Miss Any Easter Freebies?


These are the same freebies from April 2nd.  Mini-kit #4 was posted on 4shared, but you had to do a "Easter Hunt" over at Bits2Kits.com to get mini-kits 1 through 3.  Well, the Easter Hunt is long over, so I have uploaded the other 3 kits to 4shared for any one who missed them.

But before I give you the new links, I am going to repeat the
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 a nursing home with 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!!

I also want to thank everyone for their words of support.  I will post what happens with regards to getting into the program and if anything changes with my mother.  When I saw her 2 days ago, it was a good day.  She was very alert and talkative, though nothing made sense.  I just nodded and said stuff like "oh my" a lot.  However, she was really retaining fluids and bloated.  Her face looked like somebody had come in with collagen and botox - hardly any wrinkles.  No wrinkles ordinarily is good lol.

I may also have a freebie or two to post later on next month.  There is still a lot of stuff that I have made sitting on my hard drive.  A lot of it is papers, so it might just be paper packs.

Thanks again for the support and here are your 4shared links:

Hoppy Easter and a Freebie

Happy Easter weekend to everyone.  I have a freebie on 4shared for you...
***********  Sorry, freebies have expired  ************

I bet some of you are thinking "Now waitaminute Ann, that was too easy!  You just gave us the link with no sales pitch first?  And why does that preview say Easter Hunt 4?  Is there a 1, 2 and 3?  and how do we get them?"

Yes Virgina, there are 3 more parts to this freebie... and a sales pitch for a sale


That's right, everything is 30% off!!  Not just my stuff, but everybody's. 

And there is an Easter Hunt for freebies, not just from me, but from other designers, too.  (We all used the same color scheme, so they will all go together to make a big collab kit.)  The clues are posted in the Bits2Kits.com forum in the section titled "News" - just click here.  And to further entice you to go hunting, here are the previews for what is hidden by me:


Happy egg hunting!!!  If you need help with more clues, just let me know.  These egg hunt freebies are only for a limited time (I think same as the sale), so don't wait too long.

(and come back after Easter for another freebie)
