Easy As Pie Daily Graphics Still Going Strong

Good morning ... to everyone!

Easy As Pie Daily Graphics is still going strong! If you haven't visited in a while, run on over and check out my free offerings.

The picture above is featured on my website today. You can pick up 2 different base cards, if you're in a hurry to "quick scrap", or download the items separately and print them out and layer them into a card or project. So fun ... easy ... and fast!

There is now a guest book on my today menu page, and if you sign THAT guest book, you will be rightfully thanked for your investment in time signing with a url to 15 additional graphics on a separate page. You can only get there ... with a small amount of effort on your own. Take a minute and go sign the guest book ... and pick up your additional free graphics. And thank you!!!

This next picture above, is just some of the items I offered this week. Most are 50% reduced in size. And remember, this picture is still smaller than what actually posts on my website.

Using the free graphics allows you to throw together a very quick card.

Something new over at Easy As Pie Daily Graphics, is that I am now posting a week ahead of schedule. You will find everything up through 1/13/12.

During the week, when I get up, I just start creating. I now keep a diary of my daily creations for my own reference. When Saturday rolls around, I open each day and choose which graphics I'd like to offer. There is usually at least 2 graphics, but more often than not, there are three graphics. Occasionally there are more, like on 1/12/12, I had 5 flowers and one deco box -- that's six items.

I put 15 graphics in set 1 that weren't used at all ... and offer that now as my thank you for signing the guest book. By the way, these will change from time to time, and other sets will be offered. The first set will leave, the new one will arrive. So grab these while you can get them.

I start publishing the new week coming up on Saturday mornings. I finish up on Sunday morning. It is almost 8 am, and everything is published, plus this new post for HomeSpun Graphics Blogspot. That's pretty good.

That is a schedule I can live with.

I still need to add additional sculpey items to my website, and do a post for Cjs Clay and Art Scraps Blogspot. I'll work on that next.

I currently have Oct 2011 (the first 1/2 of the month up), all of November, all of December, and all of January to date. After about six months, I will start taking down October.

It's been a wonderful 2011, and 2012 will be even greater!

This year, starting Tuesday, I will allowed to "work from home" for one day a week. I've done it once before, and I am very excited by this new prospect. It will save wear and tear on my car (and me), and money on gas! And working from home will cut down on interruptions at work.

I will miss working with my co-workers, but heck! It's only one day. And it will be so much nicer when we're all in the office together.

Our days will rotate, but we get to pick and choose, although there always needs to be enough people in the office to cover our customer service lines.

Hey! Quick joke: "Why did the clown go to the doctor?"

"He was feeling "a little funny"!

I think that's cute.

Thank you for that one, Woman's World!

If you scrapbook and like these items, please feel free to comment here ... and get rewarded over at my website! And check out my other blog. Thank you.

Have a terrific week!

Enjoy!

FREE PDF and PNG Downloadable Kit for Mon. 1/17/11

Good morning Monday. My logo girl is kind of droopy-eyed today. It's a blue Monday for her, but not for me.

It is Martin Luther King Day today ... and I am on holiday! Yeah! I love holidays.

This is the free kit featured for today. It's called Flower Art Fun! It's not a big kit, but there will be additional items to go with in the next several days, and check out some of the older kits. Many items will do well together.

This just features a few more items in the kit. The circle frame comes without color, and also in lime green. There are 3 background colors: bright yellow, olive green, and lime green.

This flower at the top of this picture will be featured in Wednesday, 11/20's kit. If you like this flower, be sure to check out the pdf download on today: Mon. 1/17/11 for additional flowers.

You download the kit, print them out, and then cut them and put them together to decorate your cards or scrapping projects with.

If you don't see a new blog post for a few days, just head on over to my website to see what's up. There are days when I don't post, but the next day ... you'll find 2 posts. Every day gets covered.

Have a great day; and I hope it's not a blue Monday for you!

Download These Four Free PNG KITS

Good morning!

Doing my posting for the last several days ... today!

Here are the current free kits currently up on my website.

This was Sunday's free png kit. See my new little logo to the bottom right. She does change expressions from day to day.

If you like borders, then this little kit will give you some extras to play with.

This is a card I made. There are 2 flaps to open on the front; the left first, and then the right to reveal the inside of the card. This was fun to make. I made a physical one. Turned out very cute!

This kit has the center frame that was used on the inside of the card featured above. It goes together with that kit.

It has been a busy weekend.

Run on over to my website, and pick up the kits. They will be up all month!

Deco Frames For Your Scrapbooking Projects Along with some small Elements

Good morning!

The first kit featured above is today's kit on my website: Decos 2. The original frame in yesterday's kit is just an outline, and it's up to you to decorate as you see fit!

I decorated this frame three different ways, and you are also free to use those, if you wish.

This kit was yesterday's kit: Decos 1, featured 1/5. Left mainly as shapes, so you can color them in as you like, but featuring 2 colored graphics leading into what is offered on 1/6, which is the first kit featured on my blog today.

