The autumn inspiration continues today, with a bit of a focus on gratitude. No matter how good or bad things might be going in our lives at any given time, we've all got much to be grateful for and so, today's new product introductions will make it easier than ever to foster a grateful heart, by creating cards and gifts that say thank you as we approach the Thanksgiving holiday. We're grateful for you and we're happy to be bringing you products that will allow you to express your gratitude to others.
Our Make It Market Mini Kits are designed for those who love the idea of Betsy Veldman's popular kits, but are a bit more budget conscious. As another perk, these new kits will NOT be limited edition, they will be a regular item carried in our store. These will be released throughout the year randomly, not on a set schedule, so it will be a surprise each month as to whether or not there will be a new one to collect! Now a little bit more of the Make It Market Mini Kit being released this month, Color Pop: Autumn!
Whip up some pretty autumn projects that really pop! Start with one of the neutral-colored papers in the kit, and add pops of color using the included multi-step stencils. Create pretty patterned papers and accents in any color combination your heart desires! Add even more color and detail using the Color Pop: Autumn stamps from the kit. Coordinating dies and some pre-printed cut outs offer up even more layering options!
Color Pop: Autumn Kit includes:
- Color Pop: Autumn mini stamp set + label
- Color Pop: Autumn die collection
- Color Pop: Autumn paper collection (14 A2 sheets)
- Color Pop: Autumn stencil collection (set of 4)
The Color Pop: Autumn Kit will be available for purchase on August 15th!
