Hello scrapbook friends!! I thought for sure we would be having a big product release on Monday, but instead CM is giving us a teeny tiny release (basically just two items). I might not ordinarily email you about this, but it’s also time to register for April events, and I do think that the main item coming this time is GREAT and you may want to get your hands on it.
Read on for info about April’s events, National Scrapbook Day updates, our next Mom & Me Crop, the 2nd Quarter Simple Page kits and the new Creative Motivation Bundle. Plus another 50% off punch!
OH! And since Tuesday is April Fools’ Day, and CM for some reason loves that holiday (remember the “magic camera sponge” from last year?) they will be giving an extra gift to those placing online orders! I have no idea what it is. Hope it isn’t another magic camera sponge (although I do use that to wash dishes at my studio!!)

Simple Page Kit Bundle #2
|
|
|
The more people I have trying out the Simple Page Kits, the more positive feedback I hear about them! These predesigned layouts are a quick and easy way to get your photos into albums FAST!
Each month Creative Memories is releasing one page kit, which creates one layout. OR you can buy the quarterly bundles which include all three of that quarter’s bundles, exclusive embellishments AND Power Simple Pockets to store each month’s memorabilia before you get around to scrapbooking it!
If you are local, I would love to have you join our quarterly Simple Page Kit club, which meets one Friday night each quarter. In two hours you’ll be able to finish three layouts which you can then add photos to. At the end of the year you’ll have completed 26 pages (13 double page spreads - I include a bonus kit for yearly club members!)
It’s not to late to get the whole year’s worth of kits - or you can sign up for just the remaining three quarters OR just this quarter’s crop on Friday, May 9th. Or you can just purchase the April Simple Page kit and do it on your own. |

CM has been offering some of their older punches at 50% off, and this time (through April 11th) it’s time for the Friendly Fish Border Punch! Just $14.50! |
|
|
For a closer view of the new products launching Monday, check out CM’s info page here: Sneak Peek the March 31
If you are local and would like me to order any of these items for you, you can pick them up at any of my scheduled events starting with this weekend’s crop, April 4 & 5, or we can set up a time that works for both of us. PLEASE order on this google form: Local Pickup Order Form.
If you plan to order online, I can’t pay your shipping, but I CAN give you a $10 CM Credit to help offset that. Please email me and say “I am going to order” and I will happily transfer it to your account. https://www.creativememories.com/user/nicolesoh

Seems like an unusually short email for me, but that’s a good thing because I still haven’t done my taxes, and now it’s time for me to focus on those!
My guess is that we will get our “main” April product release on the 6th. I think we are due for the next Secret Box soon too - so maybe we’ll know by then. In any case, you know I’ll be in touch when there are things to tell you!
Happy Scrapbooking!
