Buy My Shop Sale and Brand New Spring Kit!

Hey Everyone!

April is my birthday month and what better than a birthday party to celebrate! I am going to go all out and put my shops on a Buy My Shop Sale. You can get all my products in my shops for only $15.00... that is more than 75% off. Besides that, I have a brand spanking new kit going into the shop as well. It is called "A Rabbits Tale" and it was inspired by the story of Peter Rabbit. It is a very whimsical kit that will be perfect for those Easter, Spring, and Gardening pictures... though it will be perfect for so many other layouts as well as you can see by the wonderful layouts created by some very talented ladies. After you have had a chance to check all this out, please don't pass up on your freebie from me and then head over to Jennifer's, of ScrapQuest, blog to pick up 2 free quick pages.

Closure of Pretty Scrappy

I have been wanting to address you all on the issues at Pretty Scrappy. First, I want to let you know that I had no knowledge or participation in any of the problems that led to the closure of Pretty Scrappy. Unfortunately I was never informed of the closure by the owner of the shop but rather by another Designer who also heard through the grapevine of the closure. Supposedly this all happened Friday night past and I was not informed until Sunday night past as I was on holiday in Florida. I regret how the closure happened and hope that you will not lump me into the same grouping as those involved in the piracy and ignorance leading to the closure. If for any reason you had purchased something from the shop before the closure and did not recieve it, please email me at apupplo@charter.net and I will get you taken care of as soon as possible. I will still be designing at Faith Sisters and Kjoi Studios so you will still be able to obtain my designs if you so wish.

If you are still curious as to the problems the lead to the demise of the shop, you can read the follwoing post - Sweet Shoppe Community Boards

Again my apologies and sadness for this closure, piracy, and ignorance.


Have a blessed day!

New In the Shop

Hi there everyone!

I have been very busy getting ready to go on vacation with my 3 boys alone so I haven't done much designing but do have a new release for you as well as some freebies that a wonderful new scrapper has done for you from my kit "Spring Awakenings". My new release is a set of word arts perfect for those gardening layouts - it is a group of 4 word arts/quotes for the gardener or just those layouts that have a theme to match the inspiration. I have to be short as I still have a lot to do but wanted you to have something before I left... FYI the new word art is presently only available at Faith Sisters as I did not get the time to add to my other shops.


My Spring Awakenings kit which Azabita has so wonderfully highlighted below with her quick pages and cards is available as a mega kit, boys kit, girls kit, invitations and many other quick page and brag book pages albums.... so check them out!

You can pick up all these gorgeous freebies HERE

Faith Sisters Sweet Sweet Song Challenge, Kit and Freebies

Hi Everyone....

Are you ready for another challenge yet? Well either way here it comes... its called the Sweet Sweet Song Challenge over at Faith Sisters. Below you will get an understanding of what the challenge it and a couple freebies that you can pick up. My kit below is on sale for 50% off right now.... enjoy!

Praising God is an act of humility and devotion. When we praise and worship God, we turn our focus from ourselves and place it on God. This act brings us into closer fellowship with the Lord and allows us to express our faith. We lift our hands and shout words of thanksgiving and adoration. We play music, sing and dance.

I will extol the LORD at all times; his praise will always be on my lips. -Psalms 34:1

Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. -Eph. 5:19-20

Through Jesus, therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise—the fruit of lips that confess his name. -Hebrews 13:15

What do you praise God for? What songs express pure praise to you? God is worthy of our praise and worship at all times. Sometimes we are so caught up in our circumstances that we find it hard to praise God. At those times the right song can remind us that God is in control and he is an awesome God!

And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who him, who have been called according to his purpose. -Romans 8:28

I hope you will join us this month in creating a layout inspired by your favorite songs. Below are a few songs I thought fit this topic, but feel free to share any song that you feel drawn too.

Indescribable- Chris Tomlin
Our Love is Loud- David Crowder
Shout to the Lord - several versions
Open Skies- David Crowder
Praise You in the Storm- Casting Crowns

Each month the designers are invited to create coordinated digital kits inspired by the topic to help you complete your layouts. This month's kits are based on the swatch below. You do not have to use these kits to participate, but I challenge you to create your layouts using these colors. Paper scrappers are welcome to join us by using similar colored products.

If you need some help getting started you can grab this quick page and photo mask for free over the weekend!

Freebies

After you finish your layout be sure to share it with us in the My Sweet, Sweet Song Gallery and the monthly thread in the forum. Everyone who participates this month will be entered in a drawing to win my kit for next month's challenge! I look forward to seeing all of your layouts and finding out what songs you chose.
