Find Your Bliss & Giving Thanks from Ponytails Designs

“To be happy, one must find one's bliss.” ― Gloria Vanderbilt

Isn't that what we all are looking for, in one way or another? Joy, happiness, contentment, bliss... whatever you name it, we want it! Find your bliss is a softly hued, somewhat dreamy kit that encourages your to find your own measure of happiness. The faded watercolor effects and the sweet elements of this kit will surely help you get there! Find Your Bliss was one third of the DSD grab bag shared by Ponytails Designs, Wendy Tunison Designs, and Keystone Scraps. They were three amazing kits bundled up together, but if you missed the grab bag you can now pick up the parts individually. Find Your Bliss is 30% off for the first week!  

This is the layout that I created with this beautifully made kit:

 

Now, there's just one last thing... In her haste to get all of the DSD posting done, Natasha forgot to include a little freebie for you when she advertised her GS Buffet kit, Giving Thanks. Here's a little reminder what the full kit looks like...     Remember that you can also pick up the elements and papers separately if you prefer. You can pick up this coordinating paper pack on Natasha's blog. Enjoy!

The customers and designers are some of the best people in digi and we are so very excited to have each of you actively involved in our community! You have no idea how you've touched our lives and how much we enjoy chatting with you and looking at your layouts. There is something wonderful about SNP. It's the friendships we create. It's the way our stories intertwine with those of the people we've never met in real life. It's people from all over the world uniting in this wonderful way that helps us to capture those small moments in time that make up the stories of our lives. Nowhere else can you find such an awesome group of people who work and create so closely to build such an amazing community for all of us to feel at home in. This weekend we are celebrating each and every one of you be{You}tiful people. The challenges and chats are centered around getting to know you better. We hope you'll join us this weekend as we strengthen our friendships and our community. I'm sure there will be a lot of laughter and of course they've created a Be{You}tiful collection of goodies for you that you won't want to miss.
