Mouse House Digi Scrapping

Thanks for the recent comments!

2010-05-17T14:43:00.002-04:00

I know, it's been a month since I've uploaded anything... and I feel so guilty about it and do apologize. But since I've had a few questions about if I'm coming back, I thought I'd better respond in some way.

I'm chalking this recent "quietness" up to my trying to figure out what direction my life should take right now. I've been doing a lot of "soul searching" of late, and just haven't really felt like designing a whole lot.

Also, to be honest, our financial situation, while not as bad as some folks' in this area, is not the greatest and it hasn't been for the past 10 years, and we're trying to rectify that.

While I'm thankful that whatever we've needed has always been provided when we need it, I'm also realistic enough to realize that we need to better ourselves, financially... I'm not saying I expect us to some day retire in the lap of luxury... far from it. In fact, at this point, I don't ever see either myself or Brian "retiring"... at the rate we're going, we're going to be working until the day we drop, or just can't anymore. :-(

All that being said, it's been extremely difficult for me to just go out and find a job, for several reasons. #1, our area was hit extremely hard by the recent financial downturn - our county here in northern Indiana used to be the RV manufacturing capital of the world... and most of the companies either went under or drastically reduced their work forces... so any good-paying jobs are pretty much non-existent, or so it appears. #2, while I do have a bachelor's degree, since I was a stay-at-home Mom for the majority of my adult working life, I'm either under-qualified or "over age" for a lot of the computer graphics positions I do see available (and again, in this area... they're just not there, for the most part.) Also, relocating to a better job market just isn't feasible for us at this time... I'd love to move to Nashville, but the earliest I see that happening is in at least a year's time.

So, basically, I'm not really sure what I'm going to do. I do enjoy the digi scrap designing, but lately, my heart just hasn't been in it. Heck, I'm not even having WDW-withdrawal like I usually do, and we don't have another trip planned... at all! We spent a long weekend in Nashville a month ago (prior to the flooding, which has just been heartbreaking to me, too!) and I'm finding myself listening more to country music than Disney music! (Never thought that would happen!)

So, like I said... I'm just not sure what's up, nor what's going to be going on with my freebies. I will, however, leave everything up online for downloading, so that anyone who happens to stumble upon this blog can get the freebies... I'm just not sure when I'll be posting any new ones, unfortunately.

Don't completely count me out, though. Who knows what will come around the corner next week, or next month!

Again, I do want to apologize to all of you... and I am so very thankful for all of the kind words you've left me here throughout this whole time! You're great! :-)

This week's freebies will be split over 2 weeks

2010-04-13T20:19:00.003-04:00

Hi everyone!

I want to let y'all know that the freebies for this week will actually be split over this week and next week. I have some obligations that will prevent me from posting every day during the next two weeks, but I should be able to split it up so that you get one full set of 5 freebies for All-Star Movies spread out over this week and next.

Have a great couple of weeks! I'm going to be playing the proverbial chicken for awhile... cluck cluck... ba-caaaaawk! ;-)

Thanks for your patience! 8(:-D

This week - All Star Movies!

2010-04-12T23:06:00.002-04:00

If you've stayed in the Calypso buildings...

2010-04-07T16:09:00.003-04:00

... then here's a title just for you!

Today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie is based on the signage on the giant marimba in the Calypso section of Disney's All-Star Music Resort.

This title is approximately 11 x 3 inches at 300 dpi, and in this case, the title you'll download is shadowed exactly as you see it in the sample above. You can download the zipped PNG file here.

That's it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

Here's an All-Star Music word art for you

2010-04-06T22:50:00.002-04:00

Today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie is a piece of colored word art:

This textured and slightly-dimensional (but not shadowed) embellishment is approximately 10x6 inches at 300 dpi. It highlights all five of the individual sections of the resort, as well as the name of the resort itself. You can download the zipped PNG file from here.

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

Like last week's paper from Sports, this paper coordinates with the exterior entranceway at the Melody Hall building, but in red this time.

I hope you enjoy your virtual stay here at Music! Until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Here's the final Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie for this week, from my All Star Sports Resort kit...

That's it for today; so sorry to be uploading this so late in the day (okay, it's officially Saturday...) but I had some other pressing work to do ahead of this. Thanks for understanding! :-)

So, until next week, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Game, Set and Match! ;-)

2010-04-01T20:54:00.002-04:00

This basketball might not bounce all that well

2010-03-30T22:00:00.002-04:00

But I think you'll like using it for any All-Star Sports digital scrapbooking layouts!

Yup, today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie is this puffy felt basketball embellishment!

Final Pop Century Freebie

2010-03-27T18:22:00.003-04:00

Here's today's (or yesterday's, technically, I suppose!) Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie for you from my Pop Century kit:

If you've ever stayed at Pop and wandered around the 90's buildings, you probably have noticed all the giant CDs that are attached to the balcony railings. (If not, be sure to take a look next time - they're all different and graphically quite interesting.) Well, this chipboard element is a recreation of one of the CDs. It's about 2.5 inches square, and does not have a shadow applied to it (only the sample shown above.) You can download the zipped PNG file from here.

That's it for this week. On Monday, I'll start uploading a brand new set of freebies... where in the World will we wind up next? Stay tuned! ;-)

Until tomorrow, remember...

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Today's freebie - delayed until Saturday - sorry!

2010-03-26T22:28:00.000-04:00

I had some unexpected work to do today, so I didn't get a chance to create a freebie for today. (Sorry!) However, I will be doing one for tomorrow to make up for it. Just an fyi! And thanks for being patient!

8(:-D

Wakka-wakka-wakka...

2010-03-25T17:51:00.002-04:00

Yup, if it's the '80s we're talking about today, then that sound should take you back to one of the highlights of that era, and it's all over the '80s section of Disney's Pop Century Resort... We're talkin' Pacman, of course!!

So today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie from my Pop Century kit is just that... a frame for your 4x6 photos (the full size is approximately 5x7 at 300 dpi) featuring Pacman gobbling up those white dots and being observed/chased by a red ghost. You can download the zipped PNG file from here.

