If you're stopping by....I'm making teaching product's now....skip on over to my new blog!

Hello all,

I see I still get quite a bit of traffic here and I am really flattered!  I sort of hung up the scrapbooking thing once I started teaching general education. It has been really demanding and I always thought I'd get back to this but haven't been able to.  I tried to do something in photoshop and it was horrible. I have forgotten most of what I knew how to do. I was able to make a cute birth announcement for my god daughter but it took me much longer than I thought it would! ;)

Well, I have a new venture  and maybe some of you will want to check it out.  I am making teaching products and have a store on Teacher' Pay Teachers. My store name is Going Frananas!

I have a blog for it if you want to check it out!  It's here.  It's new I am just getting started.  I have been buying some graphics and I am seeing many selling digital papers. So, who knows I might repackage those and put them up for sale as well! :) But most of them want them commercial use because the people who buy them on there want them to make products to sell to other teachers.  It's a new adventure and I do like the creating part.

What I miss most about scrapbooking is the community of friends I had built doing this. If you happen along this post just know I wish you all well.

Blessings,

Dina

New Kit to be released soon and a FREEBIE

Hello All,

I have a new kit that will be released in the store soon. This month is proving to be more buy than last month and no relief in sight soon! I may not get any sleep until November!  So, I wanted to go ahead and preview the kit for you and then you could be watching for it in the store. I will try to get it in there before the sale is over, but no guarantees at this point.  I can't believe we are already almost half through September, where does the time go?

Here's the kit preview:



Now if you know me you know red, white and black are a favorite combo of mine. So, here is another way I got that combo in a kit. Ladybugs, naturally red and black and I threw in some green and a golden yellow like the daisy to round it out. I think you'll really like this kit. There's 33 elements including some cute word arts and 20 papers. I just couldn't help myself!

You definitely want to be on the look out for this kit. I'll post when it's in the store. Just keep checking back to the store:  www.digisisters.com  you don't want to miss out.

In case you aren't aware there is a 40% off sale going on from September 1 - 20.



You've got 9 days left! Don't want to miss out on this do you?

Also, we have the new September Back to School Collab in the store free with a $5 purchase think of all you can get with 40% off and a free collab with a $5 purchase!





Everyone has some school pictures of some kind your own, your children, your grandchildren.  It's an excellent collab kit you don't want to miss out on it.

So with no further delay here's the freebie.

SALE and a FREEBIE

Hello All,

I hope if you came Wednesday and had issues with the downloads for the blogtrain that you are trying again. I got some help with the codes and now they are working correctly.

I have some news to share with you about DigiSisters. It's a storewide SALE!


But we are really celebrating much more!

We have 3 new designers in the store.

Christine Ruff (Chrissy)  -  Wisteria Moments

Blog:     http://wisteriamoments.blogspot.com/


Christine, who is known as Chrissy, designs as Wisteria Moments. She has been married for 34 years and has 3 grown children and 2 lovely grandchildren, Megan & Sam. She loves to craft and has been knitting and crocheting since she was a child and in recent years has enjoyed paper crafts and card making. Card making led her into digital scrap booking and designing, while searching the web for lessons on how to create her own papers in Photoshop to try and save on the cost of buying papers and she very quickly became addicted to the digital world especially designing. She loves designing so much that most of her  time is now spent designing kits.

Next,

Heather Terry - Mason Creek Creations

Heather is a Texas girl, married to a Wyoming boy for 16 years now.  They lives in East Texas with their 2 sons, (a 12 year old and a 5 month old), 3 dogs, 2 pet rats and 2 outdoor cats.  This is her second year to homeschool her 12 year old and we are loving it. She has been scrapbooking for 11 years, 5 of those have been digital, 3 have been designing.  Once she was introduced to digital, shecouldn't turn back!
