Good Morning! I wanted to post a little reminder for you all that World Card Making Day is coming up next Saturday, October 3rd. Here is the official website. I also added the official WCMD blinkie over on the left hand side, just scroll down a bit (it's under the designers faces.) Please feel free to grab it for your own blog. I hope you will all gather your CC2G or other card making kits and go to town making cards!! Some of our designers are going to participate too! I had planned on CC2G being involved this year but with all we have going on right now we will have to wait till next year. Several of you have asked how Baylee is doing. I am keeping all updates on her webpage at www.adreamforbaylee.com and there is now an email notifier on the left hand side.

My little reminder to you all....Please, please PLEEEEEEEASE remember to only check out with ONE kit in your cart so it doesn't mess up the shipping amount. As always toppings are shipped FREE with your paid kit!

You'll notice both the MAIN kit and MINI kit in their own sections. Take a look in the DT Gallery to see what the designers came up with...lots of Father's Day cards! PERFECT for the month of June!

Sneak3 + Sub'r Info
Here is this week's peek although not the best shot. Sorry about that..we've had crazy cold then super, blazing hot weather here in CALI the last 2 weeks. Hard to get a good pic indoors. Now don't go crazy..that's not white string you see there. I wouldn't send you all string! HAHA It's actually this really cool hemp cord I found in WHITE! GORGEOUS! And, perfect for tying anything. Thick and strong. You'll love it! The swirly paper is one of my favorites by a new company out of Canada, Upsy Daisy! The paper is double sided and a good weight, not flimsy. You'll love that, too!! And you get 2 sheets!! WOOT WOOT! It's a houndstooth print on the other side which I don't have a picture of, but you'll see some of it in the designer sneaks. (sneaky of me right? LOL)
We have a special treat for you with this kit!!! Eva Dobilas is our guest designer and you will love, love, LOVE the cards she came up with!! Take a look at these 2 sneaks below. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! (pssst...she has even more sneaks on her blog! Go check 'em out!)
You can see loads more sneaks on the designers blogs. Just click here, here, here and here. :D
Info about Subscriptions
I wanted to let you all know that we will no longer be offering subscriptions. It was a tough decision. However, since we are such a small company (and by "we" I mean ME...I run the business by myself) it made sense to go back to a completely non-commitment type of club. It's very time consuming keeping up with a subscriber list and that is time I would rather spend creating awesome kits just for YOU! Not to mention creating some cards of my own. ;) My passion is more on the creative side of things and I'd like to find that again. :) Starting in June we will go back to having our kits debut on the 1st of the month as a buy-it-now option, just like it used to be. First come-first served. We have significantly increased our numbers in hopes that we have enough kits to go around. I will continue to share sneak peeks every Monday up to reveal day so please make sure to visit the site and come back on the 1st when kits go on sale. The kits will not change...we will still have main kits and mini kits available at the same prices they are now.
Heads up! During the month of June we will have several sneak peeks to promote our July kit! SNEAKS on Monday's AND several (and I mean sev-er-al) stamp giveaways you will not want to miss. It's sure to satisfy your scrapbooking sweet tooth. ;) So don't wait for the "Monday email" to reach you! Check back on the home page each day to see if there is another giveaway OR if you are a winner!! The fun begins on June 8th!
Have a great week!

May 09 Kits
Hi Everyone!
I'm so excited to show you these beautiful May Kits!! We have several mini kits available which INCLUDE rubons this month. YAY!
My little reminder to you all....Please, please PLEEEEEEEASE remember to only check out with ONE kit in your cart so it doesn't mess up the shipping amount. As always toppings are shipped FREE with your paid kit!
Painted Lady is such a pretty butterfly so the name for the kit came naturally. If you've ever been to a butterfly habitat you know what I mean. We're debuting our kits a little bit differently this month. You'll notice both the MAIN kit and MINI kit in their own sections. Doesn't it look nice? So much easier to view. Also, our Designer Gallery this month is bursting with fresh new card ideas so make sure you head on over there. You'll find cards and a pretty project that is perfect for a Mother's Day Gift! ENJOY!
We have some exciting news!! Scrapbook News and Review is going to be featuring CupCards {to go} in an article! I am so anxious to see it! It's going to be ready mid-month so I'll be sure to link you all up here on the home page when it's ready.

Carla also offers a challenge for all of you. And, since April is EARTH MONTH, I think it is very appropriate. :)
Hello ladies!
I am so excited to be joining you this month as a guest designer! I hope you found my reveal inspiring! I had so much fun working with Cassonda’s kit, absolutely scrumptious!! Yum! I have a little challenge for you this month called, “Waste Not, Want Not”! In your card kit you will have received a gorgeous pkg of Dream Street rub-ons!
Well... i want you to take that backing, and ‘reuse’ & ‘recycle’ it into one of your card creations!! You can see on mine I used the backing for the base of my baby card! I love nothing more than lined/graph pp... unique & fun! So let’s see you “Waste not, Want not!” Please post your creations in the gallery or on this thread or leave a link here in the comments section for me to see and at the end of the month i’ll draw a random name to win a RAK compliments of moi!!
Have fun ladies, I can’t wait to see what you come up with!!
