“Do you believe in destiny? That even the powers of time can be altered for a single purpose? That the luckiest man who walks on this earth is the one who finds… true love?”

This beautiful quote was taken from Irish author Bram Stoker’s Dracula 1897 gothic horror novel. It introduced Count Dracula, and established many conventions of subsequent vampire fantasy. The novel tells the story of Dracula’s attempt to move from Transylvania to England so that he may find new blood, spread the undead curse, and of the battle between Dracula and a small group of men and a woman led by Professor Abraham Van Helsing.

I created ‘Immortal Love’ with the Mini O color scheme for October. If you love vampire love stories (like I do!), then you will definitely love this! The eerie and spooky feel, the stylish grungy damask patterns, and the transfers will add a touch of mystery to your layouts.

It’s almost Halloween - the perfect time to have a sale in my Etsy shop! I am offering a discount of 40% off all Halloween and autumn themed packs, and 20% off everything else (some exclusions apply).

Did you have a few things on your wish list?

Some last minute things for your Halloween party?

Hop on over to my Etsy shop - this sale runs thru October 31st!

Scrapgirls was the very first store that I ever visited frequently when I discovered digital scrapbooking back in 2011. It was the first store I ever bought a kit from (unfortunately I cannot remember what kit that was). They have been around for a long long time, only recently they celebrated their 13th anniversary.

I am extremely happy to say that today, I am opening a store at Scrapgirls! I’ve been working very hard to repackage, rezip and fill my store, focusing on seasonal products for Halloween and fall themed projects. I’ll be adding more of course, over the weeks and months to come.

Since Scrapgirls is having a sale of 35%, my entire shop is 35% off - including Value Packs - thru October 31st! And, if that wasn’t enough, there is a free with purchase too.

You may notice that a lot of my previews look different, that’s because all Scrapgirls designers use the same template. But it’s still the same product.

Now, I won’t keep you any longer, pay me a visit at Scrapgirls, you can find my shop here. See you there!

While I’m working on new Halloween themed things, I wanted to let you know that I’ve added updates to some Halloween packs in my Etsy shop:

I have updated this product and I have included a layered PSD and TIF file in the downloads so you can fully customize this! Available here.

I’ve also updated this pack with everything you need for an unforgettable costume contest party! You can now fully customize these, if you edit the layered PSD or TIF files for the judging form, the award certificate, the badge and the ticket. Available here.

And finally, this pack too has been updated. The layered PSD and TIF files for the menu, the place cards, the placemats and the straw flags will allow you to make these entirely your own! Grab it here.

By the way, these packs are also available in my Creative Market shop!

I have a lot more Halloween themed packs in my Etsy store, take a look here!

Have a great day,

Anja

There truly is something magical about the forest. The silence and the timelesness, the sound of crunching leaves beneath your feet, sunlight peaking through trees and branches, the smell of pine trees, berries, dried leaves and all things woodsy, especially in the fall season, are comforting to the soul and bring peace to your heart. Woodland Walks is a beautiful woodland themed collection, with a hint of autumn, and it is perfect for scrapping all your woodland pictures, for fall layouts and for documenting outdoor activities in general. You will love the warm and rich colour scheme, reminiscent of autumn leaves, berries, fruits and mushrooms, the textures and patterns, the vintage accents, the many woodsy embellishments, and the gorgeous papers.

‘Woodland Walks’ is now available at Oscraps and 25% off for a limited time. Click on the images below to go straight to my store at Oscraps:

Have a great day!

Unless you have been living on another planet, or unless you are not a scrapbooker or crafter at all, you must have heard it’s Digital Scrapbooking Weekend. The first Saturday of October is officially the day that all digital scrapbookers celebrate their hobby and passion of documenting their memories.

It’s one of the busiest weekends in the year and every designer and store have their own deals and steals… I’ll keep it simple and short for you:

Everything in my Etsy shop is 60% off

Everything in my Oscraps shop is 40% off
AND I have a few bundles and value packs for you that are 60% off:

All these deals are valid thru Monday 9th October, in my Etsy shop and in my Oscraps shop.

Have fun shopping (I’ll probably do some shopping myself if I have the time - we are celebrating my daughter’s 15th birthday this weekend).
