This weeks Limited Digi Deal release!

The digi sales were so popular I decided to continue giving you digi lovers more opportunities!  I won't be doing a Limited Digi release every week, but I will be giving you all special offers, sales and deals every now and again!

I explained before that I had fears about digis (cause of the sharing, and re-selling and re-distributing we have discovered).   I still have fears!  However, I can't be fearful forever.  So here are the top two most requested digis tonight!

Playtime Jude: these will be available in digi form from tonight until Sunday night March 4th.  After the digis have been taken down they will only be available in rubber.

 Teen Scenes Kitchen Fun!  These are even more limited as you have only about 3 1/2 days to purchase these!  Tonight, Wed, Thus, and Friday!  After Friday they will not be available, even if they post was missed, or the post was read Saturday, any time after Friday at 11:59 PM PST they will not be available in digi under any circumstances so grab them while they are digi! Whoohoo

Have fun coloring these Digis while they are digi!  Please, please share your projects with us on our facebook page!  We will pick a monthly favorite and ask the winner to be our Guest DT for a month every month!

Here are a few guidelines to enter our challenge:

1. There must be at least 6 entires for a prize

2. It does not have to be an SBS image, but any SBS images will get 2 chances to win

3. Please link to your Halloween post, not just your blog

4. If there are 12 entries we will have 2 winners, if there are 18 we will have three winners and so on and so on, for every six entries we will choose one winner

5. Your entry must be uploaded by March 26th at 11:59 PM PST

Prize: Halloween Queen of the next Halloween challenge! You will get a badge, an image to use (SBS will choose the image for you, but it will be a fun one that may not have ever been available in digi form before, so don't miss out)!

So onto the Halloween Crew's Treats for you:

Now don't panic if you only see one, or two projects! We will be posting Halloween Treat Bag projects all week long ;)

By request Limited Digis extended..

Ok, ok I will extend the LIMITED DIGIs of The Bettys series 2 through the weekend!

I have had an overwhelming amount of emails asking me to please leave them up until Sunday, as many of you have friends that may have not yet seen the Limited DIGI release.

Also, here are a few answers to your other questions...

Yes, the stamps will be re-released in April, but only in rubber.

Yes, I will have them in both packaged and full sheet form.

No, I do not wish to have the digis used for classes as it would be sharing.

Yes, more Bettys still to come in a later future.

Yes, the files will be directly emailed by me via email as I receive the orders, please allow at least 24 hours from when you ordered for the delivery of your digis via email.  24 hours is a high number, I usually email them a lot quicker, I am just making sure I cover myself with plenty of time in case I am away from my computer or have internet issues, or anything unpredictable.

I hope I have covered everyone's answers!  Come back through out the weekend to see what the DT has whipped up as fast as they can with the new Bettys!

Thank you all so much for the support.  

Last but certainly not least the most important question I got via email today... Christian is doing amazing!  He has three, THREE weeks of radiation left.  Everything has been going perfect on his blood work ups, his X-Rays, his follow ups... everything!  I thank god, my family, my friends, and all of you my wonderful online blogging friends and wonderful customers for the love and support you have all shown my son, my family and I.  It is a true blessing to know how very caring this community is.  Even to a stranger, as I was a stranger before many of you got to know me through this crafting world and through my son's illness.  An illness that is so terminal at times, and yet at other times can be beat!  Every situations is different, and I am so thankful to report that my son's was certainly not terminal and I can safely assume that he has beaten this disease as many in his situation have.  Thank you, so very much everyone from the very bottom of my heart for the support and caring words, constant prayers, and constant emails of thought and well wishes.  We are doing marvelous!  

To all my DT gals, every single one past and present thank you so much for the support!  There were days I couldn't have made it without you girls!  

Have a marvelous and happy weekend everyone!

Betty and the gals!

Altering with SBS

Well hello all you happy crafters out there!  Today I am one very, very Happy crafter.  We had a snow storm from yesterday till today, that means I was stuck without internet for hours at a time... so I had nothing better to do than craft away!

I was recently invited to an awesome hop (coming soon) and it has to do with altering stuffs!  So, I got a brilliant idea... what if I could alter a t-shirt that my kids could wear when we are out and about, with my images... hmmmm that would be free advertising right?  

So, I could find a perfect t-shir and didn't want to go the iron route anyway... so..... Rio, my darling daughter you all know right?  She had this tan sun hat that I just hated cause it was tan... why not black or pink or something right?  I am not a tan hat type of person.  

Boring Tan hat!

No problem, I have Tattered angels, bottle caps, Tim Holtz bit and pieces of fun stuff, diamond glaze, some flowers, glitters, embossing powders, hat pins, fabric butterflies, some grunge board, and of course and SBS image.... let's see what we can do with this boring hat!!

Vavavoom! Look at what I came up with! 

Closer look at the image? Sure...

Here's another shot

I diamond glazed everything!  LOL

That's my Rio wearing her new and improved not Tan anymore Hat!

I even spritzed the flowers and threw some glitter on them1

Rio doesn't want to take it off anymore!  yay!  

I hope you all like these... I will be doing a kit shortly, just have to get all the stuff in, a list of materials you will need and etc.  If you are at all interested in getting a kit like this please leave a comment with your email addy, when the time comes I will email you all the deets!

 I am the one that was gifted with this child!

Ok, ok on to the hop!  Please please please wish my daughter a very Happy Birthday here!  7 lucky comments will win one stamp from our new line!  You will be surprised as I will just package a random one from our new release and mail it off should you be the winner!

How about a slice of cake?

Today I am expecially excited about this image... eeeekkkk it is taken from one of my most favorite TV sit coms as a child... of course the sit com was way before my time even as a child, but I think many in my age range will know this one!

Miller Munster! Yep from the Munsters, little Miller has turned more into Eddie Munster! He is enjoying his slice of Munster cake I am sure! It probably has spiders, bat broth, and other eekies!

Check out the fun the DT created with Miller Munster!
