true patriot love , new by true north scraps

July 1st is Canada's birthday and we want to celebrate it!  We love Canada and we love our kit,

True Patriot Love!



This is a gigantic collaboration that was contributed to by the four Canadian designers at Scraps N Pieces:  Marie H Designs, Mommy Made This, Queen Wild Scraps, and True North Scraps.  This is probably one of the best collabs I have ever seen in my life!

Wait?  Are you saying you aren't Canadian, so why should you be interested?  Be interested my friend.  You still need this kit!  We used colours appropriate for other nationalities to show their pride as well.  We have even included some stars to match the American flag.  And what about that vacation you took to Canada last summer?  Or your trip to Epcot's Canada Pavilion in Walt Disney World?  We have you covered!

When you see what our Creative Teams have done with this kit, most of whom are not Canadian, you will agree that no matter what your nationality is ... you need this kit!

What's included that is so amazing, you are wondering?  WELL!

90 absolutely fabulous elements
36 beautiful patterned papers
7 very rich cardstocks
7 glitter papers
2, yes 2! full unique alphas
a full 4 pack of templates in .png, .psd, .tiff, .page and .pack formats
6 great journaling cards
a fantastic map of Canada and all the provinces and territories
patriotic word arts
beautiful clusters

Whew!  Told ya it was big!

Despite it's enormous size, we have kept it very affordable.  Can you believe you get all that for only $9.99?!! On top of that already amazingly low price, we have discounted it further for its first week in stores, by an additional 30%!  Where are you going to find a bargain like this again?  

I would like to show off the LOs I made using True Patriot Love:

Happy scrapping!

its a boy thing!, a new release from simple girl scraps

Good morning and happy Canada Day to my fellow Canadians! The weather hasn't been great here this weekend, so I think our town's fireworks will probably be cancelled, but I may still get out and about for some Canada Day birthday cake and maybe the craft shows and concerts!

Before I forget, I want to remind you about the Bake Sale happening July 1-5th, where 3 of my kits will be only $1 each!

It's the first of the month and that means it's time for the GingerScraps Buffet! This month, the theme was "Designers Choice" and I decided to go with a boy kit! I'm usually so girly with my color choices and themes, but my CT has been begging for a boy kit - and I had fun creating it!

You know what? It'll also work for a little "red white and blue" themed layouts as well!

Pretty petals from Ponytails Designs

Happy Canada Day!
Ponytails Designs has a lovely new release today for the July Build-a-Kit at STS. This month each piece will be only $1 for the first week! That's a great deal! The theme this month is "My Favorite Things" and Natasha chose to create a kit about one of her favorite pastimes (other than scrapping!) which is working in her garden. Who doesn't love the profusion of blooms in early summer? Pretty Petals captures the soft, dreamy colours and whimiscal feel of the garden at this time of year.
