Thanks for stopping by! If on the Blog Train, you just came from Designs by Angel.

This is something I care about that benefits the National MS Society, more specifically, my BikeMS ride. 100% of the profits go to NMSS, so please check it out at MSDigikit.com!

It really is a great deal. It has SO MANY papers and elements from SO MANY designers.

Alright, I’m done with the self-promotion. On to the freebie!

Anyway, I did end up making some fun camera strap covers:

And I plan on making more of these for friends and a few other things for fun. Along the way, I lost my pin cushion. Quite often, actually. So when I was sewing stuff and taking pins out as I went, I found myself wishing that I had a pin cushion actually attached to the machine so I wouldn’t keep losing them.

So I put one on!

All you need for this tutorial is a tiny scrap of cute fabric, a small strip of velcro (if you want the pin cushion to be removable), and one of these cheap little wrist pin cushions:

Take the wrist thing off – mine just slipped right out the little pocket.

Wrap your cheap fabric around the little pin cushion and secure with glue (I used fabric fuse on this step, actually):

Then glue the fuzzy velcro strip to your new cute pin cushion.

Then glue the matching velcro strip to the sewing machine (I wanted mine to be on the side):

Optional step: When hot gluing the velcro on, burn the EVER-LIVING CRAP out of three fingers, leaving one with a giant blister. Scream in pain, causing your husband to jump up out of his chair yelling “WHAT’S WRONG!? WHAT’S WRONG!?” and rush you to the sink, where he will make you stick your hand under the cold water while reassuring the now-nervous always-neurotic dog that you are, in fact, okay.

Crafting is a contact sport.

And after it dries, just stick it on!

Voila! Convenient and cute too!

Sunshine on my shoulders kit, alpha 1, alpha 2, QPs, and stitch set. (Whew!) I really like this kit.

Teri over at Piccolina Designs has been working diligently to help me get the MS Kit in the store over at Ahhh Scrap. I don’t know if you know this? But getting kits uploaded and set up in a store takes for-freaking-ever. And Teri did all the heavy lifting for me at Ahhh Scrap since I was running around like a chicken with her head cut off doing MS Week fundraisers and stuff.

And on top of that? She made a BEAUTIFUL mini for this kit. See?

Did I mention she won Designer Survivor last year? Like, the whole competition. As I’m sure you can tell. She’s fabulous in every way.

So what did I do? I totally left her off the list of designers to kiss in this post.

FAIL.

Anyway, despite all that stupidity on my part, she was still super-sweet and nice to get everything loaded in the store for me, so you can now also find the MS Kit at Ahhh Scrap!!

Bundle:

Movement: A Multiple Sclerosis Collab – Kit and QP bundle

Kit:

Movement: A Multiple Sclerosis Collab

QPs:

Movement: A Multiple Sclerosis Collab – QP/Template Pack

Everything is the same price at both places, and we’d love to see your layouts with this kit in the AS gallery, so be sure to post them there as well!

Thanks again, Teri!! You rock!

And, of course, then there’s me.

But I didn’t make an ad. Because I am the slacker.

Get to shopping! And don’t forget about The MS Kit!!

For the last few weeks, bunches of digital scrapbook designers have been working on a really amazing thing together – I emailed and posted on a forum with a color palette and a theme, and wouldn’t you know it, these incredible women got together and created something beautiful for me, and for Multiple Sclerosis.

Isn’t she beautiful? I have been staring at this preview since the kit was finished. And you guys, it’s HE-YOUGE. Almost 200 papers. More than 400 elements. And 3 alphas on top of that.

I’m blown away.

(And! There are a set of about 50 quick pages/templates being uploaded and coming soon to be sold separately starting tomorrow!!)

And best of all? 100% of the sales of this go to my BikeMS ride, which is all MS Society.

Is anybody else excited??

You can buy this kit at http://www.MSDigiKit.com. And you can tell everyone you know that they can also buy this kit at http://www.MSDigiKit.com. Blog about it. Tweet about it. Share the link on Facebook. Send a carrier pigeon or those crazy owls from Harry Potter. Buy a megaphone and yell the URL at people on the street as they pass by. Get the word out!

You know, if you want to. Please. Please please please.

I can’t thank you ladies enough.

Please, shop at all of their stores immediately. Right after you buy the Movement kit they made. Because, you know, that’s kind of what I was getting at with this post, after all.

We have had some ice days lately (our first, second, and third day of small business ownership, we have had to CLOSE said small business since the roads are undrivable. Sigh. Thems the breaks), so I haven’t had to be at work, and therefore have had a little bit of time to catch up on my Project 365 album. Or, well, start one for the first time since beginning P365 three years ago. Oh well, better late than never. I’m starting with this year because it feels attainable.

I like attainable.

Without further adieu…

(All the photos are clickable for larger images. If can’t read my journaling, all of it is on my Project 365 blog. The kit used for all these pages was Happiness by Creations by Rachael)
