Friday Musing and Friday Freebie

Morning Musing fans!
It's Friday, and that means two things, it's one day closer to the weekend, and two, it's Musing time! (and yes... there is a freebie!)
But before I tell you about that - let me introduce to you "LOVE2TYPE"
A set of digi stamps, that are both chalk board elements, digi stamps and coloured elements.
The chalk board ones come with five different pre-added quotes, but also a plain paper one and one without paper at all (you will see why when you look at my samples)
You get 11 files in this stamp set - I really do love it - all for the teeny price of
£1.50

LOVE this digi set - I think it is easily in my top 3 favourites. (I know I am biased as I designed it lol) BUT, there is something about it that makes me smile.
I would love to come across a old turquoise typewriter in a thrift shop. Maybe I will one day :)
Anyway - I made three projects for you this week, the first is my fav.
I printed out some of the typewriters onto a sheet of magnet printer paper (search a well known auction site for this paper, it's awesome, and I got 2 sheets for 99p!)
And then I trimmed them out, I love how they look, and I love that I can hold a little note to the fridge with them :)
I also added some text and printed out the blue one and printed out one of the pre designed "love quotes" ones and mounted simply to card. I like sim
ple cards, especially when the graphics speak for themselves.
There are five love quote ones, which would make very cute valentines cards.



And don't panic freebie fans... there is a freebie this week!
"Hello, you fool, I love you"
Valentines Telephone freebie.
If you like it (and I hope you will) You can download the set free
And before you go, are you wondering what to get your loved one for Valentines day that will be both unique, cool and calorie free?
How about a personalised print?
I loved the typewriter SO much that I designed a print.
It is available in a 7x5 printed and mounted form
or digital form sent personalised via email (£4-£8)
And comes with the addition of your chosen name or phrase.
If you want more info - it is in my Folksy store

A wonderful digi set and an equally wonderful freebie!
You are just ace!

BTW, a well-known Hobbies shop sells little sticky-backed magnets and also rolls of magnetic tape, so you could print the digi stamp designs onto your favourite cardstock, bling them up, coat with Glossy Accents and make your own fridge magnets. And all thanks to SJ's Musings!!

It just gets better and better...
I'll post a link in my blog's News column!
