It’s Thursday, and that means new release day at The Digichick! All new products on sale for 20% off all day Thursday AND Friday, woo hoo! So this year TDC has set up a category for everyone doing Project 365 called Studio 365.  This is a special section where all of the designers at TDC can make special products for Project 365 that all coordinate with one another… and will be this way for the whole year!  I thought this was an awesome idea.  I’ve never actually participated in Project 365, but as a scrapper Ialways loved the idea and loved working with the products made especially for it.  So with that in mind I tried to remember last year and what a lot of fellow scrappers/ creative team members would request or voice their opinions about things they could or couldn’t find for their layouts.  One thing that I had remembered hearing quite a few times was the request for thumbtacks, pins, or cork board related goodies.  So I thought again I’d dabble in making some personal use goodies, and that this idea would be what I’d play with   So for this week, I have two new releases.  One is a wood framed cork board with 5 thumbtacks that are each in 8 colors to match the Studio 365 palette, and the other is a metal rimmed cork board with 4 fatter funky thumbtacks… each also in 8 colors to coordinate with Studio 365.  Here are the previews, and remember they’re both on sale for 20% off through Friday!

Hope you like them! I had a lot of fun making them

Here’s a closer look at the detail inside

Ok, first off before I start my post, I wanted to post an ad that I thought I already posted but apparently didn’t   I must’ve closed it after previewing the post because the draft is just sitting here all lonely.  I wanted to let you all know that Kim B. is having a HUGE sale this week.  Here’s the graphic ad that will ’splain it all nice and purdy for you:

This is at both Digiscrap Obsession and Digi ScrapVAult.

I feel terrible for that happening, hopefully you still have enough time to go tear apart her store LOL.  I know I always do, I always have been and always will be a huge fan of Kim’s!

So… what else is going on?!  I feel a ramble coming on because I haven’t posted a real blabber post in forever!  I was thinking earlier about all the stuff that’s happened since my last chatty post and couldn’t believe how long it’s been.  We’ve been through losing Izzy’s first tooth, to Izzy starting Kindergarten, then Izzy losing his second tooth, Izzy turning 6… which I’m still in denial about!  So many things, and that’s just Izzy!  A lot I’ve overlooked on purpose… I get like that when I get down or stressed out about things in real life outside of our fun little digi scrap world.  I forget that I need to keep looking at the positive sometimes and I just let it eat me alive.  I also have anxiety issues and when the sad and high strung Nett get together… they tie the silly Nett up and hide her away until she can break free again.  Hopefully that’s over with for a bit, or at least hopefully I’ve learned to work through a bit of it so I can find the silly again.  The last few days… yeah I’ve had a whole lot of it hanging out with me LOL.  It always starts with sleep deprivation, which happens to me a lot because I don’t sleep well EVER.  Even if I try to, I’m a major insomniac and get about 2 or 3 hours a night.  So starting with the slippers and jammies the other day the giggles started in me   We got him a new pair, kinda like a grandpa would wear… which is perfect for a guy like him LOL.  They didn’t really have any fun kids slippers that would fit him, I didn’t realize that once you hit 6 you didn’t get fun stuff anymore   He loved them though, because they came with a few new pairs of Spongebob pajamas.  Reagan wasn’t too happy with that, anything Spongebob is HERS and only HERS!!  She’s a freak for him still.  She calls him “Bob Bob Bobby” LOL it’s hilarious.  Well she calmed down once she saw that they had “Cars” slippers at Wal Mart.  She had to have them, man I love her… such a tomboy   They’re adorable slippers too, I took a pic of her in them to show you… but I can’t find where it ended up.  O-well.  So since I had the good mood moving in, I decided it was finally time to get our Christmas video made… last year I bought one of the Jib Jab Elf Yourself videos, as you all probably remember LOL.  It was a huge hit so I had another go with it.  I didn’t finish it until tonight, I had to find a better pic of Reagan because she apparently hated the first one I did.  She just sat and SCREAMED at the top of her lungs through it.  Now she seems happy, and they make me play it non stop.  Have a peek at it if you’d like, I can never get enough of Izzy’s ears… I keep joking saying that his ears were made for me to do this LOL.

That one is always my favorite, love seeing Mark disco LOL. They had a couple new ones this year, but I fought for the disco. The kids both wanted one where we all sang Christmas songs, but meh. I wasn’t feeling it. I’m not sure if it was the video itself, or just that I couldn’t understand what we were supposed to be singing. Every time I played it Izzy would laugh so loud, he’s all you could hear. So eventually I got annoyed with it LOL. I should give it another chance… Ok, here I’ll watch it again and let you see it too.

Nah, it’s still annoying me… it’s funny but it’s no disco

So I did get some sleep that night by the way.  When I did I had the most redonkulous dream too.  I’m thinking it gave me inspiration and maybe now there’s big things in store for Disasterpiece Studios!  I don’t know what my issue was because it’s only happened to a few photos that I can even think of… but apparently I had issue with Mark’s butt crack ruining one that I really liked?   I don’t know, all I know is that I had a dream that I started a service on my blog here that would take your cherished photos that have been ruined by your husbands pants falling down just far enough to show some crack… and I would make the butt crack look like a flower pot growing flowers.  Yes, yes I did. The extraction dork that I am, I would extract pretty flowers from other pictures and I would “plant” them in butt cracks to save many family photos.  Laugh at me if you must… but this service blew up HUGE… EVERYONE was ordering these from me LOL!  We ended up rich and in a mansion by the end of the dream… all because you wanted me to turn your hubby’s butt crack into a flower pot.  I have issues, this I know.  I will gladly accept that for dreams like that one though… getting to tell stories like that to my husband and son are the best LOL.  I had Izzy laughing so hard that no sound was coming out of his mouth.  I always know I did a good job if that happens

Well enough torturing you with my stupidity tonight   I think it’s time for me to get back to work and try to make some more goodies for you to scrap with.  Sound good?  I’m hoping to be back tomorrow or on Christmas Eve with a little freebie for you, just haven’t quite finished it up yet.  Take care all, thanks for stopping by!

