Hi guys!

Well, what do you know, I seem to have taken a liking to huge blog posts coupled with Sunshine Freebie Blog Trains! Today’s theme is Easter, and we’ve lovingly called it Sunrise Sorbet. BUT – there’s always a but, isn’t there? — I’m going to make you suffer through my new collection and my exciting news first! No gorgeous LOs this time around (although I might come back and edit the post with them) because my poor abused CT had no idea this collection was done. I hope they know I love them dearly, even though I’m a scatterbrained idiot!

Anyway, exciting news: I’m guesting this month at SO! Not only that, but it’s the Orchard’s 2nd birthday, and there’s a huge storewide sale of 35% which — you guessed it! — means my new collection, Secret Labyrinth, is even further discounted than usual! I really loved making this one, despite having ran out of time at least 5 different times – scatterbrained idiot, anyone?

Once more I went and made a kit, borders, and a separate alpha. The incomparable Amanda Kay made me a set of the most stunning QPs you’ll ever see, and I also made my usual cu plastic and cu plastic glitter styles. And, of course, it wouldn’t be complete without a bundle and a mega bundle! Oh! And there’s the cutest hybrid bag ever, made by Amanda as well, which you can either purchase on its own or receive for free with your purchase of either the kit, the bundle or the mega bundle.

Welcome guys! Today I have a huge post for you, topped of with a good old fashioned Sunshine Blog Train Freebie.

First I’d love to show you my newest collection, Indomitable. It’s pretty much my pride and joy at the moment, LOL, lots of things in it that are just “me”! Indomitable has a kit, an alpha bundle, borders, an album, flair, plastic styles, plastic glitter styles, a bundle, a mega bundle and, best of all, when you buy any of the bundles, for a limited time only, you get Rock On completely free! (Indomitable was going to have been Rock On 2, but as you can see it gained a life of its own):

Just look at what my CT did with it, aren’t they awesome?

There’s a bundle, with no Photoshop Styles:

And a Mega Bundle with the whole shebang!

And now hop aboard the Sunshine Blog Train for Shamrock, our St. Patty’s freebie. This blog train has a bunch of the old crown, except for Nicole, who really couldn’t make it. Megs is doing it, as usual, Ziska is doing it, Allie is doing it, it’s just really like old days (minus Nicole – I miss you, you hear me?? Work less!!) Your next stop is Teri’s blog and, if you get lost along the way, visit Sun’s blog for a complete list. Also, please remember, the Sunshine Girls are all in different time zones, so if their portion of the train isn’t up yet, don’t despair, it’ll be there later on!

Hi guys! I got a few comments from people who were on dial-up and so couldn’t really deal with the huge files that I made for WW2, and I also got some of you saying you couldn’t download the quickpage. The QP is a png, not a zip file. So, when you clicked it, it would open the png in a new window and you’d have to right click and Save As. I can see how this might have caused some confusion, lol, so here’s a hopefully confusion-free zip version, along with apropriately manageable (I hope!) files for the dial-up people. Hope this helps and, if you need them even smaller, let me know and I’ll split them further!

| Papers | Elements |  Alpha | Quick Page | Square Mat 1 | Square Mat 2 | Square Mat 3 | Round Mats |

Remember the original Whimsical Wonderland? (If you don’t, click here, most of the downloads should still be active.) Well, I blinked and, suddenly, it’s been a year already! I’m pretty sure it can’t have been, but the calendar seems to be decided to disabuse me of that notion, so the Sunshine Girls and Guy decided to celebrate the occasion by making Whimsical Wonderland 2. Where is it, you ask? Well, I’m going to be mean and force you to do some scrolling (or – gasp! – actually look at my new products) before giving you the preview and links. But, even before the new products, I’m going to hook you up with the previous days’ downloads!

Daily Update:

Day1: Day2: Day3:

Day4: Day5: Day6:

Day7: Day8: Day 9:

Day 10:

And now for the new products! First off there’s Nameless: the album. Bec, Shadow Mistress Extraordinaire, has been at it again and played with my Nameless kit to put together this stunning album. Bec, if you’re reading this, I love you!

Then there’s set 2 of Double Jeopardy. This one is Christmas themed and I’ve named it Double Jeopardy: Holiday Edition. Seven Christmas 24″x12″ papers, to make seamless double page LOs.

And now, finally, Whimsical Wonderland 2, for your downloading pleasure!

