Friday Friday Part 2

Did you get the freebie last week?  I For some reason, Live Writer and Blogger didn't play nice so that post has disappeared but I have another freebie to share with you today.  More candy bar wrappers in a different design.  Just print, cut and wrap for a special treat or party favor.

Click the preview below before March 28 to get this great freebie.



These candy bar wrappers can be used in My Memories Suite digital scrapbooking software or in any other image editing program.  To use in My Memories Suite follow these steps:

Open the program and set your album size to 8.5 x 11.  Add the candy bar wrapper to your page. Add personalization with your text tool if you want or use as is.  Next choose SHARE ALBUM => EXPORT PAGES from the menu and save as a .jpg  The new .jpg papers you created are now usable as stand alone printable projects to use and reuse anytime!

Aren’t familiar with My Memories Suite? It’s the BEST digital scrapbooking software I have ever seen and because you have visited my blog today, you can get $10 off when you buy the software at MyMemories.com if you simply use code STMMMS30070 at the checkout.  It’s easy to get started with this program and there are lots of tutorials on the site.  Click through the freebie above to find out about ordering. Check it out or tell your friends today!

Menu Planner Error

My apologies to everyone who got the Menu Plan Monday post in their email or RSS this morning.  That was an improperly scheduled blog post in my transition to a new blogging location and it isn't ready for download yet (but it will be soon!!)  Please excuse the inconvenience and dust around here.  Have a great day~

Digitals Store Closing Sale

While I’ve been on hiatus from designing, I have been rethinking some things about my life, how I spend my time and what my business goals are for Christine Smith Digital Design.  Some of the introspection was painful and some was freeing.  Beginning in April, I will be heading in a little bit different direction with my designs and my site.  That means closing the door on some things while opening up to my new plan. I have closed my store at ScrapDish, have arranged to leave With Love Studios. I am also closing up shop at Digitals. The only store with a good-bye sale will be Digitals so I just wanted to let you all know it’s a good time to get a deal on everything there.  Here are the details:

I hope you will all stay tuned for some new content and inspiration coming April 1.  In the meantime, I will be busy behind the scenes.  I have learned to move a mouse with my left hand, which is a big deal since I couldn’t even butter bread left-handed when I first fractured my wrist!  So I’ll be busy and am excited to show you some great stuff this spring.

Thanks for reading.

Best Sellers Sale

It’s tax preparation time and as I was compiling my records from my store, I took a peek into my best sellers report.  Of course, freebies were a big part of the top 10 digital scrapbooking items downloaded from christinesmith.net but there were other things that were very popular since the beginning of 2011.  So I’m marking my 5 best sellers 33% off for one week and sharing them here with you. Sale ends March 8.

Shop for all these specials HERE.

 

#1 – Scrabble Tile Alpha

Here it is as part of a title on page made with My Haircut

#2 Crabby Appleton

For fall layouts or one where you want to use an almost monochromatic color scheme in reds and orange.

Here’s a digital scrapbooking page I did – this is my husband and his mom.

#3 – Custom Creases

A cool tool for personal use or commercial use / CU (also S4H/S4O) – these .png creases allow you to make almost anything look like you folded it or creased it and open it back up again.  I LOVE these things.

Here are some samples of what this product will do

#4 – Digital Scrapbook Basics Black Kit

A great monochromatic kit that’s really good for formal occasions.

here’s a LO using Black Basics and Earthy Remix

#5 – Gone Fishing

One of my personal favorites because we go fishing almost every week in the summer.  While we don’t own a boat, there are several places we can access a large lake in the area and fish from fishing piers.

Here a great layout by my new CT Jennifer Houmani

New Collection and Hiatus

I have some new digital scrapbooking products in the store at christinesmith.net.  Unfortunately, these will probably be the only thing new you will see from me for a little while because I have a fractured wrist and will be in a cast for six weeks. It’s my right hand so using the computer mouse is pretty awkward!  I will be using my time off the get my tax stuff together and organize some stuff around the house and on my computer.  Nothing like a little forced down time!  Well, I have some things I’ve been wanting to read, too so it’s all good.  So here’s what’s new and on sale right now for 25% off:

the bundle is only $7.49 right now – save $10!!
