Patsy Beachtime and Lots of Freebies

I had lots of great suggestions on my 'freebies - your choice' post earlier this month.  Please continue to leave more suggestions (preferably on the original post as it keeps them all together when I go looking for inspiration!), and I'll see if my mojo will kick in to create something you may like.  It's all still a work in progress and I keep going back to your comments for more ideas.  To be honest, I'm not too good at different shapes, so requests for specific nestie label shapes is difficult as I don't have most of them (I only have one!), and I'm an accountant not a graphic designer so the simpler the better!!! (tickets and circles/squares are about all I can cope with at the moment)  However, requests for different texts are more than welcome, and I will get around to doing as many as I can over time so bear with me, and don't forget to keep checking back to see my new creations.

Today I've got lots along the same theme, "Special Birthdays", and a card to share with you using one of them as a sample to whet your appetite!  The image is the adorable Patsy Beachtime from Stamp Fairy (after yesterday's stray away from 'cute', phew, I'm back to normality again today!).  I've used my circle nestie and really kept the design simple as the colours on the papers (from Summertime Designs) were quite bright.  I tried to go for a sandy colour scheme to go with the beach image, but it turned out more orange than sandy, but I guess that is still a summery sunshine theme, so it's not all bad!


As usual, my conditions are:
  • Please become a follower (if you're not already), so you see more freebies as they're posted (and more are scheduled over the next week or two so keep your eyes peeled!),
  • Please don't distribute my digis directly to others, but I'd be delighted if you let others know where you got it from (if you're asked) so they can come on over and grab anything they want, and
  • Please leave me a comment to let me know you've downloaded them so I know it is worth me spending time creating more.
Click on each image that you'd like in order to see it full size, then select Save Picture.   I'm happy for you to resize and recolour any of my images to suit your projects. 

There are lots to choose from today, so take a deep breath and dive in. 
Here goes ...











I'd also love to see the creations you make with my digi so please feel free to email me a link to your blogpost and I'll be delighted to pop along to see how you've incorporated it to your project.

I've been inspired by the following:
Have fun.

Thank you for putting these together and sharing them with us.

I, too, have a background in accounting and straight lines and circles are about all the shapes I can handle. If the outline gets too wonky it throws me off big time!

Gorgeous bright card Netty and yes, a real cutie :)

Orange is still sunshine, and it still captures a summer-beach look.

Great freebies, thanks so much, I love them.

I love the ticket shapes too, and dont seem to see them much.