Tomorrow will be the last freebie for this week, and it will be something from the '90s section of Pop Century. This has been a fun bunch to design, and I hope you find something useful from these 5 freebies!

That's it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Have a Nice Day...

2010-03-24T21:40:00.002-04:00

... and you'll definitely have one with this Disney-inspired digital scrapbook element based on Disney's Pop Century Resort!

Monday's freebie was from the 50s area, yesterday's was the 60s, so it only follows that today's is from the 70s section of Pop! ;-)

This Mickey smiley face embellishment is approximately 3x3 inches at 300 dpi, and it has a puffy felt look to it. You can download the zipped PNG file from here. The image you'll download will not have any shadows applied to it, only the sample shown above.

That's it for today; tomorrow... the 80s... and until then, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Cannonball!

2010-03-23T22:51:00.003-04:00

Right into the Hippy Dippy Pool, that is! ;-)

Today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie is an 8 x 4 inch (approx.) title for all of your Pop Century swimming pool layouts! (At least, those that feature the Hippy Dippy Pool, of course!)

You can download the zipped PNG file from here; you'll receive the full 300-dpi image file - there will be just some slight shadowing applied to the "Hippy Dippy Pool" text - not the flowers as shown in the sample above.

That's it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Getting back to the freebies!

2010-03-22T17:28:00.003-04:00

Okay! I'm finally back to doing my Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebies! I really want to thank everyone for being patient... I'm not 100% certain as to how long I'll be doing the freebies, but for the foreseeable future, I'm doing so. (I am going to try to jump-start my digital artwork again once the weather warms up and the scenery gets a little prettier around here - winter is never a time I enjoy getting out to do photography! But until I get too bogged down with my prints, I'll be continuing creating digi scrap items!)

Another change I'll be implementing with my freebies is that I'll only be giving away 5 freebies per week, Monday thru Friday. I was really starting to get a little burned out, frankly, and this way, I can take a bit of a breather on the weekends. We tend to do a lot together as a family on the weekends, and Sundays are basically a complete write-off for me, between church taking up the morning and then family stuff for most of the rest of the day... you get the picture!

So... without further ado (since, let's face it... we're talking FREEBIES!)... here's today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie... direct from the Pop Century Resort in sunny Orlando... ta da!

It's a 12x12 inch, 300-dpi paper that practically screams Pop Century's 50's area! ;-) Pop Century is one of my favorite resorts to stay at WDW, and while we've never stayed in the 50s area, I'm always drawn to the fun location.

You can download the zipped file from here and you'll receive the full 300-dpi file. This paper will really enhance all of your photos from the Pop 50s area, I'm certain! :-)

That's it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Thanks so very much, y'all!!

2010-03-08T14:43:00.002-05:00

I just want to touch base with everyone - I know it's been a couple of weeks since I posted anything here... I really didn't expect this project that Brian & I are working on to take this long, but it has and I've also been taking the opportunity to do a little "soul searching" as to what I want to be working on, artistically speaking.

I'll be honest; I keep bouncing all over the place... from my digital photography to digital watercolor prints to digi scrapping to web design to animation (which is along the lines of the current project)... unfortunately, I'm a Jill of all trades when it comes to digital art, apparently! (You know the saying, "Jack of all trades, master of none"... yeah, it applies...) It's really frustrating, because I really do enjoy working in all the various mediums that I've been playing around with... yet I know that I really should buckle down and concentrate on just one - or else I'll never be a real success with any of them. (Sigh.)

Don't panic, tho... I have a feeling I'm still edging towards the digi scrap stuff... I might not always be concentrating on the Disney-inspired work, though. Although, I have a feeling anything I do design will always "work" with Disney layouts (I just can't break away from it completely, I'm finding!) ;-)

That's it for today... nothing earth-shattering, I guess, but I don't want everyone worrying, either. (And again, thanks for all the words of encouragement!) :-)

Now, if only spring would truly get here to Indiana... I'd be a whole lot happier! ;-)

Back soon, I promise!

8(:-D

No freebies for a few days... sorry!

2010-02-20T17:20:00.002-05:00

I wanted to let y'all know that I won't be posting any freebies for a few days... I have a project I'm working on that's taking up all of the time I'd normally be using for design work. When it's finished, I'll put up a link to it... it's completely unrelated to scrapping, so I have to really put a lot of thought into it.

I hope you're not too disappointed!

But I'll be back, I promise! (With a brand new set of freebies, to boot!)

Until then, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Today's Disney-inspired digi scrap freebie...

2010-02-19T21:03:00.002-05:00

... is a set of gold heart-shaped photocorners.

You can download the zipped PNG file from here; the file you download will not have any shadows applied, just the sample shown up above.

That's it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Well, it's not Paisley...

2010-02-18T22:33:00.002-05:00

... but today's digi scrap freebie does contain a Brad or two! ;-)

You can download these two shiny brads that coordinate with my Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking romantic/wedding kit for this week from here.

Each of the brads is approximately 1x1 inch at 300 dpi, and neither of them will be shadowed, just the sample shown above.

That's it for today... be sure to come back tomorrow for another freebie, and remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

What could be more romantic...

2010-02-17T19:24:00.003-05:00

... than a couple of entwined hearts?

Yup, the digi scrap freebie that I have for you today is just that... a pair of gold entwined hearts.

This embellishment will work well for weddings or anniversaries (especially Golden 50th ones!) and you can download the zipped PNG file from here. And as usual, the file you'll download will not be shadowed, just the sample shown above.

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

A Mickey Rose paper

2010-02-16T19:30:00.002-05:00

Today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie is another Disney wedding-inspired item... today, it's a 12x12 paper with the Mickey Roses from Sunday as the main theme.

The paper is 300 dpi, and you can download the zipped file from here.

This should work really well for any of your Disney (even non-Disney!) weddings or other romantically-themed layouts. :-)

That's it for today; we've got even more snow coming... just what I don't really need or want! So until tomorrow, keep warm, keep dry, and remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Nothing says romance...

