It's a Christmas in July SALE!

Are you ready for Christmas? I know the sun is shining and the weather is warm so Christmas is probably the last thing on your mind right? Well it's 6 months away and we'll be singing Christmas carols before you know it! So to get you in the Christmas spirit I've put many of my Christmas files on sale. Click on the previews below to purchase the files. Be early this year! Happy Holidays! LOL!









I also want to share with you two cards that cleverly show how Christmas/Winter files can be used year round if you just think out of the box a little just like my CDT members did.

First up is a card that shows how CDT member Lisa Lindesmith used my Christmas word charms pictured above to do a greeting on this great floral card. I love how she put the dragonfly in the charm loop giving the card a very warm weather vibe. The charms are a great value at $1.15 for the whole month of July. Click here to purchase.



Next up is this wonderfully unique card by fellow PT forum member Deb Cole. It combines my 3-D butterflies file and I love you card file into an elegant greeting. When I first saw this card I knew I had to duplicate it sometime. It combines two of my favorite things: butterflies and snowflakes.



If you'd like to make a card just like Deb's click on the photos below to purchase my files.








I'd also like to share with you a layout that is simply put CUTE! Fellow PT forum member Sue Shaff (look Sue I got it right!) did this adorable page featuring her darling grand daughter. I didn't count them but she used just about every single button in my buttons galore file. I love how the arrow button draws your attention to her cute DGD.




If you'd like to have some buttons like these of your very own. That is simple just purchase my buttons galore file by clicking on the preview below. Then you always have the perfect button to match your layout without combing through bags, jars, or drawers.



Off to work on a digital scrapbooking wedding kit. I hope you all have a wonderful day filled with Christmas spirit!

CDT member Kelly is a whiz at combining my files. Take a look at the card below to see what I mean. That border is actual from my 70's: beaded borders file and the flower is from my playful flowers, leaves and branches file. I never would have thought to combine these two files but they work great together. She also used my dotted fun sentiments file which matches the roundness of the flowers perfectly!



Click on the previews below to purchase the files Kelly used so you can make your own great card just like hers. Remember they are 50% off now through July 12, 2009 EST.







I always struggle with manly cards. So I really have to put my thinking cap on when I make one. I'm sharing this one with you in case you have the same problem. My BIL got this one and he is a big fan of motorcyles so I decided to go with Harley Davidson colors. I think it turned out pretty well. I used my all purpose sentiments file. I also cut grungeboard with my tags galore file. It cut with ease and was very easy to change the color simply by inking. (click here for a great deal on grungeboard) The twine and brads add to the masculine feel.



If like any of the files I used on my MANLY card...click on the previews below to purchase them at 50% off now through Juy 12, 2009 EST.





If you'd like to purchase both sentiments shown today at a grand price. I have 4 sentiment files packaged in a collection. It is a great deal at $3.15 now through July 12, 2009 EST.



I know I promised you a preview of a new file coming soon to my store but this post is long enough so that will have to wait for another day.

Thanks for looking, reading, and shopping! It makes me smile to know you like my files enough to purchase them!

My birds have flocked all over cards in my card sketch challenge on PT. Here are a few examples from Paperthreads Forum members.



Don't you just love that little bow tie! Great job!

Just the Basics, vacations membership, and CDT creations.

Hi Everyone,
I hope you are all enjoying your Summer. It is glorious not to have to tote everyone to school and not having to bundle them up for cold weather. I'm looking forward to a 4th July picnic. It gives me an excuse to be off my diet for a day! LOL! I love firework photos too so that is another bonus of this holiday. Let Freedom Ring!

I know many of us are struggling with finances lately. So I created a file collection that contains all the cutter files you use the most in scrapbooking and card making at a grand price. It will be on sale starting tomorrow for 50% off the original money saving price. That's a steal..you get 8 files for about $1.60 a piece. Click on the picture below to check it out in my Paperthreads store. All of these files are available in GSD, KNK, AI, WPC, and SVG format.



Of course I realize you may not want to buy the whole collection especially if you've bought any of the files separately in the past. So you can get them all individually in my Paperthreads store. I've posted the newest ones below you can find the rest in my store. Click on the preview to check out the details and/or purchase.







I've been busy creating more files that are only available through the vacations and getaway membership at Paperthreads. I'll give you sneak peak of them below. I have 3 more to do to fulfill my membership obligations so I'll post them here as I get them done.





Like what you see?! Good now go over and buy that membership. Click on the AD below to purchase. It's a great deal as you get 50 files for only $15.00. Also, it is for an even greater cause. A fellow PT designer's husband is battling cancer and is unable to provide for their family of 8 so every dime of this membership goes to her family.



I'd like to share with you a stunning layout fellow PT forum member Pat created using my number charms file. It's just so fabulous! I love the colors she used and the stitching! Thanks Pat for sharing your layout with me! Click on the photo to see the layout larger.



If you want to do a layout similar to Pat's then click on the preview below to purchase my number charms file. It's also great for adding dates to layouts or ages to cards.



My Creative Design Team has been busy being very creative lately and I'd like to share with you some of their wonderful projects.




Would you believe both ladies used my 3-D butterflies file to achieve two totally different but grand looking cards? Lisa actually cut out two butterflies one in cardstock and the other out of acetate then stamped it and added jewels to the body to achieve a very elegant look. Click on the preview below to purchase the butterflies. Elizabeth cut the butterfly out of yellow cardstock plus the included butterfly accent out of white. She then added doodles with a black pen. She used my bracket fun file also (scroll up to see the preview of that file). The embossed paper paired with the doodled butterfly and inked brackets gives her card a very whimsical fun look!



Gotta get back to file making. Talk to you again soon! Have a glorious day!
