WhooHoo!!! I'm Early!!!

I actually knocked out the DSO Color Challenge early for a change! Jodiann has some super cool new Texture Washed styles coming out 10/05/10. I will add the link as soon as I get it so you can snag them for yourself. In the meantime you can check out the alpha and the blue frame to get a peek at what you can do with them. And, if you like the corrugated look of the green frame you just have to pick up Kim's Corrugated Paper Styles. What an easy way to get a super look! Have fun! Edit: Texture Wash Styles here!

At Long Last...

To all of my poor neglected readers, I apologize for going MIA. My life is pretty much a train wreck right now... work is absolutely crazy (as usual), Mr. MoJo has taken a hike, the relaxing vacation turned out to be not so relaxing, and well...you get the idea. More details to come later. I did take the time to play with some new styles from the fabulous Jodiann. This gal is amazing, she just keeps coming up with such super cool stuff! I used the Bold Summer Chalkies and the Halftone Styles for today's little gifty.

PDW May Color Challenge Mini-Kit

Thanks to all of ya'll for the well wishes, I am slowly but surely getting better, this morning my foot actually resembles a foot and not a football. I rigged up a lapdesk so I could work on my laptop while keeping my foot elevated, so that I could at least try and catch up with some of my scrapping stuff. This months swatch at Plain Digital Wrapper is kinda on the bright side. Well, okay, it's REALLY bright. Like NEON bright. Definitely out of my comfort zone, but hey, that's why it's called a challenge, right? Grab your sunglasses and enjoy! PS... I am such a doofus, I should've mentioned the fact that if you like that paper scrapped chalked look on your pages you need to snag Jodiann's awesome Chalkie's Styles. Of course I am most fond of the "Vicki's Beach Chalkies", (imagine that) but now this amazing fellow Texan who is also a PS style genius has come up with some more. Yep, check out Chalkies:Bold Summer, can we say absolutely fabulous?

No, I Didn't Fall In A Well...

One word to explain my absence...IRS. Well, actually, we can't blame it all on the IRS, I got the bright idea to change the software system for both of our tire stores in March. I have been working 60+ hours a week, which leaves no time for the fun stuff! Now that I am past the first week on the new system maybe I will have a little free time, believe me, it has been a wild ride! I did manage to get a new kit together, only because I had been working on it forever, lol! Are you feeling Beachy? I know I am! I proudly present "Just Beachy" I tried something different this go around, there are two different element packs, one with a paper scrapped look, (created with Vicki's Beach Chalkies from the fabulous JodiAnn)and one with realistic elements. If you buy both, you get the papers for FREE! Snap 'um up right here! Available exclusively at Plain Digital Wrapper. And...I have a little gifty for ya'll, let's go get Beachy! Password is: sand

Come Down My Garden Path

I have a new kit up in the store! I call it "Garden Path", and it's a little different from my usual, it was created to give your LO a hand cut paper pieced look. It includes 12 textured papers and 47 elements, not everthing is shown in the preview. Available exclusively at Plain Digital Wrapper. I ended up with a few extra papers, and then yesterday Jodiann sent me a surprise! I had searched high and low for a style to give a chalked type edge, and I had asked her if it was possible, 'cause she is a whiz with styles. Lo and behold, she sent me these fabulous styles with such a terrific name, Chalkies:Vicki's Beach. Does she know me or what, lol! I started playing around with them last night and had a blast!These are the smooth styles, she is working on a textured set, but it's easy to add a little texture after you apply the style. I just love the soft chalked edge these styles give, pick 'em up for yourself this Friday and see what I mean. And...I made a few new things with them to go with the leftover papers so ya'll can have a little gifty. Enjoy! I will have a drawing on Friday from all comments left here on the blog to win "Garden Path", so leave me a note!
