DST October Blog Train Time!

It’s time for the DST October Blog Train to leave the station, and hopefully you’ll find some amazing goodies to download during your ride.

You should have gotten here via Mad Genius Designs, and your next stop on the train should be MagsGraphics.  However, if these links are not correct, or if you get lost along the way, you should be able to find a full list of this month’s participants here:  The Blog Train Blog.

I decided to go a bit low key with this train.  Since there was no theme this month, I wanted to try and do something that would fit best with a larger variety of the other portions.  So, I offer you my portion – Purple Polka Alpha:

I liked the polka dot look of the alpha so much, I decided to make a matching plain and polka dot paper pack using all of the colors of the train.  To download it, visit my Facebook Fan Page here (if you don’t ‘like’ me yet, you’ll have to do so before you can download):

New Releases & Monthly Challenge

In honor of this month’s October Addicts club at Brownie Scraps (which I am super excited to be hosting with Wendy of WendyBird Designs), I have two new releases for you today:  the Super Spooky Mega Kit

and the Super Spooky Bytes Add-On

You can pick up both kits for an incredibly low sale price this month ($4 and $2, respectively), or you can pick up an Addicts Club membership for October (for only $10) that allows you to pick up both of those kits for free, plus another exclusive full size kit (previewed below) – as well as all of Wendy’s wonderful hybrid goodies – plus freebies and coupons all month long!

I’m hosting the October Indulgence Challenge at Brownie Scraps.  The challenge is simple – I provide you with a free mini kit and you create a layout using every paper/element in the mini kit.  Pretty simple, right?  Be sure to check the challenge out here:  October Indulgence Challenge at Brownie Scraps

Bake Sale Time @ Brownie Scraps!

It’s Bake Sale time at Brownie Scraps!  That means there’s a beautiful new set of goodies in the store at amazingly low prices!  And once the bake sale’s over, these goodies will no longer be available for purchase, so be sure to stock up now!

I’ve got two new products for this year’s bake sale!  First up is a Stitched Denim Alpha, versatile enough to use on any type of layout with any time of kit!  And even better?  It’s only $1!  Can’t be that!  Alpha includes uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers and some punctuation:

Also new from me for this year’s Bake Sale is a sewing inspired kit, Sew Much Love.  Now, I personally can’t sew a button back onto a pair of pants without tons of help – but I greatly admire those who can take beautiful rolls of fabric and turn them into gorgeous creations!  I keep saying I’d love to learn to sew (and knit and crochet, and…well, tons of other things, too, lol), but I haven’t gotten there yet.  Maybe Sew Much Love is just the inspiration I need to learn to sew something – just so I can take pictures and scrap that memory!  🙂

Be sure to click here to visit the Brownie Scraps store and see the other 20+ new items for this year’s bake sale.

The sale ends September 30th, so don’t delay!

Friday Freebies!

It’s been far too long since I posted here, I know.  It may look like I’m a total slacker, but I promise you that’s not the case!  🙂  Not only have I been working hard recuperating from my back surgery, but I’ve been hard at work finishing up a huge (and gorgeous!) new kit!  I’m super excited for Arianna’s Sneak Peek this week and then the opportunity to show you the wonderful new kit next week.

But first, I’ve got two gorgeous freebies to share as one last nod to the gorgeous collab kit I did with Sanko Studios.

Both gorgeous freebies were created by my incredibly talented CT Member, Pat.  Aren’t they gorgeous!  🙂

Haven’t picked up your copy of the collab yet?  You can click here to snag it now!  🙂

Be sure to scroll all the way down and click both download links.  Enjoy!  🙂

Layout Spotlight!

Good Morning, Everyone! Crystal here to bring you the layout spotlight of the week!

I love looking through the galleries for awesome layouts to spotlight, and this past week was no different. I found lots of awesome layouts.

I chose Every Day Blessings by Natalee.  Feel free to go and leave her some love on her wonderful layout.

I absolutely love the wonderful journaling. She captured such a wonderful memory. I also love her clustering.

Do you like this kit? Do you have some great photos to scrap that would look awesome with this kit? Then head on over to Scrapable or Brownie Scraps  to pick up the kit. While you’re there browse the shop and see what else Blue Heart Scraps has to offer.

Don’t forget to upload your layouts to the Blue Hearts Scraps galleries and your layout could be spotlighted next.
