2024 TRAVEL COLLECTION 

Our brand new 2024 Travel Collection is here! The products are in the warehouse and ready to ship to you! We’re excited to offer free shipping ($20 international flat rate) with a $75 purchase in the travel collection category. Use code TRAVEL24 during checkout. We’ve also got a brand new Start To Finish Travel Workshop coming this summer using products from this collection! Lessons will go live each Friday starting July 5th until August 9th.  

NEW CLASS FROM ALI | STASH CLASS

Join Ali for a fun, motivating adventure into some ways to deal with all the scrapbooking stuff you’ve collected over the years and still have. Sometimes we need to press pause on our storytelling adventures for just a bit in order to get a handle on the fun things we’ve added to our physical product toolbox. Let’s come together as a community + spend some time prioritizing starting with our stash to get more of our stories told. In this four week workshop you’ll spend the first two weeks sorting + organizing supplies (or getting ideas about what might work for you) and the second two weeks creating projects using what you already own. Learn more here.

JULY REVEAL

Earlier this month we revealed a new Story Kit™ theme: COLLECT! To collect can mean to bring or gather together, to solicit and receive, or to regain control of oneself. As memory keepers we are often collectors of photos and words and supplies and we bring those things together to document our lives. What do you collect in your life? What did you collect when you were a kid? This month we are coming together to tell stories of collecting whether they are things or memories or friends or books or thoughts or something else entirely. Head to the blog for Ali’s post with all the details about this month’s release.

JULY DIGITALS 

The first Friday of every month we have a new digital release available in the shop. Play with scale, recolor objects, add journaling, print multiples…the sky is the limit when playing with digitals. Shop digitals here.

2024 PROJECTS + PRODUCTS SCHEDULE

As we continuing easing into 2024 we put together an overview of our schedule of projects + product releases for the upcoming year. We are sharing this as a way for you to plan, think about what you might want to participate in this year, and simply share some of the things we have coming up to help support + inspire storytelling. For the last few years we've followed a fairly similar cadence for our releases and our major projects will follow that release schedule again this year. Please note that, as you might imagine, this schedule is subject to change throughout the year based on a variety of variables. Find the post here.

As always, we’re so grateful to have you all as members of this community! Thanks for joining me today and have a great weekend!
