Updates!

Hello everyone!

Finally, a chance to sit down and share some updates with you!!
Firstly, about the stamps kit of September 2010: It got misplaced during eid and ramadan time and after a lot of hitting heads with emirates post,finally they have tracked it down. Will email all the subscribers once it reaches me.

Anyways it was not only emirates post, all of the companies over committed at CHA time and now send the following emails :

"We are a bit behind schedule due to delays in receiving product but your order will ship within the next 7-10 days

Sorry for the delay"

 Hope it gets sorted out soon!

And a mega thank-you to all of you for your support and understanding.

Anyways, our October sneak peaks will start in a day or two.
 
Do stay tuned...

Another Layout: Lil Bee's September kit 2010

Hi Again!,

I have made another layout showcasing the masks and fragments from Lil Bee's Sept Exclusive kit.The papers used are from the main kit.

This layout is quite different from my style of scrapping but I tried to keep things simple.
On the top I used glimmer mist in 3 shades, Burnt red, Apple and Peach delight.

I used Tim's fragment from the exclusive kit. I used 2 shades of alcohol ink and stamped the butterfly,then colored it in with the Copic markers. In the end i covered it up thickly with glossy accents from the Exclusive kit.

Once dry, I glued a flower on top and added it to my layout.

I would love to see your projects with Lil Bee's kits.
