Our December 2008 Kit went on sale this month for 25% off.  If you are like me and WAAAAAY behind in your scrapping, this would be the perfect kit to get you inspired to scrap some of those holiday photos!  Here are some projects the Inspired Blueprints team made with the kit:

Check out the gallery to see what the design team and some of our fabulous customers did with the kit.

In addition to the December kit, the October 2008 and the November 2008 kits are still on sale of 25% off.  Remember if you purchase 2 of the 2008 kits together, you receive 35% off each kit instead of 25% AND if you purchase all 3 of the 2008 kits, you receive 40% off each kit instead of 25%.  Go to the Kits page for more information!

***Update on March kits: I expect to have more of the March kits put together by the end of this week/beginning of next week***

Helen made these adorable flowers from the crepe paper included in the March Kit and she was kind enough to share how she made them:

Instructions for simple crepe flower

·       Cut the crepe ribbon 8 scallops long

·       Put a thin strip of fast drying glue along the bottom of the ribbon

·       Start in one end and fold the ribbon towards the middle

·       Finish off with a glue dot and a button

Starting this month, the design team is going to share instructions for one of the projects they created using the kit.  There will eventually be a page on the website with the project sheets, monthly sketches, and other tips/instructions (such as the ones for the crepe paper flowers), but until I get that up and running, please contact me HERE and I will e-mail you this month’s instruction sheet.       

Thanks to everyone that entered the February Sketch Contest, the winner is Jill Deiling:

***March Contest***

The March Contest is to make a page or a mini-book with “A day/Week in the Life of…”  Please send your submissions to Pam@kraftgirlkits.com by March 31st, 11:59 p.m. CST!  Can’t wait to see what you come up with!

***I will keep you updated on the status if more March kits coming in.  Right now, there will not be anymore available until mid-March.  If you are interested in one, please contact me here and let me know***

***The March Kit is sold out.  If you are interested in it, please contact me HERE, and I can see about getting more, or a similar kit put together if there are enough people interested.  For the future, the best way to reserve a kit is to sign up for a subscription, which you can do HERE.  Any new subscriptions created in March will begin with April’s kit.  April’s sneak peeks will be up sometime mid-month, but I will tell you there are going to be lots of new CHA-W releases, including Pink Paislee and Cosmo Cricket;)

We are also having a sale on all of the 2008 Kits, which you can view HERE, just scroll down! 

YAY!  This kit was one of my favorites to put together…it is filled with bright colors and lots of fun products!

The February Sketch was such a hit, that I decided to keep doing monthly sketches.  This one is not for the monthly contest, but just for inspiration!!  It was made by Jakki Weddle with the March Kit in mind!

And here is a page made by Helen using the March sketch and the March kit:
 

In a few days, we will be sharing a tutorial from Helen for those awesome flowers she created with the crepe paper ribbon from the kit!

There is more to share about March, so check back for the monthly contest and MORE!!!
