12 Days of Christmas Giveaway....

2011-12-12T14:15:00.001-06:00

Missed downloads....I have been hearing from people that Craft Crave didn't find my freebie until Day 6 so everyone that found this giveaway from there missed the first 5 days. I want everyone to have the opportunity to get all of the downloads so I have two options. Option 1, go to Berry Sweet Scraps, complete a challenge (between now and December 31st), make sure you set up a challenge tracker and all that good stuff and then let me know (PM me from the Berry Sweet forum, leave a comment here, or email me) and I will send you the link to the first 5 days. Option 2 is that you can wait until December 30th and purchase all 12 days during the grand opening at Berry Sweet Scraps, everything is going to be 50% off so it will be very inexpensive.

If you haven't "Liked" BADScraps on Facebook, make sure you do. I just posted another piece of Splash of Lime (the previous ones are still available). I need 24 more fans and the 4th download will be available.

12 Days of Christmas Giveaway

2011-12-11T15:32:00.001-06:00

18 Days away from the grand opening of Berry Sweet Scraps! Make sure you get signed up in the forum and check out the challenges.

Also, if you missed a day of downloads, don't worry. All you need to do is complete one of the Berry Sweet Challenges and let me know (email me, leave a comment here, or PM me from the Berry Sweet forum) and I will give you 2 days of downloads for each challenge you complete. If you have already done a challenge and let me know, I will send you your missing day(s) this week. I got way behind this weekend:)

Sidewalk Chalk...

2010-05-09T21:54:00.000-05:00

Today's freebie is called Sidewalk chalk. I created this little mini kit with the idea I would scrap all of the pictures I was going to take of my boys drawing on the driveway. Unfortunately, I haven't taken any pictures yet:) The last couple of days it has been rainy and cold and we haven't even gone outside to play at all. I'll have to get my kids outside this week to so they can create some masterpieces. Happy Monday Everyone!

Download Sidewalk Chalk HERE

FREEBIE Day 3!!

2010-05-08T20:59:00.000-05:00

I hope everyone is enjoying Sweet 'N Sassy up to this point. Today I have the second half of the element for you. Tomorrow I will be posting a little add-on/mini kit that I put together. I was inspired by my boys drawing on the driveway with chalk so the kit is called Sidewalk Chalk, but it is the same color palette as Sweet 'N Sassy so they can mix and match. Here is a layout I did using the two kits.

Five Days of Downloads

2010-05-07T12:59:00.003-05:00

Who Hoo! It's ready! Plus, in the mean time I came up with a little add-on kit. But that's not all...a member of my creative team made quick pages that we are giving away as well. Thank you Stacy! I decided to make this fun and give away part of the kit each day for the next five days. Today (day 1) you can pick up the papers, days two and three are elements, day 4 is the add-on, and day 5 quick pages. My Creative Team came up with some awesome layouts, great job girls! The first one was done by my sweet 11 year old niece, isn't it so cute?

I hope you enjoy Sweet 'N Sassy, I had a lot of fun designing it.

A few more things to do...

2010-05-04T22:34:00.000-05:00

This afternoon I looked at my blog post and thought, this is a super boring blog! I guess I have more work to do, design a cute blog, create a blinkie and a blinkie for my Creative Team. Good thing I finished up my last couple of elements tonight. I will work on getting this blog lookin' good in the next couple of days while my CT is having fun with the new kit. I will give them a little while to create and then will be posting it for everyone to download.

Introducing BAD Scraps!

2010-05-04T13:51:00.000-05:00

Welcome to Bonnie Allen Designs (aka BAD Scraps). I'm currently working on my first kit that will soon be available as a FREEBIE, right here on my blog. I'm finishing up some elements and my CT is working on a couple of layouts, but in the mean time here is a little sneek peak.

This picture of my family was taken at the Split Rock Lighthouse near Duluth, MN. I'm thinking we should find someone to take another photo of us, this is from last summer! Those cute little twin boys are now 22 months old. Because I'm chasing my little guys around the house most of the day, I don't always get lot of time to design so hopefully the kit wil be finished up in the next couple of days, but I can't guarantee anything:)

Thanks for stopping by!
Bonnie