I hope you'll have fun decorating with these 2 kits.

I published both days this morning. I was making them yesterday, and just ran out of time, so I headed off to work, knowing I would get them up this morning.

It takes longer to convert each one into a png as well as make the psp item.

My kits are mainly "mini" kits. But, you will find many of the items useful in your scrapbooking projects. They will add color and pizazz, hopefully.

Have a great Thursday. Run pick up the kits.

Enjoy!

Sunday's free png download kits--Mushroom Magic

Good Sunday morning!

Mushroom magic is up on my website. You can head over and pick it up anytime before December 1st, at which time, all of November's free png kit downloads are gone.

These are rather small graphics. I thought it might make a good recipe card or even the front to a card for Thanksgiving.

Pick it up for your scrapping projects. Along with the other 20 days that are up right now. Once you have them on your own computer, it won't matter if they come down off my website!

Have a great day today! Enjoy!

Sat. 4/24/10: Free Graphics

Good morning!

Just a little "simple something" this morning.

I has been one heck of a week.

On Wednesday, I ran out of time to get my website up, so ran off to work without doing it.

I had a message to call my sister in St. Louis and finally remembered my cell phone. So I called.

She had tragic news. My other sister lives in GA, and she has removed her family from ours ... some 20 years ago. We have not spoken since then.

It seems her daughter, my niece, committed suicide on the 16th. She had just been married a year. She's suffered 3 miscarriages, and had a severe condition that she was being treated for that caused her great pain. My sympathies are with my estranged family and my niece's husband, and I hope to send a card. It is tragic news.

My 10th wedding anniversary came around on the 20th.

And yesterday, I spent most of my day off doing sculpey claying. Kneading the clay has a mind-calming influence, plus I get finished creations. While we were expecting rain, it didn't come in till later that evening, so it was a beautiful day ... and I had my windows open and my patio door. It has been a lovely spring so far.

My website is all ready to go for today with quite a bit on it ... if I could get it published. Right now, it won't go up. Oh well. I'll try again later.

Have a great weekend. I hope your week has been a good one.

4/17/10: Beautiful card - Free Graphics

Good morning! It's Saturday!!!

I love weekends. As I said in an earlier post, I only worked 4 hours yesterday. I came home just bursting to create something new. The last few days that were all posted today, are my finished creations that I had fun putting together.

I really like this first one, and it is actually my favorite out of all of them. I just love the flower in this creation, and designated it to my flower sig tag, which you see at the bottom. At least until I find another "favorite". (I'm thinking of trying to design this flower in sculpey clay.)

This second creation is an offshoot of the first one. I just liked the look of it.

I hope you have an amazing weekend!

4/16/10 Two more card fronts - Free Graphics

Good morning,

Here's the card I did for yesterday's post with a white center, and the second with a white background.

Changing the background changes the look of the card front. I like the one I posted yesterday the best, but wanted to post these two also.

Have a great weekend.

Monday morning graphics-Silabella Fairie

Good morning!

The weekend is over, and it's time to get back to the weekly "grind". Ah yes! Monday morning.

Away from the drawing board, and back into a world of "numbers". I'm in accounting, you know.

But, before I go, I wanted to show you the side bar from my website today. It's on this little fairie I created yesterday.

Her name is Silabella (pronounced like "silly", but sila, and bella, well; that's easy).

It's a common thing for most of my characters to come from my kaleisdoscopes, which are those flowery-type things you can make in psp. Like clouds in the sky or grains in wood, I see pictures in my kaleis.

Being that Silabella is a fairie, she can be any kind of creature because fairies are fantasy creatures. Her larger version will probably be posted on my website tomorrow.

I had a fast weekend, as I'm sure you did. I did go to my daughter's house yesterday, for a "meeting" on our upcoming shower.

The meeting was short, so it gave me a chance to visit with my granddaughter a little. She got out her coloring pencils and two tablets of paper. We laid on the living room floor on our bellies and did scribble drawings. She is kind of into vampires right now, as two her scribbles were ladies ... with pointed teeth.

She found a purse in one of her scribbles, a heart, and one of my favorites, a cute little snake. I was honored ... as she let me take home all the scribbles. She has a very generous nature, although there is a sadness in her that haunts me. She is not as "cuddly" as she once was, but that might be because she's "growing up".

Her life has been a hard life, and she's only 9. She'll be 10 this year. I wish I could "whisk her away" to more carefree times. A time when things were safer, and a child could just go out and play. It was a time when "adhd" was never uttered, because it didn't exist then. Have you ever thought of ALL the LABELS we have for people today? I think it's a sign of the times, and not the people. It's stress.

It's been a long time since she came and just spent the night here. I miss her presence around my house.

My daughter is in her 8th month of pregnancy. She's doing well. When she carries her babies, they don't move like the three I carried. You'd have thought there was a circus going on in my belly when I was pregnant. But "Emma" is fairly quiet, as was my granddaughter. That doesn't appear to be a sign that she'll be a quiet child though, as my granddaughter was quite active.

