Hey Ladies,

The new Basic Grey monthly kits are here for November and December!  The November one features the Nook and Pantry line and the December one features the Eskimo Kisses line.  They are both super cute.  We only get 12 of each one so don’t delay.  Basic Grey even sent us a Bonus Kit featuring the Lemonade line and, of course, all three kits come with great embellishments.  Some of these embellishments have up to 72 pieces and you only need a couple for your layout.  It’s like getting a whole lot of freebies!!!

Thanks to all the ladies who were in my Calendar Class today.  We had a great time creating these cute little chipboard calendar books.  A little paper, some adhesive, some sewing and paint dots.  What a great way to spend an afternoon.

Happy Creating,

Mossie

Oh My Gosh!!! The new line of Basic Grey Eskimo Kisses has arrived. It’s soooo cute. With so many of the papers being double sided, there’s actually a combination of 36 different co-ordinating printed & solid designs. The designs and colors are really versitile too. They could be used for holiday, snow theme, “Our House to Yours”, Home for the Holidays, or even Valentine’s layouts. You’re going to love them. The hardest thing will be making a decision as to which one’s you want. Problem is… I want them all! Don’t wait- you know, they won’t last long.

We currently have the Holiday Issue of Creating Keepsakes Magazine! This issue is packed with creative ideas for making Gift Albums, Layouts and Tags! There is even a contest!!!  

One section in the magazine has creative holiday layout quotes for your pages. Such as “Oh What Fun,” or  “Maybe Christmas,” he thought, “doesn’t come from a store. Maybe Christmas… perhaps… means a little bit more!” – The Grinch, How the Grinch Stole Christmas by Dr. Seuss or  even this quote from Leland Thomas, “In the eyes of children we find the joy of Christmas. In their hearts we find its meaning.”

And then, if that is not enough creative holiday goodness they threw in an Advent Calendar contest:

Create a completely personalized Advent calendar at MemoryBoxCalendars.com/ck and enter it in our advent calendar design contest. Ten lucky winners will receive free calendars and coupons for discounts on Memory Box Calendars products!

I love Advent Calendars! Love, love them. How fun to create a Advent Layout! I can not wait to see what all of you have submitted! Happy Creating! ~Susan B.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner.  How about making your Thanksgiving just alittle extra special by making your name placement cards.  At SGT’s you can get your supplies and use the Die Cutting Center to make your table extra special.  And with the cute card kit of the month you could use as an invitiation to your Thanksgiving Dinner. 

Happy Creating,

Happiness is Scrappiness

In the aftermath of last week, not my most favorite week on the year all things considering, so I definitely needed a pick me up.  I think moping around the house for a week is more than enough, it’s time to get back into the groove of things and get a move on.  So, with that in mind, I did a mini-photo shoot with my doggie, Nani in all of her costumes… Since I don’t exactly have a lot of halloween pictures, but LOTS of halloween paper, I needed something to scrap about!  Take a look: Hopefully, I can actually do something with these pictures soon.  Will keep you updated.

Hope everyone had a great Halloween!
