NEWS

Hi everyone!

Well, let's just say I am finally completely disappointed in Creative Fabrica. Last week I wrote about changes that weren't officially announced. I sent mail to them asking about it and yes, it's true. After May 31st, if you want to download anything from the site, you'll have to have subscription. Will it be just All Access or for both website and AI is still not clear. So that just confirmed my wish to move away from that site completely. But more about that in coming weeks.

Cats are doing fine. Lilly just "discovered" our sweet little neighbour and she's trying to get into her trampoline! It's funny to see Lilly trying to get over the fence and baby Mila smiling when she sees her. Zorro is not impressed with backyard or neighbours at all.

PAYHIP

These old journal pages got some likes last week.

In the next few weeks I might focus more on updating older products than creating new ones. I just want to make sure that all my products have same style of description where you can get all infos about product.

MY SCRAPBOOKING WORLD

Ilonka's "Born to be wild" kit is great inspiration for me right now. I'm trying to get some new products into my store, which you'll see at the bottom in Tell me more section.

Annanie has new collection called Gentlman's library. Now, I'm not huge fan of manly kits, but I became fan of Flip Flop Folios. It's not so much junk journaling, but paper engeneering. But I love it because it's so useful.

BENABLE

Benable started to be so glitchy. First I lost notifications, now I lost all links. So people can just look that my lists, but they can't buy it, so that I can earn small bit of it. I sent mail, but they say everything is fine. We'll see.

But now, I present you my friend Kim Rollandi and her store at Ko-fi.

TELL ME MORE

Now, about CF. They changed their AI called Flow, which I use most of time, without any warning. I was so shocked when I saw that my favorite style that made my store in last year is completely gone. Now I have to spend so many coins on just one image in GPT style. Like I can't just go to ChatGPT and do it there for free. So I decided to spend rest of subscription coins on CartoonTool, with cartoons about my cats and maybe some other stuff and then cancel subscription.

And, what I mentioned above, new products. I recently got amazing gift from designer I like, she gave me coupon for her store to chose a product. My kind of rule is not to spend more then $5 on Etsy when I need to buy something that I can't find in CF. So I chose her amazing template for Vertical hidden paperclips. I learned about that from Annanie a year ago when I joined her membership, and I was looking for template, but it's so expensive in other stores. But with her coupon, Terri's shop was best choice.

She also has another store with finished products. These hidden paperclips are so cute, right?

And for the end, freebie from CF (while we can download it, at least)

Have fun and I'll be back next week with new monthly freebie.

Thanks for reading, your friend

NEWS Hi everyone!Brr, we are again in cold weather. It's huge change now, even colder than in February.Cats are doing fine, eating their new favorite foods and having fun each day. Lilly loves to cuddle more now, and Zorro sleeps more and more. It's starting to show that they are older cats now - more and more white hair on Zorro's black coat, and less spark in Lilly. PAYHIP I created only one new pack during last week, I didn't have time for more. LINK https://payhip.com/b/SvIog MY...

NEWS Hi everyone!We are finally in warmer weather time. It's nice and sunny, around 75 F (24 C), and it feels great!My cats are fine, you'll see newer adventures in comic down below. I didn't work much on new designs last week, didn't have time. But I am planning to do a lot of French inspired images. It's something about this weather and overall images of Eiffel Tower that I see in many FB groups that gave me an itch to do some French designs. We'll see what I can come up with during this or...
