Free stuff, free stuff... (a free template and a free digi-scrap kit)

Hello!
I have some freebies for you.

A free template AND a free full sized digi-scrap kit.
I was intending to only make a mini-kit, but I got a little carried away and ended up with quite a bit more than I thought I would.

First of all I want to thank those of you who left me such sweet comments the last time I had a free download to offer. Your kindness was so heart warming and very much appreciated! Those kinds of comments seriously offer freebie makers motivation to keep it up. Thanks again. Hugs!!

Okay, so here is the free template. It has two circles for your photos, hollow circles to clip papers to, a cute round scallop/flowerish shape matt, some stacked papers which will provide a lot of beautiful depth, there's also room for clustering cute elements, and attaching some fun ribbons. Here is what the template looks like.

It would look cute flipped around a little too.


If you think you could use it than click on the preview below to download from MediaFire.

I hope you have fun with it!
I did not make it with the PNG's, but if you want a PNG version than let me know because I can get one up here for you. Anyway, as all of us freebie-giving-scrap-bloggers say: please leave a comment if you download it. Your words really are encouraging. If you end up using the template please email me a peek of your layout or leave a gallery link. I would be overjoyed to see what you do with it.


Now, next up a fun free digital scrapbooking kit. I was totally inspired to make this kit when I saw Sarah Bennett's Commercial Use Buttons (click on image to get a better view at Sarah's store).

There are some cute buttons in there huh?
As soon as I saw all her amazing buttons I wanted to go make a digital-scrap button frame, and then ideas for a kit just kept flowing from my brain, until I had to sit down and make the kit in my head a reality. The kit is made with Sarah's CU buttons, as well as other buttons and fun things. Of course the name of the kit is Cute As A Button! The kit is made up of items you would find if you opened up the doors to your craft cupboard and peeked inside.

It has:
Ten papers (five textured solids, and five patterns)
a cute button frame stitched up with string (a landscape orientation one and a portrait orientation one).
about eleven cute buttons (some from Sarah's CU buttons!)
Three ribbons (two straight, one curly)
A couple of "blingy" flowers
A metal flower
A real leaf
Felt branch of leaves
A little folder
A mini note paper
A string tied in a bow
A puffy paint heart
A glitter spill
An upside down staple
Distressed, (repeating down the page) "cute as a button" word art
One funky alpha with upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers, and some symbols.



You have two download options. You can download the WHOLE kit in one click from media fire or you can download the kit in 5 SMALLER pieces from Media Fire. If you have a really fast internet connection (or time to kill while you wait for the download) than do the one click download, otherwise you will be waiting a long time for it to finish. However don't do both options or you will be downloading the kit twice.

If you want the entire kit in one download click... WHOLE KIT

OR

If you want to download it in five separate smaller downloads here you go...

I put in a lot of hours (a lot of fun hours of course) making these freebies (especially since I have been having slow computer issues- bleh), so a little comment from those of you snagging the downloads would really make my day! Please leave comments here on the blog since the Media Fire doesn't have a place for comments like 4Shared does. Also If you have time I would REALLY appreciate any feedback you have (positive or constructive criticism) regarding the digi products. Leave feedback in the comments section or even email me at AmyP185 [at] yahoo dot com.
I hope you like these freebies and can use them!

Sarah Bennett fans will be happy to know that she has another amazing NEW kit being released on Monday! Aren't I SO blessed to be on her creative team and get to scrap for her in return for free Sarah Bennett products?!

Have a great day (and then go scrap it)!