2010-02-15T21:01:00.002-05:00

... like a plate o' spaghetti! ;-) (or so says my hubby!)

Today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie is just that... a heart-shaped plate of spaghetti that would have Lady and the Tramp just lickin' their chops in anticipation! :-) (oh, and of course, it includes the required hidden Mickey meatballs!)

This embellishment is a little under 3x3 inches at 300 dpi, and you can download the zipped PNG file from here. The file you'll download will not have any shadows applied to the plate - just the sample shown above for illustrative purposes, of course!

That's it for today... until tomorrow, be sure to wear a bib and remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

In honor of Valentine's Day today and this week...

2010-02-14T18:36:00.003-05:00

... I decided to do a few "romantic" freebies this week for my Disney-inspired digital scrapbook elements and backgrounds for you! I hope you'll find these suitable for any romantic Disney photos and layouts... ranging from weddings, proposals, anniversaries... you name it, I hope you find something you can use!

And to start off the week, here's a Mickey-rose embellishment for you!

This embellishment is approximately 3x3 inches at 300 dpi, and you can download the zipped PNG file from here. The sample up above is shadowed, but the file you'll download will not have any shadows applied to it.

That's it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

And the final Splash Mountain freebie is...

2010-02-13T21:15:00.003-05:00

This frame is approximately 4x4 inches at 300 dpi, and you can download the zipped PNG file from here. And as usual, the PNG file you'll download will not be shadowed... just the sample shown above! :-)

That rounds out the 7 freebies from this kit for this week... make sure you come back tomorrow to see what the next set will be! (Hint... think "Valentines"... ;-) )

That's it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

2010-02-12T22:39:00.002-05:00

Today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie from my "MK-Frontierland-Splash Mountain" kit will help you do just that:

I don't think I've ever ridden Splash Mountain without getting wet at some point... and I'll bet you haven't, either!

You can use this 4x4 inch (approx.) at 300 dpi embellishment to help you remember all that soaking on your layouts! ;-)

You can download the zipped PNG file from here; the image you'll download will not be shadowed (I've shadowed the sample up above just for illustration.)

And a tip of Jack's hat to this week's kit...

2010-02-06T19:10:00.002-05:00

That's right... today's the final day of my freebies from this week's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook kit, my "MK-Adventureland-Pirates" kit! And in honor of that, I'm giving you your very own Jack Sparrow pirate hat!

What's great about this (approximately) 1 inch by 3 inch (at 300 dpi) pirate hat embellishment is this: it's sized to fit yesterday's pirate skull freebie! (Or any other similarly-sized pirate head you might have handy!) So you can have your skeleton head wearing Jack's hat... or going without! ;-)

You can download the zipped PNG file from here; the image you'll get will not have any shadows applied to it (the sample up above has them applied just to illustrate how it will look once you add them to it on your layout.)

A great big "Thank You!" to everyone for the comments you've left me! You guys (gals?) really are a huge source of inspiration to me. Whenever I seem to get "artist's block" I tend to re-read some of your comments... and it really does help me out! :-)

That's it for today... until tomorrow (and the start of a brand new kit!), remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

Dead men tell no tales… tales…

2010-02-05T20:59:00.001-05:00

Today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my “MK-Adventureland-Pirates” kit won’t tell any tales, either, but it will definitely bring your Pirates layouts to life! ;-)

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

How ‘bout some Cutlass Photocorners?

2010-02-04T22:20:00.001-05:00

Here’s today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie from my “MK-Adventureland-Pirates” kit… a set of four pirate-themed photocorners:

Each of these corners are a little over 1 inch by 1 inch at 300 dpi; you can download the zipped PNG file here. The file you’ll download will not have any shadows applied to it; I only put them on the sample up above to illustrate how they’ll look with a small shadow added to it.

Thanks for all of your comments this week! I’m happy that you all like the freebies from this week’s kit so far! :-)

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

Every pirate needs some booty!

2010-02-03T17:49:00.001-05:00

And today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie (from my “MK-Adventureland-Pirates” kit) will provide just that!

This embellishment of gold coins is approximately 4x6 inches at 300 dpi – it will bring a definite piratical flair to any of your Pirate layouts! (I like the look of this set of coins in the lower left corner of the page… but be bold! Put ‘em wherever you need a little booty!) ;-)

You can download the zipped PNG file from here; this time, I have applied a small drop shadow to the individual coins – it enhances the sense of realism that way – so you might want to take note of the direction for your other shadows (the light hits from the upper left corner, forcing the shadow to the lower right.)

That’s it for today; I hope everyone is having a good week, plundering some of these freebies! ;-) Until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

8(:-D

Here’s a Pirates background for you!

2010-02-02T20:08:00.001-05:00

Every pirate themed scrapbook layout needs a themed background paper, so here’s today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my “MK-Adventureland-Pirates” kit that will fit the bill!

You can download this 12x12 inch, 300 dpi paper from here.

I’m experimenting a bit with my schedule this week (trying to get some work around the house done during daylight hours, which seems to work better for me, and doing my design work at night) so my uploads may be later in the day than usual. I’ll see if this works better for me – but I might always change it again, who knows?

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

8(:-D

Ye come seeking adventure and salty old pirates, aye?

2010-02-01T19:11:00.001-05:00

Sure you’ve come to the proper place! ;-) Here’s today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my “MK-Adventureland-Pirates” kit for today!

It’s a title for your Pirates page – this image is approximately 9 x 2 inches at 300 dpi, so it’s sized perfectly to use as a title… or you can shrink it down to use at a smaller size if you wish! You can download the zipped PNG file from here; the file you’ll download will not have any shadows applied to it – I only applied them to the sample above for illustrative purposes.

Thanks to all of you for your wonderful comments! I’m really glad that you’re enjoying this kit, especially so early on in the week! (But it’s hard to miss with the pirate theme, huh?) ;-)

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember…

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…

2010-01-31T21:28:00.001-05:00

And as usual, the file you’ll download does not have any shadows applied to it; I added them to the sample up above just for illustration purposes.

