Some News....

Hi everyone! Well I finished up the last of the grand opening orders, and everything has gone out. Yeah! I hope you all love your goodies! I would love to see pictures of your projects, so if you get a chance, post a link or email me!

I really loved doing the giveaways, so I am going to make them a regular thing. I think I will do them 2 times a month to begin with. I'll start with this month, so that means I'll be doing another one soon! Yeah!

I'm working on several new projects for the shop and replenishing the embellishment and kit categories. With fall and back to school coming up, I have a few fun events planned too. I'll let you know more about those later. :)

Ok, have a great day! Stay tuned for some sneak peeks...

Grand Opening Information

Hi there! Just wanted to take a minute to give you all the scoop on the grand opening. I will have a special "sale" category for all of the sale items in the shop to make it easier to for everyone. The first 2 customers to purchase $35.00 or more will receive a special free gift. (one of the paper bag albums listed in the sneak peaks) I will also be doing a giveaway right here each day of the sale (July 31-Aug. 2) starting tomorrow. I'm going post a pic of cute little goodie and all you have to do is leave a comment and I'll do a random drawing from the names. Sunday's giveaway will be a little different. You have to make a page layout based on one of the blog sketches and send me a picture. The winner will get a sweet little goodie and I'll post the layout on the blog too. Ok... one more thing... if you purchased something between July 24th and today, you are entered in the pre-sale drawing. So check back tomorrow to see if you won! Well I'm off to do some more creating! I have all kinds of things to put in the shop!

Good Morning!

I just wanted to take a minute this morning to say "THANK YOU" to all of you out there who have been reading my little blog and shopping at Pink Owl Paperie! I think you guys are some of the nicest people around! Thanks for all your kind words and excitement over my creations, it REALLY means a lot to me! (sniff sniff) Ok...before I get too mushy I also wanted to remind everyone who has purchased something between Thursday July 24th and today, to check the blog tomorrow because you're entered in a drawing!

Also, the "grand opening" of Pink Owl Paperie starts tomorrow (July 31st-Aug 3rd). Remember, if you make a page layout based on one of the blog sketches you will be entered in one of the sale giveaways. So be ready to send me a picture! I'll be back later today with some more grand opening details about the gift with purchase, the other blog giveaways, etc. I'd better go now, lots to get done! :)

More Freebie Sneak Peaks!

Hello everyone! I just wanted to remind you if you purchased/purchase something from the shop between July 24 and July 30th you will be entered into a drawing for a give-a-way. (hint hint, it's going to be one of the new embellishments I'm currently working on)

I also thought I'd give another sneak peak of another one of the goodies I'll be giving away during the sale next week. Remember the sale dates are Thurs. July 31- Sunday August 3rd. Oh, and be sure and make a layout from one of the sketches on the blog to be entered in one of the give-a-ways. Have a great day!
Sorry the photos are so crazy it was just to bright out with all that white!



P.S. I added a new kit to the shop today, the Pretty Paisley Felt Album Kit, and I just wanted to let you know I am working on making one right now. So... those of you who would rather buy the completed album rather than making one yourself, it should be listed in the shop in the next day or two. Thanks!

More Updates....

Ok, I have the official sale dates: Thurs. July 31st - Sun. August 3rd. I'll be showing previews of the give-a-ways and gift with purchases etc. between now and then. I am going to be doing a give-a-way for anyone who wants to make a layout using one of the sketches I've listed on the blog. I just wanted to let you know so you had plenty of time! A winner will be randomly selected, and then I'll post the layout on the blog. So get scrappin!

Since it's about 1 week before the sale, anyone who purchases something from the shop between now and then will be entered into a prize drawing. On the first day of the sale I randomly draw a winner. Ok, more details to be revealed later as the week progresses. I've got lots of projects I'm working on so you'll be seeing new stuff in the shop all week.

Oh, and here's a preview of one of the goodies I'll be giving away. (not sure for what yet...)


Have a great day!

Some Updates

Hello everyone! I wanted to take a few minutes to update everyone on the big "grand opening" sale I keep talking about. I will know the dates for sure by Thursday, but I'm thinking it will be July 31st through August 3rd. I'm going to be giving away some "big" gifts with purchase (I'll get into more details about this in the next week), a couple of blog give-a-ways, and putting some items in the shop on sale. I'm going to be showing pictures of the gifts with purchase and the give-a-ways over the next week. I'm pretty sure one of the blog give-a-ways will include giving me a link to a layout made from one of the blog sketches. The other will be an easy "leave a comment after this blog entry" type give-a-way. The prizes will be fab, and your participation will make it so much fun! I have several projects I want to get in the shop before the big event, so I'll be busy, busy, busy, especially since I have special orders I'm working on too. Yeah! I love all this fun scrappy stuff! Ok, well that's all for now...have a fabulous morning!


Couldn't leave ya with out a little something to look at! I just love buttons, especially vintage ones. Look at these all sorted by color, just brimming with yummy goodness! Just makes me smile!

Button, button, who's got the button?
