Happy Friday, Sweet Shoppers! After a week of hints and sneak peeks, the wait is finally over… National Scrapbook Day is officially here! I’m so excited because our team has been working hard to make this weekend absolutely huge. I have so many incredible things to share tonight, so keep reading for a look at our latest treats, the stunning limited edition collections our designers created just for this event, and everything you need to scrap, share, and save BIG here at the sweetest spot in town.

As always, our designers have completely outdone themselves with a massive drop of new treats! We have nearly 200 brand new goodies hitting the shoppe tonight, and I’m not kidding when I say there are some absolute must haves in the mix, no matter your scrap style. I know you’re ready to see what the team has been up to, so let’s dive in with your first look at…

OMGosh! There’s so much new stuff, and as you can see, there’s truly something for everyone. Whether you’re a Disney fanatic, ready to get messy with an art journal inspired collection, or already dreaming about your summer travels, our designers have you covered. From faith and photography to everything in between, you’ll find exactly what you need to tell your stories.

If you’re a template fan, you are in for such a treat because our designers went all out this week! There are dozens of new templates making their debut tonight, and they’re perfect for getting those memories onto the page quickly and beautifully.

Best of all, not only are our newest goodies absolutely scrumptious, EVERYTHING in the shoppe, including this week’s releases and our CU Designer Tools, is 40% OFF through Tuesday, May 5th at Noon ET!

As if the savings weren’t sweet enough, our newest Featured Designer, Kris Isaacs, stepped into the spotlight earlier today, and the kit she created for our latest special offer is seriously precious! We Were Young is the softest, sweetest baby collection I’ve seen in awhile, and I think you’ll love having it in your stash. Take a peek…

Kris is such an incredible talent, and I’m beyond grateful she’s part of our team. She has a beautiful sense of color, and her style is so distinctive you can truly spot her work in an instant. I’ve been a huge fan since she joined us, and I love that everyone who spends $10 in the shoppe over the next two weeks gets to experience her designs. If you’re not already a fan, I have a feeling you will be once you start creating with this one. Be sure to check out her interview on the blog to get to know her a little better and see We Were Young in action.

While our Featured Designer gifts are always a fun bonus, we had to make things even sweeter for National Scrapbook Day! It’s a long standing tradition here at Sweet Shoppe Designs for our entire team to collaborate on limited edition mega collections for our biggest events, and this year is no exception. I’m so excited to introduce Calm, Cool, and Collected, a stunning trio that is yours FREE when you spend $30 over the next week! Take a look…

This year, we wanted to capture a range of moods every scrapper can connect with, and that’s exactly how Calm, Cool, and Collected came to life. Whether you’re drawn to the soft cottage core feel of Calm, the bright and playful energy of Cool, or the layered, eclectic details in Collected, these collections give you the perfect foundation for your memories.

Each one is packed with a huge assortment of papers and elements, coordinating alphabets, a 12×12 template, and a set of pocket cards, making this offer an absolute steal. You’re already saving 40% on your favorites, and getting all three of these beautiful collections FREE when you spend $30 makes it even better.

We’ve been sharing sneak peeks of these kits all week, but I had to spotlight them one more time because our team created so many incredible layouts. Take a peek at a little eye candy from our amazing Babes, and don’t forget to check out the bonus gallery in the shoppe for even more inspiration!
