Arabesque and a Freebie

Wendy Tunison Designs has collaborated with Busy Crafting Mommy Designs to bring you a beautiful new set of kits called Arabesque.  Dancing, twirling, feeling the music in your soul.  There is nothing more beautiful than losing yourself in the music and letting it take you wherever it pleases.  Whether it's classical ballet, jazz, tap or any other form of dance, the beautifully blended colors of this kit will enable you to scrap it all.  The soft lace and tulle and sparkle of the sequins will have you surrounding your photos with the perfect finishing touches to really bring the feel of the dressing room to your layouts.  You'll hear the rustle of the tutus and feel the excitement of opening night as you play with the beautiful ellies.  With pieces so versatile you'll be able to use this kit over and over again for dance, heritage and all things feminine.  Don't worry, they didn't leave out the boys.  You'll find some fun masculine pieces as well so you can scrap their beautiful talent too!
Arabesque is 30% off through 2/27/13!

New Stuff from Wendy

Wendy Tunison Designs has unpacked the grab bag and packed up the Bits N' Pieces and that means I have a while lot of awesome to show you today!
Are you ever looking for just the perfect date tag to enhance your layouts?  These beautifully, versatile date pieces are just the right combination of neutral papers and sparkling borders.  These pieces are large enough for you to journal on as well so you'll easily be able to use them as focal pieces or shrink them down to add a great date tag to your photos!

Are you looking for a fast and easy way to add some fun texture and excitement to your layouts? I've got the solution! Simply use these overlays/masks with any kit for great results! You could easily add a style to them, change the blend mode to create an all new paper from one in your kit, use them as masks for your photos or papers. The possibilities are really endless!

We all love something that makes our lives a little easier, right?  Wendy struggled with shadows for the longest time and finally gritted her teeth and spent a few days creating the perfect shadows for herself.  She had tried other shadow styles before but they just weren't realistic enough for her.  She wanted something that would give my layouts that paper made feel.  She also wanted them to go in different directions because that's what shadows do in real life!  They aren't limited to one angle, they play with the light around them.  So she created her styles to adjust to the light.  Now the shadows can go to the upper right, lower right, upper left and lower left.  Wendy uses them on all of her layouts and she uses a variety of angles on each page to make her clusters more realistic.  Wendy hopes you'll find these shadows helpful in giving your layouts that same realistic look.  These would also be wonderful for designers when creating the pieces for your kits!

Reminiscent of moonlit walks and days gone by.  Simply Teal is the perfect blend of years gone by and fun tomorrows.  Perfectly suited for masculine or feminine layouts, this kit's bold, rustic feel is nicely blended with soft, sparkly beauty.

Scrapbooking about ourselves can be hard.  But truly, how will our children and grandchildren know our voice if we don't leave a part of ourselves for them to hear?  Wendy's Evolution series of kits will be designed to help you create beautiful pages all about you.  Of course, they're versatile enough to scrap anything you please if you're not ready to take that step as well!  Evolution *Celebration* is a beautiful kit full of painted and stitched pieces and just the right art journaling touch to tingle your creative senses.  You could easily use it to celebrate the small things in your life or even those big moments that make you want to throw your head back with laughter and joy.  Celebrate you.  Celebrate those you love.  Leave a legacy behind you for generations to come about the joys and the sorrows.  Leave a whisper so they know who you really are deep in your soul.

Wendy's also released In The Know at Scraps N' Pieces!  The painter Vincent Van Gogh once wrote "For my part, I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream." For all the brilliance of the world, there is so much to learn and to be curious about. With an eclectic whimsy perfect for curious souls and wise old owls, you'll find just what you'll need for layouts about learning and exploration in this unique mini kit. From an apple to stars and ABCs to stitches, atomic papers and a ruled border, In The Know is perfect for decorating photos of discovery and for documenting adventures of the imagination.
And as if all of that wasn't enough, Wendy Tunison Designs has one more new release for you today!  She has been a busy girl!  LOL!  The Bits N' Pieces theme for this month at SNP was Celebrations and she thought it was the perfect theme to introduce to you her new collection:  Evolution.  Scrapbooking about ourselves can be hard.  But truly, how will our children and grandchildren know our voice if we don't leave a part of ourselves for them to hear?  Wendy's Evolution series of kits will be designed to help you create beautiful pages all about you.  Of course, they're versatile enough to scrap anything you please if you're not ready to take that step as well!  Evolution *Celebration* is a beautiful kit full of painted and stitched pieces and just the right art journaling touch to tingle your creative senses.  You could easily use it to celebrate the small things in your life or even those big moments that make you want to throw your head back with laughter and joy.  Celebrate you.  Celebrate those you love.  Leave a legacy behind you for generations to come about the joys and the sorrows.  Leave a whisper so they know who you really are deep in your soul.
