A Happy New Year Gift!

I hope you're enjoying scrapping with It's the Holiday Season.  When I posted that gift kit last week, I told you to make sure to like my Facebook page because there just might be a New Year's surprise showing up.  Just as I said, I created one for you.  So without further ado, here is It's the Holiday Season ~ New Year's Add On.

Remember that this add on is a fan exclusive on my Facebook page, so head on over there now to like it.  I can't wait to see the pages you create with this, so keep making and scrapping memories!

A Holiday Gift for You!

Sometimes when I'm scrapping holiday photos, I get frustrated because I have Christmas photos and Hanukkah photos to scrap.  I want them to coordinate, but it's next to impossible to find coordinating kits.  I took matters into my own hands this year and created one fun, very festive kit that covers both holidays.  The kit is called It's the Holiday Season, and it's my freebie gift to you!

This is a full size kit with 19 papers, over 70 elements including Christmas-themed elements, Hanukkah-themed elements, and non-themed elements, as well as a full alpha/numerical/symbols set.

Element Pack
Paper Pack 1
Paper Pack 2

I love the fresh, festive colors of the kit and the wide variety of fun elements.  Whether you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, or both, this is the perfect kit to scrap those holiday memories.  So make sure you download it by 11:59 PM Eastern time on December 30.  I would love to see the pages you make with the kit, so please stop by my Facebook page and post your work so we can enjoy it.  Make sure you have liked my Facebook page, because a coordinating New Year's surprise is likely to appear next week!  Until then, keep making and scrapping your memories.

Back to School and TWO Freebies!

The backpack is full of shiny new school supplies, your child is dressed in their new clothes, lunches are packed.  That can only mean that it's back-to-school time.  Preserve these memories with Gotta Go Back.  

Its deeper play on traditional school kit primary colors and its wide variety of school-themed and non-themed elements make it a perfect choice for scrapping photos of boys and girls, kindergarteners through high schoolers.  You're sure to make some fabulous layouts with the 21 papers and more than 60 elements in this kit.  Take a look at these layouts for some inspiration:

Lazy Days Freebie!

Yesterday, I released a new kit called Lazy Days.  It's bright, summery, and fun!

I had such a good time creating it, that I decided to make a little sampler pack to go with it.  Sampler packs are freebies that I make to give my customers and curious scrappers a little taste of my creations.  Once you play with the Lazy Days Sampler Pack, I think you'll want the whole kit.  It's available in my store for only $3.00 through this Friday!

Without further ado, here's your sampler pack:

Enjoy, and keep making and scrapping your memories!

Lazy Days of Summer

Those lazy, hazy days of summer are upon us.  These are the days when we just want to sit in a chair with a cold drink.  Maybe we're by the pool, maybe on the beach.  Maybe we're just relaxing in our own backyards.  Kids are sucking on ice pops and we're all trying to beat the heat.  Lazy Days is the perfect kit to capture your summer memories.

Go to JDzYnes Store

With its bright summer palette, 18 papers, and a wide variety of themed and non-themed elements, you're sure to get a lot of use out of this versatile kit.  Look at these beautiful layouts done by my creative team:

Holiday Trimmings brings to your scrapbook pages, cards, and paper crafting projects, the elements of a traditional Christmas.  You'll find flair ornaments, plenty of ribbons and blows, hand-cut snowflakes, and touches of glitter.  The gorgeous traditional color palette of greens, reds, and gold is perfect for Christmas photos from years past as well as the ones you'll take this year.

You can pick up Holiday Trimmings for 35% off through Friday, December 28.  You'll receive a bonus gold alpha for FREE with your purchase if you grab the kit by the 28th.

Santa's Heading for the Tropics!

Each year we see them... Christmas scrapbooking kits filled with deep reds and greens, sleighs, and lots and lots of snow.  It makes it very difficult for me to find Christmas kits to scrap with since I live in Florida.  So this year, I decided to solve my own problem and I'm sharing that solution with you.  Presenting...

Santa in the Tropics

This fun, whimsical kit is dedicated to and perfect for everyone whose Christmas doesn't mean cold and snow.  It's for northern hemisphere southerners, everyone south of the equator for whom Christmas is a summer holiday, people who vacation at Christmas time to escape frosty conditions, and anyone who has ever dreamed of a warm Christmas rather than a white Christmas.

Santa in the Tropics is loaded with 20 papers and more than 50 elements.  There are so many possibilities with this kit.  Just look at these layouts done by my fabulous creative team.

New Release and a CyberMonday Sale!

I'm so excited that my new kit Dinner at Plimoth is releasing today!  Dinner at Plimoth is my nod to the settlers and Native Americans who came together to celebrate the harvest.  I even spelled Plimoth the way they did instead of our more modern spelling of Plymouth (admit it... you thought I just spelled it incorrectly!).  

The kit is full of richly textured papers and elements.  There are fun Thanksgiving characters, including a turkey so adorable, he'll make you want to eat pizza every Thanksgiving from now on!  There are also plenty of basic, non-themed elements, making this a perfect kit to scrap your fall photos with.

You'll definitely want to pick this kit up today because it's 50% off!!!  That's just for today though, so hurry.  After today, you can save 35% by using coupon code DAP_Release35.  Note that the coupon will not work today.  There is no coupon necessary to save the 50% today.

Take a look at a couple of great layouts made with the kit.

And just in case you missed it, I made a freebie sampler pack that coordinates the kit.  It's definitely a must have, so grab it while you still can.  Just click the image to download.

So, what are you waiting for?  Go grab Dinner at Plimoth in my store at SNP!  And while you're at it, pick up some of the other kits you've had your eye on, because my entire store is on sale for CyberMonday!  Save 40% off everything,  except for Dinner at Plimoth, which is 50% off.

Thanks for stopping by, and remember to keep making and scrapping those memories!

Preview and Sampler Pack Freebie!

I have created a Thanksgiving kit, that I am absolutely in love with!  It took me a bit longer than I thought it would because I agonized over every little detail, so the kit won't be released until just after Thanksgiving.  It will be perfect for scrapping pics of this year's holiday meal as well as photos of the kids in their school Thanksgiving programs!  I have a preview of it for you as well as an Add-on Sampler Pack Freebie to whet your appetite for the full kit.

As you can see, the kit is full of rich fall colors, fun characters, and detailed elements.  It's a Thanksgiving must have.  Head on over to my Facebook page, and leave a comment on the preview thread there for a chance to win the full kit when it's released!

Alpha Freebie!

With my two weeks as SNP featured designer coming to an end tonight, I have decided to leave you all with a little freebie.  I've created a fun polka-dot alpha that coordinates with my Of Tricks and Treats kit.  You can download the alpha by clicking the image.

It's been a fun two weeks!  Stay tuned for more fun, more freebies, and a soon-to-be-released Thanksgiving kit.  Until then, remember to keep making and scrapping those memories!

New Facebook Freebie and a Fan Blinkie!

To celebrate Digital Scrapbooking Day, I have updated my Facebook page with a new fan freebie!  It's a really fun set of plastic coated wire flowers.  They're versatile, customizable, and will add a great touch to all your pages.

I also, at long last, have a fan blinkie to share with you.  You can snag it from the right column of my blog page.  Add it to your forum signatures.  If I see you wearing it in the forums, you just might find yourself on the receiving end of a RAK!

Finally, don't forget that I'm the featured designer over at Scraps-N-Pieces through November 15.  Join me for challenges, freebies, and fun!
