New Products, My Friend Janice's Bloggy Anniversary Giveaway Contest, A Free Element!

Things have been piling up for me so I thought I'd better get blogging here!  The first item on my list are two new products which I've got up in the Scrapbook-Elements Store.   The first one is my contribution to a "project" of sorts which most of the designers from the store team up to do.  This is a UBI - meaning U Build It.  We each go with the theme, which happens to be Vintage Fleamarket and then we all submit paper or element packs in that theme with a color scheme in common.  I must say all the entries are lovely.  The best part - all these items are priced at $1 or $2 and so you can mix and match for just a few dollars to build a custom kit for yourself. 

This is my little contribution - you can visit the store link HERE and check out all the other wonderful pieces to this kit! 

And next, I have "launched" these unique and fun elements - my Balloon Festival elements set.  These will be perfect to lift your favorite craft projects or digital layouts "up, up and AWAY!" 

You can find these "uplifting" elements by clicking HERE.

And so that you could see how these balloons could be used in a project I created a card with one on it.  (I printed one off).

 And I want to tell you what I've been up to thats been keeping me so busy.  I've been developing our women's church blog site, adding all sorts of new features and pages and you may want to check it out.  I'd LOVE it if you would even leave a comment if you are so inclined!  Besides the regular great and inspiring content I've been creating some FREE scripture wallpapers for your computer and this is the latest:

These wallpapers are available on the OCC Women's Blog site, click HERE, click on the GALLERY tab at the top and you will find this and other wallpapers.  Please, send your friends, recommend us on facebook, twitter etc!  And while you are there, if you love music and would like to check out a fresh and amazing new talent you will want to click on the MUSIC tab and listen to Pheonix sing "You Raise Me Up" - lets let this young man know what you think of his voice!  

My friend Janice, who I introduced a while ago, is a photographer and she has now has had 1,000 pageviews and she wants to celebrate by giving away a gift!  I'm not going to ruin her surprise - you just scoot on over to her blog and check it out.  Click HERE!  Congrats Janice!  

Finally, last but not least I thought since it has been a while since I gave anything away I'd best leave you with a little reward for your time here.  It's a little crown element, I used the element a few posts ago on a "Queen for a Day" card so I cut extracted it for YOU!
