All freebie links will be available to you through at least October 8.

That's not all! To make this even bigger and better, our designers have created a stunning coordinating Collab Collection! It will be FREE with a $15 purchase (in a single order) through this DSD weekend only.

iNSD 2018 “After Party” Specials

There are always lots of sales and scrapbooking events during the iNSD weekend ~ several of the designers at theStudio have put together some “after party” specials that will run from Tuesday, May 8, through Sunday, May 13. I have put all of my recipe card starter kit bundles (2010-2017) on sale for $5.00 each. This reflects a savings over the full price from 58% off all the way up to 80% off, depending on the year.

You can find them in my store.

Advent Calendar Mini Kit

Here's a preview of my mini kit created for theStudio's annual advent calendar. If you're interested, you can get it today and tomorrow for free. You can find it in my store. 

My Grown-Up Christmas List

It’s time for theStudio’s annual Christmas Carol blog train! I’m always excited to see what my fellow designers choose for their song and how they represent it in their kit. Links to their blogs are below my preview.
My inspiration came from one of my favorite Christmas songs. I first heard Amy Grant sing this, and I love her version. I also like this video from Kelly Clarkson because it includes the words so I can sing along.

This song is even more meaningful to me as I reflect back on 2017 and all the heartache and chaos many have experienced: from politics to natural disasters, to the increase in hate and violence here and abroad, to the loss of loved ones and the loneliness or suffering of others. The chorus to this song captures my positive, grown-up year-round list perfectly: “No more lives torn apart, that wars would never start, and time would heal all hearts. And everyone would have a friend, and right would always win, and love would never end. This is my grown-up Christmas list.”

My kit is intentionally not specific or literal to the words in the song, but I hope can be used to capture and record your memories beautifully. If interested, you can download my mini kit here (freebie link removed 1-5-2018). 

NOTE: there are people from many different time zones, so be sure to check back if someone’s post isn’t up yet. These kits will be available as freebies for a limited time only. If you have any problems with the links or this table format, let me know. Enjoy!

Flash Sales ~ Monday, May 8

Today is the last day for the “flash sales” at theStudio. Here are my final 3 kits that are available today only for $1.00 each; you can find them in my store.

Thanks to those of you who purchased even one thing from me this weekend ~ I truly appreciate all your support! I would love to see anything you create with my designs. I really need to get going with a Creative Team again; this would be a good chance to try out the kits you bought and share your layouts with me!

Happy scrapping!

Flash Sales ~ Sunday, May 7

Another day ~ another “flash sales” opportunity! There are some wonderful deals available at theStudio today only for $1.00 each ~ here are the 3 kits I am featuring in my store. “Family Ties” is a newly updated full-size kit along with some coordinating packs, including at least one more I haven’t quite finished up. It also coordinates with this month’s recipe card challenge, which I’ll post about separately.

Wishing you a blessed and beautiful Sunday!

Flash Sales ~ Saturday, May 6

This weekend is always one of my favorite each year – so many great deals to spark my creativity and replenish my scrapbooking supplies. Saturday is National Scrapbooking Day!

Most items in my store at theStudio will be 50% this weekend, but I’m also offering 3 full-size kits on Saturday only for $1.00 each. Here’s my ad ~ you can click on it to go directly to my store and find these beauties. They really are 3 of my favorites!

Revenge of the Fifth Sale

More great sales today at theStudio! I’ve bundled up 5 of my recipe card starter kit bundles that will be on sale for TODAY ONLY for $20, a savings of $88.54 over the regular full price of all these kits. If you’re interested, you can find that bundle HERE. It won’t be listed in my store directly, but this link will take you right to it.

I hope you’ll check back over the weekend for some great prices on some of my kits that will be featured in flash sales for $1.00 each. National Scrapbooking Day is something I look forward to every year to find some new digital scrapbooking supplies and ideas. Take care, everyone!

May the Fourth Be With You

TheStudio is celebrating "May the Fourth be with you" with some GREAT deals. I have a pack that includes these 4 coordinating kits for $4.00 TODAY ONLY, making each kit $1.00 each, a 75% savings. You can find them HERE. I’ve also included the individual previews below for a better view of what’s included in each kit.

Recipe Card Kits ~ 2016: Bundle

I finally got around to adding all my 2016 recipe card starter kits for a challenge I host at theStudio in a bundle deal to save you money. This is available now in my store for $9.49, a 47% savings over buying each of them individually. This includes some of my favorite kits we’ve used in the challenges ~ some great recipes made their way onto cards made with these papers and elements!

Fun Scrapbooking Ideas

I see this link the other day on Facebook and thought it had a lot of fun and creative ideas that could be used for either hardcopy or digital scrapbooking. I decided to post it here so I’d have it when I want to look at it ~ and maybe some of you will be interested, too!  https://diyprojects.com/scrapbook-ideas/

This is the picture I saw that made me want to look ~ such a cute and simple card to make with all my scrapbook paper scraps!

In My Pretty Garden

Planting, weeding, and tending my flower gardens relieves my stress and gives me time to relax and temporarily leave the worries of the world behind. This collection was designed to showcase my love of gardening, playing in the dirt, and enjoying nature and God’s creations ~ especially in the spring when the earth is renewed and new life blooms.

All 7 packs are on sale for $1.00 each through Thursday, April 28. You can find them in my store. Be sure to look below the previews for information about some coordinating freebies.

And here’s a preview of some fun coordinating papers – 5 available as freebies on my blog, and 5 on my Facebook page. You can download the blog freebies here.

Recipe Card Challenge ~ April 2017

The starter kit for this month’s recipe card challenge at theStudio is in my store. This will be a freebie for those who participated the month before; others can purchase it for a low price. Reminder: The papers in this mini kit are sized 4 x 6, and the elements are smaller to fit the paper size. These are just the right size to create brag book pages, too!

The focus for April’s cards is any recipe that includes eggs or are things you may like to make any time of the year, but specifically at Easter. There are already some great cards posted in the forum! If you’d like the complete set of recipes at the end of the month, just use this kit and prepare/share at least one card ~ read all the details HERE. You can check the cards in the recipe card challenge gallery.

This month’s kit coordinates with my new “In My Pretty Garden” collection, which is available now at theStudio for $1.00 per pack for a limited time. I’ll post more information about that later. You can use any items from those packs for your cards this month as well. 

NOTE: This will also be available in My Memories store.

3 for $2 Sale

I have 3 of my recent kits on sale for a limited time only for $2.00 each. And if you look around in my store at theStudio, you may just find an additional kit for the same price! Many of the other designers have also listed items for $2.00 – it’s a good time to save some money and pick up some great additions to your scrapbooking stash. Here are the 3 “official” kits I have for $2.00 each.
