It's time! A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA is here!
We sure hope you're planning to check out some of the awesome events at an A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA store near you (links to all of them are over on the right)! And while a visit to a store participating in A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA is the only way to see ALL our new goodies today, we know some of you aren't lucky enough to have one nearby. SO ... we'll be sharing a few of our new images and products with you each day during A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA!
Beginning with some great new goodies perfect for my favorite time of year - Halloween! (And be sure to read on down to the bottom for your chance to win some of these new stamps!)
Gorgeous new 8.5x11 cardstock in Onyx (a lovely, lovely black) and an adorable new owl!
A spooky new branch and solid owl! So many uses for these, that's for sure!
Perfect on it's own as a tag, perfect for a treat, or used as a focal image, our new Spiderweb Tag is sure to be a new favorite! (And we've got some great new sentiments - like this "Trick or Treat" one - too!)
One lucky commenter on THIS post will win the Owl Silhouette and the 'Halloween is a Hoot' sentiment! Simply tell us how YOU'LL be celebrating A-MUSE-A-PALOOZA for a chance to win!
See you back here tomorrow!
OooH! First to comment! I LOVE Halloween and can't wait to see what's in store!!!!
