This week will be JAM packed....

with exciting reveals! I promised you a sneak peek from Pink Paislee AND I have yet another release from Quickutz to share with you today as well. We'll start with Pink Paislee. They have *FOUR* exciting collections coming your way. The first two, which will begin shipping in August, are Amber Road and Twilight. Here's a peek at some awesome projects from the Pink Paislee design team.

Next up, shipping in October, is the Mistle Toe & Co. Collection.

And last but not least, shipping in December, is the Cupid Collection.

Don't you think it's *delicious* or should I say *Pink-a-licious*?!

Quickutz launched a sister company called Lifestyle Crafts, aka the "L". They have a revolutionary new product called Letterpress that is designed to work with the new
Epic 6. Basically, the Letterpress works similarly to embossing. It actually debosses the image but you only see it on the front of your paper unlike regular embossed/debossed images you see from both sides. You can add ink to your printing plate before you run it through the Epic 6 and you end up with a professional looking, colored image. Here's a look at the Letterpress Starter Kit...

Now I will show you a few project samples from the L design team and a look at the printing plate collections. First up is the Celebration collection.

Next up is the Everyday collection...

And the Holiday collection...

We'll have these up on our site as soon as possible but until then you can view more images HERE.

Now I have a great project to show you from our friend, Carrie Buss. Carrie is taking a summer Library Science class and she received an assignment to "make a book." That seems like a simple enough assignment, right? Carrie decided to make an ABC book for her children. For the next few weeks I'll be sharing Carrie's pages with you. Carrie basically made a mini-book with pictures of things that are relevant to her children's lives, laminated the pages then bound them with her Bind-it-All. Here's the cover...

Carrie used the Quickutz Marigold alphabet mixed with Dragonfly and Aquarius for her title. Here's her A, B and C pages...

Carrie added die cuts to EVERY page! Here she used the Apple and Aliens, the Bumblebee and Book, and the Cookie, Crown and Crayon.

WOW! I don't know about you but I'm excited to see what else our favorite companies have in store for us! We'll be back here tomorrow with a reveal from BossKut! Have a great day and we'll see you then!
