What a great year of growth and learning this has been! I think I accomplished more new things in 2022 than any other year!
Yes, the year is not over yet. But I was just reflecting a bit.
This is the year that I plunged into scrapkit designing and fell in love with all of it! I also just learned how to script signature tags in PSP. Aaaaah!!! What a time saver! SO addicting. Ummm because its so easy! I'll have to search around and see if anything like that is compatible with Photoshop.
I finally conquered Zen Cart too! I wanted to have a zen cart many many years ago for pixel siggies. I opened it up. Saw all the files. And promptly left. LOL
But I was determined this time. yay!!!
Just not so sure I would be able to manage a team of other designers. I don't want to be responsible for paying anyone or anything like that. So thats why I am the only seller on my store.
I also sat down and learned things that were very popular 15-20 years ago. And I just didn't have the patience or the time. So, I buckled myself in my chair and learned:
creating boxed incredimail letters (border/table style)
I discovered that the scrolling window ones kinda suck. lol So I didn't spend much time there. But I sure do love me some tables!!! And then up next was Sig Machine! Yay!! Did not thing I would ever master that and have it all functioning and decorated. But yups I got'er done.
Now, I just fell in love with Procreate. Oh My Goodness! *faints* I love that a person doesn't have to actually be a real artist. There are settings that the app practically does half the work for you! So cool!!! Of course I love all the glitter and constellation brushes LOLOLOL

'Advent Calendar'. Each day come back and click on the
current date to be presented with a new siggie
to add your name to.
It is not to be used to make tags for a bunch of friends and claim as your own.
It is to make signature for yourself. A gift for a friend is fine. But not
to make a bunch and offer as your own work...
Thank you for respecting

LOL!
But seriously. I am on the greatest adventure ever. Not only just having a blast designing digital scrap kits now and learning new things all the time. BUT, my friend Mags was kind enough to introduce yet another layer of artistic love to me.
PROCREATE!!!!!
oooh my gosssssh!!
I love so many different styles of art. Cute is one of them lol
And I love Flo's videos. No rambling or annyoing tangents lol
- Manga Doll
- iced coffee!!!
The app is for ipad. And it is so phenomenal. I had no clue that the ipencil is pressure sensitive. All I've done on my ipad is play mobile games lol!!
Flo, gives away SO much for free. I just have to get out of Photoshop long enough to learn about it.
I'm also very excited to check out Pretty Little Lines - very much my style too!
First I want to complete all the winter/xmas kits I have partially completed and get those
available at my stores.

TK Dezigns!! I absolutely love it. She always does such a beautiful job with themes and blinkies. Love Tammy's style so much.
She even used one of my scrapkits I recently made.
It's called Yule Embrace and comes with the ©ViNina doll you
see in the header.
I have put copyright on my preview for both
©VinNina and ©Angelica S. but they are not tubes.
Kits can not contain more than 1 copyright tube.

I don't understand why people find it so enjoyable to treat other people like trash. Why do some people find it so enjoyable to try to get ya fired when all your doing is your job, just because they didn't get the outcome that they wanted.
Seriously!
It's like Mercury Retrograde is working over time. But its over with LOL
Printers and computers are not cooperating. People complaining to the Owner because things don't happen exactly when they want it to, or how they want it to.
Tenant cussing at me being rude yesterday because she doesn't understand why on earth would you have to pick up your dog poo and take them off property on a leash to poo. Ummm really?...
At least I have my scrapkits I can work on when I get home that make me feel happy...
I qualified to keep my apartment for my annual recertification. I can afford the increased rent when it goes to 790.00 in January. And I have a job and food and my Freya and Willow have food and my bills are paid. So its all good xoxo

I am so happy. I didn't know I could ever be happy like this!
I have really really gotten hooked on digital graphics in a way I did'nt ever think I could. I have been so in love with being able to create my own graphics through other artists scripts. SO much fun watching it transform right in front of my eyes. And being able to purchase beautiful graphics and licenses to work with those as well and be able to make my own money!
Incredible!!
I wanted to grow up to be an artist so badly when I was a kid. And this is close enough for me :D
I could not have ever dreamed that I would be making digital scrap kits, commercial use packs, and be accepted as a seller on a place I've gone to for years and always admired - Pics For Design. It truly does feel like it's "my time".
I've even revived my social media accounts to reflect my new digital journey.
Now if I can learn to juggle and manage everything in an organized fashion. Ummm yeah, 'organize' really isn't my forte' lol
And a good friend starting CT'ing for me!! The excitement just doesn't stop. I'm telling ya!
My friend Mags--
I swear my heart is going to just overflow!
Thank you to my ((((Mags))))

