On the 4th Day of Christmas ... it is my SALE day!

If you've been waiting for that REALLY killer sale on something ... it's here.

Today only, 50% everything in my shop at NutHouse-Scraps.com. Commercial use, personal use, glitter, absolutely everything I designed, it's all on sale only for the 4th day of Christmas, Tuesday, Dec. 28th.

The sale begins at 00:01 Tuesday in the wee hours of the morning, and ends promptly at midnight Tuesday night. (The shop operates in Mountain Time, USA, for those of you who were wondering!)

Every day of the 12 Days of Christmas there's a new sale, and two new freebies! You'll love them! Go get them, too!

Every Day of the 12 Days of Christmas has a new freebie

Actually, each day has TWO new free downloads!

It begins today, Dec. 25th, and continues for each of the 12 Days of Christmas - there will be a wonderfully whimsical new 12 Days of Christmas stamp (pictured to the left) that you can download from the main shop page, one for each of the 12 Days of Christmas, plus ... in the shop, you will find a free new part of the amazing 12 Days of Christmas Collab, pictured below.

The 12 Days of Christmas FREEBIES for 2010

We're almost there - the 12 Days of Christmas starts Dec 25th, and at NutHouse-Scraps, we're celebrating again this year with free digital scrapbooking gifts for everyone. But this year, we're giving away TWO different special Christmas-themed gifts each day.

1. There's a beautiful 12 Days of Christmas Kit collaboration from all the designers at NutHouse-Scraps. It includes 114 elements and 28 papers in a gorgeous holiday palette of Warm Wine, Holly Berry Red, Mistletoe Green, Granny Smith Green, Midnight Blue, Winter Storm Blue, Touch of Nutmeg, and Winter White.

Every day, there'll be one zip file of one 12th of the collaboration which is free that day. Just check the shop for it.

2. There will also be a free Christmas Stamp for each day, based on the amazingly whimsical 12 Days of Christmas characters by Americo and decked out to coordinate with our 12 Days Kit. You can see from the preview below that the 12 Days stamps have a wonderful sense of humor to them. Check out those 3 French hens, the leapin' lords, and the "calling bird" is one of my personal favorites!

Every day, right on the front page of the shop at NutHouse-Scraps, there will be a download button for the stamp that displays to everyone once they are logged in.

So, here's a sneak peek at what we're giving away for the 12 Days of Freebies Christmas!

And the stamps . . .

It all starts on Dec 25th, and continues for 12 days; with new freebies each day, plus an all-new 1-day blow-out sale daily, too!

Yes, I know, we're NUTS! Nuts about digi-scrapping, that is.

Christmas Prints Pack for Commercial Use

They're brand new in the shop; so new the pixels are still wet!

6 delightful greyscale overlays for your Christmas projects. This is a mixed variety of greyscale images. Use them as overlays, as masks - use them under a color blend mode. Use them for papers, use them on borders, mats, and other elements.

I loved making the Christmas prints up and wanted to share them with others who might need a real fast paper starter for that new kit.

You'll find more details in the extended preview slideshow in the shop for a peek at the whole page design for each one.

And don't forget to take advantage of my DESIGNER SPOTLIGHT Offer - PM or email me when you use one of my prints in your products for sale. Then I'll feature it on my blog and add it to the most recent previews right in the shop for this set.
