Allison Pennington, Exclusively at CatScrap

And today there’s a TON of fun going on in the fun & games section of the BDay forum.  And that means lots of chances to WIN!!!  And just in case you’re one of those rare birds that likes freebies there’s a new clue today.  Follow the clue and claim your second freebie!!  If you didn’t find mine yesterday don’t fret.  The clue and freebie are still there. 

If you haven’t stopped by to see this weeks New Release you should!

As a token of my appreciation for all the support and welcome I’ve received since joining CatScrap everyone who purchases this kit (30% off all week) between last Sunday night and this coming Friday at midnight PST will be entered into a drawing and one winner will get all of next weeks new releases (or their equivalent).

See you soon!!

OMG… I just lost a whole post!  I don’t want to type it again… LOL

So I’ll just give you the lowdown.  Today marks my first official day as an exclusive CatScrap designer.  Crazy, huh?

I’ll be slowly moving some of my stuff over, starting with Keen! I love this kit and I love it CatScrap.

And because I’ve been so welcomed at CatScrap here’s a little gift.

The first to use it gets the full Keen bundled kit for free: iHRTcatscrap
It’s been used! But there’s still another gimme at the end of the post…

And now I’d like to catch you up on the goodness that’s been added to CatScrap over the last few weeks.

Check out the crazy additional images to see some ridiculously fantastic layouts created by awesome scrappers with Delilah.

Also pretty new is my part of the Summer 2010 Catwalk:

Above is the bundle but, of course, if you check my store you’ll find it broken down, too.  The alpha, papers, and two versions of the doodles can be purchased separately but just between us… you save $$ by buying it all together.  And frankly, it’s all pretty cool.  Am I allowed to say that?  While you’re there check out the rest of the store.  Tons (tons!) of absolutely insane Catwalk goodies await.  Not to mention that since I’ve joined CatScrap some unbelievable designers have joined the store.  Now, I know what you’re thinking.  My being a part of CatScrap enticed them.  But you’re wrong.    All kidding aside – Kristen Rice!  Leora Sanford!  Julia Makotinsky?!  Add that to the ridiculous list of already present CS designers and it’s like Christmas every day of the week.

And if you made it this far here’s another little speed gift:

First three get $3: irllyHRTcatscrap

First two get $7 free at my store, iNSD_tweet_7 http://ow.ly/1FnUV

Happy iNSD! My whole PDP store is 50% off through the weekend. Stop in here starting the 1st of May for New Releases, treats, and even a pretty big surprise!

Oh yeah – find me on Twitter…. there might be giveaways posted off and on. There might even be one happening right this second!

See you soon!

What a week!  Hope everyone else had a week just as nutty and fun.  Since this week’s new releases are going to be delayed until next I made a little coordinating gift for everyone.  Which also means there’s still time to win all of the “For the Love of Paper” packs released up to next week (next week Passionate Paisleys, Solid Solids, and Daring Damasks will be released so that’s NINE packs to win!!).  Check my store to see what you like, they’re hard to miss.  I’ve had a great time with the palette I chose for basics this year and I hope you will, too.   The elements and alphas that coordinate are super fun and I can’t wait to release them.   Every comment here or in my freebie thread at Polka Dot Plum will be entered to win – up to 5 people will win the pack of their choice and 1 person will win them all!

But I promised a freebie, didn’t I?  Here it is… Solid Solids, Contrast Happy mini paper pack.  Click to download:

Free till next week (at least!). Don’t forget, there’s another week of new challenges at the Plum also. Don’t miss them!

Hey! Where’ve you been? What? I’ve been the one missing??

Okay, you’re right. The quick version…
Illness. Child support wars. Diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Met Polka Dot Amy. Pippi had her puppy. Outdoor School. More illness.

Those are just the headlines but I imagine you get the jist. I’m sleepy. And hungry. And swollen.

But that’s not why you’re here, is it! New this week:

I love this kit.  Seriously.  It’s inspired by my baby boy (who’s almost 9).  He dresses up for school almost every day.  Button up, sports coat, and tie.  Wakes up early every day to shower.  On his own.  He combs his hair and has been wearing deodorant since he was 4.  Not because he’s stinky but because he wants to smell nice.  He uses proper tense and is ultra polite and witty.  Truth be told – the other side of his personality involves an encyclopedic knowledge of Star Wars, Legos (can build the biggest kits in under an hour), and WWII.  And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.  The kids complicated.  And so smart that if he didn’t look like me I’d have to wonder.  But back to the kit… 42 papers, 60 something elements (no recolors), 2 alphas (one in two colors), and when you buy the whole kit together you also get a template set and brush set, exclusive to this kit.  Seriously.  Boyish without being cartoony or babyish.  And classic enough to work for everyone else, too.    And there’s mustaches.  MUSTACHES!!  And you can use the mustache brush to paint mustaches on your pictures!  The best part?  Only $7 for all of it.  No joke.    Here’s some layouts from my ladies Jenn and Jadelyn…

Just for you, my favorite people, here’s a code for a dollar off Keen, good thru 4/15: Keen_Blog$1OFF

Ready for a coupla more things? This week there was also two more paper packs added to the “For the Love of ….” collection, basics in my personal palette for 2010.  These two bring the current total to six released so far.  Keep watching for the rest of the collection to trickle in during the next couple of months.

Want to win?  Leave a comment and let me know your favorite pack from the collection so far and next Wednesday, the 21st, I’ll randomly pick 5 people to pick one pack from the collection so far and 1 person to win all of the packs so far!  Don’t forget to stop by Polka Dot Plum for a new week of challenges – which means more chances to win the monthly prize and to earn more points towards coupons for the store!  See you soon…
