And now... onto the peeks for today! The sneaks for today and generally the fan favorite.... today we are showing off the single images! These stamps are sold as singles so you can get 1 or get them all. Versatility and mix and matching is something we really take pride in. This way you get what YOU want! And yea, the fact that we have 3 new awesomly cute fairies for you doesnt hurt either!

Below you'll find "peeks" of all the new images to be released. Be sure to click on the name of the Paper Makeup Artist who designed the card to see the full view.

And now... without further ado.....

Meet Kat... the pinwheel loving fairy!




And as we've been doing with a few images... Kat has her very own pinwheel (which will be sold separately) that you can either use with her, or for the inside of the card OR all by itself as a great focal image!


And also being released is a wordart image that you may recognize. No we didnt forget we used this quote before... it's the same only now MUCH larger! perfect for a card focal point OR for scrapbooking!!! The layout of the wordart is the same, but the much larger layout makes it super easy to ink up only sections at a time like maria did!




Here's a gossip girl for you, Chatty Cathy!



And for the huggers out there... here are the Hugging fairies



Oh wait... thats not all! We also have 2 new retro cutie critters to add to the mix!!!

Here's Bubbles the Duck


Now what I really wanted you to catch in this "peek" version of tangii's card is the adorable sentiment! The Best Wishes sentiment is this month's freebie with purchase!

And last but not least... Drummer the Bear!




Have a wonderful day everyone! Dont forget to go and leave everyone some love! You may just win all the stamp images you saw on this post today!

September Sneak Peeks Day 2 - When There's Nothing Left to Say

It's another day of sneak peeks!

Today we are peeking a new set called When There's Nothing Left to Say.
And this set was compiled by yours truly! I know... i did it all myself! (kinda proud of myself for that one! haha! It's been a minute since i completely design a set myself!)

This set was created for those "tricky" cards. Not just sympathy cards... but all the ones when you just dont know what to say, or are having a tough time finding the perfect sentiment.
This set is one you'll return to over and over again!

Since it is SO full, it was hard to make sure each sentiment was peeks today, so here's an overview of the whole thing...

And now... onto some fun eye candy from the Paper Makeup Artists!
Remember to click on the Name of the Paper Makeup Artist to be taken directly to their blogs to see the full view!













And our Guest Designer for the month, Alex Lundren


Would you like to win this set? Leave a comment here saying which sentiment is your favorite! It doesnt have to be one of the ones peeked on a card. You have until 9pm EST on September 7th to enter this contest. Winner will be drawn during the party and later posted on the blog!

A Sad Goodbye...

Yes we had some exciting news yesterday... but unfortunately we have some sad news as well.
One of our fabulous design team members, Sherry Campbell is needing to step away from the team for a bit. Sherry has gotten a new job (YEA!!!!!) but it's a LOT of work! She is going to focus on her job and family, and stamp when she can.

We will greatly miss Sherry and her talents but of course, respect that family and work comes first to our little hobby. We wish her the best of luck!

Here are some of Sherry's most recent creations...





Please go visit Sherry's Blog and give her lots of hugs and well wishes as this wasnt a decision she could come to lightly. Sherry just rocks! I will be giving away 1 stamp of your choice to someone who wishes sherry well. So you have to go and leave sherry come love on her blog. ;)
Leave the comment on her most recent blog post titles Sassy Weekend of Fun and Stamping!
A winner will be drawn with the rest of our winners this week during the Release Party and then will be posted to the blog in our winners post.

Time for your Thursday Showoff...

It's Friday-eve and you know what that means... another Thursday Showoff! Woot woot! Last weeks Challenge was brought to us by Danni, and she challenged us to make a Birthday Card. So many wonderful cards this week!! Thanks to everyone who played along with us!!
