Elements for Nostalgic Novelty

July 25, 2007

This site makes my previews look horrible no matter what I do, rofl. But still I LOVE how they turned out. I feel like these are the best elements I made sofar. Lots of new stuff to me. Come to think of it, I never did any of these elements before, besides a staple. So I learned a lot from this. I would loooove to hear what you all think of it.

Here’s the link.

Last weekend I met up with the other members of the design team at Pien. They are all working on a ‘paper’ album that people can make in an all day workshop this fall. They get to make an entire 20 page album that day! I will be putting together an online workshop with a digital version of this. That means I will be making 20 (!) templates and a full kit, so that people can also make a complete album in a day right at home. I wanted to see what the team is all doing and get inspiration for the digital version by looking at the colors and materials they are using. I really look forward to this, but it also means I will be pretty busy for a while, putting this all together. Although I hope to squeeze in a couple of freebies for you every now and then. :)

Here it is!

Here’s the freebie! It’s a little late, but here nonetheless. I created a paper pack for you called Nostalgic Novelty. I thought the colors were a bit of a mix of ‘old & new’.

I will create some elements to go with it as well, but right now I just wanted to give you something!

So here’s the link.

I hope you enjoy and please leave some love if you pick it up!

Links are restored

July 18, 2007

I just restored all the links, so you can download my freebies again. Yay!
I’m going to work on that new freebie. Just never got to it this past week, but I’ll try to have it here today or tomorrow.

I messed up!

July 11, 2007

Man, I really messed up my downloads!
I put a password on the ‘Doodlicious’ kit to make sure that only the right people would be able to download that kit. But I didn’t know that in doing that, I put the password on every single one of my files. And I don’t know how to fix that without messing up the links. I would have to go and change every single link here on my blog after changing it in my 4shared account. Frankly, I don’t have the time to do this, so I decided to leave it like this until I can take down the link for the ‘Doodlicious’ kit. Unfortunately, that means that everyone who didn’t play in the Page-A-Day challenge and got the password, can’t download any of the other freebies until then. The kit can be downloaded until July 17th, so early on July 18th I’ll make sure that all my downloads are available again. Please bear with me until then if you want to download something! I’ll see if I can make it worth your while with a new freebie by then!
Thanks!

Look what I’ve been up to!

July 3, 2007

I have been playing in the Page-A-Day challenge at SBB pretty much since it has started in January. I didn’t get the required amount of LO’s every month, but I still linked every single layout I did so that it would count for the challenge. I know there’s been a whole lot of ladies who have been doing the same and also not always made the required amount of LO’s. So about a month ago, I cooked up this little idea to give away a kit to everyone that has been participating in PAD for these last six months. We’re halfway in this challenge, so I wanted to give everyone a little heads-up to keep going. I teamed up with Fantacy Bryant (the scrappin’ HillBilly) to make this wonderful kit:

What we have here is:
11 papers
5 ribbons
1 fuzzy fiber
2 stickers
5 journaling tabs
1 staple
4 buttons
1 summer wordart
1 arrow
1 circle mat
1 scratchy border overlay
2 wordart (blue and checkered)

Fantacy has been so busy lately, now that she’s a DTM at SBB, so I’m really happy that she still found the time for this lil’ project.

So, if you have been playing in Page-A-Day (and linked more than one or two LO’s, LOL) keep an eye on your Private Messages at SBB, ’cause this goodie is coming your way!
