Freebies about to expire

I am writing this note to remember you that Heart Rock song full kit will expire on June the 5th. For instructions to download it, click here.

As you may know for now, Heart Rock Song is the result of a design mentoring class I took at Scraps and Pieces. I learned a lot there, and realised that most of the stuff I did before that was of poor quality. I apologise for those who have downloaded poor quality things from me, it was just because I didn´t really knew the standards, and how to do better stuff.

As now I know how to do it better, and I wish I´ll have a store to sell digi stuff sooner or later, I will retire some of the previous freebies to make a full kit with a improoved quality. When I finish this kit, I´ll do how I did with heart rock song: Live it for free for a limited time, them whitdraw it to the day I am able to have a store somewhere. The kits I am going to retire on June the 07th, to work on improoved versions, are:

• Morning Fresh Mini kit
• Birds and Bees Full kit (this won´t be seen anymore as CU, so, if you want them as a CU kit, act now!
• Early Spring Alpha

Next post will be on June 01st and will include new, better quality freebies. Don´t forget to come back to check them out :)

New Release - Heart Rock Song - FREE for limited time

I am so excited to share the Heart Rock song kit. While I write this post, the kit is being uploaded, and you all have till June the 5th to grab it for free, only at Scraps N´Pieces forum.

Before I explain to you how to download, let me show you the bundle preview:

This bundle contains: 43 elements, 26 papers, including solids, four templates (offered in layered tif, psd and individual pngs, plus a preview in jpg for each alpha) and a small chipboard stamped alpha including uper and lowercase, and some punctuation. In the post below, you have a close look at the elements/word arts preview. And I have a page using one of the templates, with elements and papers of the kit, whose journalling says a curious fact that happened when I was designing this kit:

Funny, isn´t it? In the kit the "rock" wordart is already on a chalkboard background, so you can use it in any color of paper. Well, now, the information you are probably looking for:

Instructions to download:

-Go to Scraps and Pieces and eiter log in the forums, or Register. If you are registering now, your account needs to be approved, but I believe it will happens very fast.

-After Logging in, you will find all the links here. There are 5 sepparated parts, all of them hosted at the same direct download server you know from my last freebies. 

-When you finish downloading my part, browse the Photoshop Class Gallery, and you´ll find tons of other freebies to download, coming from other people who took designer mentoring class. The intermediate and advanced classes made full kits, while the beginner classes made colabs, so you´ll find around 10-12 full kits and 5 colabs, all quality-checked. If they aren´t all up yet, you should come back in the afternoon or tomorrow. But don´t forget to grab them quick, as the most of us will only have the links up for 15 days. 

I have to remember you: At least for the next months, I won´t have this kit as freebie anywhere else, and it will possibly be your only chance to get it. Enjoy the kit either to play with the chalkboard trend, to make music-based layouts, or even romantic layouts - It´s up to you! It was made based on my favorite pop/rock songs, and I hope you enjoy scrapping with it as much as I enjoyed designing.

Announcement and SNP May Blog Train

Welcome to my stop at SNP blog train for this month - but, BEFORE showing you my part and so, I would like to announce a free, full quality-checked kit I´ll be offering as a freebie ONLY for a very limited time at the Scraps´N´Pieces galleries, starting on next Monday, May 20th. You will need to be registered at SNP forum, so, if I were you, I´d register now. There will be about 17 full kits there, some will be made for "single" designers, others will be colabs, and they have a huge range of subjects. I have my own full kit, and It´s called Heart Rock Song. Check my preview:

Now, to real post business: If you are following the Scraps´N´Pieces Mother´s May 1 Blog Train, you probably came from the blog of a designer I´m a fan of: Keystone Scraps. My part is a mini kit this time, because this month I got super-busy with Heart Rock Song kit.

Charity collab for the Animal Protection League

Those who know me knows that one of the causes I strongly support is the animal protection. I always donate to NGOs and shelters or buy their stuff, and I also have 5 cats at home which I rescued from the streets. So when Molly, from Mollyscraps called for help to do a collab kit with the full money will go to the Animal Protection League, which made a big rescue of abandoned animals at a farm last month, of course I deceided to do my best to help.

The final kit, with counts with colaborations of the fantastic designers fromCallaluna Creations, Bits O’Scrap, Bubbles Bits, By dhariana, DBS Digiscraps, Inspired by Dominic Designs, Jessica Dixon, Just Jaimee, Key Lime Digi Design, Little Rad Trio,  Misplaced Mermaid, mollyscraps, Ninigoesdigi, Pink Boy Studio, and Scrumptiously, has over 55 papers, more than 120 elements, 2 alphas, 7 quickpages, 21 journal cards, 6 filler cards and 2 clusters, plus a $5 coupon to mollyscraps:

Also, a preview of the (always fantastic) journal cards by Scrumptuosity:

I was going to make only some CT work, because I got really busy with the Design Mentoring Class I´m taking at Scraps´N´Pieces. But as I saw it only had Molly´s alpha, I deceided to add an extra one. I have also two surprise clusters made with other member´s parts:

Now, the issues of the deal: Everything will cost only 10 dollars, which you need to donate directly to the Animal Protection League. First, you have to come here to donate. Then, you should send a copy of your receipt to talktotheanimalscollab@gmail.com and the download links will be send to you in a maximum of 24 hours.

Thank you in advance for helping!

Early Spring Alpha

Here we are again, in another blog train journey with Scraps and Pieces! April´s theme is Early Spring, and we have very soft, dreamy colors. If you are following the train, you probably came here from Studio Linda Renee, which is a blog I really like, and have been following for some time now. Well, back to business: I deceided to make an alpha for you. Thinking on my Brazilian friends, I put some of the accented letters we use, like á and ó. I hope you this alpha, and please, leave me comments if you download.

****Link expired****

Edit: As no one complained about direct download, it´s now my way of choice to share files. I removed the alternate link. If you had troubles with it, please comment below.

In the past months, I´ve worked with three very similar color palettes. This alpha easily coordinates with Pixel Scrapper Blogtrain (Birds and Bees), which is right below this post, and Morning Fresh Blog Train, which was lauched in February. So, I recommend you to take a look at it. My part of Morning Fresh is still up, and you still have till April 30th to grab all the portions of Birds and Bees. And, of course, you have lots of fantastic stops on this blog train! Your next stop is Created By Jill, another great designer. And, if you are starting the ride by my blog, here you can see all the stops:

Pixel Scrapper Blogtrain - Birds and Bees

Good Morning everybody!

I am very happy to be with you, joining in the 3rd Pixel Scrapper blog train. This time, the theme is Birds and bees, and the color palette is a very soft one. I have a full kit for you, and, as I said in the previous post, I´m trying direct download for it. But. As It´s the first time I do it, I´ll also provide Google Drive links, in case the other link don´t work. If you have any trouble downloading, please leave a comment describing it, so I can fix as soon as possible.

To see the other fantastic entries to this blog train, check the list clicking here. Here are my previews and the download links are below. I made a download separated for the solid papers, so, in case you prefer to make your own solids, you save some room in your HD (Their files are big, I don´t know why).

A closer look on the papers:

Now, your download links:

****Freebie expired****

Also, if you enjoyed this kit, I need to sugest you to take a look on the mini called Morning Fresh that I made for Scraps and Pieces February blog train. The download link is still active, and the color palette is really close to this one, in a way it´s easy to coordinate both. The theme isn´t too distant either. I have to confess that some times I was thinking on doing something to this kit and them remembered I had something very similar on the older one and gave up.

See you soon ;)