I have been having the best time creating, building scrapkits, building my zen cart store. I have accomplished so much. And yet feel like I am just getting started.
My friend Mags really made my day when she offered to make some papers for my very 1st kit. Which maybe that one is cursed or something because I still don't have it up in my store lol I'm redoing it for about the 3rd time now.
Once I got started on creating scrapkits though more and more and more ideas kept popping into my head! I actually had to start writing everything down.
It has really been the funnest time learning new things.
Found out I lovvvve buying scripts. It is so fascinating to watch them go together in Paintshop Pro!
I won't always update on this blog when something goes into my store. I have a blog for that.
http://faeriecharmdesigns.blogspot.com
I am also adding in my free IM letters.
So, still plenty of work for me to do. :D

I have been learning about creating scrapkits. It is so fun and so uplifting. I love learning new things. Especially things that I have admired for so many many years. I am finally immersed in the world of digital graphics. Pixel graphics will always have a piece of my heart. But this is really really where my soul is.
I have wanted to figure out Zen Cart for a LOT of years too. LOL
So excited to get the store finished and my products in there I've been working on.
The Updates and Announcements for my store will be on my store blog.
All links will be posted when everything is all finished and ready.

Sometimes its just so wild to me that some of these kits are free. They are so so beautiful. This is one such scrap kit.
I also used the art of Alicia Mujica. The witch is called Sophia.

I was so so scared. Anything can happen during surgery. It was a robotic surgery. Four hours. And several hours went by without my sister and I hearing from our dad and my brain just spins out of control imaging the worst things... *ugh* spazzy brain...
She did great. She is out running the nurses. She is going to come home and out run my sister LOL!! She could feel a difference in her chest immediately. She told my dad her chest feels different the very 1st day out of surgery...
I'm feeling so much better than I was a few days ago. I see everything is going to be alright now.
My sister and I will both be so glad when they are just out of L.A. and back home.
On Tuesday I really could not function well at all at work. And then to top it all off a former tenant that almost burned down the apartments called and harrassing me again about a particular tenant she think should not be living there and she thinks he is staying there without me knowing it. NONE YO' BUSINESS!!!!
I know he's there. I MOVED HIM IN! sheesh!! So, that was pretty much the wrong day to mess with me and I called the police and gave them her number and name. They already know exactly who she is anyway lol Know druggy, trouble maker, ....
Now on to better and positive things :D
I am making my 1st digital scrap kits!!! I am so flipping excited and having so much fun! Learning a lot about commercial usage, creating my own elements...

Of course except for the money part lol
I feel up, alert, content. Got all refills approved that I asked for. And she wants me to get labs done to have a look at my low thyroid levels and possible arthritis pain in my shoulders and elbows. Ordered x-rays too. Not totally convinced on that one. I have no medical insurance. So...

I really can't say enough good things about it. Savage Dezines has over 80 pages of beautiful scrap kits to choose from. I remember Cherie from way way back when we were in the pixel community together. She has done so so well for herself with her gorgeous scrap kits and poser tubes.
There are so many beautiful talented designers at All That Glitterz also. It's so hard to walk away without taking the entire store with me. LOL I think I have an addiction forming.
I am so addicted and in love with scrapping tags now that I really am feeling a pull to give it a try myself. I can't understand why the kits are so low in price though. It's just nutty. lol The money that is spent on licenses, CU items... Then all the time that must have been spent on collecting any free CU items and reading the terms at each website, possibly communicating with the web owner... ihhh yi yi!!
I have always loved and respected the scrap art though. It would be really nice to give it a try.
I've bought a little bit of CU products.
So, at some point - we will see if I have what it takes... :)

Yeah, a lil work ranting today lol
It completely amazes me that my maint. man quite often tells me - yes I told you. But you forgot. Hmmm... So its not your fault - EVER and you offer up the explanation that I forgot. And offer that up frequently and very very easily. hmm...
I call BS!
I'm not going to forget that someone abandoned their apartment; when I'm the one asking him a week earlier if he has seen any movement from a specific apartment - his neighbor... Then I receive dropped off keys in my office this morning and go ask him if he saw her moving out. Oh yeah last week. WHAT! And you didn't say anything at all to me??? Yes, I did. But you must have forgot. oh uh huh...
Furthermore, perhaps if he answered in one word instead of no, yes, no, yes, no I don't know. I saw her carry in some boxes is all.
Ummm ok, I'm extremely busy and take that as a no.
I am so sick of this situation.
I get so down. Why does it feel like I'm still married and trying to communicate with a child?
I would have conversations with my husband, and he wouldn't remember them. He was always blaming me for things that were not my fault. And so so much more. Now I get to work with someone exactly like that.
Same zodiac sign and everything!!
So, like I said; it must be so horrible to be perfect and have to be around
people that are less that him!
Oooooh Calgon! Take me away!!

I was given an outstanding wonderful gift today. Those in the graphic community, taggers, those who purchase scrapkits will understand. But I was gifted a HUGE BMS. (Buy My Store)

I start feeling the fall vibes usually the end of July or August.
I'm so excited to use beautiful autumn kits!!! And this one is just so beautiful,
I feel like I could create with it over and over and over and never make the same creation twice...
HERE is the 1st set I have created.
Below is a preview of a couple of them.
