ABOUT SCRAPBOOK CIRCLE: Scrapbook Circle is a monthly kit club that has been creating kits for almost 5 years and loves getting to share these kits each month. We offer a 2+ month subscription which means that you only commit to receiving two kits and then you can go month to month and quit at any time.

One person will win a bundle of 4 ebooks from Ella Publishing! This group of ebooks covers all the bases for scrapbookers. Ideas of what to scrapbook, sketches, journaling and of course, top notch photography tips.

Also, Ella has an ebook bundle special for my readers. Read on for a message from one of my favorite freelance clients, owner of Ella Publishing, Angie Lucas:

BUNDLE UP AND SAVE WITH ELLA PUBLISHING! Hi Cathy Zielske readers! Angie Lucas here, on behalf of Ella Publishing Co., and I'd like to offer you an exclusive little dealio. Why? Because we like you. And because Cathy designs all our eBooks. And while you're reading them, we just know you'll be saying to yourself, "Wow, this eBook feels so fresh, so inviting, so comfortable...so familiar!" It's because your reading experience has been shaped by the familiar visual stylings of miss CZ.

So, just for you loyal Zielske readers, please enjoy a little Bundle of eBooks for 50 percent off!

A Year in the Life by Write.Click.Scrapbook. Perfect for catching up on 2010 or preparing to make the most of 2011! Includes month-by-month photo taking checklists!

Stretch Your Sketches by Donna Jannuzzi. These sketches and the layouts they inspired are not only gorgeous, they're also rock-solid design wise, and they're bound to inspire dozens of your future layouts!

Journaling That Matters by Angie Lucas and Kelly Jeppson. Try these simple and super meaningful approaches (from two writing professionals) and tell your stories in style.

Picture Perfect by Becky Novacek, Elisha Snow, and Kelly Noel. Three pro photographers share simple tricks to taking better portraits of everyone in your life--from babies to adults to groups.

These four books sell for $24.96 all together, but because you read Cathy's blog, you can get this bundle for just $12.48! Use the code CZBUNDLE at checkout by January 31, 2011.

What if you're not ready to make that big of an eBook commitment quite yet? Or what if you already have some of the eBooks featured above? Instead, you can use the coupon code CZCZCZ to save $3 off of any eBook purchase [link to http://www.ellapublishing.com/catalog...] before January 31, 2011.

Also, one random commenter today will get her/his choice of TEN eBooks (past or future) for free--a value of nearly $60. So, let's hear what you have to say!

p.s. What the heck is an eBook, you ask? It's like a regular old scrapbooking idea book that's so amazing it will change your life forever, with one difference: you download and read it electronically. It's a cinch! Or you can always print it and read it in hard copy if that strikes your fancy. You can do SO much with an eBook, as you can see in this quick article.

TO ENTER: How are your pronouncing "2011"? Do you say "twenty-eleven" or do you say "two thousand and eleven"? Dan and I were talking about this, and why is it in the 2000s, everyone said, "two thousand"? He feels it's time to stop. No one said "nineteen hundred and sixty six" in the year I was born, right? So tell me, what's your call? I'll draw winners sometimes after noon CST on Saturday
