I'm really happy...

...that so many of you have left me such nice comments about Bugs in My Garden, both here and at Dropbox!  It really makes me feel like what I'm doing is worth the effort and the physical pain I feel when I'm sitting at the computer designing.  I'm just so glad you like this kit because I truly enjoyed making it.  Patti from The Flight Crew just keeps on scrapping her garden club pictures and home garden pictures with the kit!  Here's a couple new layouts:

In the second one, she put in all the pink flowers in the picture and the bench from the kit.  She just has the perfect pictures to scrap with this one!  Thanks Patti!

I'm busy working on September's Pixel Scrapper blog train kit already!  I just love the theme (Bohemian Breeze) and the colors are fab.  Usually I work on my own kit first each month and then on the blog train kit later in the month.  I'm thinking of doing a Victorian Children's Kit this month, maybe school-related, but haven't decided for sure.

Here's the color scheme of the blog train kit for September and a preview of my first two papers:

Don't forget you can click on the pictures to get a larger view.  I'd love to know what you think of them.  I haven't textured them or anything yet, just made the patterns using layered templates from KimB's CU Patterns & Prints Damask #9 kit.  She has long been my favorite designer and I was so happy to find that she was still at it when I started designing again this year!  So many others I really liked have quit or retired.   

I am going to be re-releasing another older kit, probably over the weekend or beginning of next week.  It's called Floral Beauty and is made from photographs I took of flowers.   I thought it would be a good time to do it since flowers are in full bloom now!  Make sure you check back!

Hope you're having a great week and are well!

Thought you all might like to see some elements and papers as a preview of "Steampunk Gears-Up."  It's a bit over 1 GB full of metal, grunge, clocks, gears, etc.  All the stuff you'd expect in a steampunk kit, plus some you might not!  Don't forget you may click on the images to get a closer look.

Here's the color theme:

There are 11 page alphas!  Three colors of this grungy metal, and a shiny metallic one in all eight colors!

Here's a border made of gear elements; there are also gold and silver metal borders, and these gears in all eight colors!

These are great CU dolls and posers made by Karen's Scraps and Graphics.  I've recolored some of them.  There are four dolls, three female characters, and three of the fairies.  There are also other characters besides the three styles made by KSG.

There's an abundance of clocks, gears, clusters and other fun elements.  Of course, I had to make some with wings!

And here are samples of three different papers.  There's a total of 45 papers!

Well, I hope this gets you excited for steampunk!  Check back the end of the week to grab all the goodies!

Re-Release of Victorian Mother's Day Freebie

Hope every is doing well.  I'm feeling a bit better and a little stronger.  Yay!  My niece, Denise,  brought my two great-nieces and great-nephew over Saturday, as well as my new little great nephew who was born late last fall.  He is my niece, Leilani's, first child.  Such a cute and GOOD baby!  I gave them their Easter baskets (yeah, late I know!).  We then baked cookies for over three hours...cut-outs, peanut butter and orange.  They couldn't get over that I made my own icing and had never seen anyone make it before!  Go figure.  We had a ball but boy did it wear me out.  LOL  Now they want to come back and make cupcakes!  Here are a couple pictures:

Are you ready for another old kit to be re-released?  Today I have for you my Victorian Mother's Day freebie kit.  It's another big one!
