It's official!!

Remember that EXCITING NEWS THAT I COULDN'T SHARE? lol Well I can finally reveal it. :) Of course..for those of you not in the Flathead Valley you'll probably be thinking...okay so what's the big deal?? ;) But we are super excited. Ben Franklin has offered to sponsor Kara and I...we will be able to use the empty room in the mall in Whitefish for our classes/crops every month!! We are stoked...and have so many ideas to get people excited...and have FUN and just have a nice, comfortable place to go to scrap. And..technology is great...within just a couple hours I was able to create a website..complete with paypal buttons. :) And if anyone wants a class kit that isn't in the area..you can still get one...it'll come complete with instructions and samples and shipping is free. :) (just using my instructor fee to pay your shipping...the products will all be retail value for you!!). Just have to take some sample photos and get those up but otherwise..it's done. I'm SO stoked!! You can check it out HERE.

And other good news...Shawn worked today!! And he'll work tomorrow and Thursday. WOOHOOO!! Not sure about Friday yet though. LOL

Oh and I wanted to share the Sweet Pea Scraps DT announcement...so here that is: GOOD LUCK to all those who give it a whirl!!

Kits will be shipped to you between the 10th and the 15th of each month and you will have approximately 2 weeks to complete these layouts. Layouts should be completed by the 1st of the following month. You will need to be able to scan and e-mail your layouts to sweetpea@sweetpeascraps.com so they can be loaded onto the design team gallery for the current month.

Unfortunately there is no monetary compensation for your designs, however please know that we respect that these are your original or scraplifted designs and have no intention of profiting from them in any other way than using them to showcase the products in our monthly kits.
We also ask that you participate in our blog challenges. We offer weekly challenges to our members and other scrappers. On average you will need to supply a challenge once a month.

How to Apply: Please email the following to:
sweetpea@sweetpeascraps.com

At this time due to the length of time it takes kits to arrive overseas, only entries from the US and Canada will be considered. Winners will be announced on the Sweet Pea Vine and contacted by e-mail on November 5, 2008. New members will begin their term of no longer than 12 months with the December kits which will ship mid November. Thanks!
