Hey All! This Fall I have partnered with Sprinkle N Sparkle who are bringing select Fred She Said Designs images to RUBBER :) They are based in Florida, USA. Check them out!
This Fall's release has brought several seasonal and festive images to life as high quality rubber stamps! These stamp sets also include Sparkle N Sprinkle's wonderful custom created sentiments.
Sparkle N Sprinkle stamp sets are made of high quality rubber and are finely-etched. These close-cut stamp sets are mounted on cling cushion. Each set comes on its own laminationcard for easy storage. Peel the stamps off the card, place them on your favorite acrylic blocks, and stamp your project. After cleaning your stamps, replace them on the convenient storage sheet.
I am pretty sure all stamp sets have available to purchase coordinating digital cut files ( if you don't like fussy cutting ) and Sparkle N Sprinkle's own digital stamp versions of their sets.
Here is a link to all the sets that are available in their Fall Release :) GO HERE.
Here are the Stamp Sets featuring Fred She Said Designs :) Click on image to go to product page at Sparkle N Sprinkle.

Have a great day! Me? ... back to working on some Christmas images... hopefully you will see what I am up to by the end of the week :) :)* Fred
This is a scan of a hand watercoloured Doodled Floral Corner1 with 2 pre-coloured butterflies ( from Doodle Flower Trio Digi Set )and 2 "digitally watercoloured" backgrounds similar to the sample cards below.
Sample Card ( download does NOT include sentiment )
I
also hand watercoloured and used coloured pencils on Simple Rose Spray
and I scanned and manipulated it to make 5 coloured versions. I love
the watecoloured look of these!
Long time no post! I have added new things to the STORE :)
This is my last hurrah to SUMMER. As I am posting, this is the LAST DAY of SUMMER in good old Canada. Hmmmm is it the start of summer or spring on the other side of my world? If it is, you lucky peeps, flowery summery images for you yey! LOL
Sadly we could be expecting frost VERY SOON and snow sometimes in OCTOBER here, what!?
So to forge forward we need to say good bye to summer with a COUPON CODE :)

umm before I begin... I must confess these projects got a bit out of hand. LOL I started to play with Diamond Rose from way back as a corner element. So I pulled it apart and converted it to a Simple Rose Spray. Boy did I have fun with it. I figured out a trick to WHITE emboss black printer ink! More about THAT in an upcoming post. I got playing and was coming up with all sorts of cardfront configurations. Because it is a bit more tricky to configure and angle digital stamps on cardfronts, I did it for you. :) I made sentiments while I was at it. I was going to leave it there and put it in the store but NO. I had to digitally paint it and make multiple pre-coloured versions which ballooned into multiple cardfront versions.... you get the picture! oh boy. It's a big wallop of files LOL. Have fun!
I added a new product to the store. I liked the birds so much, I started a project with just the field landscape and got severely sidetracked... for another time perhaps. Gotta just know when to stop and ship it out ;)
Now I am going to get on Crackin' on CHRISTMAS! Have a great day!
I had a customer have a problem with the discount code expiring. It seems the setup I have to now use to make discounts sets the expiry date one day earlier to what I set it at. I can't make rhyme nor reason of it. I am so sorry if this created any inconvenience for anybody.
I have extended the sale to SEPT 7th midnight EDT... which actually means I take the coupon down the next morning ( SEP 8) while I drink my coffee, so this kind of thing doesn't happen again :S

I am going to post this right now as my graphics card on my PC has started GLITCHING last night!!! ( must have been from all the crazy colours I was inflicting on it LOL ) Note: can of compressed air and getting rid of tower & fan dust bunnies seems to have helped... crossing fingers and saying a prayer!)
Just an update on the status of the store :) and dropping off an old freebie :D
I have been waiting for a third party selling service to be ready. It is finally working. I am currently editing EVERY SINGLE PRODUCT on the Fred She Store by hand and reuploading everything so I can offer instant downloads. I will be using Payhip and instant Buy Now buttons. They will handle the nasty EU VAT. Currently, I can't offer a shopping cart on the store or discount codes. I have heard from Payhip that it is coming ( cart discounts ). I was waiting for their shopping cart feature to be ready only to find out it won't work via my blog store BUT....
You can go here Fred She Said PAYHIP SITE and see all the products I have currently got loaded. At this site, you CAN use a shopping cart. Hopefully they will give me a way to organize products somewhere down the line... And gift certificates and total discounts.
I will continue to take email orders. I invoice manually and apply discounts I was always offering and gift certificates this way.
I was asked today about some tulip images I had. Doing some googling I have found out that the Operation Write Home freebie that I offered in 2010 "Tulip Trio" is no longer available. So, for posterity, I am plopping it here :)
Please feel free to grab it :) If you use it please comment below with a link. Or link or add photo to the Fred She Said Facebook Page! I'd love to see your projects!
HI ALL, I am just keeping you updated on the situation and a bit of better news :)
UPDATE JAN 10th ( EMAIL ORDERS accepted from ALL COUNTRIES ).
I
am sorry for the inconvenience. It has come to my attention that the
new EU VAT rules will affect how even NON EU sellers can sell to EU
buyers. We are required to collect VAT now for digital downloads and
different VAT rates based on EU buyers country. Until I figure out the
new laws and how this applies to Fred She Said Designs( location is
CANADA) I am preventing online sales through the store until further
notice.
IF YOU ARE A NON EU BUYER, you may
email me your order using email you use for PAYPAL and you must have a
registered mailing address that is not a EU country.I
AM NOW ACCEPTING EMAIL ORDERS FROM ALL COUNTRIES until further notice. I
have had confirmation from UK authority that emailing attachments is
VAT exempt but not digital downloads. Please copy/paste (
with price listed) into your email request and I will create a PayPal
invoice for you ( within 24 hrs). You may also supply an alternate
email for your files to be sent to ( eg. gmail is a good choice for
large downloads) Please put ORDER REQUEST in the subject line and
please specify what COUNTRY you are in ( for my records). Thank you for
your understanding.
I will do everything in my power
to stay up and running. And I will do everything in my power to find a
way to be able to legally sell to EU customers. Please give me some
time to figure all this out.
Thank you,
Tracey Lynn Miller

