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!

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!

In the meantime, you can enjoy playing with the sampler pack I've created for you.  Once you start playing with that, you're definitely going to want the whole thing!  But hurry, the sampler is only free until Sunday, November 25.  You can download the sampler by clicking the image.

Have fun with it, and keep making and scrapping those memories!

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!

Of Tricks and Treats... and Freebies!

If you're anything like me, you'll be spending this last weekend making sure that costumes are ready, there's a good supply of candy on hand for the trick-or-treaters next Wednesday, and your camera is charged and ready for pictures!

Of course, you'll be needing a great kit to scrap those pictures with, and I have the perfect kit for you.

Of Tricks and Treats

Of Tricks and Treats is loaded with 19 papers and more than 40 elements ranging from just a little spooky to downright adorable!  It's a great kit for capturing the fun of trick-or-treating, pumpkin carving, and Halloween parties.  You can pick it up in my store at Scraps-N-Pieces.  Pick it up by between now and Halloween night, and save 40% off the regular price of $4.99!  Here are 2 layouts created with the kit to provide you with some inspiration:

A Long Overdue Freebie

Well, they say that sometimes life throws us a curveball.  In my case, though, it was a curveball followed by a spitball.  I was cut off from my designing life for seven weeks.  Definitely not a whole lot of fun.  Things are (mostly) back to normal now, and I have just finished an absolutely adorable Halloween kit that I'm super-excited to get into my store!  But first, I owe you all a freebie.  It was my part of the August SNP blog train that I wasn't able to post.  Here it is, and enjoy!

I'll be back with more news in just a couple of days.  For now, have fun with this little freebie, and keep making and scrapping those memories!

Celebrating My Birthday With a Freebie and a Sale!

I have a birthday coming up in a few weeks, so I decided to celebrate my birthday for the entire month of August!  I'll be bringing you freebies, contests, and a month-long sale at my store at Scraps N Pieces!   So let's get right to the details.

If you're anything like me, you have scrapped dozens and dozens of pages of other people's birthdays - kids, spouses, significant others, parents, grandparents.  The only person you have no birthday pages for is yourself.  At least, that's how it is in my situation.  So in honor of my birthday, I'm creating a kit called It's My Party.  It's a birthday kit meant for us.  It's whimsical, bright, and fun, but not childish.  The full kit won't be released until August 27, but I have a coordinating Sampler Pack you can download for free right now!  Best of all, if you create a page with the sampler pack and upload to either my gallery at Scraps N Pieces or to my Facebook page, I'll send you a coupon for 50% off the full kit!

It's My Party - Sampler Pack

There's no need to wait for the end of August to pick up one of my kits, though.  As I said, my entire store is on sale.  Since I'm turning 29 (again!), my entire store with the exception of August Bits N Pieces, is on sale for 29% off through the end of August.

So, grab the freebie, pick up a new kit or two, and don't forget to post your work on my SNP gallery or Facebook page.  Now go make and keep some memories!

Road Trips!

Do you love the open road?  Have you loaded up the car and piled in with your family for a trip to see the sights?  Do you make that long drive to grandma's house for the holidays?  If you have ever traveled  by car, then J.D.zYnes has the perfect kit to scrap photos of your journey:

Hittin' the Road

Hittin' the Road is a bright, fun kit that is loaded with beautifully detailed papers and elements that will help you create some fantastic pages.  There are 18 papers and more than 50 embellishments.  Themed embellishments include highway signs, cars, a suitcase, a backpack, a luggage tag, and an adorable traffic light 3-photo frame.  There are plenty of non-themed elements as well, making this a very versatile kit.  Take a look at the layout I created using the kit:

One of my CT members, Amy, created this layout that I am just absolutely crazy about:

Grab Hittin' the Road between now and Friday, July 20 and save 30%.  Pick it up today or tomorrow (July 13 or 14), and take an extra 15% off the reduced price using coupon code HTR_Release15.

Night Owl

The rich color palette captures the beauty and mystery of a clear, moonlit night.  It's perfect for scrapping your late night adventures or even the kids sneaking out for a late night snack.  But with it's great variety of non-themed elements, Night Owl is a great choice for just about any page.  Best of all, it's 40% off through the weekend!  Here's what I created with it.
