Hey there Oddballs! Im sorry we are so late this week, I ran into technical problems with my computer and it stole way too many hours of my life this weekend, completely devastated my weekend plans but things seem to be working now so here we are! :) |

I recently discovered a website that lets you create virtual jigsaw puzzles out of your pictures. Ill let you in on a little secret shhhh .....I had a small jigsaw puzzle addiction growing up, I would complete some pretty massive jigsaw puzzles and then glue them together for my wall, a bit of a jigsaw puzzle geek I guess you could say. lol Its probably safe to say that I haven't even touched a jigsaw puzzle in well over a decade but when I accidentally stumbled upon this website called Jigsaw puzzle explorer well, OMG....and I know what you are thinking right now....sure sure, computer problems? You're 2 days late because you spent all your time playing virtual jigsaw puzzles! lol ...and no I truly wish that was the case but sadly no, my computer hates me at times and this weekend was no different. Anywho, back to the puzzles.... I thought it would be fun to create a new puzzle each week to go with the Creepy Cute Chronicles images! I have created 4 to kick things off and you can play them on the Oddball website HERE. It works on both desktop browser or mobile browsers. Just click thru the images to see the 4 available puzzles right now and give it a go.... they have a timer so you can time yourself and see how fast you can complete one. I would love to hear what you think about them, if you want to leave a comment in the CCC group, link below or you can always reply to this email. I hope you enjoy the new puzzles as much as I do! <3 |

Our theme for January is MAKERS GONNA MAKE - Get Your Mojo Back Our theme for this week is "Create the Future" and the images that I have created to go with this theme represent what "Create the Future" means to me in this moment. I couldn't help but think about the upcoming year and all of the crafty fun things I would like to do in our group and a lot of it involves snail mail/happy mail and so I created a set that will be great to use for envelopes, cards, tags, ATC's, stickers and more especially when taking part in any swaps or anything involving snail mail. |
|
|
| | This premium set of 6 creepy cute snail mail/happy mail images, has all of the black and white images seen above and also includes the pre-colored versions shown on the sheet above. | | |
|
| | This FREE download includes the black and white line art of the "You've Got Spooky Mail" badge as both a jpeg and png file with transparency. | | |

How freaking cute are these images Celia is working with below to create Valentines Day cards. Another great way to put these images to use! |

Ghouls download a FREE exclusive stamp set each and every month!! Since opening up subscriptions for the new Ghouls plans and closing new subscriptions for the original "Full Access" plan, I've been asked a few times now if Full Access members are Ghouls too and my answer is to this is.....OF COURSE.... you all are the OG's aka Original Ghouls ;) Even though I am no longer selling new subscriptions to that plan, those of you still subscribed to it can continue your subscriptions indefinitely. So yes Ghouls includes ALL paid members of this spook-letter! This month Ghouls can download this creepy cute pandemic party girl, she's celebrating New Years eve in lockdown so she's wearing her comfy pajamas but has her face and hair all done up for those New Years selfies since social media is her only social life through the pandemic!
