Redoing BLOG design...

please bear with me for a few days as I am currently redesigning my blog. thanks.

Dragonflaire Studios is closing - Everything of mine 50% off

Due to the fact that Dragonflaire Studios is closing its doors at the end of June (2008), I am running everything of mine that is in the DFS store 50% off until the doors close.

So get it while you can at rock bottom prices only @ Dragonflaire Studios!


If it is a product created by me, it is 50% off! That means there are things that are less than $1...check it out.

I am not sure where I'll be going...

I have received news that Dragonflaire Studios is shutting down come the end of June. It is a sad thing. I loved Dragonflaire Studios. Unfortunately, Maggie can't afford to keep it open anymore. :( My heart goes out to her. This is just a tough market to survive in.

That being said, I am not sure what I will be doing after the end of the month. I will still be selling, but I am not sure where at. I am currently looking for a new store.

25% off sale

Select items (of mine) are 25% off through May 31, 2008 at Dragonflaire Studios.


These items include: Summer Delights, Sunflowers and Daisies - Solids, Sunflowers, Daisies, Simply Lush, Faded Romance, Gentle Blues 1 - Quick Pages, and Gentle Blues 2 - Quick Pages.

Lots of new stuff!

I've been busily working to get new stuff up. Unfortunately, Seaside Scraps has closed it doors forever so my products are currently only available at Dragonflaire Studios.

New paper packs:

This has been in the works for a while now, but I haven't had enough time to get it finished. It took off this past week. Simple but bold and showy is the purpose of this collection. When all parts are complete (yes, there is more to come) it will be called the "Wildflowers" collection. When the full collection is complete, you will still be able to get them individually or as a collection.

Resurrected kits:

While these are not new kits, they are being uploaded to my store as they never made it there when I moved to Dragonflaire Studios.

New quick pages:

I don't normally do quick pages, but I started these many months ago and finally finished them. I hope to complete some more with some of my larger kits soon so keep an eye out for them.

I've been scrapping with "Summer Delights"

Lance was out playing in the sandbox. This is actually normal for him. This day, however, he caught my eye. Normally, he is content to get as dirty as possible. We had some rain the night before and I don't usually prevent him from his outside time regardless of the rain. He'll wash after all. I had gone out to check on him and saw him not sitting...rolling...laying...in the sandbox, simply...squatting...I stood there smiling...listening...I couldn't resist, I stepped back in the house and grabbed the camera. The words were precious, "Hey, don't put your sand on me" as he threw sand on the toy dinosaur and quickly covered him up. He unburied him again, and repeated. "Look mommy, I found a dinosaur!" His excitement was infectious.

My latest paper pack

I am not 100% sure that this will always stay a paper pack as I've got some ideas for elements in my head, but I am releasing the papers right now. I really need to finish something right now - something other than homework and housework.

I just have to finish zipping up the pack and upload to the store. It will be found at Dragonflaire Studios.


It has come a long way from the preview I showed earlier. It contains 4 solid papers in the 4 different colors. There is a striped pattern in the 4 different colors as well as 2 muted versions of a couple of them (for those that like their colors a bit more toned down). Then it also includes 3 additional patterned papers in 4 different colors. All together there are 22 sheets of digital paper.

I got disappointing news

I found out this week that one of the stores that I sell in will be closing their doors soon. Seaside Scraps will be closing up shop on May 22, 2008. I am sad, but I totally understand their reasons. Everything in the store will be 50% off until that date.

My concern lays in the fact that I am not 100% certain about the future of the other store either. The forums have been dead for weeks now. It appears that the economy as a whole is affecting every aspect of our lives.

Somehow, even with the sad news, I have been able to finish another paper pack. Go me! My plan tomorrow is to scrap and decide just which 3 universities I am going to pick from to pursue a BA in Visual Communications.

Sneak Peak!

I know you all are wondering what I've got up my sleeve now. I am not entirely sure as of right now. I do have a new product coming out SOON! Here is a sneak peak. . .

It has been a while

It has been a while since I have done any designing or even updated this blog. I am sorry for that. I have been truly busy with school and kids and life in general.

That being said, I just really want to scrap. I want to design some more too. There is some stuff in the works, but I've another another week of classes before I can crank out new fresh product.

However, I am offering everyone a coupon! $5 off any $10 or more purchase at Dragonflaire Studios on any of MY products! Sorry it is just on mine, I am not authorized to give that discount on anyone else's product. This offer runs from May 3rd to May 8th, 2008.



Have fun! Scrap lots! And keep your eye out for more fresh products soon.

New products

It has been a while since I have turned out new products, but the day has finally come. I have released 3 new paper packs - Array of Color - Blues, Two Shades of Purple, and Stormy Skies.



The 3 new paper packs and their corresponding paper packs already in the store are available at 25% off through January 19, 2008. Corresponding paper packs are: Array of Color, Basic Shades, and Two Shades of Green.

As we continue to ring in the New Year and say goodbye to 2007, my 2 Christmas paper packs - Holiday in Red and Holiday in Green - are still on sale for 30% off at Dragonflaire Studios.

Finished product

I couldn't just leave you all hanging on the whole CD Case calendar. I've had some interest on how to make them and I wanted to be sure to post a finished product so you could see just how useful they are. I LOVE them!

I am seriously considering making templates for them. I am not sure how fast I'll get to that, but I am seriously considering it.