Whimsical Wonderland 2A | Whimsical Wonderland 2B

And a Whimsical Wonderland 2 Quick Page!

I hope you enjoy your freebie! Aaand tomorrow’s stop will be…

Hi guys! Long time no post (and I still owe you that freebie, plus my birthday was yesterday, ack, I suck, lol! It’ll come here… I just need to learn how to be a well-behaved, organized girl! Ok, scratch that, we all know you’ll be waiting forever if you’re waiting for me to become well-behaved, I’ll just have to make do with less disorganized, lol!)!

Aaaanyway, I’m having a Black Friday going on right now! 50% off EVERYTHING, including CU. Wow, that’s two 50% off sales I’ve had in a month, take your chance if you want something now, guys, I don’t plan on repeating the stunt this year!

And, I have a new kit and matching addon coming tomorrow! (If you’re a newsletter subscriber, then you’ve had the chance to buy it since yesterday, of course) Look at Prestige:

And Holiday Prestige:

I’m pretty please with these, what do you think? This was actually supposed to have been a soft, dreamy kit I promised Megs I’d do, and then black just sort of slipped in and, before I knew it, the only requirement I’d managed to fulfill was the no grunge one, LOL.

Will you guys help me out? What would you like to see next? That soft dreamy kit and then a grungy one, or the other way around? I’d love it if you could leave me a comment and let me know!

Hi guys!

Whew, it’s been ages again, hasn’t it? I don’t even know where to start!

Ok, first of all, you’ve probably noticed the new look! It’s to celebrate my first blogoversary, I started my blog on Halloween night 2007 with an alpha freebie, parchment alpha. The graphics of my brand new blog and website were made by my amazing friend Megs, who my husband likes to call No Less Than Flergs. Isn’t she awesome? Yes, I think so too!

So, while you’re drooling over my Flergs-made graphics, you might feel an inexplicable urge to move your mouse to the left and insert your email in that first box there that says “e-mail”. Yes, the newsletter one, that’s right! It gives you access to a ton of things, like freebies, early releases, discount coupons, the works.

Speaking of discounts, I’m having a Blogoversary&DSD Sale! 50% off everything, including CU, and, if you spend $15 or more in my Studio, I’ll email you a coupon to get my brand new kit, Strange Days, for free!

(Ignore the bit where it says “discount shown at checkout”, I got off my lazy butt and made it so you’d all be able to see the discount immediately. Both promotions – 50% off and free kit with a $15 purchase – are on NOW and are cumulative! You can click the add to be transported to my studio, or you can look at the free kit in more detail:

And a matching alpha pack:

Here are 2 Los, by Bec and Whit, to help you see the possibilities:

Next on the menu is the CT Blog! Yes, I have a CT Blog now, have had it for weeks, actually, but have been shamefully remiss in posting about it, despite Melissa’s not-so-subtle spanks. She should have just called me an idiot, lol, because that’s what I am for not telling you about it sooner! Anyway, there are new fun filled posts every day, interviews, competitions, prizes and, most of all, general insanity @ www.mglscraps.com/ctblog

In the spirit of it being my first blogoversary, I plan on having a new freebie for you tomorrow, plan being the operative word. Knowing me, it’s more likely to be Saturday, but drop by anyway, you never know, I might actually meet at least one of my self imposed deadlines!

Wow, you stuck with me throughout this entire post??? You deserve a reward! How about a Blog Train freebie?
See my purdy door? Nett made it all purdy for me, because I’ve been so scattered I didn’t even get around to doing that. Ack! Anyway, the plan was you guys clicking the door and getting the freebie. However, in this case, it’s just here because it’s sexy and it does what it wants!

Freebie, Individual Characters
Freebie, Full Sheets

The truth of the matter is, I was that I was assigned an alpha, and so, as usual for all those that are cut and named by Megs’ invaluable Alpha Maker action, it comes both in individual characters and in full sheets. So, what I did is, I added those two lonely papers to both downloads, one has the characters, the other one the sheets, and you can click the respective link to choose which one you want!

What? What’s inside the door, er, links? Well, this is, how do you like it?

And you can find the next freebie @ Mimi’s blog
Don’t panic if the freebies aren’t up yet, we’re all in different time zones, they’ll show up, I promise! If you get lost on the hunt, visit this thread @ Sun to get the full list of links!

Happy Halloween, I wish you lots and lots of spanks – no, seriously, I do! – and stay tuned for scenes from our next episode! (Preferably tomorrow!)