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

A final Adventureland paper

2010-01-30T21:17:00.001-05:00

Here’s the last of the 7 Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebies from my “MK-Adventureland” kit for this week…

It’s a 12x12 inch, 300 dpi background paper, with 4 large Tiki god shapes interspersed throughout… also with a fabric treatment as was the previous paper.

You can download the zipped file from here.

That’s it for today; until tomorrow (and the start of a new set of freebies) remember…

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

This PNG file is approximately 4 inches wide by 2 inches tall at 300 dpi, and you can download the zipped file from here. And, as usual, the file you’ll be downloading will not have any shadows applied to it… I only added shadows to the sample image for illustration purposes.

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

An Adventureland 4x6 Frame

2010-01-27T18:56:00.001-05:00

Today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie from my “MK-Adventureland” kit is a 4x6 bamboo-style frame.

This frame is just slightly larger than 4x6 inches at 300 dpi; it’s sized so the edges of your 4x6 photos will be hidden under the bamboo. You can download the zipped PNG file from here; the file you’ll download will not be shadowed, but as you can see from the sample above, it will look great shadowed on all of your Adventureland pages!

Thanks again for all the kind words! You guys (gals?) really do encourage me so very much! :-)

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

8(:-D

Every good adventure needs a backstory…

2010-01-26T18:50:00.001-05:00

… or at least a good background (paper)! ;-) Today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my “MK-Adventureland” kit is just that… a 12x12 inch at 300 dpi printed “fabric” background paper, suitable for all of your Adventureland (and maybe some Polynesian Resort – hint, hint) layouts!

You can download the zipped JPG file for the paper from here; I’ve shown you both an overall sample and a close-up of the paper up above so you’ll sort of know what you’re getting.

That’s it for today… boy, do I wish I could take a quick trip to some tropical paradise – we’ve had way too much snow and cloudy weather lately! So until tomorrow, remember…

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

8(:-D

In case it wasn’t obvious…

2010-01-25T20:32:00.001-05:00

…that we’re going to be wandering around Adventureland this week, here’s today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie for you from my “MK-Adventureland” kit! ;-)

This carved “wood” tiki-esque title is about 11 inches wide by a little over an inch tall at 300 dpi, so it will work really well for titling any of your Adventureland layout pages! You can download the zipped PNG file from here; the image you’ll download will not be shadowed… I added a shadow to the sample image up above just for illustrative purposes.

Hmmm… Maybe I chose Adventureland this week because I’m really getting tired of winter here in Indiana… and it’s snowing AGAIN! I could definitely use a tropical vacation right now, trust me!

That’s it for today… until tomorrow, remember…

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

8(:-D

This week’s kit is…

2010-01-24T20:54:00.001-05:00

Adventureland! And here’s today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie from my “MK – Adventureland” kit:

It’s a wooden Tiki embellishment, perfect for accenting your Adventureland layouts – especially those based around the Enchanted Tiki Room, Aloha Isle, or the Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse. ;-)

This embellishment is approximately 2 inches wide by 3.25 inches tall at 300 dpi. You can download the zipped PNG file here. Also note, the file you’ll be downloading will not have any shadows applied to it; I put a shadow on the sample jpg you see up above just for illustrative purposes.

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

And today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie from my “Adventureland – Jungle Cruise” kit will help you do just that!

This set of 4 leather and metal photo corners will be perfect for “holding down” any of the digital photos that you want to add to your Jungle Cruise layouts. Each corner is approximately 1 inch by 1 inch at 300 dpi. You can download the zipped full set of four corners (contained in one PNG file) from here. The image you’ll be downloading will not be shadowed; I added a shadow to the sample file above just for illustrative purposes.

I hope you’ve enjoyed the freebies from this kit as much as I’ve enjoyed creating them for you. I think I’ve had more fun working on this kit than any other one I’ve ever designed so far, lol! That being said, I’ll be offering a new set of freebies next week, so be sure to come back then to see what’s new!

Thanks so much for all of your comments and kind words about my work, too! Some days, they really make a difference in my creative energy! :-)

If you ride the Jungle Cruise at night…

Thanks for all of your wonderful comments of late; I really do appreciate them! (I’m still getting the hang of creating all of these kits – or parts of kits, as it were – and your kind words are definitely inspiration to me! Thanks!

That’s it for today… until tomorrow, remember…

You can download the zipped file from here; I know I was a little late today in getting this freebie posted… it did take me a bit of time today to get the paper just the way I wanted it, but I’m very happy with the results, and hope you are, too!

That’s it for today, until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

Let’s all go on a Jungle Cruise!

2010-01-17T17:14:00.001-05:00

Ahoy,and welcome aboard! Today’s the start of a new week, and as well the start of a new set of Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebies for you! I’m starting with a brand new kit; here’s today’s freebie from my MK – Adventureland – Jungle Cruise kit!

This retro-inspired page topper is a full 12 inches wide by approximately 2 inches tall (300 dpi) and is the perfect topper / title for a Jungle Cruise layout! :-) (While I realize that the current Jungle Cruise boats don’t have striped tops, I just couldn’t resist adding a little nostalgic “tip o’ the hat” to the boats from yesteryear! So, while we have stripes, they’re in the same color scheme as the current boats.) ;-)

You can download the zipped PNG file from here; I hope you enjoy this freebie, and our ride down the various rivers of the Jungle Cruise this week!

Until tomorrow, remember…

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

Fantasyland Brad

2010-01-16T19:52:00.001-05:00

This brad is approximately 1x1 inch square at 300 dpi, and has a Fantasyland star background applied to it. You can download the zipped PNG file from here.

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

Let’s go ride the Teacups!

2010-01-16T00:38:00.001-05:00

Today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie from my MK-Fantasyland kit might make you a little dizzy…

… but I think you’ll still have fun with it on any of your Fantasyland (especially Teacup) digital layouts! 8(:-D

This teacup ride embellishment is a little under 2 x 3 inches at 300 dpi, and you can download the zipped PNG file here.

