Journal Cards & a FREE mini kit

Happy Monday!

I have 2 new little  mini kits in the shoppe at DeviantScrap.com.  I've started a new series of Journal Cards that I'll be adding to frequently.   Some will be released to coordinate with other kits and some will be randomly themed. Many will use bits and pieces from my other Tumble Fish Studio kits, but the work of creating a premade background is all done for you. For those of us intimidated by diving into full sized Art Journaling projects, these little cards offer an easy, worry-free way to get started. Just print them out, or use digitally, and embellish with words, other images, stamping, or other media. Cards can be bound together in a variety of ways. You can also use these cards for ATC's, tags, note cards, address labels, postcards, and backgrounds in other work.

This kit includes twelve 4" x 6" jpg cards that are also arranged ATC-sized on two printable jpg collage sheets.

Here are a couple of little sample pieces I made using the backgrounds.

Valentine Junque

Hello People!  Happy Thursday!

I have a new kit out today . . . one of my favorites from the Junque series I've released this last year.  I hope you like it too!  The preview below is linked to the shoppe listing.  It's on sale for a limited time!  I have a few little mini kits coming out this weekend but after that it may be a couple of weeks before my next release.

And here are some sample pieces I made using this kit . . .

Have a great weekend everyone! If you come back Sunday night/Monday morning, I'll tell you where you can grab my new mini kits and a FREEBIE kit!

Winter Winners!

Hello!   Again, so sorry for my delay in posting the prize winners yesterday.  Now we play the "waiting on contractors" game . . . waiting on them to come and give estimates for how we're going to heat this house again.  While I'm waiting, might as well be productive.

So, here's the new kit that released last night, Winter Junque.
It's on sale now for a limited time.  The picture is linked to the shoppe.  You'll have to wait until Thursday to see the other new kit in the sneaky peek in the post below, but at the bottom of this post you'll find the prize winner for that one too.

And here are a couple of little quickies I made using the new kit.  The first one also uses my Putz Houses mini kit released in December.

And here our lucky winners!

I numbered the comments in the order they appeared.  There were 14.  I used the Random Number Generator to select our winners.

The winner of the new Winter Junque kit is Bernie@OneMixedBag!   Congratulations Bernie!

The winner of the yet-to-be-revealed kit is Dale!  (there's no link so I'm hoping I contact the right Dale!)

And for the rest of you, I have a little consolation prize . . . here are 2 free images you can use.  Either right click on it from here or left click first and then right click it to save the image to your computer.   Free to use in your own work (even work for sale), but please do not sell or redistribute the image as is.

 

Thank you ALL for your lovely comments!  I really enjoyed reading your goals for the new year and you have inspired some new ones for me.   I also really enjoyed hearing from some long lost friends - so fun to reconnect!

And lastly, keep an eye on this blog!  There will be things you won't want to miss in the next several days!

Slightly Delayed

Hi everyone!

I'm running late on the prize drawing.  Our heat went out last night and, of course, during a record breaking cold snap here in California.  Looks like our old floor furnace finally quit and there's no easy repair - just an $8,000 or so whole new central system to think about which may also require another $8000 or so house electrical rewire.  Needless to say, I have been beside myself today and not on my game.  I will get the drawing done tomorrow if I thaw out my brain!

So sorry about the delay!

How awful!

I cannot believe the last time I posted was before Thanksgiving!  I popped in this morning to change my banner image and discovered, despite my imaginative optimism, I pretty much abandoned things through all of December!  Admit it.  I get the award for AWFUL blogging, at least 2 years in a row.  And now you know one of my goals for 2013 . . . to be a better blogger!

Well, I won't bore you with my lackluster tale of busy work last month, but I'm happy to report that I'm back to the creative work that I love and very excited about the blank slate of a new year ahead.  I have lots of artistic goals and things I want to try and accomplish, and I look forward to sharing a bit of that with you as they unfold.  There will be sewing involved and messy paints and handmade stamps and construction pieces and . . . . can't wait to get caught up enough to get started.

In the meantime, I have managed to get two kits sent off to my Creative Team this week.  One will be released late Sunday, 1/13, and one on Wednesday, 1/16.  I can't show them to you yet, but thought I'd give you a sneak peek and offer up a prize drawing to give one of each away.

Sneaky Peek #1 . . . 

Sneaky Peek #2 . .  .

Now, to win one of these kits . . . 
You must share one of your goals for the new year ahead in a comment on this post.  You can share more than one if you'd like, but each person will only be entered into the drawing once.   Winners will be announced Sunday, January 13 so leave your comment before then.