Hi everyone!

It’s time for another Sunshine Girls (and Guy, can’t forget my hubby!) freebie collab! Squeeeee!!! This time around it’s called Mango Tango, and I’ll show you my preview and give you my link in a minute.
Before that let me just spill what I’ve been dying to say: we ended up adding not one, not 5, not even 10 but 11 (eleven!) great new designers to Sunshine Studio! Can I get a giant mega squee???
Who are they, you ask? Well, their shops will be going live on Friday, but they’re contributing to Mango Tango as well, so you’ll get a sneak peek sooner! Just drop by the Sunshine Studio blog to be directed to their individual blogs and download their shares of Mango Tango! And don’t forget to show off the gorgeous LOs you create with it at our gallery!

Ok, here’s my share at last:

Mango Tango 1
Mango Tango 2

Enjoy and, once again, don’t forget to drop by the Sunshine blog for the rest of your links!

Hi everyone!

This was supposed to have gone live HOURS ago, but I’m late as usual. I was Alice in Wonderland’s white rabbit on a former lifetime, I’m sure!

Anyway, better late than never, so here is my freshly made contribution to the Sunshine Girls (and Guy!) Mother’s Day Freebie Collab! Moms are special, amazing people, so this is a little something to help you celebrate them with!

Here is my share of A Mother’s Love. Enjoy!:

And you can find all the links to all the other Sunshine Girls’ blogs on the Sunshine Blog! How easy is that?

We hope you enjoy using this kit to celebrate the special people in your life. Be sure to stop by the Sunshine Gallery and share your layouts with us! There’s even a special new category, just for you: A Mother’s Love Gallery. Can’t wait to see your creations in there!

Happy scrapping!

Welcome to the Sunshine Sweets 1st Annual Easter Egg Hunt!” The Sunshine Girls (and surprise… we’ve added MY Mr. Sunshine to our little designer group) hope you enjoy our newest collaborative freebie “Sunshine Sweets”.

In the spirit of a traditional Easter Egg hunt we’ve decided to send you on a little, and VERY easy, hunt for our freebies! Simply click on my egg and download my freebie… inside your download will be my portion of “Sunshine Sweets” along with a folder with your next egg and the link to the blog of another Sunshine Girl (or guy! LOL) just follow that link and click on THEIR egg…their download will contain the link for the next blog… and so on and so on…

Oh! and what would be an Easter hunt without the GOLDEN EGG?? Somewhere during your hunt, you will download the Golden Egg, this link will take you to somewhere where you’ve NEVER been before, someplace NEW and VERY exciting!! This new place will have a great surprise for you (and only you, our loyal egg hunters)! This surprise will also contain a link that will help you continue on your hunt until at last your journey brings you back to my little blog… where your hunt will be complete!

No hurry…all of our links will be active for plenty long enough for you all to find your eggs, crack them open and enjoy your sweets in time for Easter! So, get busy…have fun and have a great Easter!!!

Here’s what my portion looks like:

You can download it by clicking on my lovely, gorgeous egg, made by Shauna, of Pineapple Plantation Designs, and beautified by No Less Than The Flergs!

Please Read!! One of our sunshine girls has had an emergency and we’re unsure if her links will be active by the time you get there… If for any reason you come to a site that doesn’t yet have it’s links posted or if those links don’t yet work… PLEASE just be patient…this is a really complicated matter with all of our different time zones! The links WILL eventually (and by eventually, I mean as quickly as we possibly can) be corrected or posted!…. Remember this is fun!!

First of all, and before I give you your well-deserved freebie, I want to send out a huge THANK YOU to all the lovely comments you left me here on the blog. They made me feel so appreciated, I got a warm fuzzy feeling inside.

I ended up missing my son’s party at the park, that was one of the worse days for me. Now I’m at the point where the pain is completely gone, as well as the infection, but I’m not 100% out of the woods yet, because my eardrums are still sort of glued inside. I’m under strict instructions to chew a lot of gum (!) and blow my nose often, even if it’s dry, to help make my eardrums pop and, if all goes well, that will be the end of it. If all goes less than well, though, they’ll have to do a kind of small surgery, or so I’m told. Here’s trusting in the power of the almighty chewing gum!

On other news, I am planning on having a CT Call – probably a CT Challenge, to borrow the idea from my fried Flergs – in the near future, I just need to get a few things back on track.

Now, finally, here is Love Actually:
