Easter Weekend Days 41 to 44 of 100 Freebies

wahooo....
Happy Easter Weekend Everyone.
I hope you all have a lovely time with family and friends and enjoy some R&R
A quick note to Reeny who left a comment on my 4shared. I hope you are feeling much better now hun and please don't worry about the links. The 100 Days of Freebies will stay up as will the link for the Ornamental Spring SAS Blog Party Kit for those of you on dial up so you'll have plenty of time to grab everything.
I thought today, since I just know I won't get a look in with the pc for the whole of the weekend, I'd share with you the whole weekends freebies but first, lets take a little look at what our last 10 days of Freebies added to the collection for you
Here is what you got for Days 31 to 40
4 papers, 1 QP, 1 Alpha and a total of 15 Elements. WOW, pretty cool huh!
Well, there is more to come....


Password is 100freebies
Toady I have yet another of my favourite elements. This gorgeous set of two paper-binders and half flowers. These always look so sweet clipped to the edge of your journal tags, clusters or photo frames and add that little touch of something special. You can grab them here or click the preview. Enjoy.


Saturdays Gifty is this lovely little ribboned cluster. I've included the elements in seperate png files for you too so you can choose how to add them to your lo's. Grab them here or click the preview. Have fun.



Sunday's Treat is this very 'Artsy' set of papers that would be perfect for doing those Oh so cool minimal lo's. You know the sort, with just one photo and perhaps some swirlies tucked underneath or a really BIG title. Grab them here or click the preview and let your imagination run riot with these.



For Easter Monday I have for you two sweet page fasteners. These are a must for any collection and I just know you'll find plenty of great uses for them. Grab them here or click the preview.
Be sure to come back on Tuesday for day 45 and a little 'hint' of whats to come. I know you're going to love it.
And to finish with today, I wanted to share with you these two fantastic lo's by our wonderful blossom Lois. She used her CT Appreciation Kit to create these lovely lo's to say Thank You to all the Designers who took part. Arn't they fab.


Don't forget, my 'Spring Passion' kit is still on sale with a great 25% off until the 27th March. Grab it now at this great price. Available at SAS
My 'Spring Passion' Sampler is still available too. Scroll down here a post or two or visit the SAS store where you can also grab it for free.
Next week, I'll have more wonderful lo's to share with you from our Fantastic blossoms and I believe Blossom Blog hostess 'Lois' is planning a brand new challenge (I'd better get working on something then hadn't I, lol) so be sure to check out the Blossoms Blog for news of that.

and thats about it from me for today. Thank you all for your wonderful comments both here and on 4shared which mean much more to me then you know. See you back here on Tuesday. Until then, have a wonderful and blessed Easter.

Day 39 of 100 Freebies and lots more....

Password is 100freebies

Hello everyone. I heard some very sad news today. Anita of Nana's Attic lost her precious husband of 41 years very suddenly. If you get a chance, please stop by her blog and leave her some love. She's been such a major part of the digi world for so long and she really is the sweetest lady.

On a lighter note, OMG, if any of you (and I know some of you do) have been reading my blog you will have noticed a little teaser in the top right side bar. Hehe..... told you guys I had more lush surprises for you and WOW, what I've just seen coming from a certain Designers staff room has left my eyes watering and my legs wobbly. I am so excited about this little treat but I'm not spilling the beans yet, you'll just have to drag yourself here tomorrow to be in with a chance to enjoy the fun, la la lala la.....

Ok, I think I figured out why some people are getting caught up in the password loop at 4shared. It seems to be my little spare freebie account that it happens on so I' thinking it must kind of burn out if there are too many downloads going on at once. You don't seem to have this problem with my paid account so I've made some space and popped the last two links in there as well as todays for you. Hopefully you won't have any more download problems.

You can grab Days 37 here and 38 here

And here is Day 39

As always, password is 100freebies

This is definately one of my all time favourite set of papers in this 'little' kit. I've used them a lot. naturally, they come via KimB's gorgeous CU Grab Bags. I think this one was Bag 5

Anyway, grab it here or click the preview. Have fun

And now for my brand new kit 'Spring Passion'

Wow, this kit turned into a monster, lol. Once it started it just wouldn't stop hehe. And naturally, you all get the benefit in a wacking big kit that is now available in my SAS store here.

