Back in Action!

Hello everyone! PMS is fully back in running order! For those that missed the newsletter that went out last week, Katie (that'd be me) was on vacation! Well, sort of! It was a busy time that I tried my best to stay on top of all emails and any questions people had. Well, i'm back in town, have begun processing all orders that were placed while I was gone. If you sent an email that went unanswered, it may have just been missed. Please send it again.

If you placed an order prior to June 1st and have not received it, feel free to email. Our trip included 4 10 hour long drives, with a few 1-2 hour drives in between, but things were bound to be missed. We truly appreciate your patience during this time.

Stay tuned this week to the blog for reviews of our recent release! Winners of the release party challenges will be announced shortly!

Blog hop

It's the 7th!  That means it's release day and we'd like to welcome you to the beginning of our hop!

Now, as MANY of you probably know, blogger was having some serious issues last night!  Some of our design team members were having issues getting their hop posts scheduled.  If you find any hiccups in the hop, bear with us while we get everyone updated.  :D

Ok... so onto the fun!  For those new to PMS, every 7th we have a new release!  We start the day off with a blog hop to show you samples of the goodies!  Then tonight at 8pm CST, the stamps go live on the site and we have a little chit chat party to celebrate!  We always give away freebies and such at our party, so we'd love for you to stop in!  Dont forget our release challenges too!  We gave those out earlier in the week!  Special prizes in store for those who can get them done before the release party so they can show them off to our other party guests!

Now we also have a special little award for those who go thru the whole hop.... you can collect letters from each blog to get a phrase.  That phrase will give you a discount of 15% off any stamps from the new release!  No minimum qty order!  Just a discount!  WOOHOO!  This month the PMS blog even has a letter for you, thats how excited we are!  Your first letter is.... S!

Now hop along Tina's blog for some major inspiration!!!
