Pre-Train Goodie

I finally managed to get a little add-on goodie made today for the 'Can We Keep Him, Mommy?' blog train. I'm still working on the main kit, but I'm almost finished with it (I think). My part seems to be leaning more toward all the non-furry critters that the kids find & want to keep. The itty-bitty frog on one of the bottlecaps below is a mini-preview of one of the elements in my kit - much bigger size in the main kit though. Anyway, as always, I hope someone may be able to find a use for these little bits! :)

And don't forget to go by the station blog to snag all the other pre-train goodies from the other ladies who are participating.

Contents:
- 5 bottlecaps (200 x 200 px each)
The frog one is shown at 100% on the preview below. Just click on the image to see it at full-size. My blog still downsizes all my previews to 400x400, but the actual image is 500x500px.

Upcoming Blog Train

I'm really looking forward to participating in this blog train! It's all about animals - all the critters that the kiddies find & bring home. This will actually be the first blog train I've ever joined. I started working on a few little critters this afternoon to go in my kit. :)

It's well worth a look already, even though it doesn't officially take off until August 2nd. There are some really nice freebies posted at the station blog from some of the ladies who are contributing. Go have a look! Just click on the logo or color palette preview below to go to the blog for those freebies!

I got an award!

First of all, my apologies to Miss Erin for me being so late finding her post that let me know she'd given me the award. I'm always behind anymore, but I always do manage to eventually find everything. So a huge thank you to Miss Erin for the treat. :) (And as a note to anyone who has never visited her blog, go now! She has some wonderful kits posted to share!)

All of the credit for the design of my blog goes to Pamela from The Posh Box. She did a super job on the design, and I still love it. Now, I'm supposed to pass along the award to 7 other blogs. However, I'm not having much luck finding any which haven't already received it. So I guess I'll just say a huge thank you again to Miss Erin for the special treat I finally found this evening. :)

Deco Stones

It's a set of 10 freebie accent stones in this post. I saw four of these somewhere a couple of weeks ago, and I finally had some time today to try making them in PSP. Maybe someone can use one as a tag accent or something. If anyone were to use these, I'd love to see what you do with them so feel free to send me an email. My address is included in the TOU text file inside the download zip.

I also wanted to add a note of thanks to all of you guys who take the time to leave a note here at my blog, either in the comments or the chat box, or over at 4shared when you download. I'm always kind of slow reading through them all, but I do read & appreciate every single one of them. :)

Contents:
- 10 stones - each approx. 250 x 150 px. (The "Believe" one is shown at 100% on the preview - just be sure to click on the image so you can see it at full-size.)

Overall Sam Kit

Here's a companion kit for the one I posted last weekend. My sister or I one had a quilt Granny made that had both the Sunbonnet Sue and the little boy on it. I couldn't remember what the little boy was called, so based on some Googling, looks like he's called Overall Sam or Denim Dan or Sun-hat Sam. I decided to go with Overall Sam for the name since he has the little suspenders holding up his britches.

As always, I hope someone might like it and be able to find a use for the kit. If you were to make a tag using it, please let me know. I'd love to see it. :)

This is a tagger-sized kit.
Contents:
- 20 papers (700 x 700 px)
- 14 bows
- 8 buttons
- 6 clips
- 5 flowers
- 5 frames
- 5 knotted ribbons
- 10 straight ribbons (800 px long)
- 4 ricrac (800 px long)
- 5 Overall Sams (approx. 600 px tall)
