Note: I hate to say it, but due to unforeseen delays with suppliers of some kit components, these kits will not ship until early next week.

The store has been set to accept orders even though technically they are not completely in stock. Thank you for your patience and understanding. 

We are also allowing backorders on the stamps in the event we run short, and expect to have supplies restocked within one week. Please order early to ensure you get yours first!

We now return to our regular programming. lol

So what, might you ask, are today's prize offerings? How about:
  1. Butterfly Kisses stamp set (being showcased today)!!!
  2. Lush 2 Turquoise Prize Package from My Mind's Eye!!! Includes one each of the patterned and flocked papers shown, plus all the accessories!!! Thanks again Nick!!!
  3. Sarah's Butterfly Kisses Card Kit!!!

Once again, the prizes will be awarded based on random drawing from the comments left on THREE of the Team blogs listed below! You won't know whose blog has the prize... neither do I, actually, until I draw from a hat...so you'll want to leave a comment on each blog for more chances to win. But please play fair... only ONE comment per blog!

You have until 11:00 pm Pacific tonight (May 1st) to make the rounds! The winners will be announced here tomorrow. 

But that's not all!!! One lucky person drawn from all comments made on this blog by 11:59 pm Pacific on Tuesday, May 3rd will win the entire May 1st Release!!! Yep, that's the four stamp sets and two card kits. Yowsers!!! 


For my card I chose to stamp the butterfly fairy and butterfly image on a kraft die cut butterfly in a light brown ink, and then randomly stamped the greeting in black.  The patterned paper is by Websters Pages mounted on kraft cardstock. I created the butterflies feelers with Zva pearls, and then added a bit of zig zag stitching to the corners. Very simple! This little stamp set makes a BIG impression, don't you think?

So off you go! Enjoy your first looks at Butterfly Kisses!!! All the blog links are provided below in case there's a break along the way. Since today is a blog hop, we're not showing peeks here... you will see them all by starting with Nina's blog and then linking along from there. 

I'll also be back tomorrow with the winners selected from those who Like our Facebook Page!

Enjoy the hop. And good luck!



P.S. If you're a winner and you've already purchased the stamps or kits you won, I will refund your money or send you a second set, whichever you prefer. Oh, and when you leave a comment today, please let us know what themes/types of stamps and/or kits you'd like to see from us in the future! Thanks!

A Little Peek...

...at the first of four stamp sets designed by the fabulous Nina Brackett for The Craft's Meow. This one is simply delightful! And trust me... there is so much more to this gorgeous stamp set...you will love it!
I happen to think this set coordinates really well with the Hazel and Gertie patterned paper from the Stella & Rose collection by My Mind's Eye, so you'll also see Hazel and Gertie 6 x 6 pads and coordinating bits and bobs appear in the store on May 1st. ;)


See you tomorrow for another peek!
