BUSY DUDE

Howdy All --

I know, I KNOW!!! It's been awhile. Yes, and for a FEW GREAT reasons. One, not so GREAT, I've had to take a summer job, however, to have the job available to me, I had to start NOW. So, I've been working two jobs. Let's NOT talk about GASOLINE!!! ROFLMBO

Another reason is because I've just released my newest kit, and it's a MEGA KIT!!

For ONE WEEK ONLY (I just might extend that a bit), you can purchase the WHOLE COLLECTION at a SPECIAL 35% off price!!!

Here are the STARS of the show, right? Well, I thought I'd INTRODUCE you all to them. RIGHT NOW!!!

I'll begin with 'HENRI', the BOLD (Star Wannabe) and JUST a HINT of Individuality.

'KATHERYN'





'CATHERINE'





'MARIA'





'JAYNE'





'ANNE'[/b][/center]





and 'ELIZABETH'

Each mini kit will be SOLD INDIVIDUALLY or as a COMPLETE COLLECTION. I really DO HOPE YOU LOVE them as much as I do.

Until NEXT TIME --

Grand Opening SALE-a-bration - DUDE's NEW STORE!!

Howdy All,

Well, as you know - I've been getting ready to "OFFICIALLY" OPEN my new store!! I wanted to let you know that on Saturday, March 22nd - I will be having a 25% off SALE. WOO HOO!!!

I will also be in my new Chatroom from NOON EST till the DUDE gets too tired, handing out some GOODIES that coordinate with my NEWEST RELEASE, "Frivolous Fancies" Scrapkit.

"Frivolous Fancies" will be released "ON SALE" so the coupon excludes the new release. However, I do have an Xtra Plain Textured Paper Pack Add-on, a Ribbons & Bows Add-on, and a Blossoms & Borders Add-on that you can get with your 25% off coupon.

Where can you get this coupon?? Well, there are several places, in some of the Yahoo Groups that I advertise in, over at my PERSONAL PRIVATE Google Group, registered DUDEs Forum members, registered DUDEs Shop customers, or even at the CHAT!!!

Your 25% off coupon will be good for ONE WEEK ONLY!! and is good on everything in my SHOP, except for the new release of "Frivolous Fancies" which will be ON SALE for $3.00.

Now, I'm sure you want to see some PREVIEWS of this GRAND NEW KIT and I also have PREVIEWS of the GOODIES I will be giving away at the Saturday Chat!!! Who knows the Goodies might even show up for any registered members of the forum, too!!!

So, HOP, SKIP, JUMP, or FLY on over to my new site and GET REGISTERED so YOU won't be left out!!!

I Guess NOW is the TIME. . .

Well I know that some of you out there have been wondering, "What on EARTH is the DUDE up to?" Well, I guess now is as good a time to let you in on it, YOUR DUDE has a NEW HOME!!! That's right, I resigned from 3S and am now an INDEPENDENT DESIGNER!!! WOO HOOOEEEYYY!!

Would you like to see a photo of my new place? OK!! HERE -

Isn't she PRETTY??? I've been busy the past week getting it all set up and functional. There are still a few issues that are outstanding. . .

1. I don't have all my products in the store YET!
2. You have to register TWO TIMES, once at the store and then again in the forum.
3. The forum is fairly naked, it needs some activity.
4. The Gallery is EMPTY, it needs filling up with some pretties!!!

Other than that, I think I'm good to go. If you have time, stop by, take a look around. I'd be happy if you registered and posted an introduction.

Well, I'm off to upload more products to the store. The links to the right will lead you in the right direction or if you want to ENTER from the MAIN SPLASH PAGE, click HERE!!

Until later. . .
