October Pixel Scrapper Blog Train and Fan Freebie

September just flew by.  The worst part was trying to figure out what to wear each day.  One day it was in the 80s and the next day it dropped into the 60s, and much colder at night.  Back and forth all month long.  Haven't turned the heat on yet, but that day is coming!

Using the same color scheme, I've created my new October Fan Freebie for you.  Originally I was going to create a cluster frame, but decided that you might like the elements separate to mix and match with all the other kits on this train.

This month's train is so much fun!  The ladies have come up with some terrific kits, all in a really great color scheme.  Be sure to collect them all during the month of October to use with all your wonderful fall photos.  You can find them on the train list  HERE

Hope you all have a wonderful fall!  Enjoy!

September Pixel Scrapper Blog Train and Fan Freebie

I don't usually wish my summer away, but with the hot weather we had this year, I'm actually pretty happy that summer is almost over and done.  We usually have much nicer weather from now into November -- warm days, cool nights.  I hope this year is no different.

This month's theme is "Cozy Kitchen".  I tend to be the happiest when I'm messing around in the kitchen.  I like trying new recipes and pulling together fabulous meals for holidays and special occasions.  But, my favorite activity in the kitchen is baking.  Cookies, cakes, pies, dinner rolls and breads, sweet rolls and ... oh my gosh, I'm making myself hungry!  I love my kitchen.  Lots of hickory cabinets and hardwood floor, plenty of counter space and a great big island right in the middle.  Plenty of room to bake to my heart's content!

And, here's a matching Fan Freebie to complete the kit.

I hope you have fun working with these papers and clipart.  They would be perfect to scrap a book with your favorite recipes.  Enjoy!

August Pixel Scrapper Blog Train and Fan Freebie

It's always fun to do artwork for kids.  Thanks to digital photography, I probably have more photos of my grandkids than what I ever had of my own children.  I can't even begin to imagine how much I spent on film and developing back then, and all too often getting photos back that were less than perfect.  I remember one time getting a full pack of photos back covered with white spots because they didn't clean up their printers.  Geez!  Fortunately, I could always get a refund on bad photos.  That's fine and good except there is no way I could ever have a photo of that special moment again.  Like I said -- I love my digital cameras!

The Alpha kit includes small and capital letters and literary symbols in 6 different colors.  Adding captions to your pages adds that little extra, especially when that photo is screaming that it has something to say!

I also have a new Fan Freebie -- frames, borders and graffiti that matches "Kids Ahead".   Creating pages with these kits is almost as much fun as finger painting!  Enjoy!

Just a note about Freebies --

I keep all Blog Train and Fan Freebies available for the entire month that they are introduced and published on my blog.  Some remain available beyond that.  And, some don't.  It all comes down to server space.  My painting store takes first priority because, quite honestly, it pays the bills.  So, be sure to pick up freebies sometime during the month because I can't guarantee they'll be there when the month is over.

Celebrate July

I won't be participating in the Pixel Scrapper Blog Train this month.  I simply ran short of time.  This always tends to be our busiest time of year.  This year has been busier than most.  One of my horses, Dakota, had problems with one of his front legs.  A horse on three legs IS a problem!  X-rays didn't show much, so we moved him into the "sick boy stall".  He's such a big baby that I had to mix his meds with apple sauce and hand feed it to him twice a day.  After two weeks of this, he's steady on all fours, even at an easy run, and I was finally able to let him out with his pals again. 

You can download both kits right from this page or over at my website by clicking the icon at right.
