New Product! And a Freebie!

Woo Hoo it is Friday!  Don't you just love Fridays?  I do!  Especially since I have a really cool new product to show you!

Introducing Engraved On My Heart Alpha

This is the coolest alpha!  It comes with upper and lower case alpha hearts with the look of real engraved letters on metal hearts.  It also comes with a complete metal alpha with upper case, lower case, numbers, and most symbols.  It also comes with three bonus hearts with words engraved on them, and one bonus blank heart that you can customize with any word in any font, or the blank heart can just be used as an element to complement the alpha.  This two in one alpha with bonus hearts is regularly priced at $3, but it is now on SALE for $1.75!  You can take a closer look at this alpha, and pick it up for sale in my shop HERE.


With so many cool options imagine the cool title work you can do with this alpha! 

Here are some example layouts

I have a FREEBIE for you!!
I promised you a freebie so here you go.  Here are six more engraved hearts free for you. These cute little heart, word art elements will go perfectly on your digital scrapbooking layouts.  Use them as an element or use them as part of your title work.  They would go great with the Engraved On My Heart Alpha!  :) 

I hope you like them!  If you want these little hearts than you can download them from 4shared by clicking right HERE. Don't forget to leave me a comment here on my blog if you plan on clicking the download button.  Your comments are inspiring, and I appreciate hearing from you!

On a personal note...

I've had some layouts featured lately!  It is so exciting when other people recognize your layouts and you get a little public recognition isn't it?  LOL!
I scrapped this photo of my boy (the little guy on the right) and his cousins walking to their auntie's wedding, and on the 14th it was featured on the Gallery Standout Blog.

I used Autumn Glory by Melissa Bennett for that layout

I just found out today that Funky Playground Designs featured my Snaapshots of today layout on their blog as a FPD Gallery standout.  I made this page for the My Lifetime Story challenge at Faith Sisters.  It is snapshots of a few things we've done this summer.  I don't often do a multi photo layout, so I'm glad people like it!

I used a super awesome kit for that page.  I used a kit called Friendship Part One.  It is a collab between the FPD designers and the designers at the DigiChick that can be picked up at FPD (Friendship Part 2 is over at TDC).

... and later tonight (hopefully), or maybe tomorrow, I am going to post a freebie I made for you as kind of a promotion of a little product I have coming out tomorrow (the 24th).

See you later!

A Freeibe and An Announcement

I'm back with that freebie I told you I wanted to hand out!  I'm so excited about becoming a designer and opening up my shop SOON that I wanted to celebrate with giving you a freebie!  I made a really great metal alpha for you, but I left it out in the rain!  You know how it is here in Oregon.  Autumn is on the way and so are the rains.  This poor alpha got all rusted. I thought that you could still use it so I am going to give it to you anyway. 
LOL ! 

I hope you enjoy the alpha freebie!

The rusted detail looks pretty good here, but it will look even better when you download it and open it up in your program.  It turned out pretty good, and I hope you like it.

Have you guessed my announcement?  Where I will be selling?  Did you see the logo on my packaging?  You guessed it!  I am so excited that I will be selling my digi-goods at GingerScraps!  I'm going to be a Gingerbread Lady- woo hoo!  GS is such a wonderful place. The community is sweet and fun, the designers are all talented and creative.  They are adding many new designers to their shop in the next few months so you'll have to check them out!  GingerScraps is a very welcoming place, so if you haven't visited yet you should give them a try! 

I hope you like the alpha, and I can't wait to tell you all about my store opening (there will probably be freebies and coupons involved-- if you've read my blog very long than you know how much I love giving out freebies hehe).

I sure would love it if you'd comment here on my blog if you grab the freebie!  I enjoyed making this for you and I would like to hear from you if you download ok? 
Thanks!!
