Here's a little early Valentine's Day Present for you. It's a little banner I made last year, but I updated it and made the letters into heart shapes . . . so much cuter right?  All you have to do is download the pdf file, print them out - I recommend card stock - cut the heart shapes out and hang them up! So simple and easy to do!  The pdf file has a total of 3 8-1/2" x 11" pages that you will need to print.  To hang them, you can punch holes in them and thread them onto a ribbon or string. You can clip them to a ribbon ( I used clothespins for mine - but paperclips would work too!) or you could even just tape them up!  There's plenty of possibilities for Valentine decorating!  You could hang them in your office cubicle, across your honey's mirror, above your kids bed, or even string a set of lights up and clip the hearts to the lights for even more romance!

Click on the image below to download the file and remember, however you use them - have fun - and I hope you have a lovely Saint Valentine's Day!

Sugar Moon has a new kit out for Halloween! Yes, I know that probably comes as a shock! I've tried to include many of my favorite things about Halloween, but I also tried to keep it mysterious and classic so you could use it to make it your own.  It has lots of fun stuff inside - 26 papers, over 50 elements  and one alpha. You could use this for scrapbooks, making Halloween Decorations, Halloween Invitations, or even party favors! What ever your little black heart desires!

AND as a special little gift I've made a lovely little frame cluster for you - it goes with the kit AND it features a bust of Edgar Allen Poe - perfect for a lovely keepsake of your nearest and dearest! Just click on the image below to download this frame.  If you are interested in getting the kit for yourself - and who wouldn't be! I mean LOOK at it - it's awesome!! Just head on over to Sugar Moon Designs at Designs in Digital and pick it up! It's on sale this weekend - 30% off!

Hurray! It's October 1st and this is my Third Annual Halloween Countdown! I'm hoping it's going to be a lot of fun for everyone! I have several great gifts for you this month, plus all my usual orange and black tinged ramblings!

To kick this awesome month off I've created a fun FREE DOWN LOADABLE Halloween Party Pack for  you! Just click on this image to download a zip file that contains all the high res PDFs that you need to print off for your own Halloween Party.

This pack contains a fun Halloween invitation. I've made one that can be printed front and back, and folded in half, and one design that is singled sided.

There's also cupcake toppers - glue back to back on toothpicks or popcicle sticks and insert them into cupcakes. You can also punch two holes in them and thread them through straws for a fun drink decoration.

The party pack also comes with goody bag toppers! Print these, cut them out, fold them in half and staple or glue them to paper sacks or plastic baggies full of party favors or candy! Your guests will be delighted with these!

Don't forget - there are past year's designs still available if you would like something a bit different! Just click HERE to see the old invitations, and click HERE and HERE for past treat bag toppers.

UPDATE: Here's a great idea for how to use the cupcake toppers, over at JaeBellz

So much for that posting everyday idea I had! Don't worry I'll be back into the swing before October comes! I'm in training right now - pumping up my typing fingers and doing reps with the mouse clicker thingy . . . whew . . . gotta take a sip of gatorade . . . okay, here we go!

Today, I have a little FREEBIE for you! Whoo HOO!  It was created by a member of the Designs in Digital Creative Team, Tammy.

As you may have heard there was a lot of trouble recently with a host provider in the digital scrapbook world. Designs In Digital and therefore Sugar Moon Designs was down for several day so if you tried to use the links I provided, they went nowhere! To try to help you out, Designs In Digital is offering a great coupon to welcome back our site and I want to share it with you. Hopefully this will make up for the recent frustration! Now get on over there and load up on supplies! YAY!  Also, I'm leaving up my post and link so you can still download the free quickpage at the end of the post. Thanks!

Since summer is right around the corner I got inspired to make a digital scrapbooking kit based on the theme of  summer camp.  It works great for all those photos of picnics, marshmallow roasts, fishing, campouts and even SUMMER CAMP! Here's a preview of the entire kit. It contains 13, 12x12" papers, 300 dpi and has over 30 elements for all your summer photo needs! It's available at Designs In Digitial - my store has just opened and this is the first kit I'm offering - go... okay finish reading this then go!

It's pretty isn't it? I think it turned out really well - here are some layouts I've done with it so you can get a feel for the kit.

So much fun!!!  And now a little something for you to add on to this kit . . . a free frame and quickpage.  You can see on the layout the quickpage - and I've also included the frame separate so you can use it on a different paper if you like.

Click on the preview image to download the frame and quickpage   Okay, now get on over to Designs In Digital and get the rest of the kit!!!

Here is my new kit for the Designs in Digital Contest. This week we were asked to create a "masculine" kit. My inspiration was Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack. This was the palette I chose to work from

Here is a preview of the kit. It contains 6 12x12" papers, (three patterned and three solids), one complete alpha set, and 12 scrapbook elements. You can download the mini-kit, as well as other designers kits from the Designs In Digital website. Click on the preview to go to the download page.

Here is a layout I did with the kit. I used a photo of David on our wedding day because he really looks the part in his zoot suit! I hope you can find something fun to do with the kit!

Wow. I am so ready for spring, how about you? Here in the midwest it's hard not to get spring fever around this time, but the weather is so unpredictable. As soon as you're counting on winter being over, here comes a last blast to ruin all your plans!

This sunday I'm having a spring brunch for my family. I wanted to do it before Easter because everyone has plans and it doesn't always work out that we can get together, but this weekend I think everyone can make it and I hope it turns out to be fun and cheerful!  For part of my decorations I made bird silhouettes on decorative paper and just clothes pinned them to a piece of twine strung across the dining room. What could be simpler? I wanted to give the impression of spring birds perched on the clothes line - I can't wait for all the little birds to come back for the season! I have just begun seeing robins in the neighborhood so I know spring will soon be here in full force!

I made a copy of the birds for you, just in case you need to add some spring cheer to your house.  Just click on the link and download the pdf. I would recommend printing them on cardstock. You can clip them, or glue them, or punch a hole in them and string them up - or hey, even make them into a mobile! Whatever makes you happy!