Another Fantasyland Paper

2010-01-14T20:57:00.001-05:00

Today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie is another 12x12, 300 dpi paper from my MK-Fantasyland kit.

You can download the zipped file from here and I hope you find it really useful for any of your Fantasyland layouts!

I’ll admit, I’ve been somewhat preoccupied by all of the terrible news coming out of Haiti, hence why (I guess) I’m a little short-winded today about scrapping… I want to encourage everyone to do whatever they can to help out with the situation. I know there are a lot of worthy charities out there, and one that I highly recommend is the United Methodist Committee On Relief. 100% of any donation you give to UMCOR goes directly toward the disaster relief, and UMCOR avoids tying the promise of its relief and development activity to any religious or political viewpoint.

I hope nobody minds that I put that link there; I just want to try to do whatever I can to help the people in Haiti – thanks for letting me do so!

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember…

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

What every kingdom needs is…

Here’s today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie for you… a golden crown that you can use to embellish any of your Princess (or even Prince!) pages!

This golden crown embellishment from my “MK-Fantasyland” kit is 300 dpi on a transparent background, and is about 1 inch by 2 inches; you can download the zipped PNG file from here. I hope you like it!

Thanks to everyone for all of your comments; I really appreciate all the great feedback and “love”! :-)

That’s all for today; until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

8(:-D

Here’s a Fantasyland Tag for you!

2010-01-12T17:34:00.001-05:00

Today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie is a little 1 inch by 3 inch (approximate) Cinderella “cardstock” tag from my “MK-Fantasyland” kit.

This little 300 dpi tag has Cinderella’s name applied in gold script, and it has a gold staple to “attach” it to your pages! ;-) You can download the zipped PNG file from here.

A special Fantasyland Banner

2010-01-11T22:00:00.002-05:00

Today’s Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie is a Fantasyland banner / title that you can use at the top of any of your Fantasyland pages:

I’ll admit, it took me awhile today to get this piece finished… but I ended up learning a few new things, so it was a good experience! The banner is basically 12 inches wide by a little less than 2 inches tall (probably closer to 1 inch tall, actually) and the only shadows appear on the overlapping pieces; the large overall shadow shown above is not included in the final piece, just the sample.

You can download the zipped PNG file from here; the PNG is also 300 dpi, as usual. :-)

That’s it for today; until tomorrow, remember:

“It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

8(:-D

We’re moving on to Fantasyland!

2010-01-10T21:08:00.001-05:00

Today’s the start of a new set of Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebies for you… and we’re taking a virtual scrapbooking trip all around the Magic Kingdom – this week’s stop – Fantasyland!

This 12x12 inch, 300 dpi paper reminds me of what Cinderella Castle looks like during the “Kiss Goodnight” after “Wishes” (especially when all the various colored lights are shining on the walls) and I’ve used a lot of the various Princess colors on it (so any of your royal photos will coordinate really well with it!) :-)

You can download the zipped file here; I hope you enjoy it and find it very useful!

That’s all for today… until tomorrow, remember…

”It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

Another Main Street Embellishment

2010-01-09T21:22:00.001-05:00

Here’s another Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie embellishment for you, straight from my “MK – Main Street USA” kit:

This embellishment is a little less than 2x3 inches at 300 dpi; you can download the zipped PNG file from here, and the file you’ll receive will not have any shadows on it (just the sample above) so you can rotate it in any direction and then shadow it, if desired.

I really like this girl; I half expect to hear the Dapper Dans serenading her as she pedals her way up or down Main Street, USA, don’t you? ;-) (By the way, this is the last of the 7 freebies from this kit; tomorrow you’ll get the first of the 7 freebies from my next kit! I’m going to be working my way around the Magic Kingdom for a few weeks, so be sure to stop on by again tomorrow!)

That’s it for today… until tomorrow, remember:

”It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

Here’s another Main Street paper for you

2010-01-08T19:54:00.001-05:00

Here's another Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie for today from my "MK - Main Street, USA" kit!

It’s a 12x12 inch, 300 dpi paper, designed to compliment all of your photos from Main Street, USA. There’s also a damask texture applied to it – I thought it really resembles vintage wallpaper! The downloadable file is not shadowed, just the sample images you see up above. You can download the zipped file from here.

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

How about a Main Street gold “Doo-dad” for you?

2010-01-07T18:07:00.001-05:00

Here’s your Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie for today, coming to you from my current “MK – Main Street USA” kit!

I refer to this as a “Doo-dad” mostly because… I have no idea what to call it! LOL! It’s about 2x2 inches square at 300 dpi, without any shadows applied, and you can download the zipped PNG file from here.

Given its size, you’ll be able to shrink it somewhat if you feel it’s a little big for embellishing your layout page… or keep it just as it is, the choice is yours! :-)

That’s it for today… until tomorrow, remember:

”It’s kind of fun to do the impossible!”

A Main Street Chipboard Accent

2010-01-06T18:58:00.001-05:00

Here's your Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie for today, again from my "MK - Main Street, USA" kit!

A set of photo corners ready for your Main Street photos!

2010-01-05T18:25:00.001-05:00

Here's your Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking freebie for today, straight from my "MK - Main Street, USA" kit!

Each corner in this set is approximately 1 inch by 1 inch at 300 dpi, and the antique gold coloring would fit in perfectly on Main Street, and with any photos you have from there! The downloadable PNG is not shadowed, just the sample image you see up above. You can download the zipped PNG file from here.

By the way, if this posting looks a little different to you today, it’s because I’m creating it with Windows Live Writer… I’m not 100% certain I’ll keep using it, but for now, I’m going to test it out. About the only difference I can see off the bat is that the link to the download won’t be in red… it will be in the default color, which looks like it’s blue (for now, anyway!) Let me know which you prefer. :-)

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

Main Street U.S.A.!

