Awesome Offers at Scrap Orchard!

Hey there dear guys!
This week has been a hectic one for me... Both me and DH are really exhausted - first, it turned out that my Grandma has beeen suffering from a bladder stone infection for a couple of days and we had to take her (she's 78) to the hospital. We went there every day because this stuff had to be diagnosed first, and then only today she stayed there for five days - the're planning to reduce the iflammation, then she'll spend some time at home and after that they'll tell whether a surgery is needed... The thing is that she also has diabetes and sometimes it's a hard decision for the surgeon. I love her and I'm awefully worried.
Secondly, DD somehow managed to catch a cold! Ohmy I don't know what ELSE we could do to prevent that - it's sooo hot in our house , and rather warm outside and we put really warm clothes on - but - voila! - that lady is running around me now laughing and sniffing with her little nose cuz it's watering... funny for her, huh!
And at last, I had SO much to do this week that I can barely imagine it myself!
I've had PILES of orders on my Custom Glam Girlies and it seems like everyday I drew about three of them! LOL I'm happy with this tho!
Besides, I have two new kits released this week - one of them is the extension of my Autumn Festival freebie (I had lots of requests to send it to the store and since I thought it was too small for that LOL I turned it into a full kit) and another is the funky doodled one, called Let Love Grow:

And for a limited time only (the offer expires October, 31) with your purchase of Let Love Grow page kit you get the coordinating bracket album FREE!!!
This is not all!!! I also have two collabs this week!! One of them is with Kami of Ziggle designs and it is such a yummy treat for pet geeks!!! :)

Want a coordinating album for FREE??? That's our special offer with the kit purchase this week!

And finally... my fabulous altered art collaboration with amazing Shauna of Pineapple Plantation Designs called Fairy Special - and yes, it's a Fairy Special kit with which you get a Fairy Special order this week only - another coordinating brag book for free with purchase!!!


Oh! How could I forget! Imagine - all of this stuff is 20% off ALL WEEK!!!!!
OFF: Hmm... really the longest post I've ever made! :)
Hugs to each and every one of you - stay on guard for awesome DSD activities soon! :)
I promise I'll be hosting a fun challenge at Scrap Orchard! :)
Have a great week!
Irene

Repaired Links+ NEW STUFF!!!



Hello dear guys!
So I've got the news regarding the invalid links for some of my former freebies.
I've contacted the 4shared service and they told me these files were damaged (I still wonder why). They said they were sorry for inconveneince and all. But still can't get it how on earth they got damaged??? LOL

Anyway, I have repaired links for the three kits - Ride A Dream, Peas In A Pod, Hot Chick.

Sorry I couldn't repair Mexicana and Get Doggy since these files are no longer on my HD. But the ones which were a success are now downloadable again - the links stayed the same!

Well, have another great news for you! I've launched my newset stuff at the Scrap Orchard store - guess what? YOu might remember a poll about the custom made items - well, I started the custom made line! And here's my first product in this category:



But that is not all - I've also released and funky and doodled Alice-In-Wonderland kit!


Btw, since these items are in Fresh Fruit, they're 20% off... so what are you waiting for? LOL

Hugs and kisses to ya!
Irene

If you missed the first coupon piece...

Hello guys,

I have received some very nice comments regarding the firt day Autumn Festival freebie - thanks you sincerely for your appreciation of my work! This means so much to me and I'm happy to share with you since this puts a smile on my fice and makes me happier too!
Still I also received a couple of very frustrating comments from those who didn't find a coupon code inside.
We're sorry for inconvenience - Kami has replaced the zip later that day if you were checking the forums.
Besides, if want to get the coupon you'll have to grab all the 7 freebies - so if you checked the next freebie thread at SO: http://scraporchard.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3296 or the Scrap Orchard blog you would find the previous missing coupon there.

Cheers,
Irene

TDS freebie extended!!

Hello dear guys!!!

I have wonderful little news - since many of you emailed or pm'd me asking what the trouble with Strawberricious mini kit download at TDS was - I'm answering you here!

It had so many downloads (YAY!!!) that they exceeded the bandwidth and some of you started getting the error messages.

So the TDS staff made a decision to extended the deadline to download my freebie - it will be available until the last day of the publication!!! Hurray!!! :)

So go and get your little Strawberricious gift :)

But this is not all!!!
I so wanted to share this kit with you - previously it was two minis which I combined into one manly medieval kit - I think it will be perfect for fantasy layouts or Renaissance fair pictures. Most part of the elements of the kit are drawn by hand.



And... check out for my store for new goodies on Friday - Kami of Ziggle Designs and I have a superfabulous collab (my first ever!! LOL) and - TADA!! - I have turned my Wishing on a Flower mini into a full kit and it will be available in store on Friday!



And don't forget that I also started making fonts - I already have one in my store, and have another one coming one Friday! Btw, all of my fonts are commercial use free products - you don't have to buy extra license to use them in your designs! :)
And, to crown it all, all these goodies will be priced at 20% OFF!!!
Hope I made you smile a little - sometimes the beginning of the week make us moody and lacking energy.. (yawn - I'm really sleepy) LOL!!!
My smootches to all of you,
Irene
