Pretty Scrappy Closed

I am sorry if anyone went to the store in the last 48 hours to either place an order or pick up an order, I would have written sooner but I had to get my head around a few things that went on in the store.

Friday I was notified by another designer that Pretty Scrappy’s store owner Julie Frank (Share Your Moments Designs) and the store manager Robin Grief (ScrapperGirl Designs, Big Apple Designs and Plain Jane Designs – which was all part of the problem) were accused by another store of stealing and using non-commercial use elements from multiple kits in their own works. The reaction by the owner was a full denial despite quite visible proof. I was able to pull all of my products from the store and write a letter to leave the store just before Julie closed down the ftp, shut down the store and sent an email that basically said nothing to only about 30% of the Pretty Scrappy teams. Many innocent designers and team members tried to log into the store only to find it “closed for maintenance” and no explanation. I am fortunate enough to have two other stores (Divine Digital HERE and HERE and Digital Scrap Ink) but other designers were not so lucky.

If you have purchased anything from me, Tammy, or our Life’s Everyday Moments collection at Pretty Scrappy and were unable to pick up your product, please send me your invoice and I will get your product to you.

More Layouts

I have been working on so many layouts and I can't wait to share some of these kits with you.

1)  Firefighter Heros by Wimpy Chompers available HERE at Pretty Scrappy.  The template is by The Paper Iris @ www.thepaperiris.blogspot.com

2)  Bohemia by Sweet Blossom Designs; Template by The Paper Iris

My youngest got to go to Prom this year.  He is only a freshman so it was an honor to be allowed to go.  They had so much fun and Lauren was glad that she hadn't missed her senior prom.

3) Family Matters by Creations by Rachel available HERE at Pretty Scrappy.  The template was a freebie by Chrissy W.

I read a challenge on one of the blogs (of course I can't remember which one) that asked you to scrap about why you scrapped.  I even lifted this layout from that site.  I promise I will give credit when I figure out which blog I got the idea from.  If you know and want to leave me a comment I will fix this. :)

 4) Life 365 by Weeds and Wildflowers 

I did this layout for a speed scrap that I held over at Pretty Scrappy this month.  I love this kit and all of its pieces.  

5) Fun in the Sun by the Pretty Scrappy Design Team.  This kit will be available June 1, 2009 at Pretty Scrappy.  The template is by The Paper Iris.

I love being able to play catch up on scrapping, and working with pictures of the boys when they were little really brings a smile to my face. I remember Sticker Pox so vividly that it still makes me chuckle. It is amazing the things that kids find to get into trouble with.

6) School's Out 4 Summer by Teri's Thing-O-My-Jigs available HERE at Pretty Scrappy.  Template by The Paper Iris.
