Join us for a Template Scrap tonight!
Fresh Baked! 5/13
I just noticed as I was writing in the subject of the newsletter that it was Friday the 13th. It got me thinking about bad luck vs good luck. Do you believe in superstitions? Do you avoid passing under ladders? Do you change your path if you see a black cat? Well I hope not. I don’t want you hiding under the covers today. There are just so many great products coming out today.
Before I show you the new goodies, don’t forget a new Welcome Kit comes out today. This week’s kit is from Cari Cruse!! If you missed any of the previous week’s weeks don’t worry! They are all still there! All you have to do to get them is make sure you are registered in the forum. That’s it!
So now onto the new releases. Don’t forget if you spend $10 in the store you get this free grab bag by Creations by Julie for free!!
Our guest designer is up first!!! Don’t forget Valarie Ostrom’s store while you can!
