A sneak peek...

A sneak peek...

Hi all!

Hope you are having a good day! Me, I'm still in an epic battle with my internet connections (like Lord of The Rings for ISP's or something). Here's the latest for those keeping track at home:

- cable came back up late yesterday afternoon
- cable went back down this morning
- DSL is back up this morning, so I haven't had to resort to dial-up yet today (thank goodness)
- cable technician comes out Thursday afternoon to figure out what is going on...

And thank goodness I kept my DSL account for a little while, you know? I just don't understand why I am having so many issues.

That being said, well, there is big excitement brewing on many levels here at Skye Scrapz central. First and most pressing: the collaborative kit that hits the store TOMORROW. Here's a little sneak peek:

That's just a mere sampling of Little Darlin'. Jessica and I will each have our respective halves for sale in our respective studios at ScrapbookGraphics. Here are handy-dandy links to said studios:

Krista's Studio
Jessica's Studio

So, the BIG SCOOP: tomorrow, we are each offering our halves of the kit for $2 (super special sale price). ONE DAY ONLY for the sale price! On Thursday, midnight eastern, each half goes up to full price ($5 per half). The catch is that you won't be able to see the full kit or know the complete contents until Thursday -- tomorrow's super sale will only feature the sneak peek image in the store. I can honestly say that you are getting more like $7 worth of stuff for $2. Seriously.

The kit is a baby kit... kinda-sorta. It's unlike any baby kit you've ever seen, I'm sure! And really, only the word art and one paper are baby-related. EVERYTHING else in both halves of the kit could be used for any sort of layout. We created this kit in honor of Tania Cordova's soon-to-be-born little one Talulah! :D

Starting tomorrow and for a few days, I'll have coordinating freebies here, so be sure to stop by for those!

In other news, Melissa and I are moving DigiScrapZ to a new location and giving it a new name! We have started working with our friend Audrey at Mootsie, and we have put together an e-store that includes all of the digi goodness of DigiScrapZ with way-cool, hybrid-friendly mini-books, chipboard products, paper crafting supplies, ephemera, trinkets, rubber stamps... basically it's DigiScrapZ with a whole lot more goodies! So Altered Art Chicks was born! Here's the announcement splash image:

Even though we'll have a new name, Altered Art Chicks will offer the same great products and service you've come to know and expect from DigiScrapZ. In fact, we've named the section in the store that features digital scrapbooking supplies "DigiScrapZ" so you'll know where to go for your favorite stuff. We've officially disabled the store at DigiScrapZ, but if you have any questions about past orders, we're keeping the site active until the end of July.

FYI, AAC will be doing a big launch in September, so look for info on that coming up soon. Until then, we're continuing to stock the emporium, load product-in-use examples into the studio gallery, and we'll be rolling with our blog soon. The store at AAC (aka the emporium) is open and ready to shop in now! Can't wait to hear what you think of it! And tell me what you think of my chick site design! :)

I've been meaning to come by all week and thank you SO much for Little Darlin'. It's absolutely perfect Krista in every way!! You and Jess make such an awesome team and I'm so honored that you did this for Talula. It just screams Talula all the way. I've been so busy, but I should have a layout up tonight, her first page!! Yay!
