Teen Scene Halloween Release Day!!!

Whoop Whoop!  Release day, release day!!!  Ok, so I hope you are all going to FLIP for the last 4!


One more addition to last year's Addams family: Baby Jude Addams!  Is he not the CAYUTEST little monster you ever saw!!?? You will get him by himself but this is from Corinne's project on her blog and she has made some changes to hers.


Next we have Chrisenstein!  Sweet and gentle monster that he is!


Then we have Betty Bride of Chrisenstein! Of course what's a monster without his bride!?

Last, but not least we have All Wrapped up Rio... I had to, cause I had a wonderful idea to merge last year's Mummy London with this year's Jude Mummified... and Rio had a complete fit!  "MOM!  London is not Jude's sister, I am, he's my little brother, I should be paired with him!  Mom I have to be a mummy too so I can be with my baby brother!"  Geez, how can I not oblige right?
Again, you will get her as a single, but Corinne has made some changes to hers.  you can check out what all she has done on her blog when you get to hers in the hop.


Of course the DT has prepared more FANG-tastic projects for you, please head on over to their blogs and check it all out!
Jan

All these are available today in digi from until Sept. 7th.   Head on over to the shop for bundles, deals, and wheels (well, not wheels, but the deals are there!)

If it's ok, I wanted to address the digi issue really quickly... I have been asked why do I limit them... well it's out of FEAR, I fear that my images could potentially get into the wrong hands, as some have.  When I release new images, I know that my most awesome followers and fans are aware of the new releases, so I can count on those wonderful customers to grab them during the limited digi run.  In my head, I believe that the people that have indeed shared and given away my images aren't always paying attention.  Or I would see those people buy the digis more often.  It seems to be sporadic. So again in my head and with hope, I think that then maybe those that seek to harm me won't always be aware of new stuff and won't always be able to grab the digis and harm me.

I do not do it to frustrate, punish, or disappoint anyone.  I would be hurt to think that anyone would think me that type of person.  I merely seek to protect what is mine the best way I can.  I will always have digis available, will always have those that I think would be the most popular as limited, again in the hope that I will prevent any re-distribution without my permission and unfairly amongst those less honest.  I work hard, on my images.  I want to put out only high quality images and therefore take lots of time and care when inking and readying them for my awesome customers and there are LOADS and LOADS of awesome customers!  Please don't hurt me or my customers... I am not saying that you would hurt my customers because I would pull the digis, but because everyone works hard for their money, and everyone should have the respect for one another to be fair and pay for their merchandise as all my awesome customers do.

Sorry guess it wasn't so quickly!  LOL Thank you anyway for taking the time to listen.

Lots of Halloween hugs- Betty

Today I am super excited to add to last year's Addmas Family!

Miller Addams!
Who doesn't love that Kooky uncle right!! This one was a real risk for me, not sure everyone would want a little baldy, but I think he's absolutely adorable!


 Scissor Hands Rio!
Inspired by Rio's costume last year, I just had to have her in stamp form!



Now get to trick-or-treating to the rest of the blogs!

Why

Our DT Member Suzi seems to have been attacked, not once, twice, but three times... but why?


This person talks about integrity in their Privacy Policy...

Our privacy policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to combine the highest quality products and services with the highest level of integrity in dealing with our 
customers. 

Did they use that integrity when they slashed at Suzi?  Did they execute Suzi's right to privacy when they took her image and posted it on their site without permission?  


Perhaps they only extend such courtesies to their customers and not everyone else.  I am not sure what Suzi, SBS or any others that have been put on "blast" by this company have done to deserve such a bad spotlight from them.  If it was something SBS or one of the DT members did to the The Crop Spot or any of their sites, friends, members and etc. I personally apologize, I would have just liked to have known that I did something wrong and would have liked the opportunity to apologize personally to whom ever I have offended.

They go on to ask if Simply Stamps has license to some of the characters done.. like the Jedi Betty...fist of all if you are going to talk about someone, at least get the name right!  Second, I did not COPY the image from Star Wars, the images is inspired by Star Wars.  From what I understand that is acceptable, if I am incorrect I apologize publicly.  I was wrong.  All I can do is apologize.

Why is it, that in this community of crafters, we have some amazing people.  Strangers that become friends, friends that grow, and people that will help one another out at a drop of a hat... but then there are those that bully still, as adults.  What is it?  Why?  Does it feel better?  Does it make your day better?  Did it enlighten you to point fingers?  Did it make YOU a better person to hurt another?  To speak poorly of someone you don't even know?  

Let me finally voice my opinion about these CLlCKY Types and those bullies...

Someone once told me, that SBS is not as popular as it could be because I don't BROWN NOSE enough!  What?  I was clueless, what do you mean brown nose?

I had to sit and ponder a few days, I remember asking a few other companies in my excitement for CHA if they'd like to meet up... I got a few, "No, I don't have time for small business" or "I don't associate with your kind."  Really?  I never thought of anyone's business as small business.  I never thought of anyone as YOUR KIND.  In a few groups I have also seen others talk about their own DT members,  and then praise those DT members... is that what brown nosing is?  You are right then I will never be a brown noser!  EVER!  I don't send out innuendos or try to get everyone to agree with me before I state my own opinion just to "put someone in their place"!  But I also don't consume my time with what everyone else or the competition is doing.  I just do what I do and that is that.  I march to the beat of my own drum, if I am doing wrong then I will meet my own stick end correct?  If I am offending it is not on purpose as I do what I feel and what I like.  I will not KISS ASS to forward myself, my customers and audience will be with me through thick and thin for what I do and not how I know or have been ass kissing.  Sorry I meant BROWN NOSING!

I hope you can all understand this frustration.  I hope I have not OFFENDED anyone, but if I have then the shoe fell where it may, I guess the coat fit!

Teen Scene Halloween Preview day 2

So did you all have a HOOOOWLING good time jumpin' around yesterday with Hooowlloween Miller and Batty Jude?  Those two are some Rockin' dudes no?

Ready for more Spooky fun!?

I did something totally different with today's previews... Potion bottles!  I bought these years ago and finally got around to using them!

 Cacklin London is ready to brew up some fun!



 Bwains Christian looks pretty hungry to me eh?




Don't they just look perfect together?

Check out our New The Bettys Villains!  They are super evil, super, cute and all Betty!

Betty Wicked Sorceress



Betty Sea Witch 


Betty Fairest of them All


and finally but not least... Betty Deville!


Now don't tell me those aren't cute and funky!  I had a blast coloring these up, and creating these fun tags with them...who knows what I will do with the tags, but who cares they're cute!  Maybe I ought to put them in my Villains case... yep I have a gun rack that came with the house when we bought it, but not having one gun in my possession, I turned it into my Disney Villains shrine!  I have all four of these  cuties in Barbie doll form.  Actually I don't have Ursula yet, but I have seen her on ebay!  Maybe Santa Clause will get her for me for Christmas (that'd be my husband, he was born on Dec. 25th)!

You can grab these now in digi (for a limited time) and in rubber form... they are both bundled up with 8 sentiments!  Whoohoo!  Something I have not yet done, rubber sentiments, they are fun I promise!

Well, I hope you enjoyed my tags for this awesome release, please head on over to my DT gals to check out the awesomeness they have created with these cuties!
