SAS Blog Train Full of Freebies and a HUGE Retiring Sale

I have placed many of my older kits in the retiring category in my Scrapbird store. They are all marked down to $1.00 and are only available for a few more weeks, before they are gone for good. And, almost all of them include a BONUS Quick Page. Check out these mark-downs for some fantastic deals:




And our special treat for you... several of the SAS Designers got together and created a Friendship Around the World blog train for you, in honor of National Scrapbooking day. This download will be available for one week.



Here is my contribution to the SAS Friends Around the World Blog Hop. Click on the preview for the download link. Of course, the country I chose to do is Italy. In fact, I used the same swatch as my Ciao Italia kit so if you want even more, make sure to check it out. Click on the preview to download and make sure to follow the blog train (below) to snag more Friends Around the World kits. Keep in mind that many of our design team lives in different time zones, so if you come across a blog that doesn't have their part posted yet, just make a note of it and come back a little later.

Here are the links to the rest of this blog train. Enjoy the goodies and keep scrapping those memories!

Challenges, Sales, and This Week's Freebie!

Only a couple of weeks left to take the October challenges and get some free goodies! At Stone Accents Studio, don't miss the Clutter It Challenge. Every layout you complete earns you points, which can be used for products in the store. Here is the basic page for this month's Clutter It. The challenge is to download this page and ALTER it to make it your own - recolor, add stuff, rotate - whatever you'd like to do, but somehow change it and post it to the gallery to earn your points. Make sure you go back to the forum and provide the link to the gallery in order to receive your points! You can read more about it by clicking the link above.




At Scrapbird, I host the Quote Challenge. This month we're using autumn quotes for inspiration. Your posting bonus for this challenge is this Quick Page:


This week's freebie is a Quick Page that coordinates with Happy Camper. If you missed the free-with-purchase deal, it is now available at Stone Accents Studio and Scrapbird, on sale in both stores for a limited time.
Click on the preview to download and have fun! Please do not hotlink or share the download link.



This is a layout I made using the Quick Page. I recently had some girl time with my sister and one of my best friends at gorgeous Yosemite National Park.
