scenic route

So thank you so much to everyone for helping me out!! I had such a good response that I decided to reward 5 people with a free kit for our first month, which is hopefully August! I'll email them all, and then post their names here as it gets a little closer. I'll also post a request for kit ideas/submissions and then choose 10 for the first month. EVERY month 10 more people will be chosen to design a kit!!

Here's a quick overview of what we here at Fresh Pages Co. will do:

People (Anyone!) submit kit ideas anything from Baby Boy to Bohemian Rhapsody.. and give us an idea of what they would want in that kit.. as specific as " My Minds Eye, Wild Asparagus PP in Sister" or as random as "cute and quirky blues and green, with some overlays from Hambly and definitely rub-ons!"

We then choose 10 of the ones we like best, that we haven't done before, and work with the designers to develop the kit.. adding some of this and some of that. They choose the price range they want it to stay in, the items they NEED to have, the size (could just be paper!) etc... we buy it all, put them all together, put them on freshpagesco.com (not up yet) and offer them for sale.

The designer gets a package with more detailed instructions, a contract that says whats going on, business cards they can personalize to hand out to their friends and scrapping buddies, a space on the site for a pic and bio and link to resumes, or blogs or galleries.

In return for designing the kit, they get to choose from:

$50.00
$100.00 in supplies
free kit and 10% of the profits (up to $50.00)
or 2 free kits (theirs and one other from that month)

Every month is 10 diferent kits, from 10 different designers. Occasionally there will be "celebrities" doing the kits, but mostly just regular scrappers who want to have some fun, get their name out there and make some money!

I know some of you are interested, and that some of you are wondering what the catch is, but there really isn't one. Your credited with your design, we do most of the work, you get free stuff or money, and get to tell everyone you designed a kit and they can buy it :)

So that's what we do.. or will be doing. I'm working as fast as I can to get the site up.. I'll let everyone know what its up, and will be taking questions at:

freshpages.kit@gmail.com
or brianne_sheppard@hotmail.com

So thank you to everyone, the winners will be contacted by email and then posted on here.
