Round 4 at GDS Designer Contest

Well I made it round 4. I'm super excited and depressed at the same time. I did my kit but misread the deadline and missed it. But I submitted it to the play-along anyway so you can still download the kit. I'm not happy with the alpha so I will be redoing it before it goes in the store but the rest of the kit is awesome if I do say so myself. Enjoy and please let me know what you think. Just click on either picture to get your download.

Love and Happy Scrappin',

Happy Thanksgiving and GDS Designer Contest Round 3

First of All, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!! to all my friends.

I was super happy to hear last Saturday that I had made it into Round 3 of the GDS Designers Contest. Our challenge this week was one I pray I never have to face again.  Design with only a handful of CU items, no actions, no outside PS help. It was a challenge but I'm glad I did it. And I'm pretty pleased with what I came up with. I hope you like it. The name of the new kit is Sweet Dreams and it comes with a bonus Cluster Frame.

Remember just click the images to go to you download and please leave a comment if you download. I love making this freebies for you and your comments encourage me to keep on working on them.

Round 2 GDS Designer Contest Kit and Freebie Add-On

Sorry to be so late loading this up but I kind of struggled a little with it. What to make, the bright colors, learning a new program...yes, I broke down and joined the Photoshop CS6 world, should it be realistic, doodles, the list goes on. But in the end I made it with 4 hours to spare. LOL!!!! I think it turned out pretty good.

I settled with a tropical beach theme. Going to Hawaii has long been on my bucket list and I'm happy to say that I'm almost there. When I think of Hawaii, I think of tropical plants, tiki mask, surfing, the hula dance,  pretty little girly cocktails in coconut glasses, and the BEACH. I hope you all will enjoy it as much I did making it for you.

Remember to click on the image above to go download the kit freebie at goDigitalScrapbooking. But come back here and grab this great Cluster Border Freebie available right here.

Just click the image above and this download should start right up. And remember to check out my Facebook Fan page this week as the Fan Freebie is changing there this week too. Thanks for checking out my new kit and freebies and please remember if you download, please leave a comment.

Designer Contest @ GDS and a Free Kit

I'm working my behind off redoing preview and loading kits in my new store but in the meantime I have to keep my fans happy so I've decided to do a Designer contest at goDigitalScrapbooking. The contest began Saturday by posting their palette and requirements and I finally got mine up today amid tons of interruptions. But that's what a loving family and awesome GS are good for. Anyway, here is what I need you to do. Go download my kit, enjoy it, make LOs with it and post them in the contest gallery as LOs made with our kits are eligible to win prizes too!!! So without further delay, here is Monkey Shine.

Just click the image above to go to the download site. Since this is a contest you will have to register at GDS to download if you aren't already a fan of theirs. Oh and by the way, if you will check back here later in the week and on my FB page, you might just find a coordinating freebie. And as always, please leave a comment if you download.

Changes and a Freebie

Sorry I've been MIA for a couple of weeks. I've had to deal with some personal family issues which hopefully have been resolved and store drama at Berry Sweet Scraps.

If there is one thing that I can't stand it's DRAMA. And if there's one thing that I hate to deliver is bad news. So it saddens me that I have to share this with you. For reasons that do not involve me, Berry Sweet Scraps has closed it's door. I received an email one day that one of the owners was leaving the store and the next day it was closed. No explanations from the owner except what you can read at one of the smack forums and I don't read then. I want to apologize to those who did my challenge this month but did not receive their posting bonus. So I have decided to make the posting bonus a freebie for one week only on my blog.
On a brighter note, I also want to let you know that I have already found a new home and will be making announcements soon regarding my grand opening there.

It's time for a Super Saturday Bonus

Yes, it's time for a Super Saturday Bonus aka Freebie for you. It started as a LO for the Scraplift Challenge I'm hosting and ended up so cute I decided to share it with you. I used my part of the Falling Into Autumn kits which are currently on sale for just $1 at Berry Sweet Scraps during our Customer Appreciation Days.

 

And let's not forget all the great fun we are having over there this week. I've got two challenges going on. A Storewide Sale and tons of fun. 

 

And let's not forget my monthly challenge for October - the Scraplift Challenge.

And now for what you've been reading all this for - The Super Saturday Bonus. Just click on the image below to download your Freebie.

And please if you download, come back here and leave a comment, thank you, something. I love sharing my talents with you and all I ask in return is a simple thank you.

The 30% Off Sale and all the fun and games go away on Sunday, October 7. But there is still time to get in on the fun and take advantage of all the great deals, freebies, and more.

