Mango Tango, and 11 new designers!

Hi everyone!

It's time for another Sunshine Girls (and Guy, can't forget my hubby!) freebie collab! Squeeeee!!! This time around it's called Mango Tango, and I'll show you my preview and give you my link in a minute.
Before that let me just spill what I've been dying to say: we ended up adding not one, not 5, not even 10 but 11 (eleven!) great new designers to Sunshine Studio! Can I get a giant mega squee???
Who are they, you ask? Well, their shops will be going live on Friday, but they're contributing to Mango Tango as well, so you'll get a sneak peek sooner! Just drop by the Sunshine Studio blog to be directed to their individual blogs and download their shares of Mango Tango! And don't forget to show off the gorgeous LOs you create with it at our gallery!

Ok, here's my share at last:

Mango Tango 2

Enjoy and, once again, don't forget to drop by the Sunshine blog for the rest of your links!

I Opened My Grab Bag!

Er... that was actually a week ago, I probably should have said something sooner, eh? Go me! (Insert eye rolling smilie here.) Well, in my defense, I did warn you I was an idiot a few posts back, lol.

Anyway, this is what was included in my grab bag, now available separately (Pics are clickable):

In warm autumn colours, Autumn Sunset is an understated mini kit perfect for making your photos the true focus of your layouts. Autumn Sunset includes:
6 Individually Textured Papers.
1 Clothespin.
1 Tag Frame.
1 Journal Piece.
1 Autumn Leaf.
2 Polaroid Frames.
1 Ribbon Flower.
2 Ribbon Stitching.
1 Rub On.
2 Swirl Stitches.
1 Full Alpha with Uppercase, Lowercase, Numbers, Symbols, Special and International Characters, and full sheets as well as individual characters for your commodity. A total of 164 characters.

Perfectly matching Discovery: the Brush Alpha and Discovery: the Alpha, Discovery sends us back to another time, of faded, inkstained maps and ancient photographs. Discovery Includes:
6 Individually Textured Paper Maps (12x12" @ 300dpi).
1 Worn Bound Book.
2 Tied Buttons.
1 Old Envelope.
2 Frames.
1 Worn Frame.
1 Journal Piece.
1 Rope.
1 Stitches.
2 Round Stitches.

With an old yet contemporary feel, the Discovery Alpha proves to be very versatile while coordinating perfectly with the Discovery mini kit.

With rather large letters, this brush alpha is very flexible and allows for a multitude of uses. Individual PNGs included for non-Photoshop users. Upper and lowercase only.

A Spring-feel brown alpha that's floral without being necessarily girly! Uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols and special characters.

14 individually textured papers in all 7 colours of the rainbow, 7 bright and 7 more muted ones, peeled back to reveal the cardboard underneath. Is beauty really only skin deep?

A Scrabble-like bead alpha perfect for fun LOs! Uppercase, numbers, a blank and some symbols, as well as a full sheet.

12 individually textured multicolored papers decorated with gradients and bright splashes of color. Bold, colorful and daring, these papers will make your LO come to life!

12 curls that match the Unfettered paper pack. Bold, colourful and daring, these curls will make your LO come to life!


This bonus was also included in the grab bag, but it's now no longer available:

Whew! As Bugs Bunny would say, & that's all, folks!

My Grab Bag extended for TODAY ONLY!

Yup, it was only going to run through the 3rd, until I remembered that the 4th was "somewhat important" to so many of you. So, if you haven't snagged it yet, you can do it today only, here!

I'm an idiot!

I'm an idiot!

Yup, I am! What would you guys say if I told you that I have been so out of it that I completely forgot to blog that the Sunshine Girls (and Guy, let's not forget my lovely hubby who has been posting here so that my blog won't just fade into oblivion!) finally managed to open shop - Sunshine Studio Scraps? You'd say "You idiot!" in your best Dr. House voice, wouldn't you? Yup, I would too. I have, actually, lol! I know I got Vasco to post that we were opening but, after that, I didn't say a word! What did I tell you? I'm an idiot! ;)

So, to make it up to you guys, I bring you both a freebie and a coupon. But, first, let me show you my new fan blinkie, and also what has been keeping me busy:

My wonderful friend and head CT Jeannette, aka Nett, aka Lady_Grundlefunk, is a hidden blinkie making marvel! Look what she made for me, isn't it gorgeous? I'm in love!

As far as new products are concerned, let's start with my Cinnamon Breeze kit:

Also available in separate Elements and Papers packs.



The Alpha in Cinnamon Breeze is a multicoloured one, and I liked the end result so much I ended up making an 8 Alpha Pack, each in their own colour. Did I mention I'm an alphaholic?

Next are boxes, boxes and more boxes. But, because boxes don't like to be alone, they come with tears, curls, rubber bands and even custom drop shadows in separate pngs. Oh, and some clusters too. Build-A-Box 1:

And Build-A-Box 2:

Or you can get Build-A-Box 1 & 2 together and save yourself $1:

"Enough with the product previews already, where is my coupon?" I hear you saying.

Go to my Sunshine Studio Scraps store at any time between now and the end of the month and enter the code YouIdiot! to get 25% off everything, including CU.

And you have the added benefit of insulting me for not having told you about Sunshine Studio Scraps! You can use it up to twice per person so, in case you use it and forget to get something, you can still grab it at a discount! Enjoy your freebie, and I'll try and pay more attention to my poor neglected blog, promise

"And the freebie?" Here it is, it's a mini kit that coordinates with my collab with the lovely Studio Flergs, What Dreams May Come. You can click on the image or on the download link to get it.
