Hi everyone!
This week I am re-releasing a huge set of printables that I created for Mother’s Day. Just in time so you can prepare your gifts or whatever you plan to give to your mother, grandmother, daughter or friend.
On Mother’s Day moms do not always want expensive presents. A very personal gift, made with love, will be so much more appreciated. The whole ‘Happy Mother’s Day Printables’ collection was designed around Mother’s Day, but many of the tags and the journal cards can be used for other occasions as well: to surprise your daughter on her birthday, to thank a friend or a relative, a neighbour… You will enjoy these printables even after Mother’s Day is long gone.
The Mother’s Day Printables collection includes a romantic vintage roses card with matching envelope, a set of coordinating tags, round or rectangle shape, and a pack of journal cards where you can add your personal messages… these will make for the perfect Mother’s Day gift. You can use the tags on homemade gifts, print out the journal cards on heavy cardstock and make a little booklet (keep the cards together with a metal ring)… and they all come in three different colour schemes: purple, red and yellow.
Happy Mother’s Day Printables Purple Bundle

Introducing my newest creative team member Scrap Queen
A few months ago a customer sent me a link to an amazing video tutorial for a hybrid project, where my Alice In Wonderland Papers were used in a gorgeous mini-album. Watch the video here. I got in touch with Scrap Queen and I asked her if she would be willing to do more hybrid projects for me, using my designs. She said yes and I was thrilled! I was really missing someone like her in my team, someone who uses my designs beyond digital scrapbooking.
Scrap Queen has her first hybrid project ready for me, accompanied by a step-by-step tutorial for a ‘loaded envelope’ and she uses the red Happy Mother’s Day printables. It’s truly amazing, I’m not a paper crafter, and I could never imagine making something as awesome as this. I am going to stop talking now and let you watch the video for yourself - enjoy!
Here are some photos she made:
I have a second new hybrid girl in my team, who will use my designs to create mostly project life hybrid layouts. I’ll introduce her later, when she finishes her first project!
And as a reminder, don’t forget that you have only two days left to purchase The Sweetest Spring Bundle - 55 spring themed packs with a discount of 85% - in my Etsy shop.
That’s it for me this week, have a great day!
Anja
Because you can never have enough paint in your kits or projects… 😉
I’ve added a pack with 20 paint brushes to my commercial use stores. They were handmade by me, using different paper textures and paints, then scanned, edited, cleaned up and turned into brushes. You will receive 20 PNG files and 2 ABR files. The brushes are quite large, up to 2487 px in height!
Use these in your personal layouts and projects, or use them for the creation of artsy embellishments for your kits.
Available here: Etsy | Sugarhillco | Creative Market
For the next two weeks I am featured designer at Sweet Shoppe, how amazing is that! Not only will you get to know me a little better, but for the next two weeks you will receive a free kit that I created with Studio Basic and Krystal Hartley, with every purchase of $10.
Let me show you what we made:
Jeans go back a long way. Did you know that the original ‘blue jeans’ was invented by Jacob W. Davis and Levi Strauss & Co. in 1871? Originally designed for cowboys and miners, jeans became popular in the 1950s, they were a common fashion item in the 1960s and they continued to be popular in the 1970s and 1980s. Today, jeans remain a popular fashion item, and they come in many styles and colors. If you have nothing else to wear, jeans are always a good idea. They are both comfortable ànd sexy.
‘Denim And Lace’ is made of richly textured patterns and solids (15 patterns, 10 solids), 1 lace alpha and a great mix of elements, in blue and red tones, and a touch of pink and green. Cool and boyish, or refined and feminine, this kit is sure to offer you everything you need.
You will receive 93 elements, including: 1 accordion flower, 1 embroidered flower, 7 flowers, 1 dried flower, 5 leaves, 1 banner, 1 book, 1 lace border, 2 lace ribbons, 1 measure tape, 1 needle, 1 lace yoyo flower, 4 buttons, 2 pieces of cardboard, 2 pieces of fabric, 1 denim pocket, 1 piece of vintage ephemera, 1 roses border, 1 piece of yarn, 1 messy thread, 1 stitching, 2 floral frames, 1 vintage stamp frame, 2 paper frames, 1 ornamental frame, 7 pieces of graffiti, 1 library card, 4 puzzle pieces, 3 ribbons, 1 twine, 1 bow, 1 tag, 3 pieces of paper, 1 flower bead, 1 berry, 1 brad, 1 crochet doiley, 2 paint splats, 2 paint splatters, 3 large words, 1 denim word stamp, 2 wordstrips, 1 butterfly, 8 labels, 2 vintage stamps, 1 star, 1 paper tag.
And all of this is free for you over the next two weeks, with every purchase of $10 in the Sweet Shoppe shop. After that, Denim And Lace will be for sale in the Triple Dip section of the store.
Let me show you what my creative team and the Sugarbabes made; first up are the layouts from my creative team.

Hi there! Spring is definitely here, where I live. I see the trees blossoming, I see spring flowers growing in our garden and temperatures are rising. Time for a spring themed kit, don’t you think so?
‘Spring Fever’ was actually a set of 6 packs that I designed somewhere around this time last year. But it was never a complete kit. I decided to add a whole new set of elements and journal cards, and while I was at it, I also reworked most of the patterns LOL. So you could say, that today, Spring Fever is as good as new and is now a wonderful mix of bright and happy spring patterns, stylized vintage floral patterns, mixed media backgrounds, flower blends, field flowers, vintage ephemera, lots of painty stuff, decorative word art and a lovely pack of washi tape. Everything you need to create beautiful spring layouts.
Let’s take a closer look.
Spring Fever Bundle
Included in the bundle are the kit, the paint splatters, the journal cards and the washi tape. Your best deal if you want to grab all 4 packs of the Spring Fever collection.
Available only at Sweet Shoppe, grab the bundle here.
Spring Fever Kit
16 patterns, 10 solids, 2 alphas and 87 elements - that is what you will receive when you purchase the kit.

As always, patterns, solids, elements and alphas are available as separate packs in my Etsy store.
Spring Fever Alpha

Available only in my Etsy shop, grab the alpha here.

Spring Fever Washi Tape
15 PNG files of patterned and solid pieces of digital - but very realistic looking - washi tape in different sizes. Use them to ‘attach’ photos, notes or other (paper) things to your layouts, or use them just for decoration.

I am also re-releasing the mini kit ‘April Fool’ at Sweet Shoppe. Included in this mini are 3 solid papers, 3 patterned papers and 15 elements: 1 vintage postcard, 1 brad, 1 button, 1 felt flower, 1 vintage flower, 1 fish, 1 vintage fish, 1 stitched fishes overlay 12×12 in, 2 transfers, 1 paint splatter, 1 paint splat and 3 pieces of word art.
In Italy, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, and French-speaking areas of Switzerland and Canada, 1 April tradition is often known as April fish (poissons d’avril in French, aprilvis in Dutch or pesce d’aprile in Italian). This includes attempting to attach a paper fish to the victim’s back without being noticed. Hence the reference to a fish in the papers and elements!