It was beautiful weather this weekend, and especially yesterday. The sun was shining, and it warmed up quite nicely. We've had a brief cold trend, and some rain, so it was nice to see the warmer weather again. I like this time of year ... before it gets HOT!

I hope you have a great Monday morning. Make good use of it. As for me, I have a least an hour to get back to my drawing board -- so I'm off to it now.

Sunday's Free Graphics: 4/4/10

Good Sunday morning to you.

It's been awhile since I last posted. Nothing new in that, I'm afraid.

Life gets busy, and I have to occasionally focus on a few different things.

This is already 4/4/10. Time is just flying by.

Yesterday, my husband and I followed my daughter, her husband, and my granddaughter down to Newport, Ky., for a baby shower. It started at 11 a.m. at Brio's, and ended about 2 or 2:15 p.m.

She really hauled in the gifts. I thought they'd never end.

She has a shower at work, another shower in KY (I'm bowing out of that one), and then her stepmother and I are throwing her one on May 1st. So this new little granddaughter is going to have some mighty nice things with which to start her life! Oh my!

It was really breezy yesterday. Brio's was in a mall on the Ohio River, but it wasn't too chilly. We had a few light sprinkles before the party started.

The chicken salad I had was delish, but I have some food allergies, and had a reaction right after finishing it. Darn! And it was so good, too!

The cake was adorable. I'll post a picture of it tomorrow. I don't know where they ordered it, but it was so darn cute!

I am back to posting at my website, and there are items there today.

I am off now ... need to get to the grocery store.

Have a great Sunday!

Hope you all had a good Thursday.

Wednesday: 2/10/10: Wishing You Were Here

Good morning ... oh ... it is just now 12 noon. I hear the whistle blowing. So ... good afternoon!

For all those who are separated from their loved ones on Valentine's Day ... here's WISHING YOU WERE HERE!

Well, I took today off to maneuver around the possibility of MORE snow. So far, we don't have anything more.

I wish it would've just gone on and snowed like crazy. Let everything close, and send everyone home early. Oh well.

I am hoping that this is the last day I have to take annual leave for possible snow.

Our parking lot was not that great yesterday. The crew that is doing our snow cleaning is NOT as good as it was 2 years ago. I heard from a co-worker yesterday that it's because they are contracting it out now. We used to have an engineer in charge ... and he had a crew. They were on top of it all the time.

Since I've already fallen too many times ... and I never got my arm surgically fixed, and still have limitations with it, I have to be really careful. Also, I have osteoporosis in my spine ... and I just can't afford to be falling on slippery ground ... or anywhere else.

We have a good-bye party at work tomorrow for our district chief. He's moving to a new department, even though he hasn't been with us a year. We don't know who our next chief will be. I'm taking in hot dogs, coleslaw, and cookies. Need to get to the store to pick up those items today.

Friday, I am off, but not annual leave; thank heavens. I see my doctor in the morning, and there's tests to run. It won't be bad.

I'm longing for spring. I'm done with cold ... snow ... ice ... winds that cut like a knife ... and just ready for some green sproutings! And some springy new colors.

Have a really great day.

My daughter and her family are moving into a beautiful new home this Saturday. She is so excited!!!!

Have a wonderful day!

Sunday morning FREE GRAPHICS

Good Sunday morning,

I used this little guy I created yesterday, and featured him, again. I made a little stool for him to sit on, and came up with this creation.

I had a squiggly worm ... from my past, and then had to come up with a comment to post on it.

The guy likes the worms "coils" ... they are so CURLY.

Just a little fun for me today.

I went grocery shopping yesterday, and bought two items for my Wii. My granddaughter had been wanting JUST DANCE ... and I found it. I just love it!

I also bought FUN FIT, the workout program which comes with the camera. Very nice. I also like it. I did a mini workout yesterday, and spent a lot more time dancing with the JUST DANCE. What a blast!

I hope they continue to make more JUST DANCE-type Wii games.

I also cracked out my Wii Sims Kingdom. I got that at Big Lots for $10 last weekend when I was looking for JUST DANCE, which I couldn't find then. My granddaughter did not care for Sims Kingdom, but I like it a lot. I spent about 2 hours yesterday playing that.

I am still fairly new to the external-type game world: x-box (even though my husband has one and has bought games I can play). I have Wii Sports, and I love the bowling, the golfing, and the tennis.

My arm did very well yesterday, although during my workout, I babied my right arm. The video kept saying, "Watch that arm." I thought, "Gee. I'm trying to baby this arm so I can continue to workout." I hope that doesn't lower my score.

My score continues to improve in JUST DANCE. In Sims Kingdom, sometimes it takes me a long time to figure out what I'm doing ... just trying to get to that next gift! Sheesh!

Have a really great Sunday. I know I will.
