All that glitters...

...is on SALE! From now until the end of September, all of my glitter packs, INCLUDING custom glitter, are 50% off! That prices some of them as low as 75 cents! If you've ever wanted to try out my glitter, now's the time! Here's my store!

And I have something even more exciting to show you -- a new kit is in store today!! It's called Doodlebug, and I looooove it. It's full of some of my favorite colors, nice warm-toned metal, and elements that work well for either girls OR boys! And it's on sale 20% off for one week! Click on the preview to head to my store!



The kit comes with two awesome alphas, which will be available separately at some point in the near future:



I didn't give my CT members much warning on this one, so I'll come back on Monday with their amazing LOs. Until then, a little bird told me you *might* have a chance to win this kit for free, over at goDigitalScrapbooking.com. ;)

If you'd like a small sample of what's in Doodlebug, I'm handing out this awesome sampler as a participation prize for my current Progressive Layout Challenge over at GDS! Follow the steps, post your LO, and you'll get the sampler -- it's that easy! :)

Here's what the sampler looks like:


This time, we're working with white space. Here's the LO I did for the challenge:

CUSTOM GLITTER!!

Guess what? Finally, finally, I have the chance to offer a service I've been dying to offer since April! Custom glitter anyone??

I am now available to sell custom glitter styles and sheets at goDigitalScrapbooking.com! I'm so excited! I sell 6-packs and 12-packs to fit any size palette. (There's something odd with the previews in-store at the moment, but that will be fixed soon!) If yours has an odd number, I'll happily fill in the extras with coordinating shades of the same colors for variety. :) Plus if you're REALLY nice, you might get a little bonus gradient glitter sheet in YOUR colors! Check it out! You'll notice that all of my alphas are now available separately in-store as well.

I've got another Progressive Challenge starting up tomorrow, so come and join me at GDS! :D

This is my favorite alpha ever, so be sure to hunt it down! (Hint: Have you checked out my Progressive Layout Challenge yet?) I'm going to cheat and show you what it looks like:

More GDS news and sneak peeks!

So I have another bit of news today. A couple, actually. Do you all like freebies? This is a big week for them! First of all, if you didn't catch yesterday's alpha and QP, be sure to scroll down and snag 'em! Second, today I am featured in the Daily Download at goDigitalScrapbooking.com! This month is GDS's birthday, so all of the Daily DL's will coordinate with the Just One Year designer collab bits and pieces in the store. If you collect all of the dailies, you'll have a pretty good coordinating stash to go with the pieces you can buy from the store! My first Daily Download freebie EVER is...

a glitter pack!


In the future, I will be able to offer glitter as a Designer Service at GDS, so this is a great way to preview my glitter and see if you like how I make it! :) Head over to the Daily Download Forum @ GDS to grab yourself a copy -- but be quick, because it's only free for a day before it goes up in the store! You will have to be a member of GDS to see the forum.

While you're over at GDS grabbing THAT freebie, why don't you check out their challenges? I get to host the newly-improved Progressive Layout challenge! If you scrap along with me for a week, following my steps (think speed scrap in slow motion), you can win an awesome mini-kit when the challenge is over -- just for creating a layout! This challenge will run every 2 weeks, and it's just one of many awesome challenges at GDS! Check it out here!

Another item of interest -- As you know, I'm going to be collab'ing with Val (geniaBeana) on a regular basis. Our first collab is ready to go!! It's called Hoo's My Boy, and it's awesome! The best part? We're giving away two FREE copies - one at DigiScrapAddicts (hosted by Super Spy Zeee) and one at DigiShopTalk (hosted by Super Spy AZK). You can post in both threads for two chances to win! Here's a sneak peek:


That's all for today -- but later this week, GDS's birthday bash will really be kicking off, and there will be yet another freebie from me through the Scavenger Hunt! So come on over and hang out with us!

New Release, BIG NEWS, and a BLOG PARTY!

Happy Tuesday, everyone!!

Guess what?? ..No, you don't have to guess, I'll tell you! I am opening a NEW store over at goDigitalScrapbooking.com! And why, you ask? That's the second piece of big news!! (Edited to add: My store at GDS is still empty, but please check back later! I understand new things will be added throughout the day.)

Since I began scrapping, I've been scrapping, designing, and bouncing ideas around with Val, aka geniaBeana. When we opened stores (around the same time), we joined each others' CTs. But we weren't able to get in at the same store at that point. Recently the opportunity presented itself to join GDS, and hence to be able to collab together in the same store, and we jumped at the chance! This week both of us are opening at GDS, and everything in both stores is 35% off! That includes this marvelous new kit, created purely for the celebration, Girls' Night Out!

Here's what our awesome CT has done with GNO -- click the small previews to see a larger version in a new window:



And Val has created this awesome kit using complimentary colors -- It's A Party!

Here's my LO with It's a Party -- available below in QP form! You can find Val's store here (but again, not much is up yet -- keep checking!)


But that's not all -- since Val and I both come from the same original forum (BAM - remember those blog trains a while back?), we had a lot of ladies we both knew, that were on both of our CTs. So we decided, when we moved, that we would also merge our CTs! We now have one, combined CT. Together, Val and I are KgB Scrap Kreations -- and our CT gals are The KgB. You'll see them around the digiworld, posting RAK threads for us, advertising this blog train, and otherwise fulfilling their secret spy missions for us. ;) (Pun note: the KGB is like the Russion version of the CIA or MI:6, so when we decided to call our CT the KgB, they wanted to be spies! *lol*)

SO! Today, we have a whole BLOG PARTY of freebies for you! The KgB has come together with both of our new kits to create freebies for you! There are quickpages, wordart, and even a free alpha! Speaking of which...

Girls' Night Out Alpha
**this freebie will be available as long as my Grand Opening sale continues -- until September 7th! grab it while you can!**
This alpha is made of glass, black glitter, and deliciously shiny chrome. It's made with the font Cafe Rojo, by Kevin and Amanda, and includes a full alphabet (upper/lower mixed, as per the font), numbers 0-9, and some common punctuation. It coordinates perfectly with both Girls' Night Out by me and It's A Party by geniaBeana. :) If you miss the download, it is also packaged together with GNO and will be released separately in the shop as well.

Link expired -- check out my store!


I've also created a quickpage for you, using "It's A Party" and Val's awesome coordinating plastic styles!

Click on the preview to download!


From here, you'll want to head on over to Val's blog to get the blog train rolling! Don't forget to leave some love for our CT gals, some of them are first-timers at this blogtrain stuff!
(Keep in mind we are all on different timezones, so if anyone's post isn't up yet, be sure to check back later.)
