I've Moved!

Well, at least I've moved digitally. Remember how I said getting my old October Dawn Designs site back up and running was a goal? Well, it's DONE!!! Come check out my newly redesigned site. It even has a store where you can snag all of my goodies AND get immediate access to your downloads after completing your purchase. Too cool, right?

Later on today you'll even find some new releases. AND, I've started blogging again. It's a slow process since I have to juggle it with the other things going on right now, but it's coming along.

You can find all of the awesomeness HERE!

New from Melidy Designs - Mania!

If you missed the kit challenge over at Mousescrappers in June Melissa is adding Mania! to the shop this week. It's pretty big for a minikit with 6 solids, 6 patterned papers and 28 elements! For those of you that have been to Disney World It will be pretty obvious what this kit was inspired by but even if you aren't a Disney fan this kit would be great for childhood pictures rummaging through the toy box...

Quoted: Walt Disney - New from Melidy Designs!

Walter Elias Disney is a massive inspiration in many people's lives. Not solely because of his animation talents or his ability to create the 'Most Magical Place on Earth' but also because his outlook on life is so inspiring.

New in the shop this week are two sets of quote cards, featuring some of Walt's most famous quotes in a subway art style. These cards would make great additions to your Disney pages, or for your 'everyday' project life style pages:

Buy if you want both sets Melissa has bundled them together, and at a discount!

Almost There!

In case you haven't noticed I've been slowly adding new elements to the blog. I finished designing a BRAND NEW kit and got it to my team late Monday. I've set up the products that are going to be available with Paypal. Now I just need to get some ads made, blog posts written and it all up! Are you getting excited?

The goal is to open on Friday, June 20th. There will be a sale that weekend ONLY. I'll be putting the reworked versions of Wilderness Adventure, Mouse Colors and The Confection Connection up then, along with my new kit. As well, I'll add some previous products that first weekend, and will slowly get all of them back up. Be expecting reworked versions of a variety of other kits too!

Which ones do you miss the most? What products do you want to see come back first? Any products that you want to see reworked?
