What a wonderful way to start a Monday, by sharing with all of you my newest sponsor which happens to be a great scrapbooking kit company.
Paisleys and Polka Dots is a non-subscription monthly kit club that is a little different from the rest. Maybe you find yourself in need of some inspiration, you are too busy and need something quick and easy, or you just can’t figure out those cutting instructions from a pre-designed kit. Paisleys and Polka Dots’ kits take the guess work out of designing, so they are perfect for beginners, but also detailed enough for the seasoned scrapper to appreciate. All kits are pre-cut and packaged by page, so there is no more guessing what goes where. Their kits are also perfect for crops; grab a few of your tools and supplies and you are good to go. New kits are released at the beginning of each month and there is no subscription to join, so you choose only the kits you like. You can visit them at www.paisleysandpolkadots.com and on their blog.
And to make this Monday morning even better, Paisleys and Polka Dots is offering not one, but TWO giveaways to my blog readers!
Giveaway #1: “Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow” mini-album kit
This is a great book for all types of photos and it's also perfect for vintage or heritage photos. It's created with Crate Paper's latest collection called, Restoration and includes a full set of 12 x 12 chipboard elements and a full phrase sticker sheet. Plus you will have plenty of trims, ribbons, and extras. The book has 5 chipboard pages (10 pages front and back) and also includes an extra teacup page for journaling or a small photo. The overall dimensions are 5 1/2 x 8 1/2.
Giveaway #2: “Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow” 2-page layout
This 2 page layout using Crate Paper’s latest collection, Restoration, is perfect for everyday, heritage, and vintage photos. The phase on the layout says, “As long as we have memories, yesterday remains. As long as we have hope, tomorrow awaits. As long as we have love, today is beautiful.” This kit comes pre cut, ready to assemble, and includes color images with step by step instructions.
