it's all news to us, it's all news...

Sorry, the Backyardigans are playing in the background... It's one of my favorites - The songs in this particular episode are Motown inspried and there's one that reminds me of how Christy and I would torment Kiersten at the Store... "News flash, it's big, big, big!"

This weekend is the Scrapbook Summit, and we are R.E.A.D.Y.!!

New kits include a winter theme - a staggered chipboard album with lots of embellishments and texture:

An inspriational theme that you can see if you bear with me and click here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/queenvannacreations/3253813405/ (One day i'm going to learn the ins and outs of this crazy place, but for today, I hope you will forgive me because I can't figure out how to flip a picture once it's here! Indulge me, just this once!) It's a BLACK chipboard album with lots of little surprises.

And the sweet deer album pictured in the last post, it's so DEAR! - so much happening, so much going on. It's all news to us! =D

busy little bees!

we have been so busy making new kits!! we have our new baby kit on our website and on etsy, as well as a mini SMILE! album. they are too cute!! tonight we'll be putting a christmas keepsake box online as well!

we even have a few more kits that are mere minutes (ok, maybe days) away from being ready to go! preview: (go ahead and say it: "ACK! the cuteness!!")

AND HERE WE ARE!!

We delivered the kits to New England Scrapbook Company yesterday, and listed 5/6 of the kits on etsy - the last (and the best, in my opinion) will be over there tomorrow.

The packaging is spectacular, and Christy has been putting the finishing touches on a Mini-Kit that will be available some time next week.

As for today, Day 2 of Scrap Can Do - LIVE!, Christy is taking a little time to be under-the-weather, and i'm chasing babies (per usual), so it's back to life as we know it.

We are so excited - we've already had a few sales, and the initial feedback has been great. Can't wait to hear more of what everyone thinks!!
