Welcome to the Scarlet Lime Newsletter

 

First off.. MARCH kits are shipping this week! Can't wait to see what you all do with them! I LOVE how the main kit looks all packaged.. oh so yummy.. probably my favorite kit so far..
 

BUT I think I say that every time! LOL.. and with April.. I Love what's in store as well! In this newsletter we have LOTS of  wonderful inspiration, special links, info and MORE sneak peeks of APRIL! It's PACKED Full of information and inspiration.. PLUS of course or weekly giveaway!
 

We also have some news on an upcoming changes to our website and more.. so check it out below! 
 

But before we get started... I wanted to put the "bug" into your ear.. that in MID April, we will be having a semi-annual sale on all of our past Exclusive STAMPS from past kits for Scarlet Lime!  Not all stamps from our past kits are available.. because we don't actually order "extra" stamps for our kits, but sometimes the way our stamps are produced, we end up with more than we needed for kits. Sooo..  we will put those up for a semi-annual sale.. for those who missed out! Watch for news on that.. coming in the new few weeks!

I hope you all have a wonderful Monday :)

Hugs to you all!

 

 

 

SO.. last week I had MANY MANY requests to know how Wilna, who is our guest artist for March...  made this FUN and SUPER easy 9x9 frame album. So I e-mailed her and within hours, she had instructions to me and close up pictures of how to put the frame album together! So HUGE thanks to Wilna for doing this for us! Simply Click on the link below to view the instructions.

Dress up and Dance Frame/Album instructions..

On another note.. Wilna had a few questions from some ladies about products and techniques she used on her projects. So I thought it would be great to post those answers here for any of you that might be wondering. Also, if anyone else has a question for Wilna.. simply send me an e-mail at christy@scarletlime.com  and and at the end of the week we will post the answers to your questions on the blog :)

Read below for Wilna's question and answers..

Question: By the way, what is your favorite liquid glue or supplies you reach for?  

Answer: I love the tombow liquid glues. It sticks like crazy! You can glue anything with it. And it dries fast!

Question: Could you please tell us more about ATC's. I have heard them mentioned several times on different blogs but i am not all that sure just what they are or what the "rules" are about making them. I love the idea of having them up on the wall the way you have got them.

Answer: ATC's, or Artist trading Cards are individual art miniatures which pass hand to hand. Almost like the artist business card! You can read about the history here. The good news about ATC's are that there is no right or wrong! The only "rule" is that it should be relatively small so that you can carry them around. Mine are the size of a deck of cards. It's actually a good idea to use a deck of cards as the base to make your cards from!

 

So last week I also posted this peek of the ATC wall that Wilna did using the Main kit. She created ATC cards with the kit, then mounted them on the wall with frames, canvas's etc. and Again.. I many of you e-mailed me wanting to see close up pictures of those ATC cards, so now you can! We have posted up-close pictures of the cards Wilna's Guest Artist Gallery.. click on the link below to take you there!!

Wilna's Guest Artist Gallery

So I LOVE it when my subscribers send me pictures of the layouts they have done using the kits from Scarlet Lime and before I share with you just a few that were sent this past month, I wanted to tell you some BIG news!  We are working on setting up a Gallery and a Message board hopefully in the next few months! The Gallery will come first, and then the message board.. but we are hoping by mid summer we will have both available for our subscribers!

Okay! So our first layout, above was sent to me by my dear friend Louisa-may from Singapore! She used our January main kit and I  love how she used paper strips over the transparency from Hambly to create the simply background! Great technique!

 

The next layout is from subscriber, Carrie from Scrapshanty.. She did a great job with the Round and Round mini kit from February. This kit is still my favorite kit so far! So cute with the arrow and the circle and the cluster of small embellishment on the side. The simply journaling is perfect.. and love how she covered the chipboard alphabets with paper too! Thanks for sharing this girl :)

 

The last layout (below), was created by subscriber Megan Aaron. This kit was using our February main kit. I love how she created the circle as basically her "background" but it also acts as an embellishment to the page as well.. so COOL!

 

thanks ladies for sharing these with me.. and ALL the wonderful gals who send me the projects and layouts each month! YOU ROCK! and I always love seeing them in my inbox...

I LOVE interchangeable stamps,  and so I wanted to create a stamp that you could have several different looks with! This kit comes with 1 main stamp and then 6 stamps that can be used inside of the main stamp.. OR on their own! In this kit we create a fun chipboard mini album, so I wanted a stamp I could use on every page, to journal with, but that also had a different look to it each time.. and so this is what I came up with.. Can't wait to show you what I do with it..  I left the sneak peek of the papers on here too, so you could remember how fun this kit is going to be!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here's another small peek of what's in store for the April mini kit! This fabulous two in one stamp created by Chrissy Le! These two stamps can be used together.. but separate as well! and of course the papers for the kit are below it.. This is a FUN little kit!
