Save 25% on all New Time4Growth Designs!

Time4Growth is the fourth in my "Time4Me" Series. Sometimes life's challenges get us down. Don't let that happen! Scrap them with my Time4Growth Dig-Ette-al Kit! Change is difficult, but it usually brings personal growth - you know what they say, if it doesn't kill you, it makes you strong! Although challenges aren't always pleasant, they're a part of our story, so be sure to tell that part of your story with this kit!

Although this kit wasn't specifically designed for gardening themes, it can also be used for that, too...any kind of growth. Give these designs a try, and be sure to share what you create with us in The Ettes Gallery at PBP.

As always, you can save 25% on all of my newly released designs...so that means you'll actually SAVE 36% on Time4Growth - The Bundle! Get it while you can...the sale isn't going to last for long!

Rather than doing quick pages this time, I did some "Short Stacks". I think you'll LOVE working with these as soon as you get the hang of it. You get this great "stacked" background, and all you have to do is add your photos, title & journaling, and then layer some additional elements over them to help them "blend in". They provide a "short cut" to getting your layouts done! Give my Short Stacks a try...you'll love them!

The Creative Team has out done themselves again with this set...so many gorgeous layouts that come from the heart. I'll show just a few of them full size. Be sure to go to the gallery and leave them some love!

...and last but not least, I have a little freebie for you. I wanted you to be able to give the "Short Stacks" a test drive to see how fun and easy they are to use (although, I know...at first, you're not going to be quite sure how to use them.) Just jump in, throw some stuff on the page, and see how quickly you finish a beautiful layout!

If you didn't get the Lolly Bag...then grab my Hey Girlfriend Designs!

 If you didn't manage to pick up my Lolly Bags during the first few days of PBP's Birthday Celebration...don't panic. "Hey Girlfriend!" is now available in the PBP Shop....and this time it includes quick pages! PBP is having a fantastic sale from August 3 through August 10, so head over to the shop and SAVE 40% on everything in the shop (except bundles). That way you won't have to kick yourself for not grabbing it last weekend when I was basically giving it away :P Btw...you won't actually SEE this kit in the shop because it doesn't go live until Thursday night, but if you click the links below, you can buy them when the Birthday Sale at PBP starts!





Use these stylish "customizable" Avatars to create a gallery of girlfriends (or even use one as your avatar in your forums, on FB, etc...you can see where I'm going with this, can't you?)













New to the set this week is this set of Quick Pages. You can buy them individually, or as part of the bundle (buy them separately this week, coz you'll save more that way!)

Celebrate PBP's Birthday with . . . LOLLY BAGS!

I know, you're probably asking yourself "What the heck is a LOLLY BAG?" Well.....it's the Aussie term for a grab bag! I've created TWO COORDINATING LOLLY BAGS to help kick off PBP's birthday Celebration. They're not your typical "grab bag"....this stuff is GOOD. It MATCHES....and you're not going to want to miss out on them! Each Lolly Bag retails for over $13, but from today through August 2, you can get them for ONLY $4 EACH - that's a savings of over 70%. Run...don't walk to PBP's Shop and grab these (ok...so you know what I mean - you'd miss the sale if you literally walked to Australia *grin*)

Here's a sneak peek at my Lolly Bags....they don't get much girlier than this!

This is Lolly Bag # 1 - I won't tell you here what it includes...but if you go to our shop, you can SEE everything (lol...I'm not very good at keeping this a secret coz I LOVE this collection!)

ARRRRGGGGHHHH....my Love/Hate Relationship with Blogger continues. The image link is being a bit wonky....so if you can't click the image, just check out Lolly Bag #1 here. *sigh*

...and here's Lolly Bag #2 - it coordinates perfectly with #1, and believe me when I say you NEED this one. I LOVE the Avatars & Spattered Swirls so much....oh wait, I didn't say that. I would NEVER tell you what this Lolly Bag includes!

Since it's PBP's birthday, I decided to give YOU a gift. Check out this freebie made with my Lolly Bags!

Be sure to check out The Ettes PBP Gallery to see the GORGEOUS things that our Creative Team made with my Lolly Bags. I'd show you here...but I want you to go to PBP's Site and join in the fun!

Be sure to check PBP's site regularly this month...we have a HUGE sale coming up, and tons of FUN activities to celebrate their FIFTH YEAR in business! There will be a scavenger hunt, blog & facebook hop, challenges & more....and yes, there will be LOTS of PRIZES. So head over to PBP's Website and PBP's Facebook Page to check them out!

The Bundle

I think you'll love my "Make a Mermaid" set...the skin tones, fins, hair and extra accessories all come separate so that you can customize & create your own little mermaid. Wouldn't it be fun to have a little MERMAID Birthday Party (and I'm not talking Disney here)

Several of our CT members are away on vacation, so I recruited PBP's CT members to work with my CT to create some sample layouts for you. Prepare to be impressed!

I even created a little freebie for you that coordinates with my Going Coastal Designs - be sure to snag it and show us what you do with it.

And hey, if you're in the market for a few more freebies, check out the Designer Freebie Forum at PBP....we're posting some goodies there, and you're going to want them all.

Time4Family - New in the PBP Shop!

Time4Family is the third release in my Time4Me Series - Families come in all shapes & sizes & they help define each of us. Unfortunately, life gets so hectic that sometimes we need a reminder to give more of our time to those that we love. So, take a break, enjoy some time with your family, and scrap a page about it, whether it's just an ordinary day, or some quirky facts about the nuts in your family tree!

All Time4Family designs are discounted 25% through July 12, so grab them while you can save! As usual, The Bundle! is discounted 15% every day, so with the additional new release discount, you'll actually save 36% on The Bundle! Time to go shopping, isn't it?



Remember to shop by Tuesday, July 12 to save 25%!

Finally, our CT did a FANTASTIC job with this set of designs. I have sooooo much fun seeing their creations come in after I've given them a new set of designs. I'm kind of like a kid on Christmas morning...yes, it's that much fun for me! Be sure to check them out and leave a little love in the gallery!
