Steampunk Marches on! NEW CU!

When I released Steampunk World last week, my creative team begged for plain hats so they could make their own hat creations.

Here is the result. I made a leather and silk versions. The band is removable so you can use it or place your own ribbon instead. Each comes layered with easy instructions on how to best clip your papers for a realistic look.

This is the kit that inspired it. If you missed it at 20% off when it was a new release, there will be a coupon inside the download of these CU Hats. You just never know when or where to expect coupons from me, so always check your folders.

Also a reminder, that Vintage Blue will remain on sale 25% off all through the month of March!

Mardi Gras and a new SALE feature to tell you about!

Mardi Gras is this week and I have great news for you. I am posting a little early so you can plan ahead to grab this kit that is perfect for your Mardi Gras pages. At Mscraps, every Wednesday each designer can offer up a product that is 50% off on that day only. How perfect is the timing for French Quarter to be on sale this Wednesday. Half off will make it only $2.50!

Imagine how cute your Mardi Gras pages will be with French Quarter! Remember, the sale is only on "Wednesday," although in the US it should hit sometime on Tuesday evening.

On another note, the Design team at Mscraps has something exciting that we are introducing starting this month. The Store will feature one favorite past kit from each designer that will be for sale at 25% off for THE ENTIRE MONTH. Look for the category called Spotlights-March!

I am starting March off with Vintage Blue! That's right it's on sale now and it will remain so until March 31st.

This is for all you Steampunk Fans!

I got the idea to make a steampunk kit a few weeks ago and I got so excited about it. I thought of all these wonderful things I planned to put in it and wanted to sit down right then and there to complete it. It didn't exactly happen in one sitting, but I am thrilled with the results. First, I worried that these kits tend to be heavy on the dark colors, so I decided mine would not be like all the others. I used a few colors that brighten it up perfectly. I hope you love it as much as I do.

This kit has not one, but TWO awesomely decorated hats. Get ready to transport yourself into my crazy gadgety, cog and gear-filled world. And you get to have it for 20% through the weekend! At the end of this post, find out how you can get a set of gorgeous matching glitter styles.

One last thing before you dive in to this fun, you will want to make a point to check back in a week, because the steampunk goodness will continue. That's all I am saying for now. Meanwhile, enjoy these gorgeous pages and click the first image to go to my store.

Friday Happy, Scrappy Hour!!!

Welcome to Key Lime Digi Design's very first Friday Happy Scrappy Hour! Happy Hours will feature a variety of different challenges. One week it may be a speed scrap held on facebook; another time it may be a template or a color challenge.  

I'm Lisa-Lisa from The Cherry On Top.  I'm a Creative Team member for Key Lime Digi Design. This week we kick off with a Combo- it's a color challenge with a Pagemap to follow along with. Take some inspiration from the page map AND the colors shown below.  You have one week to finish this mission.

Below, you will see a colour palette that mirrors many of the same hues in several kits from KLDD, including the recent freebies.  So, there is no reason you can't play along.  This challenge is also designed to invite card makers and paper scrappers as well. 

I'm giving you the palette, the Pagemap sketch template AND links to grab KLDD free stuff so that everyone can participate.  You've got a week to gather your goodies and put it all together. On Thursday, one randomly chosen scrapper will win Indigo Serenade (scroll down for image).

1.  Make sure at least three of these colours are in your layout.  

  

2.  Here is the sketch template to follow.

This sketch template is provided by pagemaps.  They have hundreds of templates to help you get started with your scrappy endeavours when inspiration seems to be lacking.

3.  Make sure at least 50% of your layout is from KLDD.

This image is linked up to KLDD's Facebook Page where you can download the FREE papers. While you're there sign up for the newsletter to get the FREE elements.

Need inspiration? These two kits are perfect for this challenge. Just click on either image which will take you to the store. (Bonus secret: When you buy Indigo Serenade, there is a 25% off coupon inside, so you can save while you build your stash).

Lastly, Show us your Layout. We have a place just for that in our facebook group, KLDD's Challenge Spot. If you don't use facebook, you can post your pages or their shortened links here as a comment. Winner will be announced in the next newsletter and a future blog post, so keep your eye on the prize. This is what the winner gets!

Full kit is now on sale 20% off at Mscraps

So, there is your challenge for this week.  Gather your goodies and get scrapping.  You deserve it!

Just a reminder--- anyone who subscribed to the newsletter will get this mini add-on when the next one goes out. Tell your friends!

We'll see you back here with the link to your layout, card or project and a winner will be chosen.  We can't wait to see what beautiful things you create.

Indigo Serenade

Welcome Digi Divas!

The Cherry On Top here, bringing you this new release from Key Lime Digi Designs.  "Indigo Serenade"  is full of romance, intrigue and passion.  Sounds like a good book and it's certainly a fantastic kit.  Contrasting, gorgeous papers that you'll just want to touch and elements that can take you back to a cool summer night on the beach or throw you forward to that trip to Greece you've been dying to take!  

As you scroll through the Creative Team's wonderful designs, you'll see just how versatile, full and practical "Indigo Serenade" really is.  I invite you on a roller coaster of wonder and awe.  Keep your hands on the mouse, your eyes on the screen and be ready to drop your jaw!

Keep in mind that Key Lime Digi Design's are quality enough to print and use in hybrid projects.  There are several layouts here that would make stunning cards when printed out on card stock and even extravagant when added bling, glitter or paper flowers are adhered.

Be sure to join Key Lime Digi Design and the Creative Team on Friday for the weekly scrap challenge!  Key Lime DD freebies are allowed with this challenge.  Everyone who makes a page and posts in time will get these Matching Journal Cards.

Stay tuned tomorrow for the details!
