Semi-retiring

It has been a busy month and I meant to post this a long time ago. The end of the month snuck up on me though. I am going to be retiring, sort of. Life has just gotten so busy that I can't keep up with everything. I can't find time to design much and the stress of having to get a certain number of products in the stores each month, plus collaborative kits for each site was too much for me. I didn't have any time with my family and I didn't like that. I am having a huge sale at each of my stores. Everything is 50% off at Scraphead, Scrapper's Zone and Studio Style Designs. You can find the link in my side bar.

I will be staying on at Groovy Scraps to do some charity kits and their monthly collaborative kits. I doubt I will put anything in the store. If I decide to design anything, I will give it away for free on my blog.

Thanks to all of you who have bought my products and downloaded my freebies. My family is the most important thing to me and it is very important that I have time with them. I made a go at digital designing when I couldn't work and my family really needed the money. I was blessed to get on in several stores very quickly. I did not make the kind of money I had hoped to, but I really enjoyed the process. It gave me something even more important. I needed some sort of distraction during a very difficult time in my life and designing provided that for me. As I was typing, that came to me-an epiphany as to why I was getting accepted to all of these stores. I think that distraction was the most important thing for me during that time. Things are much better now. I feel better, I have an answer as to what is wrong with me and I have a treatment plan to help some. Having MS has brought many blessing to me. I never thought such a horrible disease could bring so many blessings.

Speaking of MS, I will have a charity kit for the National MS Society in stores soon. It is a collaborative kit by some of the designers at Groovy Scraps. As soon as it is in the store, I will post about it.

So, take advantage of my retirement sales for the rest of the week. I hope you find some great deals and find something you like.

Big oops

Someone pointed out to me that they did not get brag book pages. Instead, they got my part of the Daily Download for this month. It seems I goofed. I picked the wrong file when I uploaded the brag book pages. I did instead put my entire part of the kit. Here is the corrected link for the brag book pages. For those of you who downloaded the initial zip, I hope you enjoy my part of the daily download. This is what I get for trying to post a freebie while I am also trying to go out of town.

Nightmare at Scraphead

Halloween is now a month away. The daily download at Scraphead this month is called "Nightmare at Scraphead". It is a Halloween themed kit. It is adorable. I don't have a preview of the entire thing since it is a daily download and we only do previews for the individual day. I do have a treat for you though. We are doing a blog train with brag book pages from the daily download.
link removed-see above post



Since this is a blog train, here are the other participants. I am posting this in the wee hours of the morning. The others may not have their part up yet. If they don't, please check back later to get their part. Also, please check out our forum at Scraphead to get the entire kit, day by day, so you can make your own full sized LO for you little trick-or-treaters. I think this is all of them. If I find out differently, I will add the new links. I hope you enjoy these brag books.
