dancers among us

If you love dance -

If you just love looking at something pretty -

- check out this series of photographs by Jordan Matters called "Dancers Among Us".

It features dancers from NYC doing everyday things in the city while dancing. Holy smokes. Josh found this gallery today and forwarded it to me. I just thought I'd share the awesomeness!

now I stamp by ABCs

Hey there and happy Friday to ya. I have 1 new item in the shop today. . .

"Stamp My ABCs"

I just love using stamped alphas, so I decided it was time to make a new one. Here's the page I scrapped with it:

And here's what the Britt Girls created:

Aren't they awesome?! And because its so simple to recolor with a color overlay, I know this is one of those alphas I will use over and over.

Alrighty - I guess that means its time for this week's Show Off slideshow. Here we go . . .

Thanks so much to everyone who showed off this week! You're all getting my new "Stamp My ABCs" as your weekly gift!

If you want to be a Show Off, scroll down & read the end of this post for more details.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!! Tomorrow (Saturday) afternoon at 1:00 (Mountain) there is a Speed Scrap at SM!! Hope you guys can make it!

Megan Turnidge is retiring!

A wonderful designer I CT for, and a sweet digi-scrap friend of mine, Megan Turnidge, had decided to close her shop. Megan says:

"It is with a heavy heart that I have decided to retire from designing and close up my shop at Scrap Orchard. Take advantage of this amazing sale - 50-80% off my designs (excluding select collabs)… and hurry quick because I will never make these items available again. Get it now before it’s gone FOREVER!!! Sale ends on April 25th when my shop closes. Thanks so much to all of my fans for your support! Love you guys! I’m going to miss designing but I know this is the right choice for me and my family. I’ll still be around… scrapping, blogging, and shopping!"

I'll miss Megan's designs! I REALLY love her style. But you should go grab a TON of goodies while they are dirt cheap!! Her kits are like $1.99 and lower right now!!!!

I've loved being on Megan's team! I'll miss it. Thanks Megan for the fun times and great digi products!

It's Opening Night!

Ok its Opening MORNING, but you get the idea!! I'm very excited for this opening morning because I'm releasing a LOT of stuff today! So let's get started . . .

"Opening Night"

This fabulous mega-collab I created with Stolen Moments Design is near and dear to both of us. We both come from theatre backgrounds, so we knew a theatre themed kit was perfect to create together! And I have to tell you - I just love how it came out!

We also created this coordinating set of Word Art, and if you purchase the kit during this opening weekend (before Monday 4/15) you get the Word Art pack for FREE automatically included in your downloads. No need to even put it in your shopping cart.

"Opening Night: Off Script"

And we BOTH have add-on freebies for you so read through to the end to snag 'em!!

Here is what I created with the new kit!!

I used one of Cindy Schneider's awesome templates and dug out some old pics from 2004. Don't we look young and adorable?

And here is what the always terrific Britt Girls created:

There are so many fun uses for this kit! From your kids' plays, to concerts, to a night on the town, etc. etc.!

I'm also releasing a fun pack of flowers today . . .

"{MY HAND}iwork: Flowers"

I hand doodled these flowers!! Aren't they fun?? Here's what a few of my Britt Girls created with these:

And last, but not least, I have some Quick Pages created with "The Ultimate Round Trip Ticket Bundle" my collab. with Sahlin Studios!

"Around the World Quick Pages"

"Taste of the World Quick Pages"

Quick pages are great for getting your pics scrapped quickly! And these are probably the most beautiful awesome QPs I've ever seen!!

Alright folks, let's enjoy some Show Offs right now!!

Thanks for all of this week's fab Show Offs! You're all getting my new "{MY HAND}iwork: Flowers". Watch for an email from me today!

If you'd like to Show Off & get goodies each week, but aren't sure how it's done - read the end of this post for all the details.

Alrighty - time to give out that freebie add-on I promised. You can get Stolen Moment's freebie on her blog! And here's mine:

And that's a wrap on this blog post!! Have a happy Friday.

Peek for tomorrow AND DigiScrapAddicts

Happy Tax Day. Yours truly is signing her returns late tonight and joining all those last-minute filers thankful for the late hours at the post office. LAME. Why do I wait 'til the last minute? I do NOT know. Anyway . . . on to a couple MUCH happier topics.

Lemme give you a little peek about what I'm releasing tomorrow! It's a collab, and I know you're gonna like it!!

Come back tomorrow to see the full kit and find out who the collab is with!! I'm so excited!

And . . . something else exciting . . . .

Guess who is one of the featured designers at DigiScrapAddicts (DSA) this month?! Yep! MEEEE!!

Basically this means that I'll be featured on their splash page, and then I've also created a very cute mini-kit to go in their "The Fix". Make sure you buy the April one if you want to get my kit. "The Fix" is a SWEET DEAL! Only $3 for 4 mini-kits from awesome designers!

Here's what you'll find from Britt-ish Designs inside the April "The Fix".

You should grab it while its in "The Fix". Because in a couple months it'll go into my shop at full price!!

Here's a page I scrapped with this kit (which, obviously was inspired by my recent new 'do).

Here are some from a few of the Britt Girls:

By Kim:

By Courtney:

By Jenny:

By Tanya:

Hope you all like it!

Have a great day! And to my fellow last minute tax peeps - GOOD LUCK!!
