FREEBIE FRIDAY - 5th April 2013

Sorry if you missed the April free digistamp, but remember on Friday 3rd May there will be another one!
There are however still 3 free digistamps in the store - permanently!

This free digistamp is a very basic image (and is permanently free in the shop), and the end product is probably something you played with as a child, or, you are now playing with your children/grandchildren! I have turned it into an embellishment for my cards/paper creations/scrapbooking activities, and it has such a wonderful 3D effect! If you also use a scallop-cutting tool on the outside edges it creates a fantastic soft look to the pinwheel.
PINWHEEL FLOWER


"Just in case" you have never made a pinwheel before, I also made my first-ever video to show you how to make it up! Be 'nice' to me though - I'm still learning the video-thing!


This was the second freebie (from Jen - who celebrated her 400th digistamp in the store and hence 4 shoes in one image!) but is now available n the store in the Divas by delight category, and is an absolute MUST for any woman - the latest trend of shoes! I am always amazed at how women walk in these things, but they are absolutely GORGUSS to look at and admire!

Just look at what fantastic projects the DT have created with both these freebies!

ENOUGH INSPIRATION TO GET YOUR CREATIVE JUICES FLOWING!


IMPORTANT NOTICE
The freebie is now ONLY available for downloading in the DS4J SHOP. There is however no reason to be 'afraid' of setting up an account in the shop as it IS free, and is easy, and when you add the image to the cart, enter the code and checkout, it WILL be free. There is NO obligation to purchase any other items, and of course next month your account will already be set up!

PLEASE NOTE: Our freebies may NOT be shared, posted on another blog, website, Pinterest, or forum. Only the owner of DS4J has the right to distribute the freebie.
