Sneak Peek 8-1-13

Hi everybody!  Happy Thursday I hope everyone is doing well.  Can you believe it’s August already?  It’s crazy to me how fast time is going by.  The kids will be back in school before I know it.

I am so excited about the layouts that I have for you today.  Our designers and CT have really done a beautiful job this week.

Keystone Designs has a new kit coming that looks fantastic.  The colors and patterns work so wonderfully with colored photo’s or black and whites.

If you have boy pictures that need to be scrapped then you need to check this kit out from Created by Jill.   I really like the blocking

in this layout and I love the text path around the frame.

The colors and elements in this new kit by Wendy Tunison Designs are just outstanding. The clustering and use of patterned papers in the following pages are

super.  I’m really digging all of the clusters.  They are just lovely.

I hope everyone has a great rest of the week and enjoy the weekend.     I’ll see ya next week.

Fresh Baked: August 01, 2013

Good morning! Can you believe that it’s already August? Feels like the newsletter for July 01 was just getting sent out, and now we’re at the first of August. Soon, we’ll be watching

This month, there’s no official theme to the buffet. There’s a unifying color palette, and the kits play together beautifully. Enjoy the August 2013 {Designer’s Choice} buffet series this month!

We have NEW Buffet options!! You asked for it, and we listened! The GS Buffet will now included FULL size kits!! In addition to the mix and match packs, you can now also find full size kits in the buffet section. The price point has been adjusted accordingly. Everything in the Buffet will always be $4.00 and under. Every month the new Buffet items will all be 50% off (from the 1-5th of the month). That means Full kits for $2 and a ton of mix and match packs all for $1!! You will not want to miss this!

The designers all had their own take on what the colors and theme said to them! I love the variety!

Remember, if you don’t want to hear the sound, just click the button next to the play button, and it will mute it for you. The designers knocked it out of the park. The designs are just amazing and so well done! [Read more…]
