Big bummer

I found out last night that another designer will be quitting. There is nothing official yet, but I am sad. It just goes to show how difficult it can be to make it in this business. If I didn't love it, I wouldn't be doing it. It certainly doesn't pay the bills. I don't think that it ever will. Anyway, I am sad for my friend. I am sorry she'll be giving it up. On another note, I am happy that she's trying her hand at something else that hopefully she'll love and enjoy even more!

Hey, maybe I should recruit her for my Creative Team!

I had to do it!

They kept bugging me for an "about me" layout for the site at Dragonflaire Studios. I don't have many pictures of myself, so that was the first part of the challenge right there. I don't like the pictures I do have. That is another issue all together. It isn't so bad now that I have lost 20# but I am not glad to post pictures everywhere. I guess it just means that I'll have to update the page once I get newer pictures. The last part was "what do I do?" I didn't know! I started over at least 10 times.

This picture was taken in April by my son, Andrew. I like the picture simply because he took it! The papers in this layout are from my "Basic Shades" paper pack. The doodles are yet to be released. The font used is Bradley Hand.

The Shaker Box has a monthly kit club

A smaller site that many of you might not be aware of is The Shaker Box. It is a very friendly environment for both digital and traditional scrappers alike (and everything in between). If you haven't been there, you should go check it out.

They have started offering a "Monthly Kit Club." I just checked out the information on it and it is exciting stuff. The description says that it is full of stuff for all types of scrapbookers - digital, hybrid, and traditional paper. Interesting! Information about the kit club is on the front page of the site.

Check out this preview:


And that's just the preview. You can find the listing for the contents of September's kit here: http://theshakerbox.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=28
This thing is loaded with paper supplies!

I'm not 100% sure how it benefits us 100% digital girls, but I'll try to get some more information.