Grab it now while its on sale at 25% off. Only for a limited time.

And for a little taster, how about this lush little sampler. 4 papers and 9 elements in total and none repeated in the mega kit. Grab it here or click on the preview or you can also grab it at the SAS Store. Have fun.

Password is springHey, and while you're over at SS checking out our wonderful store, why not pop in and have a look at the challenges we have going. There are some awesome Posting Bonus's you can earn just for taking part and don't forget all the lovely freebie kits our members have submitted to the Colour Challenge this month. Theres even a freebie kit from me to help you complete the challenge. Check us out here and have yourself a lot of fun.


Ok folks, thats all from me for today. I'll be back tomorrow with another days freebie, the last 10days review, oh, and maybe a little something more wahahahahaha (that was my attempt at evil laughter again, I just can't get it right)

Hugs

I have to say, considering he's not far off my mums age, Don is a real looker, wowweeee, hehehe. Barry is the lead singer and I have to say, that man can sing. He sounds so like Jonny Cash I really thought I was listening to a record.

Congratulations to aristo.kat

Your name was chosen as our 'Name that Kit' Winner with

'Spring Passion'

Email me at booboo6204@hotmail.co.uk for your Prize. Well done, we LOVE the name.

You are

Spring Twilight by Sandy
Mulberry Flutterby by krisg

email me at the above addy for your prize and congratulations.

Now, I found when going through all of the names that some of you had the same suggestions. You all went into the Bonnet. Spring Passion actually came up three times, even my Blossom Trudie chose it, hehe. So I am so so sorry if you were one of those that chose the correct name but didn't get pulled out of the Bonnet.

To make up for that, and as a BIG thank you to all of you who took part, I've made a little add-on to this Mega Kit which you will get tomorrow so be sure to come back for this extra little treat.

Thats it from me for today folks. Again, Congratulations to our winners and thanks to everyone for making this such a super contest. We loved every name submitted. We'll do this again for sure.

Mums Treat

I'm posting this a little early today because I'm treating my mum to a night out on the town. We are headed off to the Bold Hotel in Southport where mums old School Chums, ' The Walmsely Brothers' are playing 50's,60's and 70's music. She doesn't know yet, hehe, its my little treat cause she's a pretty cool Mum.

The Walmsley Brothers

Wait for it.........

My BIG SECRET.....

It 'IS' Here....

The Great CT Appreciation Week

My BIG Secret can now be revealed, hehe. Whats it all about?? Let me tell you.

We Designers work long and hard on our kits and Digi Products because we want to give our customers the very best service we can. One important way for us to show you what we have is through layouts. This is a very important part of our business. However, we very often don't have time to do this ourselves so we have Creative Teams to work their magic for us. A Creative Team Member would take a kit and create a layout using it then post it to their Galleries letting people like you know what products they used and where to find them.

All they get in return for their dedicatated work and wonderful talent is the use of the Designers kit (usually for free).

What can WE do for them?
We Designers wanted some way to show our teams just how much we appreciate EVERYTHING they do for us so, Blossoms, this is what we came up with.

The Biggest Kit in the World and it has been created especially for YOU.

What happens after CT Apprecation Week?

Now, Once CT Appreciation Week is done, this Massive Kit may well be sold for Charity but thats something we are still discussing as I write this. Personally, I hope it is and I KNOW my Blossoms would feel the same way.

Who can get this Kit?

But for now. The ONLY people to get this special kit are the CT Teams of those Designers who took part. We have been so excited doing this for you and it was very hard to keep the secret for some of us, lol. We hope you love it as much as we love you.

How does the Team get this?

Private emails are being sent out to CT Teams from their Designers with the links for this kit. You won't find them here.

A Dedicated Gallery and Forum for Fun all week.

There is also a dedicated Gallery and Forum via the wonderful Melissa Bennet and Inked Edges just for the CT Teams to show off their lo's using this kit and to join in some very special challenges and fun all week long. Again, your private links will be sent you directly.

So, What do you think of

Grateful4You










This is why you need 2 whole gigs of free hard drive space girls. Yes, I did say 2 whole gigs. Thats how big this whoppa of a kit is.

Have fun. You deserve it!
and thats it from me for the weekend. I'm off to get ready to p-art-tayyyy, with my Mama.
Have a great weekend
Hugs to all
