Ditters Doodles

Hello, again.

2012-01-09T13:56:00.003-05:00

I have deleted some things on here and it seems more need to be archived or deleted. Lulu stopped hosting digital media and has deleted my entire store. I think this was a foolish move on their part. The worst part was the warning in July that they were going to delete the files in October, yet the files were only live for me to see from July until October. You'd think they would have left them up for sale, after all if someone buys one of my files they make money too.

On that note, I'm looking for another store where I don't have to have a monthly upkeep, meaning I only get charged when there's a sale. So if you know of a site such as that, drop me a line here or at dittersdoodles@yahoo.com. I guess I have become a favorite designer for many of you and have been missed dearly. I will be returning, slowly at first because I do need to finish other projects I have started.

Please bear with me for the extinct links between this page and the others, Freebie Vault and Totally Templates. I'll do my best to clean it up. I have the FV linked to a Facebook page, a good place to see when I have new posts via Networked Blogs, or you can subscribe through Google Reader, they have an android app that I really love.

While I was offline, Filefront chose to delete all of my files. Actually, I didn't even get an email warning this time. Usually they do. I apologize. When I am able to I will restore everything, mostly the templates. If there's a dead link, please make a comment to that post because then I'll know what you want and what is missing.

Doshie Woshie Kit

2008-12-31T00:05:00.002-05:00

My newest kit. It's a complete kit, minus an alpha. Everything in preview besides the papers come in each color of the palette. A great mix of pastels and brights. My son Josh was called Ditter Dosh, Dosher Woshers and Doshie Woshie, so I named this kit after the colors I picked that matched one of his baby blankets I was going to scrap.

12 Days of Christmas Sale

2008-12-11T15:33:00.003-05:00

Every item in my store has been reduced by 25 cents to $3.00 - including a kit you can grab for only 94 cents!! The average item was reduced by $2. This sale is for 12 days only. After that, they will go back to their previous prices. Yes, even my snowglobes are on sale!

If you'd like me to burn a DVD with some kits on it and mail it to a 3rd party for Christmas, act NOW! Send me an email with your request and I'll give you a price and payment instructions. I have to send these by Friday, December 19th in order to get them there in time - but the earlier the better. It has taken 6 days for regular mail to ship a DVD from me in Michigan to Ohio, but only 3 days for one mailed the same day to Utah (go figure!). If you want rush order, it'll cost a bit more since USPS will charge more, not me.

[PS Been updating the blog's and their layouts, but can't do it all in one day, so bear with me.]

Snowglobe Factory

2008-12-03T16:45:00.003-05:00

I didn't take the time to put together a preview of all the items you'll get. These globes are fairly large. If the preview was 3600 pixels, the Gorjuss Girl globe is to scale, taking up about 1/4 of the page. The floral globe in the upper right is complete as shown. The upper left is a snow overlay. Scrap tip not mentioned in kit: take this snow overlay, copy the layer 2-3 more times, rotate, maybe tint it, to get more snow. Save each snow layer as a complete globe (hide the other snow layers), open all saves as a single image in layers, rescale, and save/convert to animated gif to get a blinkie. [Hope that was understandable, lol.] Too many flakes? Use a circle brush and erase a few randomly.

Inventory 120 megs:

50 Globes (various colors, styles, deco)
36 Pedestals (in 2 styles)
5 Glowrings
1 Diamond Circle Overlay
5 Glitter Overlays
2 Highlight Overlays
2 Jewel Overlays
1 Metal Bead Overlay
3 Unique Snow Overlays
2 Snow Underlays
1 Sand Underlay
1 Confetti Sand Underlay
1 Confetti Underlay
1 Landscape Underlay
2 Templates
1 Card of Scrapping Tips

To purchase and download, visit the store.

Sorry, but no CU use is available on this item, however feel free to scale these down to make things for PERSONAL use on your blogs and sigs, like blinkies.

Here's a preview of what I did with these. The Gorjuss Girl globe comes in all parts shown, minus the girl. Spooky Claudine can be made with the included finished globe, complete with clouds, fog, tree and moon. The third one is just a silly underlay that I made. You'll have to put a globe on it, thus the name underlay. Or you can simply scraplift it with goodies you have acquired. Scrap Orchard has TONS of goodies perfect for this, as well as a couple of my kits available below (Grass Stains, Korynne, Spring Attacks Autumn).

To purchase and download, visit the store.

Commercial Use License is available on this item (CUL must be purchased).

NOTE: The alpha has a hollow line in the middle. It's the design of the font. I could have filled it prior to making it metal, however I liked the effect. You can use your color picker and the palette chip and with brush work on a lower layer you can fill in this if you get an undesired look beneath it. The Isadora Kit's alpha matches this kit to a tee as well as my Exquisit Sleek Silver alpha. Create a different look by attaching the letters to the charms. Isadora preview demonstrates this look (the alpha isn't attached although the preview looks as though it does).