2010-01-04T18:08:00.001-05:00

I don't remember if I've mentioned this here on my blog, let alone made a very big deal about it here, but my all-time, very favorite place in all of WDW is definitely Main Street U.S.A. We've had the privilege of becoming good friends with several of the Castmembers who happen to "live" there, and they are definitely some of the most wonderful people you could ever hope to know! I also just happen to feel like I'm in Walt's presence whenever I step foot there... and yes, I usually get all teary-eyed when I first walk out from under the train station each trip! 8(:-)

Because it's my favorite place in WDW, I decided to choose it as the first location I would highlight with a specific Disney-inspired digital scrapbooking kit... so without further ado, here's the second freebie from that kit, my "MK - Main Street, USA" kit!

It's a brass title (the PNG file is approximately 8x4 inches, 300 dpi) and the shadows only appear on the sample shown here. You can use this as a page title, or shrink it to fit almost any use you can come up with! :-) Download the zipped PNG file from here.

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

I'm Walking Right Down the Middle...

2010-01-03T20:40:00.002-05:00

... of Main Street, USA!

I'm starting out the freebies for my "MK - Main Street, USA" kit with a special paper - it reminds me so very much of the awnings that you see over the shops all along Main Street!

This is a full 12x12 inch, 300 dpi textured paper file. You can download the zipped JPG from here.

I'll be uploading 7 total freebies from this kit during the upcoming week - the rest of the kit will be available for sale at a later date (I'll announce where and when here on the blog!)

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

And again... Merry Christmas!

Happy New Year! (One day late... )

2010-01-02T21:19:00.002-05:00

But better late than never, though, I suppose!

I just want to wish everyone a very Happy 2010, and I also want to keep you up-to-date with what I'll be doing on this blog.

The plan (if everything goes according to the plan, of course!) is that I will still be posting daily freebies for you; the change will be that instead of me giving you a full kit, though, I'll be giving you freebies that are actually a portion of a full kit. The "plan" is that I will be jumping in with both feet (figuratively speaking) and creating kits to sell... and my daily freebies will be a part of each of those kits.

I don't know how long it will take me to design each of the full kits and put them up for sale - I'm entering somewhat uncharted territory here for me - so please bear with me... I'm really new to this and I'm bound to "mess up" (to paraphrase Six Bits Slocum over at "the Hoop Dee Doo Review") from time to time - but nothing ventured, nothing gained, as the saying goes!

Thank you, too, for all of your continued support and wonderful words of encouragement! I truly appreciate every kind word that anyone has left for me; some days, those words really do make a huge difference in how I look at the world! :-D

So, keep an eye peeled... sometime tomorrow, I'll be posting the first of probably 7 freebies from my all-time favorite part of WDW... Main Street, USA!

So until tomorrow, remember...

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

I'm having one of those days...

I really want to do something special to round out not only the December kit, but also to kick off New Years... and I'm just not "getting it." My flow of creativity seems to have come to a screeching halt on this kit for some reason.

I'll keep plugging away at it, but if I'm not satisfied with my results, I won't be posting a freebie today. However, starting in the next few days, I'll be starting a brand new kit - what it is will stay a surprise for now, though!

So have a very Happy New Year, and I hope that 2010 will be a wonderful year for you!

Merry Christmas!

2009-12-25T23:17:00.002-05:00

It's been a very busy week, what with trying to get ready for the holiday, and having this wretched head/chest cold... I've advanced to the coughing/laryngitis stage... fun... NOT! I'm sorry that I didn't have a chance to post this earlier in the day, but family first as they say. :-)

So here it is, without further ado... today's digital scrapbooking freebie from my Disney-inspired "Very Merry Christmas Kit"...

You can download the zipped PNG file from here. This retro-style title is approximately 11 inches by 2 inches. As usual, the shadows only appear on the sample image here on the blog; you can add a shadow to them if you want... or not! ;-)

We're going to be away from here for a few days... and I guess I won't kid myself this time - I probably won't be posting any freebies until early next week. However, I will be adding a few more pieces to the December kit, so don't worry! We're not done yet! ;-)

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

And again... Merry Christmas!

If you've been at WDW this year for the Christmas season...

2009-12-24T16:12:00.002-05:00

... then you might know where I got the inspiration for today's freebies! So, without further ado, here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

We kept seeing the absolutely huge Mickey wreath hanging on the Magic Kingdom side of the Contemporary Resort whenever we were travelling to and from that park... which was at least once a day! 8(:-D Well, I decided, what better freebie to give you for a Christmas kit than a similar Mickey wreath? And of course, I had to give you the lighted version, too! The real-deal was absolutely spectacular to see, especially when it was lit! I hope you can put these versions to good use on your pages!

You can download the files from here. I put both PNG files in one combined zipped file. As usual, the shadows only appear on the sample images here on the blog; you can add a shadow to them if you want... or not! ;-) Oh, and each version of the wreath is about 4 inches wide and 3 inches tall... give or take a bit! (You can downsize them, too, if you need to!)

Thanks, too, for being so understanding with my recent bout with my cold/flu/whatever it is... I wanted to get 2 sets of freebies up today, but with everything else on the go... this will probably be it (unless I get really inspired and throw one up really late tonight/early tomorrow... we'll see!)

Hmmm...

Maybe I shouldn't have said "throw one up" and talking about the flu in the same sentence... lol! (It's okay, I'm not sick in that way!)

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

I hate the flu... or whatever I've got

2009-12-23T20:33:00.002-05:00

It doesn't look good for me to get any freebies up at this point today, and I want to apologize for that. I've been (literally) in bed for most of the past 24 hours, trying to beat this thing into submission (who really enjoys being sick in the 1st place, but at Christmas!!!! That's just adding insult to injury!)

I'll see if I can post a couple of times tomorrow to make up for it; we have no obligations until evening, when we'll (hopefully!) be singing in the choir at our 11:00 service... Brian's got this bug, too, so keep your fingers crossed for both of us.

Thanks so much for your patience and understanding! You guys (gals, mostly!) are great!

