Sunday is Mother’s Day.  It holds different memories and feelings for each of us.
Some of us are Mothers.  Some aren’t.
Some of us may be dealing with the pain of not having a child, or of having lost one.
Some of us have Mothers we adore, and some of us may not even know who our Mother is.

Whatever your situation…. when Mother’s Day presents itself on Sunday, I hope that it is a day of positive reflection for you, and one that brings you some measure of joy.

There is a Free Gift on theStudio blog for you!  It was created by Jen, using Unforgettable, a collaboration between Aimee Harrison and myself!

Here is a preview of what you will be downloading:

And as another special Mother’s Day surprise for you, you will find my designs on sale for 40% off,  both at SnickerdoodleDesigns and theStudio thru Sunday evening!

Best Wishes for a wonderful weekend!

Hey there!  I hope you are having a great week and are looking forward to the excitement of iNSD this weekend!  I can’t wait! It’s such a fun day to visit stores, check out the great sales, play along in some of the challenges, and just catch up with friends in the forums!

I have been working with Aimee Harrison on a SWEET collaboration, which is set for release this Friday, May 4th!  Now, not only am I excited because it is just gorgeous (Aimee has an incredible eye for color and design!!!), but also because the kit will be the DOTD (Download of the Day) at theStudio on Friday.  What that means is that you can pick up this BRAND NEW kit for 70% off!  But this is for Friday only. A 24 hour period!  So mark your calendars and head on over to either one of our stores on Friday to take advantage of this great special!

Now I don’t want you to go away empty handed today, so I do have an adorable Quick Page for you, designed by Kabra, a member of my Creative Team, using Dreamin’ of Daisies!  This is my latest kit, and you will be able to find it in any of my stores this weekend for 50% off!  Be sure to take a peek at the coordinating products, that will make your scrapping a breeze! I especially love the borders in this collection!

Over the past weeks, I have been fortunate enough to work with two very talented designers: Sherah, of SKrapper Digitals, and Min of Deli Scraps.  Our goal was to provide a Collection that conveyed the feeling of a rustic, grungy, vintage garden.   We believe we accomplished that goal with “Vintage Garden.” We were expecting to see layouts from our creative teams highlighting their outdoor photos, garden efforts, or flower gardens! While we have seen some of that, we have also been treated to many gorgeous layouts that have nothing to do with gardening!  That is when we felt we had a true winner!  A Collection that is versatile and can easily accommodate multiple styles, themes, and  subjects!

You can find the complete Vintage Garden Collection at theStudio.  Individual products are currently priced at 33% off, or you can pick up the entire Collection at a 55% savings.

 And here are just a few of the amazing layouts from my creative team!

And here is a gift for you, designed by me, using just some of the design elements from my contribution.  Simply click on the image to download it.

“There is always music amongst the trees in the garden. But our hearts must be still to hear it.” – unknown

May you find a few minutes to be still this week.

In my blog post of March 23rd, I presented Flower Creek Lane to you, which was my contribution to the Color Coordinated Designer Collaboration, Spring Fling, at theStudio. I said that I would love to see any of your creations, and I was delighted to see so many lovely layouts uploaded to my Studio Gallery. Thank you so much!

I held a random drawing to present one person with a $5 coupon to my store, and the winner is…….. Renee!

Congratulations, Renee!  Be sure to check your PM box at theStudio today for information on picking up your prize.

Don’t forget that my designs are on sale for 33% off until the end of April, so stock up on what you need now!

Words from Jen, via theStudio Blog

Winter has come and gone and spring is full of all things fresh and new. I can hardly resist the urge to turn everything upside down – to plant and pull flowers and weeds in my garden, to get going on craft projects I’ve been aching to do, even to redecorate my living room! Life is all about balance though, and I must remember in all of this excitement for new, I’ve got much already around me to appreciate too! Balancing Act, a new kit by Karen of Snickerdoodle Designs, reminds us of just that: to celebrate the renewal of spring while keeping a sense of balance in our already full lives. Adorable bunnies, sheep, and chicks strive to keep their balance among flowers and Easter eggs, rain or shine; there’s buttons and ribbons and baskets…and so much more! You can find Balancing Act in Karen’s shop here at theStudio. Or, just click on the preview below to be redirected (hint: if you hurry, it’s 50% off on today, Sunday, then 33% off the rest of the week.)

Be sure to check out the addons as well – there’s a cluster set, a pack of solids, wordart, and styles too. Or, make it simple and just grab the whole collection at once here.

Need some inspiration? Check out these super sweet layouts from the Snickerdoodle Designs CT.

And, to get you started on your own layouts, Karen sent over this super cute cluster for you to download exclusively from theStudio blog. Have a great (and balanced) day!

No matter what season it is, keeping balance in my life is always a challenge!  What about you?

Balancing, both the old and the new things in our lives,  is what my kit “Balancing Act” is all about. Some of you may recognize the name of this kit A few weeks ago I started to simply “revisit” and add a few more elements to it, but by the time I was finished, the kit had received a complete make-over!  With 95% new elements and the addition of some extras, Balancing Act will provide you with all your need for your Easter or Spring projects!

Both the kit and extras are on sale for 33% during the entire month of April!

But keep reading to learn about the special Specials in April!

And as a special treat, all of my products are on sale for 50% EVERY SUNDAY during the month of April only @
