Finally. . .

I tell you, I really DO want to be more than a once-a-week blogger. I think once school starts again (August 1st for us) things will get a little more routine around here. We have been playing alot!!

First of all, I wanted to mention that I put a few more July Project Kits (butterfly box) up for sale just now. We had several duplicate memberships that we have been working to clean up this week and that left us with these leftover Project Kits.

So finally, here are some previews of new product for the summer! The August kit is being built around these papers (my new "Varsity" line)!!

I have new Stickers, sheets and rolls, Die Cut Alpha Blocks, Journaling Cards and Rub-Ons - all new and all coming in the August kit.

I also have an additional line of paper that we will be using in the Project Kit next month. I have always had this thing about finding a pattern I loved and wanting it in 10 colors, you know? I noticed Martha Stewart is doing that with several of her designs. You can buy them in a set of one pattern, but 6 colors. So. . .I decided to start a "Basics" line (not the official name) and am starting with this great Soda Label pattern!! It comes in 6 colors - all of which coordinate with other JBS collections so you can mix and match. Here is a sample of the Kelly Green paper that matches the Varsity line:

And last but not least, here is a little peek at the new Bingo Cards. They are 5 x7 and are printed on a lightweight matboard. Thin enough for your scrapbook pages, but strong enough to stand alone for altered projects. In fact, we are making a house out of them for next month's Project Kit - my most ambitious project yet! I also had every number from 1- 24 included so you could easily find kid's birthdays, anniversary's etc.

I have busy trying to finish some projects in my house and studio - I will post some photos soon!!
