NEW Christmas Digital Images & Ephemera and 2013 Free Calendar!

Hi Everyone, 

I have so many Christmas things to show you today like our Image & Ephemera Retro Christmas and Vintage Christmas Download Sets, which feels like giving birth to twins, very exhausting but so fantastic!   We also have FREE S&H in our Crafty Vintage Girl Store this week and this months free download gift with any digital order is our Christmas Mail Digital Stamp Set (1 per month)


Over the years I've spent a small fortune buying a mix of  beautiful antique and fun retro  Christmas images and love both styles so much our Christmas grew into 2 collections with Retro Christmas and Vintage Christmas.
 
If you love fun retro images like whimsical Santa's, snowmen, adorable children and animals, festive frames, embellishments, words and more – you will love  Retro  Christmas Images & Ephemera with a festive mix of over 100 different images and embellishments for $9.95. It's designed to go with our Printable ‘Retro Christmas Papers’ $7.95.  If you order both digital downloads (no S&H)  a $2.00 discount will be applied at check out and you will get a instant download link. The best part is you can start playing today!




 The images above are PNG Files so the frames and cute animals have been 'cut out' or layered digitally. You can also print and cut and glue the same way you normally would if you don't have any digital knowledge but please read my tips here on Best Free Digital Software because there are so many cool things you can do!  These are some of the jpg files and you can see some files have several images on 1 sheet.




 
                   Okay, now look at these fabulous samples by our DT ladies!
                            I love how cheery and fresh the retro designs turned out
 Here are 4 of the 'Print and Fold Place Cards or use them as gift Tags


 Yippee says Santa!   Vicki paper pieced this cute Jumping Jack Santa from a B&W pattern on the Retro Image & ephemera 


If you love pretty old fashioned Christmas images, shabby vintage styles and ephemera you will love this series!  Our Vintage  Christmas Images and Ephemera Digital Collection  are designed to go with our Printable ‘Vintage Christmas Papers’ and when you purchase both a $2.00 discount will be applied at check out. as an instant digital download.    We have CD's on order and they should arrive later this week. 

   
For $9.95 you get an instant download with over 100 different images and ephemera in a mix of  designs for cards, gift tags, ticket strips, big images for pillows and wall art, 4 postcard fronts and backs, fancy frames awaiting your holiday photos, advent numbers, words and a fabulous array of embellishments.


       Here are 4 holiday place cards with a print, cut and fold style.  
          You can use as gift tags as well.

 DT member Darlene Pavlick designed this stunning album using recycled cardstock with various papers from the Vintage Christmas Paper Download $7.95 as well as images from the Vintage Image & Ephemera.

There are other new digital items like  
Christmas Paper Dolls & Tree for $2.95

Angel Mini Box and Tag $2.95

Old Santa Basket & Pockets $2.95

 More Digital Art Stamp Sets will be added this week as well

 Lastly,  I need to devote a post to Calendar Ideas again but below is our 2013 Printable Calendar and here is more decorative 2013 Calendar I posted in Oct (scroll past Halloween samples).  Right click the calendars a couple of times to get large as possible, then left click it to save to your computer.
 Please remember our files are for personal use only unless you contact us for commercial use. I've been working on an easy way to offer this and it should be available online this week. Basically double the price for limited sales like card making and scrapbook for hire  (less than 25 sales of any 1 item). Triple the price for large items like images on pillows, aprons, sales over 25 of any 1 design.  Most important - Crafty Secrets must be clearly given credit on the item, or the packaging or the write up.  All businesses must register with us to use our designs on items they sell and no digital files, downloads, CD's , etc may be sold.

Giveaway - Our Vintage Christmas Printable Paper Download!

Hi Everyone,  

Here are the pages from our Vintage Christmas Collection and I'm really excited on how beautiful they turned out!  You can click on each group below to see them larger.  Cindy, our graphic designer, did an amazing job adding multiple layers on many of the designs. I made this quick cover but it's crooked as I didn't want to cover the cute snowman's head. Leave a comment below to be entered to WIN Both this and our Fun RETRO Kit!

This introductory Vintage Christmas Download Collection is $9.95 ($1.00 more than the Retro) and has a bonus included so you can play and try some of the image files that will be available next week. You get 35 designer papers, a PNG file with 2 robins, a colored card greeting, 4 large Christmas tags and a Santa that prints 8.5 x 11”.  Next week all the images and embellishments will be ready and can be ordered together or separate.


The patchwork quilt paper below gives you 25 squares of several designs which can 
be used to create an advent calendar



Here are some bonus extras you get as an introductory offer

                                           Love this Christmas Cone Vicki made

Tea light jar she made using bonus Santa image.  The Santa will print on a 8
.5 x 11" pillow and would make a great pillow


 DT Member Darlene Pavlick created this planner by repeating the colored bird image over and there will be a tutorial showing the steps she used.
 


 DT Member Rebekah Fairies made this adorable stocking


2 Pretty card Vicki made with papers from the Kit and the bonus birds.  Sorry, I just realized 'Welcome Christmas' will be on the extras matching kit next week.  You will be able to order the Papers and Embellishments for $15.99 and there will be pages of card verses, eephemera images, postcard backs, frames and all sorts of embellishments.


 Also, our adorable Christmas Mail Stamps have become a Digital Art Set and I love how big the Santa and girl are now!
