New Release - Year in Review (November): Fall Fun

I am happy to announce that I have just finished designing my biggest kit yet!  It has 23 papers and 40 elements which are all designed uniquely by me!

 This adorable kit includes an overabundance of adorable autumn/fall themed papers and elements to highlight the wonderful rich colors of fall and everything that surrounds this wonderful season! 

And just in time too!  I am lucky that I designed this kit towards the beginning of the month when the weather was more fall like.  As I write this post now, the weather in my state is a cold 52 with wind gusts and cloudy skys and no signs of any leaves left on the trees :(  At least I took lots of photos of our own fall fun and I can use this kit to scrap all my memories!



This kit is available at all my stores.  I have also posted some sale dates so you can take advantage of that while you still can!

My Store at Digi Style Designs: 
(Sale of 70% ALL kits which means this new release is only 1.25 until October 31 at midnight.)  (Ok so this is my special treat to you for Halloween and it contains no calories too!)

Freebie Mini Kit - Time for Tea - A Tribute

Well, it is the start of another week, the last week actually, of October.  You know what that means, I have a freebie mini kit for you!  I just completed my Week 4 entry over at Scrapping FairyTales.

Here is some background behind it:

I found it a little difficult to start this particular challenge—It was hard for me to pick just the right theme to relate to Europe.  I started with the Italian pizza idea, thought about doing something with the Loch Ness Monster and then started to think about Italian desserts like Cannoli’s and Tiramisu.  After a few days, I changed my mind again and wanted to focus on the street cafĂ©’s and bakeries that serve such yummy goodies. 
When I started designing the beverages for my baked goods, I started to focus on one particular hot drink—tea which is a popular past time in Europe.  After doing some research on tea, I stumbled upon some studies which showed that green tea, in particular, minimizes the risk of breast cancer in women and prostate cancer in men.  After I stumbled upon this discovery, I knew the direction my kit should take!  Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, I wanted to pay some small tribute to all of those, including me, who are affected by cancer in some way (either a survivor, a family member or friend who knows someone who suffers from this terrible disease, or you have a loved one or a friend who has passed away because of cancer).  Here is Tea Time, A Tribute.  (And a special toast too, “Let’s Pray for a Cure”) 
Here is the preview:

Here is the link at Scrapping FiaryTales where you can pick up this mini kit free:
Gallery where you will find the download link

Oh yes, I wanted to actually start something on my blog for this particular kit.  In the comment section of this post, I would like to see you pay tribute to those who are affected by Cancer in particular.  If you are a survivor, share your message of courage, strength, inspiration, or difficulties.  If you are a friend of someone, share how you have helped your friend deal with this disease.  If you know someone who has died because of this terrible disease, please share a happy memory or pay tribute to them in some way.  (If you want to give me ideas on colors for a full sized kit, please feel free to do that too.  Lastly, I would like to design a guy version of this kit so please let me know of some colors--green tea minimizez the risk of Prostate Cancer in men according to some studies.)

Freebie Mini Kit - A Night to Remember - Star Struck

Well, October is just flying by!  I cannot believe that we are near the end of the third week.  This means that Halloween is just a few weeks away--Crazy!

I just finished a mini kit for Scrapping Fairytales, Design Quest, 3.  We were challenged to use a star as the theme and we had to use this theme in all 8 elements and 3 of the 5 papers.  Here is what I created:


I decided to create a formal kit with stars in mind!  I kept thinking of those night time formal events which have stars all over the place as decorations so I decided to go with that as my theme.

If you are a loyal fan of mine, you will notice that the color scheme looks a bit familiar.  This is because I used the same color scheme that I created for Design Quest, Challenge 2.  Now you can build on this earlier kit with this new edition!

You can grab this freebie by going to the gallery at Scrapping Fairytales and finding the download link.

New Release - Witchie Woman's Frames

How is October been for everyone?  Mine has just flown on by!  I do not think the next few months will be any better either with all the upcoming holidays!

I just released a new addition to my Witchie Woman's main kit.  I designed a set of 12 unique frames to frame all those spooky and sweet memories of October!

These frames coordinate spookily with my Witchie Woman's Stuff Kit!

Freebie Mini Kit - Pretty Aquamarine Metal

It has been raining all day where we live and the temperatures are dropping drastically!  Makes me want to stay inside and snuggle up in front of my computer!

To chase away the gloom, I designed a darker monochromatic kit with a color pop as my week 2 entry for Design Quest at Scapping Fairytales.  I would describe this kit as Dark and dreamy and “Aquamariney”.

Freebie Mini Kit – Autumn Whispers, Day 12

These next two installments of Autumn Whispers focuses on the mauve, pink and cranberry tones of the color scheme.  Funny, when I was growing up, my mother loved these colors and she decorated our house with these particular colors.  At that time, I was not a fan.  Now that I am all grown up, I have a new appreciation for these colors and my mom would surely love to hear me say that!  Here is Autumn Whispers, Day 12.

Freebie Mini Kit – Autumn Whispers, Day 9

Ready for more fall freebies?  Here is Autumn Whispers, Day 9. The main inspiration behind this mini kit was the beautiful fall trees which change colors during the Autumn!  After a bit, these leaves will fall to the ground and then kids everywhere seem to enjoy gathering leaves in their wagons and then creating a huge leaf pile so that they can then jump in and have a blast.

I decided to enter a Design Quest over at Scrapping Fairytales  I have been very busy with Back to School days that I have had little free time, so I needed a little extra motivation to complete some kits!

Here is my first week's entry.  We were to select a color scheme and then design a mini kit with the theme of "Fairytale Bad Guys".  When I looked at the color schemes, I knew exactly what I wanted to create....A Witchie Woman!  Here is the mini kit which I designed for the Quest....

Treats for the month of October Given by Pizazz Pixels



New Release - Witchie Woman's Stuff Full Sized Kit

Here in Michigan, the weather took a drastic turn--it is cold here--so cold that we have been wearing our winter coats!  I do not even want to think about what winter will be like here!

Speaking of chilly, here is a bitterly cute kit which I just released--It is called Witchie Woman's Stuff.
To give you a brief summary of the inspiration behind this kit, please read on....

When I have to remind my husband or kids of their chores more than once and I need to raise my voice, my dear husband often tells our children that, “mom is just witching again.”  Once our seven year old son heard this phrase a few times, he told me that, “I was a witchy woman.”  Now it is a family joke that I can be “witchy” at times!  Instead of getting mad, I just got inspired…..Inspired to create an entire kit based on a witchy woman!
