Hi, and welcome to your full Whimsy preview! We are excited to ship this little box of joy to your doorstep. (And some of you, well, your box of joy isn't so little.) We are beyond grateful for your continued loyalty and membership through the years!
In case you missed it, watch our box opening on Facebook, or if you prefer, view on YouTube.
We jazzed things up this month with a vibrant palette of bright colors. Plus, you'll love the versatility of the gorgeous duplex paper - two vivid colors on a single sheet.
A Note from Tricia
We've been planning this one for a long time: the Photo Twistabout Workshop. The project will have your head spinning with tons of ideas, and it's just in time for gift giving season. If you're interested in joining us on November 18, be sure to pick up your Craftalong Kit or components, and complete your homework preparations ahead of time. (If your schedule doesn't allow, no problem. The homework video and complete workshop will be available anytime after that date.) The event will be held on the VOLUME Facebook group. Watch for the official time to be announced soon.
Next Thursday, our team leaves for two consecutive four day weekends at scrapbooking camp in Northern Wisconsin. If you have a last-minute desire to join us, check your calendar for November 17-20. You're welcome to join us for the second weekend at Silver Birch Ranch!
What's Ahead?
Very delicate and light. This is the definition of "Gossamer" -- the theme name for our beautiful December collection. Curious? Learn everything about the stunning kit during our unboxing video planned for Monday, November 28. We've located a pair of stunning metallic papers to enhance the beauty of the kit. It's sure to brighten your day!
Fonts and Inks
This month's font combination is the perfect pairing of whimsical and fun. Our selections include "Melly Script" and "Wizard." If you like to have matching stamping inks on hand, I suggest the following CS® pads: Fuchsia, Tangerine, Leaf and Lagoon.
Whimsy Page Kit
Here's a quick preview video for you . . .
You'll be delighted by the sentiments and coordinating embellishments designed to complement the Whimsy kit. Combine them all to create sweet finishing touches for your pages when follow along with our instructions. Or, take you own creative path with the kit and show us the results on our private Facebook Chat Group. We love to see what you create!
If it's your whim to join us, we'd love to have you come on board as a member! You'll start saving on kits and other orders, plus you'll get our bonus page formula each month to help you use your paper stash. (That is, if you have one. Got a stash?) Don't hesitate to give us a ring at 888-634-9100 if you have more questions or want to set things up.
Whimsy Card Kit
View the entire kit, finished cards, and gift box . . .
After receiving a member request for a fun way to give/store 5x7" cards, we designed the perfect box. The lid fits snugly, yet easily over the box base. And the heavyweight duplex paper makes the best substrate for a strong, sturdy gift to fill with cards and gift to someone you love.
To celebrate the season of thankfulness, we have a special add-on for you! If you're in need of an extra bundle of "thank you" cards, pick up the bonus cutaparts! The cutting map is an exact duplicate of the all-occasion sentiments included in the card kit. Pick and choose which ones you prefer, or make an entire second set of cards with more Whimsy paper (or coordinating papers from your stash).
Join us as a card kit member and step up your card making game. Members frequently comment they've significantly improved their skills with a membership. (You certainly can order and try a card kit without joining, but members save $8 on kits!)
Whimsy Stamps
Julie has another set of colorful and inspiring card ideas to get you started with your new Whimsy stamps. Watch the blog later this month for details on how she created her cheerful cards. Meanwhile, don't wait to get started with your own ideas, and be sure to post them to our Facebook chat group!
We hope this vibrant collection makes you smile!