Good morning!  Hope you’re doing well on this cold December morning   Today is running a bit smoother than yesterday, so the blogging is coming first so it doesn’t get put last like it has been lately.  My days just seem to get crazier as they pass.  I wake up with a plan in mind and things end up as far away from that as you can imagine.  Like yesterday, I woke up with the plan to get a few ads made to get ready for new releases in my stores today, and then I planned on working on a few projects to get ahead for the week instead of running late like I seem to be ALL the time anymore. Instead the phone rings early in the morning and that pretty much took away anything I needed to do for the day.  The stress of it brought on a horrible migraine and I ended up taking 3 naps before 6pm… before I finally just gave in and went to bed for good.  I think I woke up around 1 or 2 a.m. and *tried* to come to life but, yeah this screen can be quite bright in the dark so it didn’t take long before I was back in bed LOL.  So any way, I have no ads made for today… but I’m going to just post them the old way and say hi to you guys and get on with it   I think we’re going to get some shopping done today too.  Tomorrow they’re having a pajama day at school for Izzy and I swore to myself I was getting him new slippers before then LOL.  I don’t know if that thought brings you the flashback from last Christmas and those stupid elf slippers that he has?  A little refresher in case you’re a new visitor or just block my lame stories out of your mind.  Last year Mark grabbed a pair of slippers for Izzy as he shopped late at night after a long day at work.  They were cute, little elf heads and the noses flashed red when you walk.  Well, I noticed when getting ready to wrap them, that they were a womens slipper, and a size 7 LOL.  So I left them aside, didn’t wrap them… and both kids found them and fell in love with them on Christmas morning.  See how silly they are, here’s a shot of Reagan from Christmas morning 2008:

It’s hilarious seeing Reagan in them, but disturbing that Isaac wears them so much.  Nothing like a 6 year old boy who loves to hang out in his undies and light up elf slippers.  I also don’t feel they’re all that appropriate for a 6 year old boy to wear to school for the entire day LOL… so a shopping for slippers I will go today.  So… I guess I should get on with my stuff here in case any of you want to go shopping huh?!  My sales are going to be over before I stop the blabbing.  So I’ve got 3 new products out today, 2 at TDC and 1 at DSV.  Would’ve been 2 at each, but honestly I totally FORGOT I made another one.  How sad is that?!  I had this idea the other night, made it, scanned it, loved it, extracted it and got it ready.  Then thought I would include the other stuff I put out today WITH it.  So I work on that stuff, get it all done… and then last night had a dream about the first product!  I woke up and seriously couldn’t believe the one thing that motivated my other new products was totally forgotten!  Oh well, there’s at least something already finished for next week right!?  LOLOL, I wonder if I’ll ever get my brain back.  So first up, here’s what’s new at TDC today.  Remember each new release is 20% off Thursdays AND Fridays at The Digichick!!  First up I did a pack of flowers that were Nicole inspired, and actually one of them is a flower of hers that I scanned LOL.  How’s that for inspiration, items directly from the Sugarplum herself   She sent me a little goodie package of assorted things when she was getting ready to move.  I love it, it was a package of inspiration and ideas.  With this one, she was on the lookout for flowers that had 5 or more petals.  I had a few so I am hoping this will make her a happy skwerl

Next up is a new pack of silky shiny ribbons, which are one of my favorite things to make

Those are both at TDC for 20% off today and tomorrow so if you’re interested, now’s the time to head over!

Then at DSV I released a new pack of painted overlays, which are also on sale for 20% off for the next few days.   Also what I haven’t gotten off my butt to tell you is that everything that was in the CU grab bag I did with Kim B. is and will continue to be on sale for 40% off until after Christmas   Let me show you all of what is on sale!  Here’s my new overlays that are 20% off today:

Now in case you didn’t get a good look at the products that were in our grab bag, these are the items I had included.  Each is on sale now for 40% off !

*phew*  LOL, that’s a lot of stuff when I’m used to making my ads that make blogging super fast in times like these LOL!  Of course the amount of stuff to blog about adds up when you don’t get a chance to post regularly either!  One more thing I want to add to this before I shut up today is to remind you of the DSV monthly collab!  This month there were 8 of us that contributed, so you get 8 new products for $8!  Here’s some previews of what it’s all about this month:

Designers included are: Me (Disasterpiece Studios), Kim B., GS Creations, Redju, Armina Designs, Charlie’s Digiscraps, Laitha, and Kalo Designs.  It’s only available until Dec. 31st so make sure you check it out!

Ok, well that’s it for me today!  Off to get those slippers so Izzy isn’t *elf*in it to school tomorrow LOL.  I’m keeping my fingers crossed I can find something cool.  Looking yesterday, the store we were at only had 2 pairs of boy slippers…both lame and neither in his size.  Have a great day, thanks for stopping by
