I am so excited to tell you about this new design!  It has been quite a while since my last release, and this is my first design using a scrapbook kit.  (I used the lovely Aged Elegance kit by Cindy Ritter.) I think I’m in love! *laugh*

Flourishing Fall is a gorgeous design which features fall colors, multiple textures, and several flourish and swirl elements.  It includes a custom layered-look background; custom main, sidebar, and footer backgrounds; decorative elements at the top and bottom of both the post area and the sidebar; a custom header (you tell us what text you want); and a custom signature (you choose the signature wording).

Since this is a Limited Design, this design will only be sold 5 times, and it has already been sold once.  Because this was created as a seasonal design, it is being sold at a bargain price – $67.43.  If you want this design, you’d better buy it now before it’s gone forever!

Please note: If you purchase Flourishing Fall for a platform other than Blogger, you will need to purchase the Non-Blogger Adaptation Add-on.

If you have any questions about this design, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

The Sunny Johnson card is designed to coordinate with our Strawberry Ice Cream Exclusive Design.

The light blue border on the Stacy Jones card will not appear on the actual card. It is there only to define the card’s edge in the image; however, if you would like to keep the border, please state that when you order this card, and we will make sure the border coordinates with the other blues in the card and is included in the print area.

Amy’s Angels is a blog created for a wonderful cause – 12 women have formed a team which will participate in the Breast Cancer 3-day walk. These women call themselves Amy’s Angels because they are participating in honor of their friend Amy who won her battle with breast cancer. While they have not yet started posting to this blog, you can visit to see the full design and to find links to their donation pages. This was a fun design to create and sports a different look from the standard square blog layout. I especially love the halo I created around the A in Angels. I love the cause this blog promotes, and I hope they exceed their fund raising goals.

Sky of Seeryus Mama was actually one of our two winners in the Weary Parent giveaway. She picked out two images (one with flowers and the other with multiple circles) that she hoped I could make work together and stated that she likes brown with pinks or greens and would like a “peace and love” kind of vibe without being too 60&70-ish about it. I used a portion of the flower image and used the circles image as inspiration to create my own circles to coordinate with the design’s colors. I think this is one of the prettiest designs I have made to date, and Sky absolutely loves it.

Linda and I have decided to create Unlimited Designs based on the free headers we recently gave away. Because I love it so much, I decided to begin with my Happy Days header first. I ended up creating not one, but two, designs: Happy Days (bubbles), the image at the beginning of this post, features a bubble background, and Happy Days (stripes), the next image, features a striped background. Happy Days was designed with modern colors and a fun background design which create a happy atmosphere reminiscent of childhood days spent playing in the summer sun.
