Back Again...With Updates and Freebies!

Hello.  It's been a criminally long time since I've posted, but I'm happy to be back now with a greater measure of sleep, sanity and creative mojo!  Thanks for puttin' up with my absence!  Let me hit the highlights of the last few weeks...and then, on to the freebie! 

First, the October/Novemeber double issue of Scrapbook News and Review is available now, and you really shouldn't miss this one.  It's huge!  I have a fab article (if I do say so myself) in it about Seasonal Photo Opportunities, as well as about 18 other layouts and projects!  Get this...I'm starting to dabble a bit in digital inchies and ATC!  Crazy talk, I know, but it's a fun change of pace.  Here are a couple sneak peeks of what you'll see in the issue:

Sweet, huh?  It gets even better, because I have a layout on the SNR Homepage right now, too!  And, to top it all off, the publication of the Holiday Sampler is quickly approaching on November 28.

Sarah at SAS Designs has been a busy lady, too, releasing a bunch of new kits, grab bags for October and November, and an exclusive kit for her spotlight month at Two Little Pixels.  Again, here are just a few examples of the great stuff she's been doing!  The credits are linked, so feel free to click through to her stores and pick up your own copies!

And, finally...this week's SAS Designs release is "Cupcake Sweetie," a bright brithday-themed kit.  To celebrate it (and my triumphant return to blogging,) I've made a frame cluster freebie for you!  You get both the red-candle and blue-candle versions in the download.  Enjoy!
