so it's not even zipped or uploaded to the Junkie Club folder yet. Tomorrow, I should have everything uploaded. It will probably go on sale at Digital Candy tomorrow night or Wednesday.

I will probably put together a little freebie pack as well to go with it. Maybe some quickpages?

By the way, I know I almost NEVER do this, but I actually put together an Alpha set for this kit. Check back tomorrow for a freebie pack!

Angel in My Arms

2008-04-04T18:48:00.001-07:00

It's back! I've set up Angel in My Arms to be sold at Digital Candy. For my Junkie Club members, you can access this in the Club folder now if you haven't downloaded it already.

Aloha Sunrise and Free Sampler!

2008-04-03T19:43:00.001-07:00

It's done! I hope you guys like it. I got inspired to do this after I recolored a couple of things from Tuscan Sunrise to make one of the layouts you see below. Anyway, I am uploading it to the Junkie Club Folder right now and Digital Candy should have it for sale in the next day or two.

Get your free sample pack here. It includes three papers and four elements.

Attention Junkie Club Members!

2008-04-03T15:06:00.000-07:00

I want you guys to know that I haven't forgotten about you. It's been awhile since I've added anything to the Club folder, and I apologize for that. But hang in there, because I do have a couple of things in the works! And I am probably going to offer subscriptions to the Junkie Club again. Here's a little sneak peek at something I've been working on. This is going to be Part 2 of the Sunrise Collection. Tuscan Sunrise was the first, and most of you Junkie Club members have seen Tuscan Sunrise. I'm changing up the colors and adding some new things to it to create Aloha Sunrise. It's not going to be a simple recolor, folks. But I'm about halfway done with it, so check back soon for more info.

All My Stuff is 30%!!!

2008-04-03T08:15:00.000-07:00

Another Layout!

2008-04-02T20:27:00.001-07:00

This layout was done (believe it or not) using the Tuscan Sunrise kit. I just altered the colors of the kit pieces to match the photos. What do you think?

Tuscan Sunrise is available at Digital Candy.

2008-04-02T20:23:00.000-07:00

Here's a layout I did using my kit called "Lingering Lavender" which will be available soon at Digital Candy. Aren't these fantastic pictures of my Nanny? She passed away about ten years ago, but I miss her very much.

Digital Candy is Back in Business!! Woo-hoo!

2008-04-02T20:15:00.000-07:00

Digital Candy is back up, ladies! Yaaayyyy! So if you've been checking out the kits in the slideshow on the right, thinking about buying one of them, now's your chance!

Digital Candy Down for Maintenance

2008-03-30T16:22:00.000-07:00

Digital Candy will be down for a day or two. They are switching servers because they've exceeded their bandwidth! Which is actually pretty good news. The bad news is that my sale is delayed until they get the site back up. In the meantime, I will be putting together another freebie grab bag for my junkies!

Welcome to the New Blog, Junkies!!!

2008-03-30T13:21:00.000-07:00

Yep, it's a brand new start with a brand new name and a new blog! What do you think so far? Is this cool or what? Here's the latest freebie again (I gotta fill up this glorious new space!)

Spring is here! And that means new beginnings! To celebrate our new name and the coming of Spring, I'm bringing you a freebie grab bag! It's stuffed with my own little doo-dads. It's a hodge-podge assortment of elements, some of which have never been released!

In addition to the grab bag, I'm having a big sale over at Digital Candy! The sale starts Monday, April 1st. All my stuff is 30% off until April 9th! So please check it out!
