Test out my CU Overlay Quality...for FREE!



Click here to download.

Quality products are what I'm all about, and even more so when making commercial use products. Who hasn't been frustrated by spending money on a product, and then opening it up and finding it is unusable because the paper is blurry or there are strays everywhere? So, I'd like you to test out one of my overlays from my Artist Series to see for yourself what great quality they are. These are my original acrylic paintings on high quality artist paper (which accounts for the amazing detail). I've just released my Set II, and look for several more sets to hit stores in October! I've been having a LOT of fun in the art room this month. :) It is 30% off at Faith Sisters this week, you can grab it at Pretty Scrappy for 30% off until the 1st using coupon code STD23 and Designs in Digital will be doing their weekly sale on new releases (50% off Wednesday, 30% off Thursday-Sunday).



Sweet Tomato's Speed Scraps are baaaackk...come join me at Designs in Digital on Wednesday at 9pm EST to learn the Top 7 reasons I lost my mind at DisneyWorld and to finish a kickin' page in no time flat! And look at the template you get just for playing.

I'm ready for fall, pumpkins and Halloween costumes. DD and I are dressing up the same...can't wait to see those pictures and DS I THINK has decided to be a fighter pilot. I think there was a little DH push to that, but I'm sure he'll love it. What's everyone in your family dressing up as?

Just in time to go with the awesome mini-kit, Autumn Bliss, that many of you got for free for signing up for my newsletter...is my new add-on Mask kit. 5 beautiful masks you can use with papers or pictures over and over again, they are my favorite element by far to make and use!

I survived!

DisneyWorld, that is! What on earth were we thinking when we planned a trip with a 2 and a 4-year-old for a WEEK in Orlando. I'm more exhausted then if I had stayed home, lol. The kids on the other hand had a blast, stayed up late, ate a ton of hot dogs, swam like fishes and got to meet Mickey and Minnie Mouse. But, let's just say that I don't see another vacation in our future anytime soon. Here are a few pictures of our whirlwind week:




I've got a few sales going on this week. I'm the featured designer over at Faith Sisters and have an exclusive freebie for you over there, as well as 30% off my shop through Wednesday. Pretty Scrappy is also having a grand re-opening sale this week and Monday and Tuesday is $2 day!