A couple of sweet Mickeys

2009-12-22T18:39:00.002-05:00

Here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

One of the decorations we saw at the Magic Kingdom last week was some peppermint candies in the classic Mickey shape... so I figure why not make some freebies along that line! They're both about 2 inches square (give or take) and you can use them to embellish your Disney scrapbook pages however you like! 8(:-D

You can download the files from here. I put both PNG files in one combined zipped file. Also, the shadows only appear on the sample images here on the blog; you can add a shadow to them if you want... or not! ;-)

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Two "Pop"ish Stars for you!

2009-12-21T16:14:00.001-05:00

Here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

When I started working on today's freebies, I was instantly reminded of Disney's Pop Century Resort... and maybe the Contemporary Resort, too... both places are a little funky and retro in their design... as are these two freebies! (I just wish I could have been instantly transported back to Pop! LOL!) They're both about 2 inches square (give or take a smidge) and you can use them to embellish your Disney scrapbook pages however you see fit! 8(:-D

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Two alphas for you!

2009-12-20T18:05:00.001-05:00

Here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

I'm giving you two alphas today, one red-based, the other green, both with glittery edges to add that holiday sparkle and "pizazz" to your pages! ;-)

You can download the files from here. I put both 300-dpi PNG files in a combined zipped file and other than a very small shadow on the glitter layer, the shadows only appear on the sample images here on the blog; you can add a shadow to them if you want... or not! ;-)

A great big "Thank You!" to everyone for the recent glowing compliments! I truly appreciate all of your kind words; they really do give me a lot of inspiration to keep plugging away at these freebies! Again, THANK YOU! 8(:-D

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

A tag for both coasts!

2009-12-19T19:15:00.001-05:00

Here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

I decided that I should include something for both Walt Disney World and Disneyland (especially since it all started there!) So I figured I'd give you a couple of tags with both parks included... a great way to easily journal whichever location you happen to be scrapping! 8(:-D

You can download the files from here. I put both PNG files in a combined zipped file and the shadows only appear on the sample image here on the blog; you can add whatever shadows (or not) as you want!

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Time for some really "sweet" freebies! ;-)

2009-12-18T17:10:00.001-05:00

Here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

While we were down at WDW last week, I kept a "lookout" for ideas that I might want to include with this kit. One common element that seemed to be popping up here and there were candy canes... so I just couldn't resist throwing in a few for you here! (I also wanted to add a little "Disney-inspiration" to them, so I threw in the holly/berries from a few weeks ago on the double "heart" candy canes!)

You can download the files from here. I went ahead and put them in a combined zipped file since none of the three of them were extremely large files to begin with. And, the shadows only appear on the sample image here on the blog; the only shadows on the PNG files themselves are on the heart canes, and just to add dimension and depth between the holly and the two canes; you can add whatever shadows (or not) as you deem fit!)

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

These freebies were a bit of a challenge!

2009-12-17T17:23:00.003-05:00

Here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

I decided to really challenge myself today, and attacked the illusive creativity bug head-on by creating these two shiny Mickey-themed ornaments. Since I wanted to give you two freebies, I decided to make one without any writing on it, and the other with "Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party" in white "puffy" painted writing.

You can download the files from here. I put them in a combined zipped file since neither of them were extremely large files to begin with.

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Some seasonal mulberry papers for you!

2009-12-16T17:30:00.002-05:00

Here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

These are two seasonal-colored mulberry style papers, both 12x12 inches and 300 dpi.

You can download the files from here and here. I put them in separate zip files due to their combined size.

Also, thanks so very much for your patience while I was down at WDW! I'm slowly getting back to the swing of things... next thing you know, it's going to be Christmas! 8(:-D

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

The passing of Roy E. Disney

2009-12-16T17:10:00.005-05:00

I'll be posting my freebies later today (the upload is going very slowly for some reason) but I just had to voice my sadness at the passing today of Roy E. Disney, the son of Roy O. and nephew of Walt.

I'm so very sad over this news; the only real consolation I feel right now is that this didn't happen while we were down at WDW last week - I don't know if I could handle being there during this time, and I have Roy's family as well as all of the Disney Castmembers around the world in my thoughts and prayers right now... they truly are one huge family, and this news must be next to unbearable for them, as well.

One thing I am very grateful for... nearly six years ago, (through a mutual friend) I sent Roy a "digital watercolor" print I had created of his father's statue (the one where Roy's sitting on the bench with Minnie, normally seen at the base of Main Street, USA...) Well, several weeks later, I received a thank you letter from Roy, and it's among my most prized possessions now. I had a copy of the print and the letter and envelope professionally framed, and the message he wrote has served as an inspiration for me many times during the past five plus years.

I never got to meet him (one of my deep regrets) but I will always feel a connection to him through knowing how much he appreciated my artwork - and I will always appreciate the love he had for both the Disney company and the entire Disney family, Castmembers and actual family alike.

Finally! Back home and back with the Freebies!

2009-12-15T18:10:00.002-05:00

What is it they say about hindsight? Yeah, it's 20/20... and in hindsight, I really should have realized that I wasn't going to be successful at uploading (or working on) my freebies while down at WDW last week. Sigh... seems like we were out the door of our room at Pop at the crack of dawn, and didn't return until nearly (or after, even!) midnight the entire week! That's one good thing about having a tween and a teen now - they don't tend to wear out as early as they used to! LOL!

Well, as I promised last week, I'm going to get caught up with these freebies by giving you 2 each day... maybe I'll just continue it for the whole month at this point! (I'm still recovering from the week @ WDW plus the drives down and back, so it may be a couple days until I get my designing "mojo" back!)

Here are today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebies from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

These two glittered Mickey head ornaments are companion pieces to the red one I uploaded earlier... I hope you like them!

You can download the files from here. I've put both files into one zipped file; neither ornament has shadows applied; just the samples here on my blog.

Thanks so very much for your patience while I was away! 8(:-D

(So what's the worst thing about coming home from WDW for us? The change in temperature! It was in the 80s on Sunday when we started back home... and right now, it's only 21 here in Indiana! Brrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!)

