Dustin Pike Release...

Hello everyone! Today is supposed to be release day at Dustin Pike's. I'll show you the samples I have done up anyway. Dustin told us that his site is hosting malicious software, so he doesn't want to add any new art for sale until he gets it fixed. Be sure to keep checking back for the cuties though! :O)

Dustin Pike FREEBIE!

OK everyone...here is the post where I tell you it's FREEBIE day at Dustin Pike's! We're continuing all month with the Christmas in July theme. Here's one for all you dragon lovers!
Be sure to get over to his blog and pick up your copy of this cutie and color away! :O) Have a wonderful night!

Flutter By Wednesday #68!

Hello all and Happy Hump Day! Today is time for Flutter By Wednesday at Danni's Dreams! This week your challenge is to use absolutely NO designer or patterned paper on your project...of course you MUST use a butterfly or faerie. This is a hard challenge for me...I love my DP! I made a mini pizza box that I plan to give to my DD, Ariel with some lip glosses inside. :O)
I thought all of you would especially love this digi stamp...it's a digi called Pretty Pixie that will be released this Saturday at Sassy Studio Designs Masquerade Ball! We're having a huge party, so be sure to stop by!

I hope you enjoy my project this week! Be sure to check out the rest of the design team's creations! Ann, Cassie, Chris, Christine, Danni, Harriet, Heather, Jodi, Kim, Michelle, Nancy, Nicola, Stef & Taylor.

Here Ye! Here Ye!

You are all cordially invited to....................

Dustin Pike Release & a REALLY Great Deal!!!

Hi all. It's release day at Dustin Pike's, in case you forgot! ;O) Be sure to head over there...he has Christmas in July going on with 10 snowmen and 5 dragons, all for $10! Isn't that a good deal??? Yes, it is, but that's not the GREAT deal I was talking about...be sure to scroll down and I'll tell ya! Here are some samples with some of the snowmen.

OK...I thought when I started coloring this that it was a gingerbread man. NO, I didn't register the carrot nose until I had colored him in completely! Sheesh! One of my fellow DT members said he soaked up the hot chocolate. That's what I meant to do the whole time! That's my story and I'm sticking to it! LOL!!!

Now, in Dustin's own words...................................

"NOW ONTO THE DEAL OF THE CENTURY.... well at least for the next few months. Each year I have a sale so HUGE I can only do it once or twice a year.... Well this is the week. From now til Midnight this Sunday 07-12-09 I am selling all of my digi's that I have created so far including the 15 I put up today for the amazingly low price of $25.00 That's right all 118 Digi's for 25 bucks... it's a deal that doesn't last too long, Just think if you have card swaps coming up, cards to make for family, this is the time to grab em all...if you are missing a dragon or two, now's the time to complete that set. This is less than 4 digis for a dollar...Once the sale is over the link disappears and everything goes back to the way it was....Be sure to pass this along so that your friends and family don't find out later that you didn't share and you end up on the naughty list this Christmas...Please note the file is 23 MB. Not too big, but just wanted to let people know it's a little bigger than normal..."

You'll be sorry if you miss out on this deal! Till tomorrow!
