Some pretty fun news! It has been over 2 years of lovely sweet requests for me to sell my designs.
I make my own things for my paper layouts ( anyone who has had classes with me or hung out and scrapped with me knows how very true this is) and I have made a lot of my own goodies for digi/hybrid pages too, but the thought of making it "good enough" to sell and finding the time to package it all up etc. just made me shake in my polka-dot socks LOL!
In the last 6 months or so I have finally been feeling ready to just go for it, to stop saying "nah" and start sharing my creations...it's been stirring my friends. Seriously.
Soooooo, when my friend Michelle asked me to be a guest designer at the Little Dreamer Shoppe I decided that the time had come at last to finally say "YES!"
So here it is folks, the official launch of Chickie-D Art :)
Time for a virtual Kick off party! please make yourself at home, and help yourself to a few little party snacks I have put out for you here ;)
The decorations are lovingly hung below...

Of course, I bought the doodle alphabet first after spending all that time in class that time at CKU trying to do that myself! haha! You KNOW you have a fan in me and I will buy pretty much anything you put on the site! Hope you and your family are doing well!!!

Your stuff is so fun! Good luck and congrats :)
I love your work! Fantastic!! I can't wait to get the alphabet and some of the fall stuff. Great job!
Yes! I've been wondering if you were going to design products! These are amazing. I've been dreaming up mushrooms (and making my own) but yours are so dreamy and fantastic. True CD-stuff here!
I still want to have you on as a guest on my show, Paperclipping--you headed off to Europe not long after we spoke before. I'll get in touch with you soon. =)
Love the new designs. They are really fun and happy!
I bought your alpha and foliage to start with and am loving them! Beautiful stuff, can't wait to see more! Congrats!
Sweet friend of old, I'm so happy for you. Another fun outlet for all those creative juices of yours. And nothing's quite as fun as seeing other people putting down their memories with your designs. Enjoy that. You are blessing them. Isn't that the funnest? :D
It's so nice to see posts from you and pictures of those WAY too grown up little people. Where's your little baby? Adric and her have grown up into these big people. Where has the time gone? Me miss ya. Buzz me on yahoo as frankcassiesmom if you use that. I'm going to email and pester you either way.
I'm so glad that you're so happy these days. makes me happy.

Hi,
I stumbled in your blog this morning at dawn - my quiet time of the day - and had a surprise. I purchased your brushes at LD a few days ago, thinking "Oh, I love them!" and wondering "Who this designer could be? I don't know her". So, now I know a little bit about you (first: you are a great photographer)and like what I see. Who knows when and how I'll use your designs, for now I simply watch them closely, and love it.
Ciao, Arianna
OMG! Those are the best mushrooms ever!
Congrats on the shop, I saw your little chickie D's there..and will def. be back.
Thanks for the freebies. :)
Thanks for the sampler. Love the sketchy `free spirit' feel of your designs!
Your designs are so cute! Lots of inspiration! Thanks for sharing.

I love your style! Your photography is gorgeous too. I'm jealous of your processing. It's awesome!
Oh wow what beautiful designs. I am loving them all and congratulations to you as well for being a guest designer over at Little Dreamer. You have a gorgeous blog as well. :)

I am loving the look of your stuff, refreshing, fun and super inspiring me to grab some and do some new layouts in a different style to what I normally do!
Hi CD. Huge fan of your work - and I think these new designs are going to be a massive hit !!
Love Joanne (Cork) !!!xx
I love your designs! They are so cute and colorful! And your photography is so excellent and the colors are so vibrant! Thank you for the sampler its so inspiring!
I am soooo thrilled to hear you are selling your designs. Very happy news! And seeing the ones up the store was even better! YAy and thank you for sharing.

maike@mdiers.de
Yay!! I'm so happy you're selling your designs.. you do the greatest doodling!! :D
Love your new designs. So colorful & whimsical. I would love to try out one of your new kits. :)
Fabulous! Good for you! Life is too short to hold back and wait! WTG
Hi CD-thanks for the Happy Sampler! I love your work. :) I tell you something about my day...I feel accomplished because I finished making a book at Shutterfly. I got a coupon for a free one and I thought for sure I'd procrastinate enough to miss out on that great free gift but I didn't. I put my mind to it this morning, pushed aside the laundry and went to work on the computer. Yay! Hope YOU'RE having a great day :)
I just love in the meadow mushies. This is the first year the kids saw mushrooms growing in our yard and they were so excited to see them grow. This would certainly spruce up my layouts of the boring white mushrooms with these. Your designs are really neat and can added the needed pizzaz to a layout.
I bought some of your yummy goodies but I missed those adorable mushrooms! I'm so in love with your artwork - totally adorable!
Congrats, C.D.!!
Way to go!
love ya
Oh CD I am so excited for you. You have been keeping busy. Can't wait to get some of your stuff. Thanks for the photo tips at Inspired, they have made a world of difference in my shots. The other Charlie's Angel!!
Hey there... I think your designs are great... do you think you will ever sell that cute scratchy font/alpha that you use in your designs previews???? That would be totally awesome cause its really cute. My day... ummmm... it was cool (Enjoying being back in the classroom... 6th graders are sooo funny sometimes) Had 9 kids to make the honor roll in my homeroom (totally awesome since I have the inclusion class)!!! thanks for reading about my day and the consideration on the font.

Awesome fun, playful new goodies to scrap with! yeah! something good about my day... I'm still in the warm fuzzy glow of getting to spend 5 days with my hubby ALONE last weekend for the first time in 12 years! I hope it lasts cause it will probably be a while before it happens again! LOL
OMG! This stuff is so cute. I love the fonts... can't wait till I have enough time to sit down and make a layout with it!!
wow...these designs are so unique and FUN!!!! Big congrats!! Lovely work!
Your work is wonderful!!!!

Looks like some fun designs you have come up with. I like the colors!
I'm probably late for this contest but I'm having a great day. My 6 yr old is getting her tonsils & adenoids out on MOnday & she's really nervous about it. I called the mom of one of her friends last night & arranged for her friend to come over for a surprise playdate. My daugther was so much in shock she barely said anything. Too cute!
Wow, this looks great. Keep up the good work! Love, Emma
I just found your site today. And I sure am glad! Your designs leave me "full of happy!!" I'm heading over to the shop now!

Great looking designs! It is about time for you to go public. You make wonderful art. Congratulations!!
I love the alphas so much. They are just wonderful. I think it all looks so good. Congrats!
Today was a pretty good day. Even though the weather stunk, we drove to Freehold to see MIL. Whenever I can go shopping, of any kind, it is a happy day. I didn't get to AC Moore with my 50% off coupon but otherwise it was a nice day.
Yay!!! I'm so excited to play with your stuff!! LOVING the little Chickie-D's!!
cd,
I just got home from Parksville and the weekend scrap. What a treat it was for me to meet you and sit and chat for a bit. I am so happy with the layouts you helped us with and the feelings they brought out in me. I think I can get back to some serious scrapping after so long not doing it. Thanks again, you are a wonderful teacher and person to know.
wow! Love these designs!!