One of the games I'm hosting is the I Spy challenge. Like the children's game I'll give you a list of 10 things, along with some great hints to get you to where I'm sending you. It's lots of fun and a great way to learn your way around BSS if you are newbie over there. Everyone wins and the first three finished get and extra special prize.

I also want to take a few minutes to remind you of my Facebook Fan Page Freebie you can grab just for liking my Fan page. I used one yesterday to update the look of my personal Facebook page. Take a look

 It's Customer Appreciation Days Berry Sweet Scraps. We will be having all kinds of fun and games, give aways, RAKS, Sales, Red Door items, you name it. The entire store is 30% off this week. So be sure to check out my store. We also have a group of mini kits that coordinate so you can design your very own kit. These are the four mini's I've added and they are all on sale for just $1.

 And while you are at Berry Sweet Scraps check out the fun in the forum this week. I'm hosting two fun games with giveaways, Moo's Make a Wish and Moo's I Spy Challenge.

My Make a Wish game is super simple. Want to get one of my kits for free???? It's easy go to my store and pick out what you would like to have. Come back to this thread in the forum, post a picture of the kit and the link and start crossing your fingers and toes. I will be picking random winners off and on during the week to get their wishes filled. So starting wishing.

My I Spy Challenge is a little more difficult but everyone who plays wins here.  Ever play the game I Spy as a child? As a grandparent, I still get to play the game quiet often with my little man. We have lots of giggles and belly laughs over his little games and need to win.

So I was thinking how about an I Spy game at BSS, in the store, gallery, and forum....To make it a little easier I will tell you which area I'm looking at like gallery, whose store, etc. Some items I'm looking for may be your introduction in the forum or where you've introduced yourself to someone else. All easy task (remember I'm used to playing this with a 5 y/o so my clues are easy).

At the end of the game, pm me a list of your answers with links and you received a coupon for $5 off a $10 purchase from my store. The first three to finish will also get a kit of their choice free from my store. Have fun and enjoy.

Here's my list of I Spy items....

1) I'm looking in my store and spying some that could give a little fright when these little creature come knocking at your door at night.
2) This Mega kit in colors bright as spring is sure to lift your spirits and make your thing of joyful things.
3) I come around each fall and mark the end of summer bliss for children, tweens, and teens as they head off to me again. This bright by Jiovanna will be a hit to scrap your little one's LO as off to here they go lickedy split.
4)I'm a email that you can't miss, I'll tell you the sales, new kits, freebies you can get.
5) I'm another place to find the news. I'll give you freebies and tuts too. If inspiration is what you wish, just check in on me and I'll give you, all that you wish.
6) If inspiration is something you need, then come visit me. My pages and pages are sure to please. When you find me, here's all I ask. Comment on five and send the links in with the rest.
7) In the forum you will find me. I'm filled with challenges for you to best. Check them all out and finish just one. Send me the link to your layout and forum post and you are done.
8) I'm the place in the forum to say hello. Introduce yourself here and say hi to 3 more. Send me your links and you are through.
9) I'm spying a thread in the forum again. One where sweetness abound and treats are left to be found. Find them forum and you will get special treat left by Designers and others for you to get. Send me the link to this area and enjoy the sweetness that you found.
10) I'm the last item on the list to spy. You will find me in the gallery and I come in all kinds of designs. Place one or more of me in your siggy and show the world you are a fan. Send me the link to where you found it.

Bonus: This one is not require to get your prize but if you like the BSS FB Fan page, my FB Fan page and sign up for my newsletter, you will get a freebie from all three.

Hope to see you there.

Have I told you lately I'm having a Back to School Sale. LOL.  If you are are like me you forget so....

So pleeeeze, drop by the store and pick up a kit or two and get scrapping on some of the challenges in the forum. Speaking of the forum, we will be having Customer Appreciation Days at BSS October 1-7 and there will be tons of fun going on. I'm hosting two events...A Make a Wish event and an I Spy Challenge both should be great fun. We will also be having a Scavenger Contest throughout the store.

But how about dropping by the forum now and checking out the fun we are having in there now. I'm hosting two challenges this month. I told you about the Calendar Challenge yesterday, so today I'm sharing the Journaling Challenge. This month I simply asked you to scrap about our own or one of our loved one's first day of school. You don't have to journal much but the more the better. Remember we are creating memories here.

 Here's one I did last year for my GS using Amanda Thorderson's It's Elementary kit.
