Yahoo, it’s Friday! (…for me, probably Saturday when you are reading this, as it’s late here!) I am so looking forward to the weekend. Our granddaughter and grandson are coming over to help decorate our Christmas tree… something we attempted to do with them last weekend, but spent too long taking photographs and decorating the rest of the house!
So let me help start out your weekend with a few goodies to put in your digi-scrapping stash!
The designers at theStudio are hosting an Advent Calendar for you also. Each day you can download a free gift as you count down the days to the holiday. Just go to the storefront, and click on “Advent Calendar 2011 (DAD)” on the left hand side, in the Categories column, and you will be taken to the free gift for that day.
Also theStudio is hosting a new round of Challenges. You will find them in the Christmas Forum Fun! Be sure to check them all out, but especially Toiny’s Scrap Your Tree! Challenge. Toiny will be giving away an authentic German Christmas tree ornament. Also be on the watch for the announcement of the Chocolate Giveaway! I will be hosting the Sing Me A Song Challenge… no you don’t have to actually sing… but be sure to check it out soon! Not all of the Challenges are set up yet (including mine), but I wanted to give you a heads-up on them, so you can check back this weekend.
I love referrals! If you tell a friend about my designs, that tells me that you like them! I am hosting a Refer-a-friend Contest for the entire month of December. Refer your friends to my newsletter sign-up, or my facebook page. Have them sign up for my newsletter (and they will get a free Snickerdoodle Cookie alphabet!) and/or “like” my facebook page. Have them send a short email to me at Karen at SnickerdoodleDesignsbyKaren dot com with their name, where they signed up, and who referred them so YOU can be included in the drawing also. The top referral at the end of the month will win a $100 gift certificate to my store!
Digital Design Den is hosting a Countdown to Christmas blog giveaway! You will find a special gift each day, right up until Christmas! You can find your gifts HERE.
Don’t forget to check out FUNdamentals Photoshop Class, and put your name on the WaitList for January, if you are interested in learning Photoshop from a vibrant, FUN, knowledgeable and passionate teacher! You can contact the instructor, Priss Steelman, at fundamentalsclass at gmail dot com.
Today on Day 10 of my own Countdown to Christmas, I have some lovely Stacked Papers for you, designed by msbrad, a member of my Creative Team, using my Puppy Love Kit.
You can find Puppy Love on special for $2 HERE, December 10th and 11th only. And you can pick up your Stacked Papers HERE. (I’m sorry. This link has expired).


I hope you enjoy your Saturday and check back with me sometime Sunday!
