What Love Creates ...

is the name of the hunt that starts tomorrow! Really excited to give you all a sneak peek of the prize that I have in it.

For this hunt, which only lasts until February 14th, I put together a set of six 512x512 terrain textures for your enjoyment :) On this lawn, someone scattered about some 3-D, glossy hearts in varying colors. This set can be paired up with last weekend's "Spring Lawn" texture set.

To see who else is in the hunt, check out the What Love Creates' blog also linked to the right.

So stop on by the Main Store, grab this prize and click on the WLC sign to get a starting LM. Happy hunting!

Springing ahead ...

So, definitely have spring on my mind these days LOL! This weekend's release is going to be all about nice, bright green lawns, love and flowers. Hope you're in the mood for those things, because that's definitely what I'm in the mood for during these drab gray Central NY days.

There are ten 512x512 textures in this pack. Among the textures are lawns featuring grungy and clean versions of various declarations of love that have been painted onto the lawn much like on a football field. Also is what I call a "garden scene," consisting of a Celtic knot with some garden stones around it and a walking path around it, and fields with flowers, leaves and one with a runaway Easter hat. Lastly, to give builders full versatility, as always, I've included a plain seamless and plain shaded version of the lawn texture.

Stay tuned! Because on February 1st, I'll be in the What Love Creates Hunt, in which the prize will be a pack that complements this particular pack. Be ready for it, hehehe.

Of course, the half pack of this set will be put up on the Midnight Mania board in the Main Store, and scribo-group members -- the Chipaholics -- will get a sampling of this texture set as their group gift, woo hoo! So, if you haven't joined the group yet, join quickly, before I send the notecard out on Friday!!!

Last but not least, this weekend I'll have a Weekend Sale item, which will be the previously released Hearts Galore. Only until end of day Sunday, the FULL PACK of this texture will be available for 35L -- 50% off the regular price! Be sure to snap up this deal while it's still goin' on.

Have a great weekend.

Love Is In The Air ...

Almost literally! After I released the alpha-layer texture set of hearts, I got the itch to make some particle emitters, just so I could see how they look as particles. Loved 'em, so I figured why not offer them for sale in the shop?

Along the back wall, with the new release, you'll find the vendors. Each emitter is just 19L each, and is voice activated by the owner only! I've got an example of the Golden Open Heart version of it going so you can see what the particles look like.

If you're a beginning builder, and you'd like to know how to make your own, I'm planning to send instructions on how you can make your very own, basic particle emitter. But, you'll only receive it if you're in the Chipaholics Anonymous group! So, if you're not in it yet, be sure to join up. Group members also get a sampling from all new releases when they come out, so be sure to join in!

Finally, I wanted to give you all a sneak peek of this weekend's sale item. I have spring on the mind already, so many of my sale items and releases will be with that in mind for a while.

This weekend, on Friday, I'll put up another limited edition bundle of the Faded Linens textures. I've picked out four spring-toned colors and packaged them up for you at a discounted price of 89L. Usually you'd end up paying 120L for all four of these packs, and this particular bundle will not be made available again any time soon, so be sure to grab it while it's still around!

As per usual, I'll have this sale item available for you until end of day Sunday.

Have a great rest of your week! I'll be in touch with you again soon in a few days. Muah!

I ♥ Hearts!

OK, so having a tough time this week getting things going LOL! Unfortunately not going to be able to get the new release, group gift or Midnight Mania boards going until Saturday (tomorrow), but in the mean time, I can TELL you about what's in the works.

Firstly, the new release this week is a set of 14 alpha-layer heart textures. There's a variety of single and double glossy hearts, a couple of groovy hearts, floral hearts, and more!

Of course, group members get a selection of the set sent to them as a group gift.

Starting Saturday (tomorrow), the half pack will be in the Midnight Mania board in the Main Store. Be sure to bring some friends and slap the set down to get your own sample of this set. Unlike my usual deal, I'll be running the MM board until Monday since I'm getting such a late start.

None of my usual sales this week, sorry all! I just couldn't pull myself together enough this week to pull it off. RL has me going in all directions, I was lucky to get around to doing this, even! Mehhhhh.

Making the hearts helped cheer me up a bit though, so I hope they bring you as much enjoyment as they brought me while I was putting them together!

More Plaid ... Bring it on!

It's the weekend, and we've got MORE PLAID! This is the last in the series, hehehe. Hope you enjoy it! The half-pack of this set is in the Midnight Mania board in the Main Store, so be sure to stop by and try to slap it down!

Don't forget that the Clearing House sale that is going on, also in the Main Store, continues until the end of day Sunday, Jan. 8th. After that date, all the seasonal and older textures will no longer be available in-world. They're all being moved to my Market Place store and will be available there only after this sale ends!

So swing by and grab these deals while you still can!!!!

Happy New Year!

Best wishes for a happy, healthy New Year to everyone. May you be blessed this 2012!

To kick off the new year, I wanted to turn your attention to a good-cause event that is taking place in SL. Creator and Chipaholic, Jaxie Oceanlane, who owns *RSS* Rose River Saloon, made the Boudoir Chair that you see in the picture here. She created it using some textures from the "Punched and Stitched" pack that she won in a Midnight Mania board in one of my shops. It's loaded up with 7 very cute poses!

Best of all, you'll find this chair in a wonderful charity event, the 2nd Annual Props and Poses Fair which starts at 9 a.m. SLT today. This event serves to raise money for a wonderful organization called the International League Against Epilepsy. Please be sure to stop by this venue when it opens to support a very important cause, and look for this wonderful chair!

I've also got the Boudoir Chair on display in the Main Store, feel free to stop by and try it out if you'd like!

As for stuff in my shop, while it's not the norm for me to start a new event on a Sunday, I couldn't resist doing something on the first of the year, hehehe. So, I decided to clear out some prims and hold a "Clearing House" sale from today until January 8th. In the sale you'll find the texture packs that appeared as hunt prizes (5L each pack), seasonal texture packs are reduced by 50% off the full price, and older/less popular texture packs that are set to crazy low prices as well (meaning, the equivalent of about 1/2L per texture in the pack. For example, if there are 10 textures in the set, you would pay just 5L for the full pack -- it would usually be 50L!)

Don't worry, the textures will still be available in my Marketplace store, with the exception of the hunt prizes. I just want to make sure I leave myself some extra prims in my tiny shop for all the newness coming up in 2012!!!
