Fresh Friday

Fresh Friday

It’s FRIDAY!!!! Can you believe it is the LAST Friday of September??!!! Fall is in full swing here in the Midwest, and oh how I love fall. I’m just really not looking forward to what comes next. {Yikes!}  Today, we have some FUN items from Delightfully Distressing Designs and Loopy4Digis.

To start us off, Delightfully Distressing Designs was certainly in the fall spirit with her new kit – Autumn Whimsy.  There are over 50 elements in the element pack and 12 papers in the paper pack.

Next up is Loopy4Digis, and I’m not really sure where her inspiration came from, but I’m LOVING IT! Her items are all over the place, but oh so WOW!

First up we have a FUN Cosmetic Border:

Next is an Ethnic Woman who needs to cosmetics – how gorgeous is she?!

You can usher in the good will with the fabulous Kokopelli:

And last, but CERTAINLY not least, is this FUN FUN FUN Lava Lamp:

I certainly can’t wait to PLAY with these FUN images; which one is your favorite????  Just wait until you see our SPECIAL NEW digital collection coming on Monday.

ALL of these new beauties could easily be used in our current challenge. Won’t you play along?


So Berry….Sweet!

So Berry….Sweet!

Don’t you love pet pages? When I saw the So Berry…Sweet digital paper collection from Green Goddess Creations, I knew it would be perfect for show-casing my Great Dane, Ceelie. I had a lot of fun working with these papers, and realized that they are so versatile and would be great for most any kind of layout. Have fun with them!

What’s NEW?

What’s NEW?

Have you stopped by the New Arrivals section lately in the Store? If you haven’t been there in the last HOUR, you wouldn’t know that there have been almost 40 NEW items added this weekend!  Check them out….

First, we added FUN digital items from LilyPink Designs & StripedElephants on Fresh Friday and a couple of freebies from ME:

This is my favorite from LilyPink – Halloween Scene Set:

From StripedElephants, I cannot WAIT to play with this paper pack – Strawberries & Cream:

You’ll probably like my new things, because they are FREE right now – Coffee Time Papers & a fun Chimney Paper:

But, that’s NOT all!  I have been a busy bee this morning adding LOTS of NEW non-digital goodies…

First of all, I’m SO happy to add the entire Studio Paint & Multi-Medium line from RangerInk in FUN 0.5-oz sizes.

We also have a NEW Dylusions Stencil to use with those fabulous paints, or whatever else you feel like – Luscious Leaves:

Next up is the FABULOUS new Christmas collection from Bo Bunny – Rejoice. We have the 6×6 paper pack, brads, die-cuts, and a FUN mini album:

If you aren’t ready to get into the Christmas spirit just yet, Authentique has a FUN new paper pack that will tide you over until the Holiday Spirit kicks in – Curiosity:

 If Fall is more your speed right now, how about this FUN new cling stamp – Fall Tendril:

 

The last 2 items that were added today are good ANY time of the year.  The first is a FUN new medium – Printable Shrink Plastic. Use the Print & Cut feature on your Silhouette to make STUNNING items insanely fast.  Print & Cuts for ALL of the images in the Store will be coming around October 1st, along with TWO other surprises!

And last, but certainly not least, is a new set of embossing folders with a Far Out Floral theme that can be used at any time:

 

VSN Fun

Last night, VSN  started over on SCS.  Did you play?  No worries if you didn’t, you still have time AND there are MORE challenges posting today.  Here are some quick and fun cards I made for a couple of challenges last night… {sorry about the photos – it was raining ALL day yesterday, and I could NOT get good light since I broke one of my light box lights *sad face*}

This first card uses some Coffee Time fun stuff:

The All is Bright paper pack did a LOT of hard work for the challenges for me.  I used Loopy4Digis’ Gingerbread Shack printed and cut out with the Silhouette for the focal image.  Print & Cuts for all of the CYDI? digis are coming soon!  The rest of the things in this card are from my old Stampin’ Up! stash.

This next card uses Loopy4Digis’ Penguin Dancing with two digi papers that I realized I never gave you – Coffee Time Papers & Through the Woods Chimney Paper, so they are FREE.

My last card again uses the All is Bright paper pack, as well as Silver Foil cut on my Silhouette to make the paper clip:

Hope you’ll play along to kick-start your creativity!
