Leap Into Spring

I know that in some parts of the country today there was a snowstorm and bad tornadoes elsewhere (I hope everyone is all right!), but I had to turn on my a/c today.  The poor dogs were panting.  And I had to put insecticide on several big ant beds, too!  Spring has sprung here, and I have a new kit for spring.  Actually, it is part of a Build-A-Kit series with several other Divine Digital designers.  Some of the parts may look familar because they were used as challenge prizes for the special Leap Day challenges.  But now they are in the store for those who missed out.  And yes, I do have a freebie of some stacked papers made with all 3 of my parts of Leap Into Spring.

I know that some of you are probably squinting your eyes looking at the preview and saying "With pawprints?  uh Ann, where are the pawprints?"  They are there, they are just very subtle for a more sophisticated pet layout.  The two mini-kits have all of the pawprint items (plus 1 plain grungy paper each) while the Add-On kit is all soft watercolor grungy solids with no pawprints.  They all go together for a variety of layouts both with and without cats and dogs.  Here are the separate previews for all 3 parts:

Prices start at $1 each for the two mini-kits (click here and here) and $1.50 for the Add-On (click here).  (I know I'm calling it the "Add-On" but it really is more like it is the main kit and the two mini-kits are the add-on's for pet layouts.)  There is also a special deal to get the two mini-kits together for $1.50 (click here) and to get all 3 for the special low price of $2.75 (click here).

You can download your stacked papers freebie from Divine Digital's secure server by clicking here or from 4shared by clicking here.

And the Leap Into Spring Template freebie is also still available!! 

It is available in 4 versions (layed PSD, layered TIF, layered PSP and individual PNG files) for whatever software program you use.  You can download all 4 together or only the ones you need separately.

Are You Ready To Leap?

The once every four years event of Leap Day is almost here.  And to mark this occasion there are freebies and challenges.  Divine Digital is hosting a special challenge day on February 29th.  For each challenge that you complete, you get a special mini-kit done by the designer who is hosting that challenge.  And I am hosting 2 challenges - so that means 2, count 'em 2, prizes from me!  We have all used the same color scheme so that all of the mini-kit prizes will combine into a nice big mega-kit.  And if you are too busy on February 29th to do all the challenges, the prizes will be in the store on March 1st for purchase.  But I have an extra freebie for you that you don't have to do anything other than click your mouse to get!  I have tried to broaden my horizons (instead of my behind) and created my first template.

I hope you like it!
And I've put my store on sale, too!!

And now I am sure you would like to see the challenge prize mini-kits.

You will be able to find the challenges in the Divine Digital forums on February 29th.  I am not sure at what time the challenges will go live.  After they do as soon as I am able I will edit this post so that clicking on each preview will take you to that challenge.  And if you don't have the time to do the challenges you can still get the mini-kits.  They will be on sale in my store on March 1st.  There will be available for purchase individually or together at a special discounted price.

And now for the links to the freebie template...  It is available in 4 versions (layed PSD, layered TIF, layered PSP and individual PNG files) for whatever software program you use.  You can download all 4 together or only the ones you need separately.

It's Still The Season, right?

OK, I'm really going to have to change my name to Am Tardy if I keep this up, but sometimes life just gets in the way of designing.  And I didn't want to just put what I had already done aside and wait till next year to finish it.  And yes, I also have a sampler "Xtras" freebie for you.

As usual I just couldn't stop making stuff, so this is a really huge kit.  It does color co-ordinate with the Jolly Holiday kit and Jolly Holiday Sprinkles Add-On.  You get:
35 papers (7 grungy solids and the rest patterned)
30 Bows and 45 Ornaments,

Freebies of Christmas Past

I am relisting some freebies from previous years for those who missed them.  Today is the Sweet Christmas Xtras freebie.  I sure did go wild making ornaments....

Sweet Christmas is basically a Build-A-Kit series with the individual pieces priced at just $1 each, but also with several different package deals for big savings.

You can find them in my store on page 2 starting here.  And even better they are all on sale through Christmas!

Now with the individual pieces at $1 each they do not meet the minimum purchase requirement of $1.50, but the special deals do - and you wanted more than one anyway, right?  So shop 'till you drop here!  And here are some Sweet Christmas layouts to give you inspiration, first by me (I did use some templates by Claudi) and then by Dara.

You can download the Sweet Christmas Extras freebie from Divine Digital's secure server here or from 4shared here.

Hybrid Gift Bag Freebie

This set of small gift bags freebie is available today in the Divine Digital Forums.  Instructions for assembly with photos are included, including tips on what I did wrong myself when assembling the bag you see in the photo.

And while you are there, please check out this cool posting contest I am sponsoring.  The winner gets a $20 gift coupon to my store!!  And speaking of my store, don't forget that the Holiday Blitzen sale is going on!!

And in case you missed yesterday's post, I have 5 new products in the store plus a new freebie!

You can purchase the Hark! The Angels Textured Papers here.

Hark! The Angels sing Jolly Holiday Freebie!!

Oh, 'tis the season to loose one's mind!  I have been slaving away over a hot computer getting things ready and in the store.  Lots has been done, but still more to do!

