Busy Bee

I've been hard at work the last month creating lots of new goodies, throwing in a weekend trip or two with the family, helping at the girls' school as the year winds down (only 4 1/2 days left), spending too many hours at the dentist, and frantically treading water trying to make sure I keep my head up! I've been terrible at keeping my new products posted! Hopefully this will get me up to date so you know everything I've been working on :D

To start with I'll show you what I have new this week .... I'm not going to link each product image, but you can find them all in MY SHOP!

*NEW* This fun bag will give you a way to present just about anything!

*NEW* Create a one-of-a-kind cover for your one gallon paint can using this layered template!


Wanna make a *splash* on your pages {or should I say a *SPILL*}? These bits of sparkle will give you that little something special you're looking for!

A bright, springy, and textured alpha make for a fun addition to just about any page!

OUCH!

Guess it really has been that long since I updated ... SHEESH!! Life just plugs along and runs away without giving me warning sometimes! I've added a few new goodies this past month that I wanted to share and also have some *BIG* news straight from jessicasprague.com!!

First up, I created a fun little box just perfect for any Easter celebration. You can customize this "Egg-ceptional Cup" in so many ways or use the eggs all on their own to make cards, a matching game, or jewelry ... endless possibilities, right?
Next up came my Save the Date vol. 2 set of date strips. I was *so* excited with the way these came out and I can't wait to get some scrapping done so I can use them!!

Last, but certainly not least, I've added another set of card templates to my Card Couture collection ... perfect to get your card making juices flowing ;) All 4 templates come in a variety of .psd formats as well as a set of .png files for each cardfront for those who may not use Photoshop or Elements.
Ready for the *BIG* news?!? Jessicasprague.com is having a Creative Team call!!

Lots of Goodies

WOW ... life has a way of speeding by when there are love filled holidays, days off of school, and lots of design work involved! I've got lots of previews to share from the past 2 weeks and, of course, it's One Buck Wednesday!!! I'll start with that ;)

Most of us are on the lookout for a fun and unique way to "Save the Date" on our scrapbook pages ... it is one easy way to help us record when our memories happened! This simple date set allows you to choose exactly how YOU want to use it! Yours for only $1 until 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time.
Now onto some of the other products that have been keeping me busy ...

I released lots of printable goods the past few weeks - perfect for those times when you want something fabulous and just don't have the time to create it yourself! My Consider it DONE line is my answer to that and I've given you a mailbox wrapper, a heart basket, and 2 sets of candy cover ups!!
Now when you want to create that something fabulous all on your own, start by using my Gotcha Covered: Candy Cover Ups vol. 1 templates ... the perfect starting point for your outstanding custom gifts!!
Hope you enjoy all of the new products - I've had a blast creating them!

Heart Cup & Basket

WOW ... I can't believe I forgot to post about my new product last week!! Okay - I'm not completely surprised *blush* I've been working hard to get a few new things in the shop and am really happy with the way they have turned out!

Last Monday I added my Heart Cup to the shop. This one is such a fun idea for Valentine's Day, baby showers, or anything else!! I created my samples using LivE Designs' newest paper pack - Warm Wuv & Soft Hugs.


This week I'm adding two goodies to the shop!! The first is the Mailbox Template that I offered as a freebie when I did the tutorial. If you missed it you can now pick it up in the shop :)
Second, I've created another heart package just in time for the love fest coming up in a few weeks! I love the way this Heart Basket can be created with or without the handle making it extra versatile. Surprise someone you love by packaging up a little something special just for them in a custom made Heart Basket!! I created my samples using the Princesa Paper Pack & Element Pack by Jessica Sprague.
That's it for today, but I have something up my sleeve for One Buck Wednesday this week that you don't want miss! I'm also feeling the itch to do my first giveaway so make sure you stay tuned :)

Hybrid Thursday

I'm a lucky girl today ... I got to create a hybrid project for all to enjoy :) I've altered a mini mailbox that I picked up at the dollar spot at Target {truth be told I've got about 15 of them here, but who's counting, right?}. For a complete tutorial, head over to the home page at jessicasprague.com. Here are the finished results:
I love the way it turned out and am excited to make a bunch for teachers and friends! Wanna make one yourself? I've made my template into a gift for you! You can pick it up at the end of my tutorial ... just make sure you grab it before February 1st - after that you'll have to head into my shop to find it ;)

One Buck Wednesday

It's that time again ... products marked down to just a buck every Wednesday at jessicasprague.com!! This week I'm marking down my Card Couture vol. 1 template set - just in time for Valentine's Day! Need to make your special someone an extra special card? Look no further than this set of 4 templates. Mix and match your favorite papers and embellishments, print, and you're ready to show someone how much you love them :) These templates aren't limited to Valentine's Day, though ... use them for birthdays, thank yous, get wells, and any other reason you can think of to send a card! Run on over and scoop them up for 100 pennies (in honor of my daughter's 100th day of school in Kindergarten) - the sale runs until 11:59 P.M. Eastern time.

While you're there pick up these great products from LivE Designs and Creativity by Crystal ... yup - each of them is only a buck!!
P.S. You might wanna make sure to stop by the site tomorrow, too ... I'll be sharing a hybrid project that just *might* include a freebie ;)
