Just dropping a quick note to let you all know that I have 2 blog trains coming up in a couple of days, and 1 more in a couple of weeks. The Valentine Blog Train will be arriving at the station on January 31st, just after midnight, and with it will be bringing a bunch of awesome freebies in beautiful colors. The designers were given 2 different color themes that they could work with, and we could choose either one, or both, or a little from both - whatever we wanted. I chose this pink palette (believe it or not, I didn't go with purple! LOL):
Then, on February 1st, we will have another blog train heading this way. I am participating in the monthly ADSD collaboration and for February we will be doing a Valentine themed kit called Chocolate Cherry. Sounds good, huh? Here are the colors we used:
And then, on February 14th, we will have the Valentine Convoy swinging by, with more wonderful creations by many talented designers. I'm sure you all will have a fun time, snagging all the parts to this great train!
So keep your eyes open for the post on the 31st about the Valentine Blog Train so you can be sure to grab those freebies!!
Until then....
Good Evening everyone!
It is a brisk, cold January evening here and winter is definitely in the air! Just a couple of days ago it was in the 70s, and I was actually hanging clothes out on the line (our dryer broke down several months ago so we've been either hanging the clothes or going to the local laundromat). I still have a load left to do so guess its a trip to the laundromat I go! LOL
I also have a new item in the store and wanted to let you all know about it. They are tie dye flowers, and they looks very retro, very 60s. They remind me of a favorite tie dye t-shirt that I use to have, many moons ago. I loved that shirt and hated to get rid of it, however I really couldn't wear it anymore with a huge hole in the middle where my stomach was! I would love to find another shirt like that. It was so comfy and soft! Here is a preview of the flowers:
And they can be found HERE.
And now, for the reason I know you are most likely here for, my portion of the Winter Convoy. I had a lot of fun making the items and putting it together. Here is a preview of my part of this convoy:
My part has 8 papers and 13 elements. I hope you like them as much as I liked making them for you all! Here are the download links:
FULL SIZE PAPERS: 12 inch x 12 inch, 300 ppi, png format with matching jpgs

ELEMENTS: 300 ppi, png format only

*AND* while not officially part of the convoy, I did also make tagger sized papers and elements, for those who visit my blog looking for tagger sized items. Here is the link for them:
TAGGER SIZE PAPERS: 600 pixels x 600 pixels, png format with matching jpgs

Thanks again for visiting and be sure to check back often if you like what you see! I have other blog trains coming up in the next couple of weeks, as well as some freebies heading this way and new store items!!
Take care and have a wonderful day/evening!!
**EDITED 1/26/09: The elements link - above - was incorrect, it was taking you to the elements for the Winter Wonderland Elements (blog train post is here for that: http://purpledragonflycreations.blogspot.com/2008/12/walkin-in-winter-wonderland.html) . The link for the elements, above, has been corrected and should NOW take you to the elements for the Winter Convoy kit. My apologies for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused.**
Hello everyone!
I just wanted to write a quick few lines to let you know that I recently donated some time and energy in working on a collaboration with several other talented designers for a charity kit to benefit those affected with the disease called Ectodermal Dysplasias (ED) which can affect not just the skin, but the "sweat glands, hair, teeth, and nails." Lady V posted about her desire to get this charity kit rolling as not only is she affected with it, she has a few family members also dealing with it. When I read about her family I wanted to do what I could to help, and I feel very honored to have been able to take part in the kit.
The kit is still coming together, however you can read about it's current status on Lady V's blog, here. The kit is going to be called "Lifting Hopes" and the theme of the kit was items that 'lift', or lift hope, like balloons, and planes. My contribution consists of 5 papers and 4 elements, which you can see here:
When I find out the details about the kit - when it is going up for sale, where, etc - then I will be sure to post it here so you can help support this worthy cause.
As for what else is going on with me, I've been working very hard on quite a few different scrap things for you all! I have 3 Valentine-related scrap trains coming up next month and one at the end of this month that is winter-related, so be sure to keep your eyes open for them, because they all should be full of wonderful snags! While I can't show you my preview YET for my part of the Winter Convoy, I can give you a little sneak peek of the colors we used:
And I can let you know that I have 8 papers and 13 elements for you all!!
Well, it is about time that I finish this up so I can head to bed. I need to be up in a few hours to get my daughter up and ready for school. Hope you all have a wonderful day/evening (whatever it is in your part of the world). Be sure to check out Lady V's blog and also check back here for new things to snag!!
Until later...
Hello everyone and Happy 2009!
I'll make this short and sweet as I'm sure you are here to pick up my part of the ADSD Frostee Collab Kit. This kit is made with very pretty, muted tones of medium to light blues. I'm sure you will like it. I admit, I had a bit of a challenge trying to come up with elements for this, however once I got started, I just sort of sailed through them!
Here is the preview for my part of the kit:
My portion has 10 papers and 15 elements.
The bows in my kit were made with a script from Jennie at Jennie's World.
Her link can also be found in the "Resources" area on the right side of my blog.
Her TOU is also included in the Elements zipfile.
