Please scroll down for the Blog Train post! (I think by now it may have flipped over onto the next page.)
Did you miss New Release Day last week? Yeah, we took a week off. We needed a rest and who cares about scrapbooking stuff on Christmas Eve anyway? But we're back full force, so settle into your chair, grab a warm cup of somethin', and follow along.
Today is New Year's Eve. I did a perfectly good New Year's Eve kit a coupla years ago. I still loved the colors and I didn't think I could pick any I'd like better. But, I thought the kit needed freshening. It's back with lots of new elements and about double the papers and 3 shiny alphas. It's got lots of sparkle and shine to reflect our hopefulness for the New Year.
Of course, you can buy the kit or just the elements, just the papers, or just the alphas. Everything is on sale 30% off at A Cherry on Top. Kit preview is linked to the store.
My two SnowFriends kits are as cute as they can be, but they're pretty much kid-oriented. I wanted to do something a little more slanted towards the grown ups for scrapping our cold-weather photos. Here's Sweater Weather, the new release for this week.
This kit is totally unique. I sat here for hours with my nose pressed up against the screen, converting cross stitch patterns I found online to patterns I could use for scrapbook papers and elements. It wasn't easy, but I think it was worth it! I LOVE this kit!
I don't have the patience to make alphas from scratch. I particularly don't have the patience to make alphas filled with lots of little cross-stitches. Shoot, I rarely have the patience (or time) to do alphas that come in individual .pngs. So, a special friend of mine created these alphas for me. You won't find them anywhere else! They're custom made for me (and you, of course!)!!!!!! And, yes, you can buy just the elements, just the papers, or just the alphas. But why would you want to? Buy the whole kit--you'll be glad you did. It's on sale at 30% off at A Cherry on Top right now. I've linked the kit to the store to make it easy for you.
And don't forget the stackers. We usually only do 4 sets of stacked papers but we got a little carried away with this fun kit and did 5 for the same price. They make scrapping so easy and give your pages that "professional" look!
One final note: I've never announced it or made a big to do about it. I've just quietly left my Christmas kits at introductory price throughout the whole season. So, if you still need (or want, LOL) a Christmas kit or two, grab them today or tomorrow or Monday. I'm putting them back to regular price Tuesday morning. I'll add the kit previews here and link 'em to the store for you. We have lots of extra goodies, stacked papers, clusters, word art, etc too and they too will be on sale til Tuesday. Just check the related products tab beneath the preview in the store and you'll see the other items we have available. And, if you like to see layouts done with kits before you buy them, click on the "media" tab below the previews.
I hope you see something you love! Have a great week and stay safe tonight!
Happy New Year :)
