Hello my Dear Friends,
It has been another week FULL of frustrations, deadlines, and LOTS of WORK!!! As some of you are aware I had another ice storm that disabled my satellite dish and I had to cancel last week's **Embellish It** chat. I'm terribly sorry I really missed getting together with you. However, I know you can expect to see me at the regularly scheduled time on Thursday, March 6th at 11 p.m. EST in the 3Scrapateers Chatroom.
I have been busy at school and in front of the other monitor with my PS application just whipping out new files. Why just today I released a new product for personal or commercial use that is holiday specific. I'm hoping to have my new kit, "Oh Blarney!" ready by this coming weekend, but the process is slow. I wanted some very special frames for the kit and after I finished them, I decided that they were just 'too cute' to be used ONLY by myself. So, I took time away from my St. Patty's kit to perfect and compile a set of 5 St. Patrick's style frames for the store. You may purchase them HERE!!

Also, there's other news I want to tell you all about -- the March 5 "Scrap-a-Deal". I cut it really close in getting my kit ready for this one. It will be available in my store on Wednesday, February 27th and if you purchase the 1st half of the kit for ONLY $2.00, then post a LO created with it, you will get the second half for FREE.
Now, I'm sure you all are wondering what the kit looks like. . . YOU'RE RIGHT. . . I'm going to show you. It's called "Modern Woman" and boasts lace, pearls, diamonds, chrome, and faux fur papers (no animals were harmed in the paper creation process). Done in a color palette of RED, BLACK, GRAY, and WHITE!!! I hope you LOVE IT. I also created a ribbon and bow add-on and an xtra papers pack, too!!
Now, for the DRUMROLL. . . .I present. . . Osten's "Modern Woman"

Now, if you do purchase the 1/2 kit above, then post a LO over at 3Scrapateers I will GIVE YOU the SECOND 1/2 of the "Modern Woman" kit for FREE - just as a posting bonus!!!Here's the SECOND HALF -

Now, my last order of business, today, is the mention of a new process that I'm switching to. My purpose is two-fold:
1. To gain a better knowledge and personal level towards my fanbase and offer them 'goodie samples' and future design classes.
2. More personal reasons of issues related to time, efforts, and availability.
If you take a peek at the top right sidebar of my blog, you will notice that a Google Group sign up box has taken the place of the Valentine DooDad.
This is my new GROUP, I will continue to post information here at the blog, but for those of you who want to be on a more personal level with the DUDE Designer, then by all means - join my group. Trust me, you will be glad you did.
Well, that "Oh, Blarney!" kit is not creating itself...so back to work I go for a couple more hours, then it's OFF to SLUMBERLAND...then to school for another FULL DAY!! There's so much to be done when school is missed due to "Snow Days". SHEESH!!!
Until NEXT TIME. . .
DUDE UP
