Yesterday was 03-13-13 and tomorrow is the Ides of March. While these dates are interesting, they fall short in one respect - they lack a dessert connection!

If you are a digital scrapper, you might already know about "One Buck Wednesday" at Jessica Sprague. Every week some items from the Digital Shoppe are offered for either $1 or 50% off. Click HERE to go to the home page and then you'll find news and announcements with the link for One Buck Wednesday in the lower right corner.
Normally this sale lasts only for the day on Wednesday but this week the sale has been extended to be "One Buck Wednesday-Thursday" and will last until midnight Pacific Time today (Thursday).
Sometimes there are incredible deals, like this mega pack called Cuckoo 4 U by Samantha Walker (one of my favorite designers). This huge set is just $1 (originally $26.99) - but only until midnight! This week there are items from Echo Park, Carta Bella, Jenni Bowlin, Lori Whitlock and other well known designers. Lately some kits with SVG cutting files have been offered - so it is always a good idea to check the Jessica Sprague site on Wednesdays!
I have used lots of my digital kits from Jessica Sprague with the Silhouette Studio software. There are so many possibilities with the print and cut feature. This birthday card is an example of digital elements and papers used to print and cut all of the pieces for a paper card. You can read all about this birthday card HERE. When you see the Silhouette machine cut out these printed digital images so perfectly it just makes you smile!
I won't be making pie today - I am trying to avoid sweets for a while. My sweet treat will be to spend some time in my craft room after I get a few sets of documents sent off in the mail. I am still plowing through paperwork for my Dad's estate but I am starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Hi Diane. Your blog is always so much fun. I just wanted to let you know that you are a great enabler. I finally succumbed and bought a silhouette portrait. So thanks for the hint about Jessica Sprague. Have a great crafty day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the interesting facts. Instead of Pi day, I celebrate the birthdays of my middle son and my granddaughter.
