Last Big Sale & a New Kit!

Happy Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you have a beautiful, safe, and joyous Holiday weekend!

To add a little something to the festivities, thought I'd be sure to let you know about the HUGE and last SALE of the year at DeviantScrap.com.

http://www.deviantscrap.com/shop/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=29

And that's not all! I will have a new kit coming out this evening. It's an impromptu collaboration with Hidden Vintage Studios! We didn't plan this but as we finished up our kits, we realized we had a couple that worked well together.

Here is mine . . . Holiday Twinkle

And here is Hidden Vintage Studio's Sugar Plum Fairies . . .

Little Houses

Here it is, the Tumble Fish Studio Little Houses kit! You really have to see all the previews to appreciate this kit. One just doesn't give you the scope of what this kit will do! It's huge!

There are over 100 digital parts to it, 15 printable jpg sheets, lots of templates, elements, papers, and backgrounds. There is even a 2 page Tip Sheet included AND a free bonus mini kit! I also highly recommend purchasing the Fades kit I released a few weeks ago if you work digitally - the Tip Sheet tells you how to use part of the Fades kit to blend your Little Houses into any background.
The kit is on sale for a limited time. You can find the kit in my DeviantScrap.com shoppe HERE.
And the pictures below are linked to the shoppe as well.

Little Houses Kit Previews
This is all one kit with multiple previews and you still can't really see everything in the kit without visiting the shoppe listing.

The kit includes templates for easy cut and paste houses and digitally created and dimensional houses. You can cover the templates with textures and elements included in the kit or any others you have in your stash.

Creative Team Samples
These are samples my amazing Tumble Fish Studio Creative Team made with my new Little Houses kit, just released at DeviantScrap.com! It's on sale for a limited time! My Creative Team is incredible!

Sisters with Attitude and Craft Attitude

Hello everyone!

I'm excited to announce the Sisters with Attitude project will be shared over the next 2 weeks on the Craft Attitude website and Facebook page. Sisters with Attitude is a project created by Trudi Sissons of Two Dresses Studio. She pulled together this project to feature my Tumble Fish Studio (TFS) images (available at DeviantScrap.com), my Tumble Fish Studio Creative Team's artwork, and the incredible products from Craft Attitude. Most of the TFS Creative Team made art pieces using Craft Attitude art film for the first time to participate in this project and the results were amazing.

Be sure to visit the Craft Attitude website and Facebook page (linked above) every day October 14- October 27 to see new artwork from the TFS Creative Team and get inspired to try some Craft Attitude art film yourself!

I first heard of Craft Attitude back in January 2012 at the Craft Hobby Association convention here in Los Angeles. I had to have some as soon as I saw it and then wrote an article for Deviant Scrap's zine we had at the time, The Deviant Muse. I thought I'd share that tutorial (c.summer 2012) with you here too. You may notice in the photos in the article, when Craft Attitude first launched it was called "Kodak Shoe Art Film" but has since changed its name to Craft Attitude. It IS the same product. This article was for a summer issue of The Deviant Muse, but no matter the season, you'll find a million ways to play with Craft Attitude.

Though I've had a great time playing with Craft Attitude films, I'm still rather inexperienced with it. You can find tons of tutorials, ideas, and information on the Craft Attitude website so be sure and stop by!

New Swap and New Kit

Hello everyone!

I have a new digital kit out tonight. This one is for digital artists. I am always looking for ways to add a little more dimension to my digital collages, a little more interest. This kit includes some of my handy dandy tricks I use in my own work all the time. There are 13 digital overlays you can place over or in your digital pieces.

Be sure to play with blending modes. In the samples preview I used the overlays on 13 versions of the same work. I used blending modes such as "color burn", "overlay", "multiply", "lighten", and "soft light" depending on what I wanted for each piece. You can even use them as clipping masks in some cases and attach pattern or texture.

And, don't forget, YOU CAN CHANGE THE COLOR OF THE OVERLAYS. You do not have to keep them in the color I've included here. I just started with a color because it's easier to adjust the hue/color when you start with something other than gray, white, or black. Also, I usually work overlays like these into my layouts/artwork between other layers, not just on top. Sometimes I put them on top but not usually. It depends on the project.

This kit includes 13 12" x 12" digital overlays - some are in jpg format and some are in png. *Note: Art samples shown in the preview are not included in the kit.

Also, there's a new ATC swap I'm hosting at DeviantScrap.com . . . (picture linked to forum thread)

We'd love to have you play along! All mediums and experience levels welcome.

September? Really?

I cannot believe August is nearly over . . . or summer for that matter. In some ways, it's been a long miserable summer for me but in other ways, I can't believe it's almost fall already. Can't wait for cooler weather, dread the race to Christmas. Gotta get better at living and loving each day, one at a time, don't I?

Well, I'm working on a long list of things to get back in the swing around here. Took some time off - not necessarily to rest but just manage life's roller coaster. I'm trying to get back up and running. To kick things off, I have some fun news!

Spooktacular Sale!

That's right! 50% off of 7 fall festive kits through Sept.2nd. Then, they're all 30% off through Oct. 31st. A great bunch of kits to add to your stash!

With over 100 pieces in both digital png files and arranged on 12 printable jpg collages sheets (included in the kit), Shades of Blue is a little bigger than the other kits. It's on sale for a limited time and the preview below is linked to the shoppe.

Also on sale, French Music is a little kit that will be retiring after this week. It's on sale for $1.50, 50% off its original price.
