"Grandmother's House"

The long awaited "Grandmother's House" by Derek M Designs has been released. This kit is going to be pretty big so it's divided into parts. You can still snag the first part on Derek's blog.

Anneli over at Attic Treasures has created these fantastic elements to "Grandmother's House", you can snag these over on Anneli's blog.

Be sure to check back for the remaining parts to build your fabulous "Grandmother's House" LO's. Derek's CT (which I am honored to be a part of) was able to play with the kit first and I made a couple QP's for you too. Here are the previews for them:

Of course you will have to wait on these for a day or two....I have to give you time to relish over the two parts above, hehehe....

DSO April Color Challenge


I finally got it done! Hope you like it. The colors were a bit of a challenge for me and suprisingly enough I made everything myself except the flower which is a CU PSP Script from Lauren Hill and the brushes which are listed in my TOU. Had some awesome finds when I went searching for brushes.

Challenges & Freebies

The challenges for April are all up and ready! For the April Color Challenge, I posted my part and the swatch. All you have to do is design something and share it with everyone who has created (and shared) with you...previous and future posts. It's a give and take kind of challenge. Plus it gives those that have wanted to design something a little push in that direction. It can be a paper, a button, a ribbon...it doesn't have to be a kit. You can even make a QP if you want...the whole idea is to share something that you have made.
Come and check out this thread at Digital Divas Designs .

Here is my part of the color challenge:


And if you want more...check out this thread . Complete all three challenges and you get this kit too.

This one was a little tough to do as the colors did not flow. I probably started over 4 times before I finally got the look I wanted....and the name Fresh Start came to mind.

"Spring Cleaning" my hard drive....

and you get all the benefits! I forgot all about these two kits. I made them both back in 2007 when I started learing this wonderful hobby that we all share. I never got the preview together for "Perfect Spice" so it just sat on my hard drive until now. I threw a preview together and voila....here ya go...

The ribbon with the eyelets...that was my quest at the time this kit was created. I was on a mission to learn how to make my own ribbon which I think I've accomplished...but still can't make my own bow!! The sad thing is that I DIDN'T SAVE THE TEMPLATE!! Yes, I know, I can kick myself. Oh well, it gives me an excuse to be on the computer, LOL. Have fun.

It's A Girl Thing

Here is my latest creation. I've been doodling with other colors and trying out new techniques. I did use a few CU items for the bows and flowers (I still can't make a bow to save my life). Working on that though!

A QP or Two...

I made this one a while back and never put it up...It didn't work well with my pictures and as I've seen from past things I've made there is always someone out there that could use it. So I've decided to go ahead and put it up. I think I might put the whole kit up...I'll see how well the QP goes before I do that...gotta keep that bandwidth in mind ya know. Anyway, enough yakin', here ya go...

Download HERE


Here is a QP from a kit I made for Digital Divas Designs March Color Challenge prize.....I won't be able to post the whole kit as a freebie, that wouldn't be fair to those who actually participated in the challenge to earn it right? It will be available at Scrapdebris in about a week or so for $1.
