aloha

hello and good day my loyal readers! (ok, so its my sister)

It was a beautiful day here in kamloops, went and did some family photos for lances aunt and uncle. Turned out pretty good.. I'm no Tara Whitney/Elsie but you know... I try.

Posted the call on pub calls for designers for October and they're flooding in.. seems to be a popular idea!

Starting to get in the rest of the supplies for Septembers kit which makes me pretty excited. Placing order for the next few months, which means lots of planning ahead. All those pictures everywhere of CHA made me sad.. I thought Ty was too young for me to leave just yet (18 months) so I'm not going until winter CHA. Which isn't that far away! plus.. Lance and I are headed to Vegas in October for our 5 year, I go to Seattle for CKC and we're planning a trip to Mexico with our best friends for next summer (much cheaper flights) Finally starting to travel!

Anyways, I have submissions to go through.. loving ALL the ideas, people are sending in 2 or 3 sometimes too. The hardest part is when I love LOVE a kit, and I know I just couldn't get the supplies in time. The CHA stuff that was just released, some doesn't even start shipping in the US until October.. which means we won't get it until November, sometimes later. So If your kit doesn't get chosen, it might just be because it was too new!

So, looking forward to the new scenic route, ki memories lace paper, heidi swapp floral bling centers, and so many other things! I can feel my pockets empty just thinking about it!


Enough rambling! get those kits in and keep reading my once-a-week-or-sometimes-two-weeks blog!

coffee keeps me alive..

Ok probably a slight exaggeration because in fact, I don't really even LIKE coffee... I'm a "tea granny" as Lance likes to say. Even in 42 degree weather ( like.. 100+ to you Fahrenheit people) I still drink tea. With lots of milk and sugar.

Not that you care really, I just though I'd let you know. We have all the designers for September as I'm pretty sure I wrote before, one had to step back though for a month and so I got to do a kit. Which I wasn't going to but... :) It's called "My Favorite Things" (brilliant title, I know) and it doesn't really match so much as I just love everything in it.

There will be sneak peeks on here within the next few weeks and I receive deliveries ( like Christmas, but better because its all for me, sorta)

Its all getting very exciting. As is the fact that we're now looking for October designers! By August 1st or thereabouts just send in your idea for a kit (pre-designed products) and we'll pick 10 of the coolest.

Send to freshpages.kit@gmail.com and get as detailed as ya can. Come up with a name, a theme, a description, a song and dance routine, anything to stand out. And don't get all sad if you don't get chosen, we need 10 designers EVERY month, and your bound to get picked sooner or later. No limits on the number of kits, but try to keep it to a few a month.

EEK, can't wait to see what you come up with.

ciao bella(s) !

EXCITEMENT

So first off, let me apologize for my horrendous spelling... it really shouldn't be that bad with the advent of spell check but.. "it is what it is".

Next, I have been getting kit submissions from all around the world! How very, very exciting! The site is being worked on and will be up for September. I only had to sell my left arm for it! (joking,and two very cool guys from netshift media, and the pulse group are working on it for me!)

We have almost all the designers we need for September. But keep in mind, we also need 10 for October, and for November, and December.. etc etc.. I'm so very excited. The kits rock. Really, Really Rock! Like if I wasn't buying them all already, Id buy them!

So I'm off to get some work done... email me if you have any questions about anything at fresh.pages@gmail.com.

Peace!
