Very limited on this one, too - we only prepared a few of them - hope you like it!!! You can purchase by clicking at Holiday Glow Kit 
We've been really busy this summer and hope you like our efforts! I'll be releasing more photos of some of the new kits that we have on our site throughout the weekend as well as adding more information on our CHA Summer Sneak Peek post, so go back and check that, too! Our new kit for today is called "Words of Wisdom". It's using Junkitz school papers which were only released for a short time. I'm very, very limited on what I have in stock and cannot reproduce this after I'm out - it's available now at Words of Wisdom Kit - when it's gone, it's gone!
Congratulations to the winners of the All-star game last night (you know what I'm talking about if you love baseball). It's my second favorite sport to football. We have season tickets to the Minnesota Twins Spring Training games and get to see them play almost every game. One of our favorite players, Justin Morneau won the Home Run Derby Monday night and then had the lead off hit and winning run in the 15th inning last night to win the game. We get to see him do his magic here in Fort Myers and it was so cool watching him over the last couple days impress the rest of you!!! Way to go, Justin Morneau! The first pic is Justin on first base at a game March 17 and then the other is my kids all suited up in their green Twins gear.
Found this on another board - this is so cool. Thought you guys would enjoy seeing it! I don't know what the retail cost is, but it's definitely new age scrappin!

We have another addition to our page kit sections - it's our Holiday Magic Scrapbook Page Kit - this is a two page layout using lots of gorgeous red, green & cream plaid papers. We taught this in Buffalo at our Holiday Event and everyone loved it. Notice the flip journaling on the right page - it's four pages of journaling that you flip with paper clips & ribbons tied on them. It's available now on our website at Holiday Magic Scrapbook Page Kit 
It's that time again for the CHA Summer 2008 Sneak Peeks. We'll be to this post each day for you to look at - let me know what products you like the most! Fancy Pants Designs is releasing three new paper lines and lots of gorgeous embellishments to go along with it. These images are not the best - when I have better ones, I'll updated it! Their lines are Fall, Christmas and The Daily Grind!
One of my favorites is Pink Paislee Pop Fashion, but then again, I'm also drawn to brights and pinks. These look yummy!
The next one is the new papers from Teresa Collins - she has a Cooking line called Bon Appetit (one of my favorite magazines), Halloween line and Christmas line coming out. We'll be ordering all of them for our website. Love the cooking line! I'm just getting ready to make a family recipe book of all of our favorite recipes and will probably use this!
MLYB - My Little Yellow Bicycle - these products were made for independent stores only and are a hit on the shelves. I'm loving the Christmas line - there are three new lines for them - Sharon Ann Christmas, Halloween and Love Letters. These are just a few images of each of them.
Prima Marketing Sneak Peeks will be updated throughout the day. As usual, Prima is introducing a BOAT LOAD of great new products - papers, embellishments, flowers, say it in crystals and more! I just totally LOVE Prima - it's that romantic, floral, girly feeling I guess. Here are their new Christmas papers and embellishments. The last image is a layout that was done by Mara-May Baca for Prima for these products - it's gorgeous! This line is called Christmas Fancy:
More Prima Marketing - This is their new Halloween Line called Little Boo. The layout preview is done by Christine Middlecamp for Prima's booth at CHA. It's bright and vivacious and looks like it will be a LOT of fun to play with! Can't wait to see it in person!
Picklelicious Rusty Pickle! Love their new lines - especially the Chocolate Covered Cherries! If I know my buddy, Lance, he will be serving them at CHA just to keep people in the booth - at Winter he had this huge chocolate fountain - we went by a few times! If you haven't had the pleasure to meet Lance Anderson, the owner of Rusty Pickle, and you ever get the opportunity to do so, do it! He is a super good friend of mine and is a great guy! His classes are very well received around the world - he teaches in the US and overseas, so if you ever get the chance - take a class from him - he totally rocks! Here are the new lines that Rusty Pickle is releasing - Candy Land, Brass Knuckles, Costume Party, Chocolate Covered Cherries and White Christmas!
Basic Grey New Releases - There are five new releases from Basic Grey - the individual pieces can be seen on their website - they are Ambrosia, Eva, Granola, Offbeat and Urban Prairie - here are the collection pack photos - we'll have all of it on line as soon as it becomes available to us.
Updated Sunday, July 20 - here are a few more cool pictures that I found - there are lots of sneak peeks now at most of the manufacturer's websites and others on other boards. Just a few that I thought were really neat are the new Tim Holtz Christmas Grungeboard - man, will I have fun with this - love the new Grunge Books, too. I have to be honest (aren't I always...brutally so, sometimes) that I look at some of the manufacturer's and think - "what on earth are you thinking??" - I can't believe what some of the items that are "new" releases are - lots to me look like the same 'ole of three and four years ago. Maybe I just have seen so much that it look alike. Lots of it is stuff I love, though, and can't wait to see. I think that almost every manufacturer has brought out a Halloween, Fall and/or Christmas line, so there will be plenty to choose from for the winter holidays. I know Basic Grey's Christmas line isn't published yet, but if they stay true to form, they'll release one in September or October. Hope you guys all enjoyed these peeks - it will be my last update on this subject!!! 
These are new Kaisercraft items - stamps, rhinestones, embellishments & more!
We have another gorgeous kit in store for you - a Baseball Diamond Chipboard Album - this is seven pages (14 front & back) and features reds, blues, yellows - lots of great embellishments. This is perfect to highlight your favorite player's season or super for All-Star games. We have pre-cut most of the paper and added extra sheets to the kit in case you want to customize the mounting cards for the photos to different sizes than ours. It's one of my favorites since I spend so much time on the baseball field between the two boys playing Spring & Fall and us doing the Minnesota Twins Spring Training games. This is also perfect for those of you who love professional baseball and go to games as well! It's available under Scraptique Project Based Kits. Also, be sure to check out the Inspiration area on our website - it's where we'll post photos of layouts in our booth and projects & layouts from our fabulous Entourage Team!! It's available on our website at Baseball Chipboard Album Enjoy!
Hope everyone is loving the gorgeous summer weather! It's hot here, but I'm getting more used to it that I have before since I'm spending more time outside during the summer with the kids. Here's a new page kit called Water Boy that we have available that is perfect for those summer swimming days! It features a huge 11" high seahorse that's painted and glittered. It's available on our website at Water Boy Scrapbook Page Kit. Hope you like it!