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

As I promised yesterday... here's 2 Freebies for you!

2009-12-06T22:55:00.004-05:00

Here's today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download (and you get 2 since I didn't upload one yesterday!):

It looks like I'm starting a bit of a theme here... I've got 2 "funky stars" pieces for you; one is a 12x12, 300 dpi paper, and the other is a felted Mickey head in the same pattern.

You can download the files from here. I've put both files into one zipped file; the felted Mickey head does not have any shadows applied to it; just the sample on here on my blog.

I have a feeling that I'll be uploading files on and off here... We'll have internet access for most of the time, but I really hate to pay for it every day when we're hardly going to be in the room! So, if I do miss a day, I'll get you caught up, don't worry! :-D

Thanks so very much for your patience and comments! 8(:-D

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Just a note today... 2 freebies will come tomorrow!

2009-12-05T23:27:00.002-05:00

I wanted to let you know that I won't be posting a freebie today, but I will have a couple to put up for you tomorrow. It's been a long day on the road, and I just now remembered I didn't put anything up! (I swear my brain is fried this week from lack of sleep or just the chaotic schedule I've been keeping!)

We have another road-trip day tomorrow, but it will be easier to do some work on my netbook at that time (today it just wasn't going to happen...) and I'll upload a couple freebies for you once we get to Pop!

Thanks for your patience! 8(:-D

Until then, remember...

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Here's a Snowflake Tag for you!

2009-12-04T16:11:00.002-05:00

Here's today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

It's a little Mickey-Snowflake felted "gift tag" embellishment that you can use on all of those Disney-gift-opening photo layouts from Christmas morning! ;-)

You can download the file from here. It's a 300-dpi PNG file and it does not have any shadows applied to the image.

Just a "heads up" message now... we will be travelling and down at WDW for the next week-and-a-bit... so I have no idea how often I will be posting my freebies. I plan on posting daily, but given that my "plans" often seem to go awry... well... if I don't have a freebie posted one day, I'll probably give you two the next! Sound fair?

Thanks so much for hanging in there with me! (I've never tried to keep up with my freebies and be away from home! Yeah, I'm nervous! LOL!)

8(:-D

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Haul out the Holly... 8(:-D

2009-12-03T17:27:00.002-05:00

Here's today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

I made this little Mickey-berried Holly sprig as an add-on to our Very Merry Christmas Party t-shirts that we'll be wearing next week at the Magic Kingdom, so I thought I'd share it with you, too! 8(:-D

You can download the file from here. It's a 300-dpi PNG file (it's supposed to look like it's made out of felt) that's about 3.5 x 5 inches, and it does not have any shadows applied to the image.

My, oh, my... there just aren't enough hours in the day! I have *SO* much to do before we leave on Saturday!!! (Proverbial chicken time!)

8(:-D

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

8(:-D

Here's today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my "Very Merry Christmas Kit", ready for download:

You can download this title from here. It's a 300-dpi PNG file, not shadowed, and I think you're really going to get a kick out of it and the other freebies that I'll be posting this month! I'm really excited about it (December is one of my all-time-favorite months of the year!) even though it's going to be a hectic month for me. We're actually going to be going down to WDW next week (I'm still packing... and panicking, LOL!) so my freebies may be coming to you at all hours... even worse than usual, LOL! Well, that's what happens when you're down at WDW... the time gets away from you! (That's why I'm doing my best to work ahead on some of these freebies!)

And a huge THANK YOU for all of the oh-so-wonderful comments this week! I'm so very, VERY thankful for all of you, and your comments really do lift my spirits so many times! Thank You! 8(:-D

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

The final "Pretty as a Princess" freebie...

2009-11-30T18:29:00.002-05:00

Here's today's Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie from my "Pretty as a Princess Kit", ready for download:

I decided to end this month's freebie kit with this "blingy" title for you... summing up the whole Princess theme!

You can download this title from here. It's a 300-dpi PNG file, not shadowed, and I hope you've enjoyed all of the Princess freebies this month. I will probably work up some Prince-ly items for sometime early in the new year (especially for those of you without any Princesses in your households!) I also plan to "flesh out" all of these recent kits, and begin to offer full-size kits on my Etsy page... but it's going to take awhile until I get to that point, so you have something to look forward to in the New Year!

Tomorrow is the 1st of December... almost impossible to believe! And to celebrate the spirit of the season... I'm starting a brand-new batch of freebies for you for the entire month of December, all with a Disney-inspired Christmas/Winter Holidays theme!

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

I decided to add this on to the Princess kit... even though, I suppose, technically... it should be in a Witches or Villain kit! ;-)

You can download this title from here. It's a 300-dpi PNG file, not shadowed, and I hope you like it for, perhaps, some Evil Queen pages you might have - or will be working on in the future!

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember:

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"

Final Sleeping Beauty Freebie

Here's your Disney-inspired digital scrapbook freebie for today; the last item in this week's Sleeping Beauty portion of my "Pretty as a Princess Kit" - a glittered vellum crown embellishment!

You can download today's file here; you'll get a 300-dpi PNG file that's approximately 2.5 inches in both directions... and there's a slight transparency to the vellum, so you'll see through it to whatever you layer it onto!

That's it for today... until tomorrow, remember...

Sleeping Beauty bottlecap!

2009-11-20T13:50:00.003-05:00

Yes, today's Disney-inspired digital scrapping freebie is a Sleeping Beauty inspired bottlecap that is part of my "Pretty as a Princess Kit."

You can download the zipped 300-dpi PNG file from here; I hope you like it!

I've had a lot of fun designing this kit so far... I'll be honest, tho... it has been a bit of a challenge, because I've never (ever!) been what I'd call a "girly-girl" - LOL! (I was definitely a Tomboy growing up... I more often played with cars and boy "stuff" with my older brother than Barbies or girl toys with my older sister! I really had to get in touch with my feminine side with this kit!!!)

I hope it's meeting your expectations! :-)

Until tomorrow, remember...

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible!"
