Christmas Gift … and a closeout sale …

Christmas Gift {the kit}

This brand new kit is in my GingerScraps shop today, and at an unbelievable price for a brand new, full-sized kit: ONE DOLLAR!

Why??!

Because EVERYTHING in my shop is on sale for ONE DOLLAR. All month long!

It’s a special gift to all my loyal customers before I close my digiscrap shop at the end of the year.

Yes, I am closing my shop as I have decided to step back from designing digiscrap products full time. I will still occasionally offer digiscrap freebies here on my blog, along with more papercrafting and hybrid projects. I’ve decided to devote more of my time to these other favorite pastimes of mine, along with photography and my other design work, including website design and more. I certainly hope you will all still hang around and enjoy this slight change of direction! (You will soon be seeing a fabulous redesign on my site & blog, and I expect to have more surprises to share after the first of the year, too!)

Sooooo… that is why my shop is on sale at such super low prices! That is also why I created this very special kit for Christmas & have it marked so low – so I could show my loyal customers how much I appreciate you!

Christmas Gift has been designed so you can scrap your Christmas memories *or* print your own wrapping paper and gift tags – or do both! Either way your special moments at Christmas will be more beautiful and personal. Rich vintage colors and textures accent every paper and embellishment in this very special kit. And I’ve even included full printable PDF sheets of tags in two styles to make your gift-giving even easier!

Christmas Gift {the kit} includes:

And here’s the coordinating Christmas Gift template pack (available separately for, yep, just $1!):

I also have a totally adorable new mini kit for this month’s GingerScraps Buffet: Who Village! And, yes, it’s just $1 also!

All the designers have created coordinating packs on the Who-Village theme – don’t miss these!

I also have another brand new collection at GingerScraps, but I can’t show it to you… WHY? It’s the December “Free With Purchase” Grab Bag! Just spend $10 on *any*thing at GingerScraps and you can get this fabulous grab bag. I guarantee you will be thrilled with all you find in here!

And here’s a look at ALL you can find in my shop for just $1 per product … get them now before they are GONE for good!

Oooh, and I have just one more thing for you today – it’s a *freebie* set of fun Christmas gift tags in PDF format that you can print and cut out for use on your Christmas gifts! I printed mine on lightweight white cardstock here at home – they’re all ready to go on our gifts! Just click the image below to download your printable! Enjoy!!

Blessings to you!

PGD 12 Days of Christmas … Day #11 + EEG Was Nice

Honestly, I was very pleasantly surprised at how the EEG went yesterday – not at all the cold hospital-like setting I expected. Rather, it was a small cozy office with a large black recliner for Jim to relax in (he had to be sleep-deprived for the test, & *boy* was he!), a pretty little settee for me to sit on with a nice little side table and lamp, soft music and soft lighting. Very nice. The gal was very sweet who conducted the test, and the 1 1/2 hours passed quickly. Watching Jim rest, and even sleep, for half an hour was interesting – I am glad I was able to be in there for the entire deal … that’s something else I didn’t expect. In two weeks we meet with the doctor again to discuss the findings of all these tests. Looking forward to it!

On to the digi stuff … :D

So have you all been madly collecting the awesome Christmas freebies at PGD? (Like Sherrie’s Candy Cane Lane Alpha?? Hurry over – it might still be free for a bit longer this morning! :D) We still have a few more goodies to share, so don’t miss them! And be sure to check out the PGD Holiday Guide for more great digi stuff – including PGD Gift Certificates. :D

I am off & running again today (*thought* this was my day to get some things done around here, but ah well) … have to take Justin’s snowboard to town when he & Aaron & friends arrive up from Moscow to go up to Schweitzer. Later today, it looks like Jim & I will make another trip in to town as we were invited to drop in at the Sheriff’s Office Christmas Party. whew! :)

Be safe out there on the wintry roads, folks, and have a great day!

PGD 12 Days of Christmas … Day #10 + Off & Running Again

Life is hectic right now! I know it probably is for most of you as it is the holiday season, though I truly hope not. Peace and tranquility are so much nicer. As for us, with family visits and medical trips, we are doubling up! :) We are off to another medical appointment in Spokane today – 4+ hours round trip driving, plus Jim has to be sleep-deprived for the EEG, so extra rough for him. We’re just praying they learn the cause of all Jim has been suffering these many months! :)

And now, for the Christmas goodies! :D Wow! I cannot believe it is Day 10 of our celebration – it is flying by! So be sure to get on over to PGD quick and get the good stuff! :D

Have a wonderful day folks, and don’t forget to SMILE – big and often! It definitely helps to lighten the load! :D

God bless!

PGD 12 Days of Christmas … Day #8 Freebies + Airport Fiasco

Well, with all the busyness yesterday of fetching my son, Justin, from the airport, I neglected to realize that Day 7’s designer freebie was *mine*! lol If any of you are up bright & early this morning, though, you *may* just find it still available for free a bit longer this morning before Sherrie changes to today’s freebie. If you don’t get there quick enough, however, you can get my adorable Felt Christmas Ornaments for just $1.50! Enjoy

And while you are at PGD, be sure to grab today’s the Gypsy Girls QP freebie, too!

 

For those of you who were collecting Carol Zeitz’s 8 Crazy Nights, I hope you had a wonderful Chanukah … and remember, her last piece of the kit will be available through 5:59pm tonight! :D

Our time at the airport yesterday was interesting, and though it was challenging, we managed to keep good attitudes … our son, Justin, arrived safe & sound 1/2 an hour early – we were thrilled! Then we waited for his luggage, and waited, and waited. An hour later we were still waiting as an occasional new piece would come through, and we kept hoping someone might come man the counter for baggage claims. They didn’t. We went searching. Another 1/2 hour and we finally found someone who would help us. I wish I’d caught the man’s name – he was very caring & concerned, and he spent an hour on the phone and the computer getting a worldwide search for Justin’s luggage, and even typing in the entire claim for Justin rather than making him do it himself at home. So, 2 1/2 hours after his arrival, we left the airport praying the luggage would be found & would arrive at our home very quickly. Justin’s snowboard & equipment was in it, plus several Christmas gifts, not to mention his other Navy uniform and such. An hour after leaving, Justin phoned the claimsline number he’d been given. He spent 1/2 an hour on hold, but eventually they said his luggage had been found! :D Of course, it was clear back in Minneapolis. :P We are praying they will keep their word and have it delivered to us today. :D

After all that, we grabbed a bite to eat at Arby’s – they didn’t have one of those in Connecticut and Justin had been craving Arby’s for months! :D Then, back in Sandpoint, Justin accompanied his dad in WalMart to do a small bit of Christmas shopping – and of course they ran in to lots of folks we know, so had some nice visits through the store. Next, we stopped over to Home Depot so Justin could say hello to many of his former workmates there. It was a very nice time, and while it had been a very long day for Jim and he was wearing some, he really held up pretty well, all things considered. He definitely was enjoying the time with Justin and with visiting folks. :D

Coming Home

Have a wonderful day, folks! :)
