Big News & DSO December Color Challenge

First the BIG NEWS! I'm going to have my own store!! I'm so excited - the ladies at AdVENturous Scraps asked if I would like to join the design team and I said yes!



Now I haven't uploaded anything - but keep an eye open because stuff is coming.



I loved Kim B's selection of colors (she always picks the best colors) so much that I used them for my first kit. So my color challenge entry is a sampler of my first kit for sale: The Man Kit.



Here is the sampler - keep checking back for updates on when my store doors open!



You can pick it up here. ** Links Expired**

DSO November Color Challenge

Okay - so I had a lot of fun playing with Kim B's color selection over at DSO's Color Challenge. She always has such a great color palette! I didn't give this month's entry a title.

I'm not sure -but I might put together a Christmas/Holiday themed kit with these colors too. If I do, I'll definitely be posting it on my blog.

My Blog Makeover

Like my new look? It's a huge improvement over what I had previously (which was nothing)! Well, a big "Thank You"!! goes out to Allie Brown (see her blinkie to the left) for the blog background and header. She even has instructions on how to set everything up!

I selected one of her creations using a kit by Sherah at SKrapper Digitals. The kit is called "Thankful" and it seemed appropriate for this month. Plus I'm a sucker for anything autumn themed.

The font on the header is called Cardinal. I don't remember where I got it, but I know it came from one of the free font websites.

Let me know what you think of the new look! And don't forget to check out Allie's site - she's got a lot more options!

Enjoy!

Okay, so with all the posting I did yesterday - I forgot to add the link for the brag book pages that I made using The Mathematician's Assistant's kit. I have added the link to the original post.

ADSD Collaboration - After Dusk (Long post-lots of freebies!!)

Get ready to clear out some hard drive space - the ADSD designers have been at it again! This month's theme is After Dusk. Unfortunately, I don't do much after dusk that doesn't involve my 17 month old toddler. So I went for what I wish I could do after dusk, something romantic and serene.


To be honest, I was having a tough time with this theme - so I decided to make brag book pages for some of the other designers who were kind enough to offer up their kits early. After playing with those, I got inspired to make my own kit and brag book pages! LOL!


So get ready to download because not only do I have my kit and brag book pages, I have brag book pages for three other designers!! Not to mention all of the room you are going to need to download the contributions of all the other talented designers who participated!


Without further ado - the previews & links:


My first set of brag book pages was for the very talented and extremely helpful Deb over at The Scrappin Cop. Make sure you stop by her blog and pick up her awesome kit!

SAS Color Challenge for October

I don't know about you - but whenever I played the game Clue - it seemed like more often than not Miss Scarlet was the guilty one. Boo over at SAS gave the color challenge a theme as well as a color palette this month - Mystery. So, I decided to do a kit based on some of the things you might find in Miss Scarlet's parlor.


Hope you like it!

Moving through my Color Challenges


I will be posting more of my color challenge entries over the next few days. Today's submission is my entry over at the Scraphead Forum. Please note, the drop shadows are for the preview only.
The papers in this kit are special to me - I designed the pattern (the grungy part of the papers is courtesy of Pixel Fairy's CU overlay, but the pattern is something I created). Let me know what you think about the pattern on the papers - I love constructive criticism.
Now, what you have been waiting for - here is the link for the kit, Cool Autumn. Link Expired
