Celebrate Life with Beltane!

Beltane is the last of the three spring fertility festivals, the others being Imbolc and Ostara. It is the second principal Celtic festival (the other being Samhain), celebrated approximately halfway between Vernal (spring) equinox and the midsummer (Summer Solstice). Beltane traditionally marked the arrival of summer in ancient times.

Beltane, and its counterpart Samhain, divide the year into its two primary seasons, winter (Dark Part) and summer (Light Part). As Samhain is about honoring Death, Beltane, its counter part, is about honoring Life. It is the time when the sun is fully released from his bondage of winter and able to rule over summer and life once again.

Modern day pagan observances of Beltane include the maypole dances, bringing in the May, and jumping the cauldron for fertility. Many couples wishing to conceive children will jump the cauldron together at this time. Fertility of imagination and other varieties of fertility are invoked along with sexual fertility. In Wiccan and other Pagan circles, this is a joyous day, full of laughter and good times.

This gorgeous little scrap kit brings you everything you need to scrap out your Beltane festivities. It comes with 15 papers and 40 .png elements, plus one fire element poser.

You are getting 3 flowers, 3 bows, 2 decos, 2 frames, 2 ribbons, 1 athame, 1 besom, 1 book of secrets, 1 brad, 1 candle, 1 cauldron, 1 chalice, 1 color swirl, 1 dream catcher, 1 fire, 1 fire line, 1 flame butterfly, 1 flower scatter, 1 full moon, 1 grass border, 1 hat, 1 leaves, 1 mask, 1 May pole, 1 old grove, 1 pentagram, 1 phoenix, 1 plant, 1 stars, 1 sun, 1 tag, 1 Taurus sparkles, 1 unicorn, and 1 wand.

300 DPI. Personal use only.

It's Raining Cats and Dogs on the Scrappin' Your Heart Out April Showers Blog Train!

It can be very hard coming up with a different variation on the same theme. I'd already done one big kit called April Showerz, and then Chris wanted a rain day theme for the sampler freebie at the W4E forum. So it was April Fools Day when I booped myself on the head and said "I should have done a bath themed kit and called it April's Shower!"

However, I pretty much had this one done. So...maybe next time around. This one is spring themed with 10 rainy day papers and 25 cute (I hope) elements that are little different from what I've done in the past.

You are getting 2 bows, 2 flowers, 2 frames, 2 ribbons, 1 cloud, 1 duck in boat, 1 frog, 1 lightning, 1 puddle, 1 rain boot, 1 rainbow, 1 raindrop chick, 1 rain hat, 1 raining cats and dogs, 1 snail, 1 spring ribbon, 1 tag, 1 umbrella, 1 vine, 1 wishing well, and 1 water drops.

300 DPI, personal use only and your choice of size on the download, either full or taggers.

Stay dry, and have fun scrapping!

Check up on Oral Cancer Awareness on the Digi Blog Train List

y mother likes to tell the story, of when I was seven or eight - I was a precocious child - and I went outside to where my dad and my uncle were smoking and I told them "You need to stop that. Smoking will kill you." They laughed at me. They wee big tough men, and thought nothing could hurt them.

Both died before the age of 45. My dad had it easy. He suffered a stroke, was paralyzed down the left side of his body for a number of years and then finally died of a heart attack. My uncle ended up with Oral Cancer. He had been considered a handsome man, until the Chemo and the Radiation and all the surgeries took their toll and left him with only half a face. In the end, the cancer didn't kill him. He committed suicide because he felt alone and worthless and couldn't take the "treatments" anymore.

Cigarettes. There's a surprise waiting in every pack for you. Oral Cancer is not a fun one. For more information on Oral Cancer Awareness, please check out Oralcancerfoundation.org.

This kit however was inspired by another family member, who is also a smoker and just got done with radiation treatments: my sister. She, of course, is still smoking because "cancer doesn't run in our family" despite the fact she just underwent radiation treatment for breast cancer. ::sigh::

In any case, her story is that to this day she claims she saw the tooth fairy. I will tell you a saw a real live unicorn once, but I'll also admit to being stoned at the time.

So...this little digital scrap kit is all about teeth and fairies. It comes with 10 papers and 25 elements. You are getting 2 flowers, 2 frames, , 2 strings, 2 thread bows, 1 bird, 1 bubble tree, 1 butterfly, 1 clean your teeth word art, 1 coin, 1 fairy, 1 fairy dust bag, 1 fairy dust, 1 fairy flower, 1 fairy moon, 1 fairy wand, 1 mushroom home, 1 sparkles, 1 tag, 1 tooth, 1 unicorn, and 1 vine.

300 DPI Personal use only and yes, your choice of full or tagger size on the downloads.

Enjoy. And please stop smoking.

Enjoy a Night at the Movies with Digicats!

On April 12, 1914, Mark Strand opened the first "Movie Palace" to the public in New York City. Going to the movies quickly replaced the storefront Nickelodeons that people used to watch "the flickers" at, and within two year the number of theaters in the United States had topped 21,000.

At that time, perhaps only Adolph Zukor, president of Famous Players/Lasky Studios, which would eventually become CBS Paramount imagined a time when people would movies, not just at a theater, but in the comfort of their own homes as well. Whether is comedy you like, or drama, action/adventure, sci-fi, or mystery, the movies seem to have something for everyone.

Have some Rainy Day Fun with Digicats!
