Winter Melody & a Note..

Well its been a while since I blogged.. 6 months [I just checked back].. OMG!!!!

It hasnt been a great year.. I got an injury end of my last summer

and its been plaguing me ever since.. between it and the meds..

I have gotten way out of routine..

I have had quite a few packs in the shop this year.. but this is my first kit since

Dragon Lore.. wow where has the year gone..

Here in a link to my shop at Deviant Scrap

I wont be around for 3 weeks after Christmas.. taking a break with family..

time to rejuvenate and come back refreshed and ready to go..

:)

So here is my new kit.. I went for a winter one although its summer here..

I Love winter and I would trade summer anyday..

I based it on a artsy type of journalling kit.. with some realistic elements and some brushed ones too...

Winter Melody

The kit consists of :  

9 Papers 12x12 inch... An ABR file containing 34 brushes... 

& 108 Elements ...  Everything was created in 300DPI

Here are the previews and then my layout followed by the CT layouts..

thank you ladies.. :)

After the layouts I will put the detailed screens shots and Brush sizes

Thanks for reading and have a great weekend !!!
