SHNOOKUMS!

It's here!!! The moment we've all been waiting for....


Introducing "Shnookums"! We are SOOOO excited about releasing this kit! We only hope that you have as much fun playing and designing with it as we have! Here are just a few projects we (and our CT girls) have done!

Photo Tiles by Brooke

5x7 picture to frame by Leslie

Tumbler Instert (coming soon!) by Katie
We've also added a cute Mini Album done with the "Shnookums" kit!

There are so many ways to make these little albums a keepsake that will be cherished for a long time to come! Board books are always a favorite, they can be purchased at http://www.barebooks.com/ (a $20 minimum purchase is required) or at http://www.peppermintcreative.com/. Both places have 5x5 and 8x8 sizes available. If you're looking for a less expensive (yet still cute!) way to finish it off, you can purchase some white paper sacks, fold them in half and glue a page to each side and bind it with some fun ribbons! That's what we're doing this time around!!!! We'll post pictures when the project is complete!
And last but not least...don't forget to go and pick up these new little treasures while they're on sale for a limited time only! Lots more exciting "stuff" to come (we can't seem to quit!)


Happy Scrapping!

CUTE project!!!

Just thought I'd share the cute job chart I made for my little boy! One of our CT girls (Brooke) made them for her kids and was kind enough to create a template and share it with everyone on her blog!!! You can pick it up here. Anyway, here is my finished product and he is SO excited! The size is 12x18 and I'm going to have it printed at Costco and laminated, that way he can use a dry erase marker to mark off each day he completes one of his jobs!

Almost everything is from various kits from Peppermint Creative. The stitching is from our "Pumpkin Patch" kit and the frames are coming next month!!!!

Also, if you want your handwriting made into a font, we need to have it no later than the 20th. We've got some fun ones and can't wait to share them with you!!!!

Until next time, Happy Scrapping!

Font Creation Info.

We promised information about our new set of fonts!!! We are so excited to get some more variety in our font selection. SO...here's what you need to know if you would like your handwriting made into a font. Get a piece of notebook paper and using a bold tipped marker, write the alphabet, numbers, and the punctuation you would like. It can be as little or as much punctuation as you'd like. We've made a sample so you can see how big your letters need to be. In order to make a good font, your lowercase letters need to be AT LEAST one line tall, capitals need to be at least 2 lines tall, numbers should be two lines tall as well.
Once you have written your alphabet, you will need to scan it in and e-mail it to us. Make sure you are scanning at 300dpi. Send it to us as an attachment along with what you would like your font to be called... "GG _______".

We haven't done any cursive fonts before, it's something that we'd like to play around with but can't guarantee we can do it!!!! If your handwriting is cursive, feel free to send it in and we will try our best to make it work!

These fonts will be free of charge with the understanding that they can be put on our website for others to download and use for personal, non-commercial use.

Well, there it is! We are so excited to get started! If you have any questions, PLEASE feel free to e-mail us! We look forward to getting LOTS and LOTS of fonts!!!!!


Happy Scrapping!
