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

Upcoming

We're working at a frenzied pace here at Scrap Can Do! We've got things in the works for a November 1 release, we've got things in the works for a workshop in December (stay tuned!), and something in the works for Scrap Pink! on Sept 27!! This is also our big "unveiling" day at New England Scrapbook Company.... we've been on the shelves for a week now, but we are going to do a formal introduction on the 27th. How exciting!

We've got some seasonal projects coming down the line, as well as zoo, baby, some mini-kits, and a few other secrets! Woo! Crank up the coffee maker, it's gonna be a long day!! =D

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!!
