It's finally here!

After not so patiently waiting, it is here. Finally. And I couldn't be more excited.

I am in love with the nontraditional colors that Kelly chose for this kits. And hello? Deer, gold foil alphas, ELF inspired stamps. I'm practically giddy. There's items from Tim Holtz, Basic Grey, Allison Kreft and of course, Kelly Purkey. 

I was waiting to see if this kit would include an album like Ali had in her December Daily kit, but alas, it did not. No worries though! I found an 8 x 8 We R Memory Keepers album in... wait for it... aqua. Totally nontraditional, I know. But how sweet is that gonna look with the kit? It comes with 10 divided page protectors. Still trying to decide if I want to house everything in those or do a combo of page protectors and pages/tid bits just hole punched and added to the album. We'll see. Now the wait begins for the kit to arrive at my house. 

The full list includes:

• 1 Jolly 4" x 6" stamp set designed by Kelly, which is exclusive to this year's kit.
• 1 sheet each of red, teal and white Kelly Purkey alpha stickers
• 1 sheet each of Kelly Purkey's Tis The Season and This is Magic stickers
• 1 sheet of Tim Holtz Idea-ology number rub-ons
• 4 flair badges designed by Kelly
• 1 roll of Kelly Purkey diamonds washi tape
• 1 roll Kelly Purkey gold glitter tape
• 4 Simon Says Stamp foil cut out snowflakes
• 1 Kelly Purkey foil cut out reindeer
• 2 Allison Kreft star paperclips
• 2 gold heart paperclips
• 2 cork hearts and 2 cork stars by Fancy Pants
• 24 sheets of 6.5" x 9.5" of "Capture" designer papers from BasicGrey
• Assortment of Freckled Fawn wood veneers (approximately 12)
• Alpha stickers in gold foil from Chic Tags
• 1 Kelly Purkey "Stacked Deck" in 3" x 4" cards (25 Kelly Purkey designs, 2 Allison Kreft overlays, 2 Kelly Purkey overlays and 2 Kelly Purkey letterpress cards)
• 3 holiday themed wax seals from BasicGrey
• 1 sheet of gold and silver candy buttons by BasicGrey
• 1 pack of Attach Me stickers from BasicGrey

You can find Kelly's here and the aqua album here.

Mid Week Round Up

I just couldn't help myself. I did it again. After canceling my PL subscription back in August, I signed back up a few days ago after getting an email from Studio Calico. What did it say, you ask? Um, a free add on + free shipping if I signed up again. Hello? Hell yes I'm gonna sign back up! Screw saving that extra money each month. This girl is gonna scrap.

Luckily for me, their distribution site is one UPS day away so I received my package today. I'll admit, this month's kit was kinda 'meh' for me but I love the gold alpha stickers from Dear Lizzy. And I'm crazy about the add on kit. So it all works out in the end. *photos snagged from Studio Calico*

I put my preorder in for Kelly Purkey's December Daily kit. This is just a sneak. The full reveal will be later this month, with the kits shipping mid November. I literally cannot wait to get my hands on this kit. I've got quite a few events planned for December and I'm looking forward to documenting them. The kits are still available for preorder over at Simon Says Stamp. 

I will also be having a moving sale soon. I've got a whole studio worth of stuff that needs to get whittled down to half of a spare bedroom. Depressing, I know. I'm working through it with Spiced Apple Pie Ciders and Masterpiece Theater. In all there will be 6 flat rate Priority mail boxes filled with cardstock, paper, embellishments, stamps, stickers, albums and a whole bunch of other stuff. I'll be posting photos of each box once I get everything sorted. You can find 7Gypsies, American Crafts, K & Company, Jolee's, PL cards and more. So keep your eyes out! They should be posted this weekend.