Items in the previews are not to scale to each other. Drop shadows added to some only in preview. Everything is shown. Cardboard items, ribbon frames, alpha and some papers are the only items that do not come in each color of every style.

Spring Attacks Autumn Kit

2008-11-22T21:57:00.002-05:00

We're in the middle of autumn, our leaves here have left many trees. I'm wanting spring so bad and to skip winter completely. When I saw this color palette, I thought it was so springy and earthy. That's exactly what you get with this kit, a bunch of spring and earthy items, including pastel purple and pink leaves. In fact, everything you see in the preview is in each of the 10 colors of the palette, except the papers and there's fewer alpha sets.

253 Megs of Inventory:

23 Papers
5 Alpha Sets
10 Bows
1 Hole Shadow For Bow
1 Scrap Tip for Bow
10 Envelope Ties
10 Tags
10 Polaroids
10 Ribbon Roses
10 Pearl Roses
10 Sassie's Silky Twist Ribbons
10 Flowers
10 Separate Stems
30 Leaves
10 Grungey Edge Overlays

The preview doesn't do it justice. There's so much to this that I'm sure you'll find everything from baby pages to autumn pages from this kit. Look at it like 23 papers, at least 23 layouts.

To purchase and download, visit the store.

Commercial Use License holders (DDCUL) can use this kit for profit ventures. Email me to purchase your own license to use. Per kit and lifetime packages available.

Shown only in main preview are 1 of the 10 grungey edge overlays and the alphas.

Korynne Kit

2008-11-22T13:22:00.000-05:00

This bright and earthy mix is a sassy kit full of new items I just extracted as well as a return of my signature layered frame in a much larger size. You'll have lots of fun creating many pages with this from autumn layouts to baby memories.

Topping off at a whopping 270 megs you get:
24 Papers
1 Glass Alpha - Willow Font*
8 Alpha Backs
10 Bows
5 Flowers
8 Frames
1 Glass Doodle
3 Glitter Doodles
8 Grungey Notebook Pages
8 Leaves
8 Stitched Frames
7 Twigs

*Tip: Use the color palette and the willow font text to add color beneath the glass alpha if you don't want to use the alpha backer or it as a clear element, or even to add depth with the backer. I had my text tool set at 900 when I made the alphas, to get an idea on where to set yours.

To purchase and download this kit, visit the store.

This kit is available under the Commercial Use License (purchase of CUL needed).

Items are not to scale. Everything is shown.

**Isadora Kit has a photo block template for the stitched frames. To make your own, use the wand tool in the interior of the photo, enlarge selected area (in Gimp it's select>grow) until the marching ants appear on the stitch. On a new layer beneath the frame, bucket fill. Now you have your template. If you already have your photo beneath the frame, simply select invert, edit cut. You can use similar methods to create a colored or paper layer beneath the alphas and the glass doodle.

Isadora Scrap Kit

2008-11-22T11:45:00.000-05:00

2 circle bead frames
6 beadline sets
24 bead strings
6 single beads

The alphas in the main preview are not really attached to the charms. You will have to attach them yourself. There were too many options so I opted out. This alpha will also go really well with the SinahAnn kit. Some charms do not have the bottom bead. In many cases, with and without the bead was offered. Most of the items in the previews are not to scale. The beads preview, most of them are to scale to a 12 inch page, meaning they will be large enough for any project. Drop shadows were added to items for the preview. Most do not come with shadows. All items shown.

Expect the kits in the store around the 22nd. Tammy will make quick pages with these, which ones and when is entirely up to her. I'm not sure when Dawn will get bitten by the design bug. The two of them have been such a big help with getting everything online for you guys. And Sassy has been gracious enough to let me have lots of her CU goodies for free! Thanks so much gals!!

Berniece Adelle Kit

2008-11-11T09:49:00.001-05:00

This kit was named after one of my great-aunts. The grays reminded me of things in her house and the pinky peach reminded me of a box she had in her bathroom. Her and my 'unkie' Cecil were the best.

So, this kit is about 200 megs. It has a lot of elements, some I left without the drop shadows. If you ever need a shadow and can't make it yourself, feel free to ask and I'll send you some. Scrapbooking programs are getting better since they have to compete with Corel and Adobe and many are now offering a shadow tool.

Here's the inventory:
1 Alpha Set
16 Background Papers
4 Layered Flowers
5 Grungey Notebook Pages
6 Photobook Pages with Ribbons
6 Photo Corners
5 Pearl Stickpins
5 Swag Borders
