Weekly Wrap-up: fall in love with Fall!

Why hello there friends!
It’s time to wrap up another week gone by, seven more days crossed off our calendars bringing us closer and closer to the end of the year. Can you believe that? The temperatures are cooling wonderfully, the cross breeze I’m experiencing sitting here at the computer in my apartment is actually making me cold… and I LOVE it!
Fall is my favorite time of year. I just told my husband this morning that I’m pretty sure October through January are my most loved months. Not only for the cool and cold weather but for the colors, the holidays, the everything.
Now that Fall is seriously upon us (or very nearly so) I was positively thrilled to see so many beautiful kits in the store, new and old, that embody that rich warm and cool bold pallets of Autumn.
And of course I plan to share some of them with you! (each image is linked, so all you’ve got to do is click the image and it’ll take you straight to the product. 🙂 )
These are just a few of the many amazing kits we have in store for the impending season. I really recommend looking through them, you never know what gem you’ll find that you didn’t know was there!
Today, in Wisconsin (that’s where I’m at- *waves!*), is our pride and joy, the Green Bay Packers, season opener. The state goes into a FRENZY during football season and whether you like football or not the love for our team is so contagious that you just can’t help but root for them. With that said I know I won’t be the only one hosting a game party throughout the season- no matter who you’re rooting for, and with our August Buffet: Go Team! you’ve got plenty to scrap those game day photos, something I’m entirely TOO excited about!
There are a few days left to get your emails in for our Ad Team Call! I’d love to increase our fun little team to include some bright new faces!
Kawouette Designs is still looking for a few people to add to her Creative Team! Make sure to check out her call as well.
One last thing, before I go, because I don’t want to forget! Book Club is back for the month of October, and the poll to pick our read is up! So do head on over and vote for next months book!
I think that’s about all I’ve got for you today, I’m sure I’m missing something or maybe a few somethings- but if you head over to the forum you can see all that’s going on! Hope you all have a super happy scrappy Sunday!

Fresh Baked for September 07, 2012

Is it really Friday? I swear, I turned around it was already Tuesday. Then Friday. Wow. It’s been a short week here, courtesy of Labor Day. I’m a day behind.
The weekend though gave me lots of opportunities to experience the beauty in life. I love that feeling, don’t you? Just being able to take a deep breath, smell the hint of fall in the air (or spring, depending on where you are in the world, of course). It’s the chance to take a moment, and soak in the beauty all around us. That’s what makes life beautiful!
Life is Beautiful is more than just a great buffet. It’s an ability to reflect on what exactly makes life so wonderful and grand. Maybe it’s the smile on a child’s face. A fresh rainfall that makes the air feel more comfortable. Even just the ability to sleep in can make a day, and life, beautiful.
So, while you’re reflecting on the beauty of life, make sure you check out what the designers have cooked up. There’s a little something in there for everyone. The movie goer, the back to schooler, even some commercial use! It’s a great selection of new!
Remember: when you spend $10, you get this for FREE! This month, Pixels by Jen has created September’s new Grab-bag and it is gorgeous!

Sneaky Peeks!

Good morning everyone!
This week has been a wee bit crazy, and I blame having Monday “off” (except mommies never get a day off 😉 ) and throwing the entire week into a “What day is it again?” Beth is out so I’m taking over for her today… lucky, or perhaps, unlucky you! 😛
I’ve got just a few sneak peeks for you today but enough to get your excited- well, I’m excited! So get ready, this is going to be short, sweet and I can’t wait to see everything in shop tomorrow!
First up is a beautiful looking kit from Kawouette Designs
I absolutely love the soft feel to this and neutral enough for all sorts of pages that come to mind! I am super excited about the paint splatters I see and the papers are so dreamy!
Speaking of papers, here is something coming from Joyful Heart Designs! These grungy papers have such warm feel to them I can already see them in some gorgeous fall/Autumn layouts!
Sticking with the trend of warm colors, this pallet from Connie Prince has me thinking of my favorite season and wishing for it to hurry up and be here already!
I love the purples, golds, greens, browns, the everything! I am really excited to see what else is included in the kit! Not only does it look like a promising wishlist item 😉 but the page created has some true words of wisdom- thank you to the CT!
I’ve got one more for you, a new release by Blue Heart Scraps!
I am SO over the moon for all these colors! I’ve got my eye on those hidden ribbons and banners too, and the papers! OH THE PAPERS! I’m just so entranced by all the color honestly, I can’t stop oogling it, my brain is all sorts of mushy so excuse the horrible writing. 😉
That’s all I have for you today, I know it’s not much, but quality over quantity right? 😀 I can’t wait to see what else sneaks into the store tomorrow. Make sure you pop in first thing tomorrow morning to see all these designs and more in full!
Have a happy scrappy Thursday!
April
