I'm keeping this post up on top until Christmas time!

My part of Whimsical Wonderland

Cuz really, I don't want to erase what I've written to put the new links up--I just can't do it. So I'm going to copy it down here. If you've already read it, you don't have to read it again. But this is so I don't hurt too bad deleting it in that top post! =P

This is my first freebie EVER. And it's going out now!!! I'm so excited and nervous!!! I've spent FOREVER packaging and organizing and finishing up. What a process! My respect grows more every day for people who do this all the time! Which will hopefully be me very soon. I have a FABULOUS freebie in the works--something I've never seen done anywhere digitally, so I'm pretty excited. Stay tuned.

Here are the links to my part of Whimsical Wonderland!
Papers
Elements
Alpha

Goodness!!!

Can I just tell you this is a hard game to play? First, stressing over every little detail of every little piece of every little element. Then, making sure everything is all put together right. Then, making sure the links work. THEN worrying about scrapping wolves who aren't happy no matter what (even though this kit is free and the links are staying up forever)! Thanks to everyone who is supportive of this endeavor!

If I may give my feelings on comments:
I've been there people. Downloading 60+ folders can be time consuming enough without leaving a comment on every single one! =) I'm not going to beg you to "leave me some love," and guilt you into leaving me a "Thanks." Would I absolutely ADORE 3 million thanks on my blog or 4Shared account? OF COURSE!!! So if you want to say thanks, go for it. I will love you forever. Especially if you live far away from me, cuz that's just cool that you even cared enough to stop by.

But I know that when I leave comments, it's because I absolutely LOVE the download, and I have something particular that I love about it. SO even better comments are ones that tell me WHY you love my contribution. I'll take the fact that you even downloaded it and added it to your rapidly filling hard drive as a sign that it was okay. I'll take comments that actually tell me what you liked as gems to treasure! =D

And the best of all, is when you tell me what you WOULD have liked better. I'm not talking about those (you know, the ones who aren't even reading my post...) who offer hurtful comments without offering solutions. I can take, "Hey, this part was blurry and that bugs me, could you clean it up?" no problem! It makes me better at making freebies, and gives you better freebies. Everyone wins. "Hey, your designs stink worse than my brother's year-old gym socks" is going to have the opposite effect. Who wants to put themselves out again after something like that?

So all I ask is this--if you don't like my stuff after you unzip it, throw it away. Then move on to someone whose stuff you like and use theirs. No problem. If you REALLY like something, go ahead and give me a holler. If you have a question for me, shoot me an e-mail at ARscrappingaddiction at gmail. (If you like stuff I did and would like to see different colors, sizes, etc. I'll see if I can work it in--if you're nice ;)

Okay. I'll put the soapbox away. Come to think of it, after spending so much time on the Whimsical Wonderland kit, I'd do better using it to clean my house! I'll get on that.

My First Scrapping Post!

Well *hello* everyone!!! Welcome to my scrapping blog! This is where I plan on posting some freebies and asking for constructive criticism on my layouts and designing play. Most of you are probably here wondering about the digi-scrap freebie of awesomeness that you've heard about over at Ellie's Sugar Snap Scraps. I can't even tell you how much fun I am having over there! We're pretty much going to have the biggest, most fantastical, gorgeous kit you've ever seen in your life. SO stay tuned!

Now I warn you, I am very NEW. I love Photoshop and have used it for a long long time, but I have only started actually digiscrapping and designing very recently...like, practically yesterday. Although I've been collecting freebies for quite a while now! You could pretty much say I'm ADDICTED, (thus my blog title). I am a very busy SAHM to a 4-month-old darling boy that you will be seeing a lot of I am sure. He also means I won't have oodles of time to devote to my computer. So I unfortunately won't be posting stuff every day... but that will just up the suspense, right? Right.

Anywho, welcome to my blog, be excited for our kit, and I will see you all shortly!

OOOH...and what do you think of my Alpha? It's just a tantalizing look into our kit of awesomeness!!! So come back to pick it up, eh?
