Wow.. tonight is my 99th post!  That means that tomorrow will be the 100th – the day I wanted to do something special.  Well, tomorrow I am posting 2 kits for blog trains since it’s March 1st — so, look for my 100th post party later in the week

Today I am sharing the 3rd layered, psd file, CU tree.  Hope you have enjoyed these!  I think I will take them down this weekend and post them in the stores – so snag them while they are free

The first things I want to do tonight is thank Penni from GalimaufryUK and 2 Twisted Sisters for the great blog awards they have given me in the past few weeks!  Thanks girls – ya’ll rock – what an honor!

The both awarded me with the PREMIO DARDOS AWARD.  “The PREMIO DARDOS AWARD”acknowledges the value of every blogger shows in their effort to transmit cultural, ethical, literacy and personal values everyday.

The rules are:
1. Accept the award, post it in your blog together with the name of person granted the award and his or her blog link.

2. Past the award to 15 other blogs that are worthy of this acknowledgment. Remember to contact them to let them know they have been chosen for this award’

It’s always so hard to decide who to pass these on to – there are so many wonderful bloggers out there that I read often. This time I decided to pass it on to those folks who leave me wonderful comments when they download -ya’ll are awesome – and have some great blogs! Some are other designers (with some wonderful freebies!) and some are scrappers with some really nice layouts on their pages – but they all are AWESOME bloggers because they leave love Thanks gals – ya’ll rock!

For tonight’s freebie I have another layered psd tree.  Hope you can use it! Once again – it’s a layered psd file – 300 dpi.  It’s larger than shown to make it very versatile  and easy to resize.

I am not sure what’s up with Digifree – I’m back to 1.5 stars even though I have their link in my side bar!  So, I am adding this as an experiment   I have been as high as 3.5 stars… so, trying to figure out what’s causing it to freak out!  If you have never been to Digifree make sure to check them out- they have an awesome digi scrabooking freebie search daily! Alos, if anyone has hints on how to become a Google authority site I’d love to hear them!

I have several things to tell you about tonight.  First of all, there is a great sale going on at The Creativity Box.  It’s store wide and from 25% upwards.  All my stuff is 25% off.

Also, I added 3 new overlay sets this weekend to both of the stores I sell at.  I really love the Shabby Overlays – I think it’s my favorite set so far!  One of the overlays makes a fantastic bark texture.  Some of the others have a nice, light texture that really makes a wonderful soft look.

You can purchase these at Michelle’s Angels or The Creativity Box.  They are normally $2.50 a set, but with the sale at The Creativity Box, they are $1.88!  That’s less than 40 cents an overlay!

Now, finally, tonight’s freebie!  Today I played around making trees for the ADSD Spring Things Collab.  I decided to package up the layered files and sell them.  But, I’m going to offer them here a few days free first   So, here is the first one tonight.  They are bigger than shown and can easily be resized smaller for your pages.  (That way you can have your choice of size without losing any quality) This one tonight also comes with a bonus file – the layered felt and button piece – so, you can use it as a flower or page element!  Just use the paint bucket in your pallet colors on the marked layers and save – it’s really easy!  The layer blend modes are already set -but change those and you can create an entirely different look. These files are 300 dpi, psd files.  (Note – psd files are large – This is a 34 meg download – so, even though there are only 4 files in the zip – tou, preview, layered tree, bonus felt/button piece – it’s still a large download!)

Tonight’s post is my 90th!  At post 100 I want to do something special – so, I need to come up with an idea

Last night I got my Playtime kit posted at both stores I sell at – Michelle’s Angels and The Creativity Box.  I am in the process of uploading my re-done Green With Envy Kit.  It was one of the first kits I did and I am amazed at how far I have come!  I was very unhappy with several of the kit elements – so, I tweaked them.  I will have that kit available in the stores in the next few days.  So, just a reminder that I am slowly taking down my older freebies that I have posted here– so, snag them now!  While I feel the 4shared issue appears to be resolved, I do need to manage my upload space options.

I also am still looking for a CT team – come on guys!  I need some of you.  You get free kits and CU items.. I know the right folks are out there!  Also, Michelle’s Angels is looking for a store CT team – please see the details in the ad below.

Ok… glad you stuck with me and made it this far!  There IS a freebie   Tonight I was playing around and came up with some layered .psd files for curly ribbons.  There are 3 layers – the ribbon layer, the recolor layer, and the custom shadow.  I also included the .png files of the grayscale ribbons for those without the ability to open a .psd file.  These are CU – so add them to your kits – just don’t sell them as a CU item without some creative additions.  You will notice on the sidebar I added a TOU link.  I hope to add my TOU there in the next few days – I just need to remember when I have time.  (The kids tend to side track me!)
