I'm retiring!!!!!!!

yes... November 30th is my final day.

I am retiring from designing (for the most part). This is the time for you to grab my goodies for dirt cheap. Nothing in my store is over $2. Most everything is $1.25 and under. (my collab, Rockabilly Tweets is excluded)



I will be still designing from time to time and offering my goodies on my blog and advertising them on my Facebook Fan page.

I'm looking forward to no deadlines, blogging about my bargain finds, Valley Fever info, and whatever else I feel like.
(I was diagnosed last Thursday with Valley Fever and I find out Tuesday morning about my "treatment options". I'm hoping it's something very reasonable)

*ETA - I'm not retiring only because of having Valley Fever. I've been thinking about it for a little while before this even happened. I am just ready for having the time to possibly scrap again, having no design deadlines, being able to start a new blog about misc bargains & information - including designs on there from time to time.,,,,, and just feeling like I have more freedom for whatever.

Thanks so much for supporting me at SDD, my previous stores, and in our digiscrap community. I truly appreciate it!

Happy Halloween Weekend SALE!

Happy Halloween weekend!
EVERYTHING - including my collab and CU items -
EVERYTHING is 31% off now thru the weekend

enjoy!

All you need to do is make one 4x6 page and at the end of the month you will receive one large coordinating brag book.  In September, it coordinates with Ouchies XX and Ouchies XY page kits.
