Stripey Office!

Sergeant Kathery reporting for duty (AWOL for 3 months), Sir!

While I was awolling, I found this great stripey pattern and decided to have a play and came up with this cute set of office accessories.

Hope you can use it!

Puffy Felt Shapes

It's been a while since either of us posted - over two months - I've had a rough time over Winter with my CFS & Kathy hurt her arm crocheting (trust her to be different).

But I'm back anyway - although I won't be posting as often as I was earlier in the year, I'll try to have at least a couple of goodies for you to download each month.

Here's some puffy felt shapes for you - recolour them, use them as overlays, whatever your imagination can dream up!

Beads Alpha

After I made those little bead letters for the Summer Solstice blog train, I kept on fiddling and made a whole bead alphabet.

The colours I used aren't the same as those of the blog train, but use the palette I'm using for a new freebie mini kit that you should be seeing here sometime before the end of July.

This is the palette I'm working with:

      

And here's the free beads alphabet:

Update:  

I'm so sorry about the mixup!

I've now added the A and the blank bead to the zip file.

And here's those images by themselves, so you don't have to download the whole lot again...

Hugs, 

Kathy :)

      

Watercolour Flowers

Some whimsical, multicoloured daisies that I painted with my watercolours the other day, then  scanned and extracted them and they turned out pretty good.

I didn't include pngs with shadows because they look best flat on a background, as if you've just painted them onto your paper yourself - you might even try setting their transparency to 80% for more effect.

Hope they're bright and cheerful enough for you!

Pastel Buttons

We used some of the same papers in last week's pink torn flowers to make these lovely pastel buttons.

10 transparent pngs (with & without dropshadows) at 300ppi.

Cross Stitch Fruits

I cross-stitched this little apple and watermelon last Summer (here in the southern hemisphere it's from December to February), and mounted them on little wooden embroidery hoops.

They looked so cute, I scanned them to see how they'd turn out, and I think the reason they came out so clear is that they're held so tightly by the hoops.

Anyway, enjoy!

There's an oval, a square and a heart-shaped frame for you to download.

CU Freebies - that's us, of course, and our freebie is below.

Karen's Scraps & Graphics


Before I show you our contribution, I'd like to show you something else.

This is my son Mr Bump, looking very shocked about who-knows-what. - but the photo itself isn't very interesting.

Now, I've used the blue-ring octopus "face frame" in our Summer Solstice freebie below, and isn't he extra cute?

I just wanted to give you an idea of how you could use this and the anemone face frame in your layouts.  Hope you like the idea!

And now, on with the freebies...

Summer Solstice extras

Since there was a mix-up about the date for the Summer Solstice blog train (it was supposed to be today, but got changed to the 25th), we've decided to release these extra bits and bobs before the blog train rides instead of after.

These are the bits we made that didn't quite fit with the main parts of our contribution, but we still think they're kind of good.

There are patterned metallic buttons and a matching bookplate, and coloured glass beads.

As always, all images are 300ppi and there are two copies of each, with & without shadows.
Enjoy!

Dotty-Blue felt frames

So, I've been making more frames, and they're scalloped ones this time.

Blue is my favourite colour, and I love the look of this dotty felt fabric.
As you can see, there's three shapes (round, oval and square), and I've included shadowed copies, too.

I'm going to make some more elements with this style this week, so if you like these stay tuned...

Summer Fuzz mini kit - part two

As promised, here's the second part of our first mini kit, Summer Fuzz.

I've created some really cute cupcakes, a teapot and a cloud for you, all in puffy felt.
Plus there's six new papers to coordinate with those in the first part of the kit.

All the papers are 3600 x 3600 sized, and all files were created at 300ppi.
There's two copies of each element, one with a shadow and one without.

Summer Fuzz mini kit - part one

We were really inspired to create by the deviantArt ScrapbookHub June Challenge, and have been having a fantastic time playing with my new PSE8 & actions from Atomic Cupcake.

Here's the colours we had to play with.  Bright, huh?

We'll be putting up the second part on Friday, so make sure you call in then to pick up the rest of our Summer Fuzz mini kit.

In the first part, there's puffy felt flowers & leaves, glossy brads and papers.

All images were created at 300ppi, and the file contains 20 transparent pngs (with and without shadows) and five papers (3600 x 3600).

It's a bit of a biggie, this file, and that's why we split it like this.
