Erin's comment in the last post made me laugh out loud - it is so awesome to hear words of encouragement and know that one's work/products are being loved on, but I thought her two words sums up what I think about this set of ours:
Definitely drool-worthy, and this is of course the work of Karen Russell for FontWerks. I just love the beautiful way she's dressed up these butterflies - they are so elegant and totally makes me want to create something beautiful with them! We're calling this set "Flitter."
The winner from the previous post is CJJ!! Thank you all again for your comments and I hope you will find these stamps and create what you've envisioned. And when you do, please send me a link to your work. I love seeing how people use our art in all their creative ways! And by the way, Pam - you wished we were making more the 4 circle stamps - it's available as part of the Patterna set, but we happen to have more coming - we just have about 100 or so right now so those will be given out at CHA. The others will be given out as samples to our retailers as well as consumers at CKC-Mesa where we'll be exhibiting. We'll be using them for make and takes, RAKS and more too.
Next week is the week for us to sign Cameron up for kindergarten for September. I can't believe it's time for that already. Hopefully he'll get into the school we want him to attend (it's out of our cachement area and it's the school Emily currently attends). We've decided to put him into the French Immersion program as well since Em's in it and doing well. I've promised Em a trip to Paris when she graduates from high school if she keeps in the french immersion program and I wonder if that will be a motivator for Cameron as well?
I've got some friends coming to crop at my house on the weekend. It's just been too long since I last cropped, and am looking forward to it even though it's so close to CHA. I'll be working on more CHA samples, hopefully using some of the stamps from the Flitter set!
On Monday, I'll give you a sneak peek to a new product we're debuting at CHA. We're pretty proud that it's being made in Canada, and being provided at an awesome price point too. You won't want to miss it.
Happy (early) weekend and see you on Monday!
You are killin' me with these sneaks, Kah-Mei. I.Need.It.All.Now!!!!!!!!!!
Please tell me we won't have to wait too long to get them.
You know this is is the release that has me more excited every time CHA comes around :)

Thanks for the info about the circle stamps.
I absolutely love everything Karen Russell does and this new stamp set is no exception. I am lucky enough to live within 100 miles of her and have taken many classes from her. She is a class act! I'll be looking for this set to be retailed!
