It's Friday and I'm starting to get a bit anxious about our upcoming CHA show! Wow, we leave in 22 days and I still have waaaayyy too much to do! The good news is... we start SNEAK PEEKS next week! Woo Hoo! Let me give you a litte one now...
I was at my press check yesterday for 12 hours so I got to spend some quality time with my sales rep and take some pics of "hot off the press" product!
Next up: Let's see what's up with Ella Publishing! Jillibean Soup is sponsoring the "Stretch Your Sketches" Challenge Series this month! Check out one of this month's sketches...

Here is Donna Jannuzzi's take on the sketch... ADORABLE!
You can head on over to their blog and check out a 2nd sketch and a layout Donna created using Pasta Fagioli. Also, Donna has posted instructions to win a prize pack of Watermelon Gazpacho! Hurry, you'll need to link up your projects by June 30th to be included in the giveaway. Cute, cute stuff! Thank you Donna!

For our Retailers:: this is the last day to take advantage of our SUMMER WAREHOUSE SALE!!! Great prices on fabulous products!
For our Consumers:: All of our card kits and project kits are 20% off right now in the retail store. Head on over - supplies are limited!
Now, for a Giveaway!!!! I received my copies of Scrapbook & Cards Today this week and I have an extra one to share! I just love this magazine! It's special this time because our own Kimber McGray designed the cover and there's Jillibean Soup on there!
