You want what? ANOTHER freebie?

Alright...you got it! I have the honor of being one of the girls to get my hands on the gorgeous collab Bubblicious by mgl Scraps and Ellie Lash. You can find this kit starting today at Scrapbook Graphics. Because Ellie Lash is one of the newest designers at SBG! And to show you how gorgeous this kit is several of Monica and Ellies CT members got together and made QPs for you. After you download mine just head on over to visit Debbie's blog "Musings of a Scattered Scrapper" and grab the next beautiful QP!

Wanna see the kit first?


Here is my QP (image is clickable), I hope you like it :) I left you plenty of room for a title too.


And here is what it looks like with a photo...

Enter If You Dare....Mwahahaha.....

It's freebie time again!!! And Sunshine Studio Scraps designers have teamed up with several of Scrap Orchards designers to create a fun and safe Trick or Treat neighborhood for you. And unlike that other trick or treating you can stay nice and toasty in your own home :)

So step right up and knock on my door. And when you are done please visit my neighbor Allie at Lliella Designs blog and see what kind of candy she has for you! Just don't forget...the designers are from all over the world and if a link isn't up then it will be soon. These links will be up for a long time so don't worry about missing out on any of the goodies we have planned for you :)

Oh, and one last thing before you go. I just heard about a FANTASTIC sale coming up and I just HAD to tell you about it. I'm sure that if you had visited my blog before then you realize how I love the designs by Monica at mgl Scraps. Well, check this out!!

A freebie in case you missed it.

Last month during the daily download the Wonder Girls gave away an awesome kit they made called the Missing Bits and pieces of Yesterday. If you missed it you are in luck. We are all giving away our parts all over again. Just visit all the Wonder Girls blogs and you can have all the pieces. But please remember that Sunshine Wonder Week kicks off tomorrow! So come back to the SUN forums and join in all the great challenges and games. And a special reminder that we have Speed Scraps on Monday at 3 EST and Thursday at 10 pm EST (scroll down to the previous post for more info and to see the participation prize).

So, here is a reminder of the Sunshine Wonder Week Schedule and then you can have your freebie.

This means that the SUN designers have seen potential in me and are willing to teach me and help me grow and shine as a designer. I am incredibly excited to be working with so many of my favorite designers! And there are many more new designers for you to get to know.

All your favorite SUN designers and all of the new designers ... 24 designers in total all joined together to make you one fabulous kit!

If you want to see more with this great kit then just visit this gallery. And while you are there feel free to leave the ladies some love :)

Alright, alright...is this what you were waiting for?

After a particularly funny conversation at Hummie's we decided that the June Design Challenge should be based on various toiletry themes. And since I am one of those Mommies that takes pictures of everything I have several potty training pictures to scrap. (Don't worry...I'm not THAT mean...nothing "important" shows *L*) So I decided to do a potty training kit. I also did a more traditional kit with the color palette as well. And since the original theme was toiletries and the colors reminded me of the odd color combinations and patterns in my own Grandmothers bathroom that somehow manage to work together, I named it Grandma's Bathroom *L*

So, here are your two freebie mini kits...

Sunshine Wonder Week and a Freebie

Are you as excited about Sunshine Wonder Week as we Wonder Girls are? I sure hope so. We have been hard at work trying to make sure you have fun stuff to do and lots of goodies to win. In fact, my fellow Wonder Girl Jen and I were so hard at work that we went a little too far when we made the papers for The Missing Bit's 'n Pieces of Yesterday. And rather than see them go to waste we decided that our mistake is your gain! You will find my extra papers here and then please head over to Jen's blog to download hers too. Enjoy your freebie :)

Download Here

There is so much more in store for you during Sunshine Wonder Week which starts Sunday. Make sure to visit the Sunshine Studio Blog and you may find a lot more pieces like this! And please don't forget to visit Jen's blog to get the other two great papers that never made it into The Missing Bit's 'n Pieces of Yesterday.

And one last thing for today. I wanted to show you the adorable signatures that Wonder Girl Ale and her husband made for all of us Wonder Girls. Thanks again, Ale!

Want some CU Grunge Brushes?

One of the many wonderful things about Hummie at Hummie's World is that all you have to do is ask, actually sometimes you don't even need to ask...just mention it in passing *L*, and she is right there to teach you something new! I mentioned having to find new grunge brushes since I was bored and unhappy with what I have. And next thing you know Hummie is teaching me how to do it myself. Check out the tutorial thread here.

But in the meantime, I'd like to share with you a few of the ones I had fun making this morning. And you can feel free to use them for commercial needs too :) There is even a frame that I played around and made to see if the brushes were "usable"and I threw it in the download for you to enjoy.

Did you make it?

The NSD chat at Hummie's World with ACDSee was lots of fun tonight...did you make it? Lots of freebies were handed out including two people winning full-versions of ACDSee, a subscription to Hummie's wonderful tutorial area, an alpha by Hummie and a unique and wonderful Mother book template by Lori. Oh, yeah ... and this little tidbit by me :) If you missed the chat you can still grab it here .... but just know that you missed out on some great laughs watching tons of girls scramble to win the software.

So here is Lynn's Watermelon Picnic. I named it that because it started out with me just playing around with some watermelon elements and my daughter decided to show some interest. The ants and the picnic "blanket"are all her idea and I was so glad to share the time with her while we worked on it together that what choice did I have but to name it after her?

A few Soggy Spring layouts and then it's Alpha Time!

I finally got a chance to do a few layouts with all the great kits that came from Hummie's April Designer Color Palette Challenge. There is so much great stuff over there and it is such a wonderful and supportive environment. I strongly encourage you to check out Hummie's World if you haven't already. The April Challenge is LOADED with fantastic kits that are yours for the taking. They are all based on the same color palette and you might even think of it as one huge collaborative mega kit. You can now find links to all the kits on the first page of the thread, however for the previews you would need to go through the posts or the gallery. Yes, there are a lot of pages but you may just find yourself quite amused at our silly antics :)

This one uses a background and stickers from Julie's kit and her add on doodles.
I also used the grass element from Hummie's.


These two were both done with my own kit.
For the second layout I used a template from "Templates by Erica"
Do you like that Alpha on the second one? I hope so...
Because it's yours if you want it :)

Here you go...my next freebie ...

SORRY DOWNLOAD EXPIRED
And if you didn't get it before ... here is the link for my free Soggy Spring kit.

It's finally done...please enjoy!

Remember when I mentioned that I hadn't been blogging for a good reason? Well, here it is. At Hummie's World there is a monthly Designer Color Palette Challenge. This month I decided to try my hand at designing a kit for the very first time. I loved the colors that Hummie chose and I had such a fun time. I actually think it came out very good, especially seeing as I had never even made a paper before *L* I worked hard on it and I am very proud of it. So I hope that you can take what I have made and use it for your own projects.

Without further ado .... (HeHe ... just had to, sorry!)

Here is my first ever freebie for you. Please Enjoy. There are two separate downloads for you. I would love to see what you make with it so please send links :) Happy Scrapping!

SORRY DOWNLOAD EXPIRED

I hope to make a few more traditional frames and an alpha as add-ons, so check back later to see if there is more for you :)

Oh, and by the way ...

You can also pick up my friend Miss Chris' similar kit on her blog. Feel free to stop by and give her some support too! It was her first time too : ) Thanks

And our wonderfully talented and always amusing Julie has also made a kit with the same color palette. Please check it out here.
