Sunday Blogger Gift Time!

Hello friends and fans! First let me say that if you are looking for the blog trains, check out the post prior to this one!

I feel safer this week even if I am somewhat poorer! My almost son-in-law installed a new front door package for me on Friday that has been needing to be replaced for a very long time! My daughter picked it out and ordered it for me and Ron and a friend put it in, all I had to do was pay for it! The old door was so rotted that if someone wanted to get in all they had to do was give it a good shove and . . .

I have been working on items for the specialty categories at Digi Style Designs, Heartfelt Perfections, and Berry Applicious. The make your own kit categories have pieces and parts you can pick and choose from at lower than normal prices, you should check them out if you haven't before.  I am currently working on the HFP ones and I have posted these finished ones at DSD:





There is a free quickpage on my FaceBook Fan Page! Chris made it from my old kit Softly Spoken and an element from my 'in progress' kit Sweets. Drop by the page and get one!



That time of week again; I have a new blog gift for you. Going with the current Halloween theme, I have made you a card/package topper or you can use it for layouts. Hope you like this gift; just click on the link under the preview to download.

This week's newsletter gift is two more of these Halloween treats:


Enjoy your gifts and come back soon for more!

Sunday October 13, 2013 Blog Gift

Hello friends,

Not much happening in my neck of the woods this past week, how about for you? I prefer it when I have nothing to complain about, don't you! Of course there is always those stubborn Congress people! :)

Halloween is fast approaching and since it is such a big holiday here in the States, Canada, and Australia, I've made some more gifts for the occasion. I've made two word art elements for you, one for this week's blog freebie and one for this week's newsletter freebie.

This is this week's blog gift, just click on the link under the preview to download yours:



This is this week's newsletter gift and you must be signed up and confirmed before you will receive it:


On Monday, October 14, the Berry Applicious Blog Train will start so come back to pick up some templates I made for you.

Hope you all have a great week and come back soon for some news on a new kit I am working on!

Thanks everyone!

Hello Everyone!

How are you this week? Keeping busy? Working on your scrapbooking? Better get cracking as you will soon have to start on those Christmas photobooks, greeting cards, and family portraits! Since we are on the subject of holidays, this week's Sunday gift is Halloween themed. Halloween isn't a favorite holiday but I do love the scrapbooking elements!

Since tomorrow is the first Monday in October, I will be announcing this month's winner of the Loyalty Lottery in my newsletter! Our last winner jumped on her email addy really quickly and chose one of my favorite kits for her prize, A Lady's Boudoir! Make sure you have registered and if you have and have not been receiving my weekly newsletter it is because you forgot to confirm your subscription or you gave us the wrong address! Be sure and check! The newsletter gift this week is also Halloween themed.

Well along with the weather cooling down the leaves are turning too! Just beautiful this time of year in the United States! Remember the cooler weather means you need to protect your pets from the cold, don't forget to put out seed for the songbirds, and suet for the woodpeckers.

Here is this week's blog gift. Just click on the link below the preview to download!


Don't forget we have the Berry Applicious Blog Train on the fourteenth! Come back soon.

Halloween Freebie!

Hey Y'all!

Hope everything is fine with y'all tonight/today/this morning! LOL! We are spread out all over the world aren't we?  Isn't the Internet amazing? Did you ever think you would be friends with people in countries other than your own? I wish I was younger, not because I was beautiful and talented (did I say beautiful), so that I could enjoy all this freedom to learn and investigate and communicate longer.  I love the Web! I don't think I have ever enjoyed anything as much as I have and am enjoying the Internet. I remember the first week we had a home computer and my roommate was dialing the telephone from it in order to go up to the Epson Bulletin Board to find out what was happening with other Epson users. We were the first of our friends and the first on our street to have a computer and we thought we were hot stuff :o) The first project I worked on was a security manual for the bank I worked for as their Security Manager.  I wrote the entire manual on that old Epson (it was new then of course) and printed it out on a dot matrix printer! We thought that was so amazing, that we could type and correct then print out on our own printer.  This was before every office had one of the 'line' correctable typewriters, you know the ones that let you back up by one line and correct a mistake before it printed on your paper!  Wow! I am going on my own personal memory trip! Anyway, you get my meaning: THE WORLD WIDE WEB IS WONDERFUL!

