Playing With Paper give-away

To celebrate the release of my book, I'm going to give away a copy to one lucky blog reader (along with an assortment of scrappy product). To enter, just reply to this post (one entry per person)! I'll draw the winner's name on Monday, March 9th (2 weeks).

If you've seen the book, I'd love to know where and what you think about it! If you are looking for a copy online, Amazon.com is a great place to shop!

Kick It Up last peek

My second book, Kick It Up, with Greta Hammond co-authoring, is FINISHED. I have one last edit to do before it goes to print, and I wanted to share some little peeks of the last batch that went out the door last month.

Playing With Paper is available now at your favorite online retailer (Amazon, Target, Memory Makers), or in stores (although I've not spotted it on a bookshelf yet). I hope you'll check it out!

Catch up and Kit

Oh, boy, I didn't realize it had been almost a month since an update. Our weather has been up and down here, and we've been fighting off one sickness after another. I'm enjoying a cold, but sunny day here in Mississippi. As I prepare for a huge Scrapbook Blowout Sale (sooo many goodies that somebody needs to use, instead of it sitting here in boxes), I'm pulling out all sorts of stuff. I found this kit that I had stuck back to teach, and the right opportunity never presented itself. I taught it once before at a retreat and loved the versatility of it. I decided to give it a "girly" cover option by adding ribbons, 3-d glittered flowers, and some green paper for POP. I added some photos to show how easy it is to customize for your own themes - family, pets, back to school, pumpkin patch, fall, petting zoo, boys, friends, etc.

It is a kit packed with stuff -
8.5 X 5.5 SEI Preservation Album with 10 protectors included
American Crafts white chipboard thickers
7 Gypsies Fortunes rubons (love, love these numbers!)
Lots of papers and all the little buttons, circles, metal rim tag, brown paper clip, mini brads, and ring die cuts you see in the photos.
Color copy of project, and full instructions.

Only things not included in the kit are the 2 big stamps (Play and Smile). Any large alpha stamp will work, or you might even have these Heidi Swapp stamps in your stash.

Blowout Pricing - $22 plus shipping. Buy 2 or more (give the kit as a gift, or make one for a loved one), and they are $20 each plus shipping.

I also have a couple of Boo Albums left at $25 - look for info on an earlier blog post.

Hope you enjoy what is left of February! I've heard from several of you that Amazon is shipping your copies of my book :D Can't wait to hear your opinions and thoughts on it.
