September at Scraps N Pieces


Summer is ending.  School is starting.  Everyone is settling into familiar routines - back packs, lunches, and fall sports like baseball and football.  If you need an escape, or find that with the kids in school you have a little free time available (what's that?), check out what the designers at Scraps N' Pieces have planned for you in September.


It happens eventually.  The big milestone birthdays are celebrated, through humor and gag gifts, and then the number somehow stops increasing.  Let's be 29 or 39 or 49 forever!  For all those "over the hill" birthday celebrations, grab Old As Dirt.  The bright palette will bring the life back into any party layout!



Grab the kit for just $7.99, the quick pages for $5.99, or go big with the bundle for $10.99.


The September Bits N' Pieces focuses on "My Guy" - all things that make us love our little guys (and even the big guys too).  These great colors definitely capture the masculine touch in these awesome products.

  Remember all pieces are just $1 the first week of the month!  After the first week, the designers may combine their products into a full-size kit and all will be at regular price, so don't wait.  Also, the first weekly challenge each month is dedicated to the month's Bits N' Pieces products.  Use them in a layout, post it and link to gallery, and earn some points.  It's a win win!!




With school back in session, back to school kits are a big hit.  Want to grab some great notebook commercial-use elements for your next release?!?  Grab Off the Grid and you'll get a super cool combination of notebook paper, envelopes, sticky notes, and ledger paper.  Don't miss out!  It's on sale the first week of release at 35% off!



 

Labor Day, the first Monday in September, is an annual national tribute to the contributions

workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of the United States.  It also means lots of stuff will be on sale!  Celebrate Labor Day by kicking your feet up, buying some awesome stuff, and scrappin' away!  The entire store will be 30% off through Monday, September 2.






 


Be sure to add the following speed scraps to your calendar, and join us in the forum and chat for a lot of fun.

Awesome August

Can you believe we're already in month 8 for the year? It seems way too fast. I was actually quite surprised how fast the summer flew by. Without my oldest at MDO, I thought for sure I would be worn out and pulling my hair out by the end of summer. Surprisingly, I'm not. Although six weeks of daily swim lessons, Monday through Thursday have probably helped.
Anyway, you're not here to listen to me chat. You're here to see the latest installment in Queen Wild Scraps P52 series, Awesome August. And it is awesome, like totally dude. :-) There's elements to help you document your summer vacation, to document the first day back to school, and a wide variety of generic elements to document the everyday moments.

You can pick it up for just $3.00 through August 29th. That's a savings of 50%.
Now onto the inspiration. The Wild Princesses have busy putting together some awesome layouts to show you.
Beth's layouts really show the versatility of Awesome August. From wine tasting to smiles, this kit does it all.

Henriett has two layouts that really showcase the different colors in the kit. Her first kit really highlights the blues which match so well with her son's shirt. The second is more muted with gray as the primary color, which just makes the photos pop.

Kandice also used a Something Simple Template. That chevron paper really compliments her son's plaid shirt.

Kristal has a fun layout about school.