I promised that I would come back this week with a freebie for you and I finally got a chance to make good on my promise! I have made you a Halloween overlay to use over your paper of choice. Try different blending styles with it to get some really interesting papers to use in your scrapping. I love the little bats and glassy eyed frog! Here is the preview:


You can download this freebie from HERE or from HERE.

I am past due to send out a newsletter too and I have made a freebie for it also.  It is called Scary Jack because it is a Jack-O-Lantern sitting in the dark with two candles lit inside casting out some spooky light! I thought it would be a fun sign to have at your Halloween parties (you can get Costco to print it for you for as little as $1.49 for an 8x8 or $2.99 for 12 x 12)) or a cute clipart element to add to your Halloween scrapbook layouts.

Be sure and sign up for my newsletter (to your right on the side panel) if you haven't already so you can get your copy of Scary Jack!

Okay, I have a question for all you hybrid and altered art scrappers.  When you print out a digi-stamp to use in your project and you want to color it with color pens, chalks, watercolors, etc. what do you do to keep the inkjet inks from running  and smearing and ruining your project? A friend of mine is getting ready to market some gorgeous digi-stamps that are geared toward the paper and altered arts scrappers.  These artists don't print out their elements in color like we digi-scrappers do, they use them as if they had a stamp they pounced on an ink pad then color it in.  I know that there are fixatives for this but what do You use and what do you think is the best way to use it? If anyone comes up with a super good answer I am pretty sure I could talk my friend into giving you a Christmas digi-stamp to use on your projects! Just leave your answers in the comments section or email me at countryliv@yahoo.com with Digi-Stamp in the subject line.

I am sorry I have not been blogging as I should, this past month has been a doosey and looks like October is going to be going the same way! I have been blessed with a design assistant by the name of Chris Allport who has turned into one of the greatest finds a designer could hope for; she is knowledgeable, quick, prolific,has an ace photog as a husband, and is indispensable! It will be because of her if I get back here again this month!

Oh, one more thing: The new design store I was joining this month has had a small set back but Bella Zingaro Studio will be up and running by November 1, this year! So keep your ears tuned for the Grand Opening which promises to be a fun time!

Y'all take care now!

Some New Developments

Hey Y'All,

Well, I'm not sure the Hoorray.com site is going to continue with the Designer Line after Christmas. I was hoping the albums were going to be very popular and I would make some very much needed funds. I have put in so many long hours on the albums I submitted and am very dissappointed that my Beach album didn't get put on the site before the talking heads dissed the whole concept. If you are interested in ordering an album, be it mine or one of the other designers', please go to the site and do it now.

I have started making some kits and elements to be included in a CD that is going to be offered at DigiScrapShop. The Halloween CD will probably be ready for orders by the beginning of November and there are plans to do Thanksgiving and Christmas CD too. If you go to the site via my blog and purchase a CD, I will make a commission from it! This could be lucrative for me and a great buy for you as there are going to be oodles of designers products included on each themed CD. When the CD is ready I will post the link for you to follow. Below is a preview of one of the items that will be available exclusively on this CD.


About Kim. Nothing good to report but I do have a favor to ask: Would you please pray for Kimberli's children for an unnamed mercy? I am not able to disclose the problems facing the children but God knows and every plea helps to let him know how important this is. Please, please, please! Their future depends on divine intervention.

Joshua's Tenth Birthday is October 1!!!! Seems like he was born just a little bit ago. I am so glad his Mom is still alive to celebrate with him. She is planning to take him and 3 friends to Nascar Speed Park, Saturday, for the day (she has been saving for this for a while) and he is sure to have a wonderful time. Her husband is still out of work (and I personally don't think he is planning on ever looking for a job). Just because the adults aren't holding up their end of the bargain shouldn't mean the children have to do without!

Take care everyone.
Hugs,
Liv

Hey Y'all!

I finished the Halloween Mini Kit for you. Hope you have a use for it. You can make the elements into stickers for your pages if you like. You can also print these graphics out and use them for hybrid scrapping.
