Hey, hey Sweet Shoppers! Can you believe how fast summer is flying by? It’s a little quieter around the shoppe this week, and I suspect it’s because the team is soaking up the last bits of sunshine before our busy season kicks in. Luckily, we’ve still got some sweet new releases you’re going to love. Take a peek…

As you can see, this week’s new releases cover a little bit of everything, and I have to say, I’m loving the variety! There’s a cheeky kit for telling people to buzz off (because we all need that sometimes), a sweet bundle for capturing the excitement of the first days of school, a bright and fun collection that will help you celebrate those llamazing birthdays, and plenty more for all the little moments you want to remember. The best part? Everything new is 25% off through Tuesday at Noon ET, so it’s the perfect time to stock up on new goodies to make your summer memories last forever.

Speaking of sweet things hitting the shoppe, I also have a fabulous new Featured Designer freebie for you! Cheryl of Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs went into the spotlight just a few moments ago, and her new templates are as fabulous as you would expect. If you love labels (and honestly, who doesn’t?), her Label Love Affair templates are perfect for creating pages that are organized and perfectly labeled. The best part? They’re yours FREE when you spend $10 in the shoppe over the next couple of weeks!

If you’re like me and you get a little thrill from office supplies and staying organized, you’re going to love having these in your stash. And if you can’t get enough, pick up Cheryl’s Label Love Affair Part Deux for even more fun, label-filled goodness!

Speaking of beauties, the Babes have been busy turning Cheryl’s new templates and all of this weekend’s new goodies into pure magic! Their layouts are bursting with color, clever little details, and some of that signature personality that always makes me smile. I love seeing how each of them makes our products their own, and I think you’re going to be inspired too. Take a peek at some of the gorgeous pages they’ve created over the past week…

Before I go, don’t forget that we’re in the final stretch of this year’s Summer Scrap-A-Thon! There’s still plenty of time to play along, get inspired, and scrap your heart out for a chance at some sweet prizes. I’ve picked a few standout pages to show off this weekend, but the gallery is overflowing with inspiration. Pop over and leave some love!

I’m keeping it short and sweet this week, so that’s it for me tonight. I’ll see you on Tuesday with our latest batch of Sweet Steals. In the meantime, keep making those sweet memories and scrap MORE!
