Goodbye, for now

islandgirldesigns — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 09:11:41 +0000

As much as I regret having to write this post, the time has come for me to make this announcement. Due to severe computer problems, I will no longer be able to continue designing. In fact, I may lose my ability to go online all together in the near future. I have made some amazing friends online so of course this is devastating to me. I apologize for the short notice. My Moo Two store will be closed probably by morning and my DID store will be turned off on Dec. 15. So if there is anything of mine that you have been wanting, you should get it now. I have no idea if or when I’ll be able to return to digiscrap designing.

Thank you all so much for your support and encouragement the last couple of months. It has meant the world to me.

Happy DSD!!

Well, today is the big day and boy do I have a big freebie for you. 4 Glamorous QP’s! They will be available today only. Tomorrow they will go into my Moo Two and DID stores, so if you like ‘em, DL ‘em quick

*Download has expired*

And don’t forget to drop by DID and take part in our scavenger hunt. Take my word for it, you do NOT want to miss this kit. It is divine and so incredibly versatile! While there, check out what everyone has to offer. The entire store is 50% off. And don’t forget about the huge DST scavenger hunt as well. I took part in that one, too, and my contribution is pretty cute, if I do say so myself lol

I think that’s about it. Have fun!

Freebie #3

Again I’m gonna have to make this a short post. There never seems to be enough time in the day lol Here is your Friday Freebie. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it for you!

And here is a LO I did with it. A friend was nice enough to let me borrow a pic of her daughter since mine is going through a “no pic” phase lol

Don’t forget about all the festivities going on tomorrow at DID and Moo Two. We really hope to see you there!

DSD sale and some LO’s

It’s time to let the cat out of the bag. As I’ve already mentioned, I will be releasing my 2 new kits on DSD. What I didn’t mention is that they will both be on sale for one day only for $1 each!! I’ve also got some awesome LO’s to share with you to give you some inspiration and to show how versatile these kits can be.

Freebie #2

islandgirldesigns — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 05:15:44 +0000

Today I have another “A Boy’s World” freebie for you. This one is a set of 5 crumpled papers. This has to be a quick post, but tomorrow I hope to post with more news of the DSD goings on at DID, a sneak peak of the fabulous DID treasure hunt kit, New Beginnings and of course another freebie.

Have a good night!

A little sneak peak

islandgirldesigns — Wed, 29 Oct 2008 10:48:02 +0000

I have a little goody for you today. I initially was going to offer a freebie a day leading up to DSD but you know how life has a nasty way of ruining your plans. But better late than never, right? lol So here we have a QP made by one of DID’s talented CT girls, Janie (aka Scrapastrophe). It is made using my new boy kit, A Boy’s World that I will be releasing on Saturday. Inside the zip you will find a full preview of the kit, so if you’re curious, download it and take a peak!

DSD plans?

islandgirldesigns — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 10:24:43 +0000

If not, great. If so, cancel them. Designs In Digital is gonna be THE place to be. Not only are we participating in the huge DST treasure hunt, but we’ve got a hunt of our own. That’s right, two (2) free hugemongous kits can be yours on DSD! And let me just tell you, you’re not gonna want to miss our special collab, New Beginnings. The color palette (picked by yours truly ) is to die for. The ad below is a little hint. Read on for more details.

We are gearing up for 2 fantastic treasure hunts on November 1st! A lot of our designers here have decided to participate in a HUGE treasure hunt that will have you hopping from store to store collecting pieces to a GIGANTIC free Mega Collaboration! You are not going to want to miss all the fabulous pieces to this kit! The only way to get what we’ve made by following the trail of clues and collecting the pieces on Saturday, November 1st!

And if that isn’t enough the designers here are also having a separate hunt running that will have you looking for download links in the blog, the store, the gallery and the forum! I am so excited about this! The Mega Kit you will be collecting pieces for is FABULOUS! The links for the DID hunt will only be available on November 1st. So this awesome Mega kit from the DID designers will only be free for 1 day only! After that the only way to get it will be to purchase it in the store.

While you are collecting all your pieces, make sure you check out the fantastic sales you can find in the store! Remember to mark your calendars for November 1st! This will be a lot of fun!

I also have a few goodies of my own cooked up. I will be releasing at least two new kits (1 boy, 1 girl) for an unbelievably low price for one day only and will have coordinating freebies here on my blog. I guarantee you will NOT want to miss out on this special day! Stay tuned for more details!

Are you ready to party?

islandgirldesigns — Wed, 15 Oct 2008 09:00:19 +0000

The contestants of this years Stone Accents Studios designer contest are throwing a party and you are cordially invited lol Coordinated by Nani of The Chronicles of Nani, we have quite a special treat for all of you. Each participant has prepared a little goody and they are all listed in one place with previews to make DL’ing easier. Here’s my contribution:

You can pick those up here and here.

You can check out what everyone else has to offer by going here!

Along Came A Spider

islandgirldesigns — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 01:01:04 +0000

I’m releasing a new kit into my stores today called Along Came A Spider. Of course it’s Halloween themed and I also have some cute freebies for you!

First a preview:

You can pick it up at Moo Two or DID.

And now for your freebies, we have a coordinating paper pack:

And 2 QP’s:

You can download those here. Don’t forget to leave some love.

I also added these to my DID store. You can find them in our new $1 bin.

They’re perfect for adding a special date to our layouts. The preview came out really crappy when I resized it, but I promise they look better in person lol

That’s it for now. Take care!
