Money Clip Art and FREEBIE!!

I am excited to unleash my new clip art set because it is something I feel MANY teachers can use in their classrooms when creating things for school! 

I am also sharing a fabulous freebie I made with my clip art! =) Not trying to toot my own horn or anything!

Isn't piggy cute!?

Ahhhh, I wish I had more time to make more clip art!! I'm addicted!!

Digital Art Giveaway Winner!

So I know this is totally a podunk way to do this, but some people commented but chose not to participate in the giveaway and I even had some people email me through etsy so I thought I would just put everyone in a word document and generate the winner that way. Those of you who emailed me, I included your name in chronological order of when I received it. 

Annnnd...the winner is....YEARN TO LEARN!

I know it's not conventional or pretty, but it did the job!

I have more clip art coming soon!! I actually had school today unlike most normal districts in this country who took it off as a national holiday! I have been super busy all night, but I hope to be adding new stuff to my shop very soon!! Thank you all for your kind words of support for this new hobby. It is greatly appreciated and makes me feel like I'm not totally stupid for thinking I could do it. =) You guys are the best bloggy friends a girl could ask for!

Frames and a Freebie!

I have been slaving away creating some new frames today! I have more coming, but I need to a take a break! Here are the newest additions to my Etsy shop!

It is also been requested that I create a Winter newsletter and since I promised a freebie by the end of the weekend, VIOLA! All clip art is from Microsoft Word so when you click the file, it will open up in Word. You must have Wish I Were Taller and Smiley Monster fonts from KevinandAmanda.com installed for this newsletter to look like this.

More digital art to come soon! And don't forget to enter my giveaway where you could win some of my new digital art work! Giveaway ends tonight! Click here to enter! I've decided I will giveaway two digital art packs of  your choice instead of the first two that were created. So, happy luck to you all! 

11 in a 11!

I'm finally joining the party! I have just been too addicted to my new Christmas present to do anything else! I do plan on posting a new freebie by the end of the weekend, but for now, here are my 11 things in 2011!

11. Favorite movie you watched
I read this book for our Book Club this summer and I just loved it. Of course, when the movie came out, I was all about it! It even makes my top 10 best movies!

10. Favorite TV series
I know this is going to sound really dumb, but the Walking Dead is definitely my new favorite TV show. Basically, this cop wakes up from a coma and the world has been taken over by zombies. I know it sounds super corny and stupid, but it is such a thrilling drama and of course there is some scandalous business that goes on too! My brother got me hooked on the first season and it was all over after that. I don't EVER miss an episode! The second half of season 2 resumes on February 12! So excited...

9. Favorite restaurantWe have this fabulous restaurant in Greenville called American Grocery. It's expensive and definitely considered fine dining, but they use mostly local meats and produce when they can and it's just DI-VINE! Chef Joe Clarke never disappoints me with his rabbit, hanger steak, duck, or fish and the walls of the place are adorned with artwork of the locals. Love it!

8. Favorite new thing you tried
Favorite new thing I've tried is definitely making digital art! This is a VERY recent development but so much fun! I literally was dreaming of the clip art I was going to make last night. I did not sleep very well due to my excitement this morning to get up and create! This was my newest set as of this morning...

I'd love for you to go check out my Etsy shop!
7. Favorite gift you received

This is a tie, my mom gave me the Bamboo Tablet which I lUVVV!

And then my boyfriend bought me this gorgeous ring from Silpada.com! Hopefully, I'll be getting a ring for the other finger in 2012! =)

6. Favorite thing you pinned
OMG. I have no idea. I have pinned about a bazillion things. Um. I guess I would say anything to do with fonts, clip art, or digital frames/backgrounds because I use them ALL the time. I am OBsessed. 
5. Favorite blog post
I would say my Multiplication Tricks Sheet since soooo many people have viewed it and are able to use it. =) Even though I initially had some mistakes in there, (which I fixed), ya'll knew what I meant! I like creating stuff people can really use!

4. Favorite accomplishment

My favorite accomplishment was becoming a Promethean Activ Inspire trainer in my district! It pays and it's so much fun to share new tricks with teachers! I felt so honored to be asked!

3. Favorite picture

Man...this is tough too! I am torn between these two!

The first one is from Bunco! We had an 80's hair band theme.

Buuut, I also got to go to Costa Rica this summer and go ziplining!

2. Favorite memory

My favorite memory was definitely while I was in Costa Rica. I got to go in a cage full of howler monkeys and hang out with them and even hold one! Meet Chiqui Chiqui!

Ain't he cute!?

1. Goal for 2012
I don't normally make goals because I never keep them. But, I would like to cook more at home instead of eating out so much! Maybe I should take a cooking class or two...
Well, that's my 11 in 11! 
Head on over to A Teeny Tiny Teacher's blog to participate!

Digital Papers and Frames

Hey friends! I am so excited to share that I have begun creating my own digital art!

I got one of these bad boys for Christmas...

It's a Bamboo Tablet by Wacom and IT IS AWE-some! It came with Adobe Photoshop Elements (which I created these digital pages in...)

and with Corel Painter Essentials (which is also totally awesome too!) I created these cute frames by hand drawing them, scanning them, and changing the colors digitally in Corel.

Anywho, if you are interested, please visit my Etsy shop and grab yourself a set! 

I would also love for you guys to spread the word so here is the deal...
