Paper Blocks 52 Collab with Little Green Frog Designs

Andrea and I are kicking off Funky Playground’s 2012 Project 52 with this awesome set of templates, which you can pick up for 50% off with code HALFOFF now through Dec 31st.  Then be sure to visit the FPD forums in January for weekly P52 challenges and mini kits from the designers!

These templates can be used for other projects as well – scrap about each week of your pregnancy, weight loss journey, or even each week of your child’s school year! The possibilities are endless!

And be sure to check out the coordinating Paper Blocks 365 Collaboration with Little Green Frog Designs and my Paper Blocks {Months} Collection! The month templates would be perfect as “title” pages or dividers for each monthly section of your Project 365 album. And the words and their “slots” in all three of these template sets are sized exactly the same so they are perfectly interchangeable. Pick up a second set and expand your layout options!

Here’s an example from Andrea’s CTM Laura using one of the Paper Blocks 52 templates with a day number from the Paper Bocks 365 set:

And here’s one from Andrea’s CTM, Roxanna where she’s inserted her own title into the space on the template.  The possibilities for these really are endless!

And here’s one from FPD CT Shauna using it with one of the included week numbers:

Paper Blocks 365 Collab with Little Green Frog Designs

Speaking of our Paper Blocks 365 collab, today is the last day of our grab bag price of $6 – starting tomorrow the price will be raised to $20 (which is still 50% off the ‘valued at’ price of $40 and a great bargain!)

Here’s the full reveal:

Me: A to Z

The mini from the last prompt is now available for purchase in my store for just $1.50:

And the next prompt has been posted – due to the holidays, there will be no new prompt on Jan 1st – so you have a whole month to complete this prompt and/or catch up with us!  Visit the forum to get a 50% off coupon for the current letter template as well – it is available in both 12×12 and A4 sizes!

Happy Holidays!

As you may have noticed, I have not been able to keep both my blog and my newsletter up-to-date, so I’ve decided that starting in January I will be focusing just on the newsletter.   So, if you are currently getting your information about new releases, sales, etc here (via my blog either through rss or email), then you’ll want to be certain to sign up for my newsletter.  Lots of exciting news coming up in January, by the way!

So to catch my blog readers up here’s what’s been going on in December:

New this month is Emma Loves Christmas – available as a collection (at a discounted price) or available as individual products ($3 each)

Layouts and Projects from the Creative Team

And it’s everyone’s favorite weekend!  Our quarterly Lost and Found Sale.  The products that I have included will be RETIRING after the sale is over.  So grab them by the end of the day on Monday at just $2 each, because after that they will be GONE!

The From Boy to Man collab with Captivated Visions is not in her Scrap Orchard Store, so if you want this collab you will need to grab it now.  And this is also your last chance to get the Mademoiselle collab with Lil’ Digi Bits by Jude, as she retired from designing earlier this year.  Great bargains to be had!!!