Don't forget Fred She Said is having an END OF SUMMER SALE until Saturday SEPT 27th Midnight EDT get 20% off orders of $10 or more and get 30% off orders of $20 or more!
DT Nancy and Crystal created some lovely cards using the Scribbled Rose images! Click the links on their names for more info.
NOTE: Pre-coloured Doodled Flower Trio
with Butterfly and a separate set of Doodled Flowers with Butterflies
Sheets will be available hopefully next week. If you are looking to
take advantage of the End of Summer SALE and want the pre-coloured
sets, I will honour and figure out a refund/discount on combined items
for you if you place an order now and one for the next week. Just
email me after your second order and I will work it out and issue a refund. Sorry for the inconvenience. These sets are very labour intensive and, also unforeseen circumstances in the "Fred Household" are taking longer than expected.
I am also having a DT CALL! There will be more info on a later post :)
Hi all! This is for my readers who get Fred She Said posts via email. If this doesn't apply to you, carry on LOL :)
Here's the SHORT VERSION. I have to shut down my current email subscriptions ( all 1500 of you :( ) because the wording on the emails you receive do not supply enough of my contact information to make the Canadian spam police happy. PLEASE use the form below if you would like to receive updates from Fred She Said Designs in the future :) NOTE this ONLY affects email subscriptions not feed subscriptions.
LONG VERSION
It has come to my attention that on July 1st 2014, Canada will put into effect new Anti Spam Legislation. Emails sent to Canadian individuals with any promotional or commercial language are illegal unless the sender has expressed permission to do so before the email is sent. I was misinformed that my email subscribership using FeedBurner was OK because it had a double opt in procedure to subscribe and a way to unsubscribe with every email sent out. Apparently that is not enough. On July 2, I will delete the old subscriber list as I can't find a way to edit the required info into email posts and I don't have an avenue to allow you to re-opt in. This will be the only email you will receive from Fred She Said Designs. NOTE this ONLY affects email subscriptions sent to your inbox not feed subscriptions. PLEASE use the form below if you would like to receive updates from Fred She Said Designs in the future :)
Please note, Fred She Said Designs only sends emails if you subscribe to updates and also to deal with customer orders and questions.
A word to the wise doing business. These new anti spam laws apply to you even if you live outside of Canada. I would advise really reading up on it because it is more strict and encompassing than you might think... and $1 million fines? yikes!
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE EMAIL UPDATES FOR THIS BLOG:
* When you use this subscription form, you are agreeing to accept blog updates from the Fred She Said Designs blog being sent to your email address. In doing so, you have agreed to receive posts that may contain promotions, sales, coupon codes, and product info.
If you can't use the above form via email, please go to the Fred She Said Blog and use it there. I will also put it up in the sidebar of the blog.
There I hope I have covered all the bases. Thank you so much for being a Fred She Said reader!

Here is a watercoloured background card using Koi watercolours and a stencil ( The Crafter's Workshop - Mini Flower Frenzy ) with a pre-coloured MORPHO BUTTERFLY.
I am participating in the Online Card Classes - Watercolor for Card Makers Class. I won't explain how I did the background but it was a super easy AH HA moment.... "why didn't I think of that" ;) The class is great for both beginner and experienced card watercolourers. It is reacquainting me with techniques I have forgot about and has introduced me to new techniques. A LOT of fun and is inspiring me to spend more playtime at my desk :)
Here is the watercolour panel before I assembled the card:
I am going to have a Fred She Said Birthday SALE but I will save for the next post :)
