Scraps! I bet you thought I was going to be posting about something scandalous. *grin* Sadly, no.

Before I get down to biznatch, an announcement:
I had wondered why our previous demand for punchinella petered out. Seems that the listing disappeared from our ArtFire shop. No idea how that happened. Anyway, punchinella (or sequin waste, as it’s sometimes known) is again available!

We still have six spots for our circle journal group. If we don’t get six more people, we’ll go forward with those we have and just have smaller journals when they come back in less time.
I am working on a couple of simple but brilliant new variety packs that will be [...]

I hope it’s okay with Yumiko that I post this – there is kind of a language barrier. I think this layout rocks! It was made using our Acme Kit (lot 2) and the White Color Kit. Lawdy, lawdy, lawdy. Just love it.
Yasu has been our go-between for our Japanese customers. [...]

Of course it looks much better IRL (isn’t it always the truth?), and getting it was the highlight of my week (a very tough one at that). I find Nicole so inspirational. Not only is she a great artist [...]