First off everything is on sale 30% off through Christmas Day.  The discount appears in your shopping cart and not on the store prices.  So the real price is 30% off what you see as the lowest price in the store.  The Fine Print:  You must have a minimum purchase of $1.50 to get the extra 30% off discount.  This is because of the high PayPal fees on orders under $1.00.  So the sale price is good on the $1 items, but you have to buy at least two of them.

And speaking of $1 items, there are 3 new ones in the store (actually 4, but I will talk about the 4th one later).  We are having another Build-A-Kit event at Divine Digital.  This is where multiple designers make multiple small kits and kit items all using the same color scheme and theme.  This time the theme is "Hark! The Angels" and these are my three contributions priced at $1 each.

You can purchase the Hark! The Angels Textured Papers here.
You can purchase the Hark! The Angels Alphas Pack here.
You can purchase the Hark! The Angels Nativity set here.

Keep in mind that if you buy two of them (or one with anything else in my store), then they are only 70 cents each during the sale.

And I also have a new kit in the store!!!  Jolly Holiday is great for scrapping all your Christmas photos.  It's a big kit - 350 MB with 22 papers and 256 elements. It's so big I even did an Add-On Mini-Kit for it, too.

The Sprinkles Add-On will also be good for scrapping party pics, especially New Year's Eve pics.  The Sprinkles Add-On is priced at just $1, but with the sale it is only 70 cents when purchased with something else.

You can purchase the Jolly Holiday kit here.
You can purchase the Jolly Holiday Sprinkles Add-On Mini Kit here.
And you can download your Jolly Holiday Xtras Freebie Sampler here from Divine Digital's secure server or from 4shared here.

There are a lot of things going on at Divine Digital for the 12 Days of Christmas.  I am hosting the Chatterbox Posting Challenge where you can win a $20 gift coupon to my store.  Click here to get all the details on how to enter!

I will also have a hybrid freebie for y'all tomorrow (Wednesday December 13th) in the Divine Digital Forums.  And I will be the "Red Nosed Designer" on the 20th with a very special one day only freebie - so don't miss it!!

Sale and Freebie!

Happy Thanksgivin! Yes, it's that time again - Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Small Business Saturday and turkey leftovers.  So I've put everything on sale.

Everything is 30% off.  Discount is taken when you put it in your shopping cart.  The fine print:  minimum purchase of $1.50.  So please buy something here!!!!

And to entice you here to look at the sale add and hopefully buy something, I have a small freebie for you called Dis N Dat.  That's cause it's a mixture of stuff, some leftovers from other kits, some stuff I just made testing out actions, some stuff that somebody asked for and some stuff I can't remember why I made.  But maybe it will be perfect for some layout you are working on.

You get 6 papers 12" x 12" in jpg format.  And in png format the elements are 6 frames, 3 buttons, 3 brads, a rose, one string bow, one lacy bow, one lacy wrap, 6 ribbons (1 curly, 2 folded, 1 flat, 1 curly with bow), 1 heart with ribbons and 2 journaling tags.  All done in 300 ppi for personal use.

You can download from 4shared here or from Divine Digital's secure server here.  And don't forget to go and shop 'till you drop on your keyboard here! 

Sale!!!

Yep, I'm having a sale for Digital Scrapbooking Day, only the sale goes all weekend.  And this time no coupon code.  The discount will appear automatically in your shopping cart.  A minimum purchase of $1.50 is required because of the huge paypal fees for orders under $1.

I've been really busy, so I don't have a new freebie for you, but for those who are already getting snow I am relisting this freebie again.

So check out my store on sale here and buy something please!

You can download the A Winter's Kiss mini-kit freebie on 4shared here.

The two previous posts do have new freebies (HallowBling! and School's Cool).  I'm not sure if the search engines listed them, so scroll back and check and see if you have them or not.

HallowBling! is back and with a treat

Need some bling in your Halloween?

More freebie ribbons, this time folded and curled and roughed up a bit.  Plus a bonus grungy black paper.  But y'all know the drill, before I give you the freebie link, you get the sales pitch for the new kit and the new alphas!

The new HallowBling Alphas come in 8 colors and styles.  You get 16 uppercase letters and 12 punctuation character.  They are great for adding a touch of bling to any Halloween layout.

And here is HallowBling! 3, the third kit in the series and biggest yet.  HB3 has all the blingy papers and Halloween characters that you expect, but new to this kit are the more traditional (but yet still blingy) scrapbooking elements of bows, buttons and flowers.  And even more ribbons - both flat and folded.

Here is a layout done by my CT member Dara for inspiration

As usual, there are all kinds of purchasing options and special deals.
You can purchase just the new HallowBling! 3 kit here.
You can purchase just the new HallowBling! Alphas here.
You can purchase the new HallowBling! 3 kit and the alphas together at a discount here.
And if you missed the previous HallowBling kits, you can purchase all 3 kits together at a discount here or you can purchase all 3 kits and the alpha together for the biggest discount here.

And you can download your HallowBling! Ribbons 2 freebie from 4shared here or from Divine Digitals' secure server here.

And if you missed the previous HallowBling! Ribbons 1 freebie (the regular flat versions of the ribbons) you can still download it from 4shared here or from Divine Digitals' secure server here.


Happy Halloween with some bling!
