And before I give you the link for the freebie, I am going to make a

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT

I am going to be taking a hiatus from designing.  There is a lot going on in my personal life right now.  My mother has Alzheimer's, which is getting bad.  She is in hospice care now.  Also, I am trying to get into an Alternative Teacher Certification Program and become a high school math teacher.  I have to go take the THEA test, which means I need to do some test prep work.  There just isn't much time for designing, plus I am often too stressed to be creative.  This means that my store at Bits2Kits.com will be closing on April 30th.  And it also means that until then everything is on sale!!!  40% to 50% off on all items!!  So please, check out the sales here before everything is gone at the end of the month!!

(And please say a prayer/think positive thoughts for my mother and for me to get into the teacher's program!)

*****  Update 8/1/2011  *****  Sorry, freebie is no longer available  ******

No freebie yet, but a sale

The bad news is that day 27 freebie is not up yet over at Bits2Kits.com. But the good news is that means that the day 26 freebie and all the day 25 freebies are still up, so hurry over there if you haven't gotten them yet.

And more good news is that myself and some of the other designers are having a 35% off after Christmas sale for the rest of the month.

As soon as the day 27 freebie gets put up and I realize it, I will post the preview for it here along with a second freebie for y'all on 4shared.

In the meanwhile, please go check out my sale here

And for your viewing pleasure, here are a couple of layouts made with my "Paws 4 Christmas" kit:

A Winter's Kiss Blog Train Freebie

Choo Choo Get on Board for the Bits2Kits Blog Train Freebies!! Here is my part of "A Winter's Kiss"

But wait.... as usual I am going to give you a sales pitch before giving you the freebie link...

As a special promotion for National Digital Scrapbooking Day, I have made available for a limited time my newest kit "Eclectic Mix 1" as a PU Grab Bag for only $1 - JUST A DOLLAR!!

I suppose you want some hints as to what is in it?? Well, you get the bags and the purses because they go with the kit - that's go with the kit in terms of the colors, not that the theme is fashion or girly. The theme is, well, there really isn't a theme. It's an Eclectic Mix - get it? The kit started out with some papers and frames and embellishments and an alpha that I made some time ago to do some layouts. I added some flowers and ricrak and bows and other frames and other papers, etc etc.

Hmmm.... wanna see the layouts? Well ok....

and then there's also this set of layouts


Aren't they just so cute when they are being naughty??

Now I don't want you to think that this is only for cocker spaniels - there are other dog breeds, cats, horses and rabbits, pawprint stuff, along with plenty of non-animal stuff. There is like 139 MB of stuff plus the alpha, too.

You can get the Grab Bag of Eclectic Mix 1 for just $1 here

And everything else is on sale for 30% off here

OK, since you have been good through the sales pitch, here is the link to download the freebie A Winter's Kiss here
