Sorry if the website has been acting up the past couple of days - we're getting more and more traffic our way and while this is good, it's causing us some growing pains :) Thanks very much for your patience while we sort things like this out.
All the pieces of the September kits are finally here! And they will be shipped a few days late, b/c my DH and I are going on vacation next week. We're taking a cruise to Alaska!
Totally excited about that. And I'm totally excited over a piece of software that my friend Nathalie pointed out to me - bloglines.com It helps you keep up with your favorite blogs - any of them who have an Atom or RSS feed, which most do if they're on blogspot or typepad or LJ. Very cool, thanks Nat!

Wow, it's been awhile
March 15 was the last time I posted to this blog. Dang, that's a long time. I have nothing to say other than life just got in the way, as it often does.
Now, I have been tagged as a "Rockin Girl Blogger" by my friend and DT Member/Editor/Queen Catherine, so I must update - that and you 3 readers deserve one too, LOL.
ScrapMuse news - there's a huge surprise in the works for this year. It will most likely come in fall. I am working really hard to make it happen and I am nervous about it going off without a hitch.
There's a hella-sale going on there right now, 10-70% pretty much everything, kits included. It's a darn good deal, lemme tell ya. I just got tired of looking at those older kits wanting to be loved and ordered - my garage is overrun with product and I need to MOVE IT OUT to bring in new fun stuff.
Hints for the fall kits? TEXTURE and lots of it!
I promise this blog will be kept up better from now on...until the big surprise comes along and then we'll do things a *little* differently.
Oh, and it's a GOOD surprise. (and one that I've mentioned before). Hope you like surprises!

Product Review...UHU liquid glue
So I got some samples of UHU All purpose, Liquid glue and would love to share my thoughts on this product.
First, the price point of this product is $3.25 I believe. (Looking on amazon.com)
The bottle is 3.2 ounces, and the design fits nicely into my hand. You can use the glue three ways: as a small pointed tip, narrow glue strip, or wide glue strip.
I took this glue with me to the Ali Edwards Discover Home class last Friday, and I must be honest, I was a bit unimpressed with it at first. The main reason is that it is very runny and so it is easy to use too much. Which is what I did, all over the cover of my Junkitz metal album. A little saddening, but ah well.
As the class went on, I got better at going lightly with it, but it really wasn't until today that I feel like I was using just the right amount. This is all with the small pointed tip, by the way.
Today I also tested the narrow and wide glue strip capability of this product...I was less impressed with that - again easy to overdo... The way you get the flat gluing surface is by twisting the top of the bottle around, which is a REALLY cool idea, but somehow the narrow tip part still sticks out a little bit and so really you end up with a line of glue that you have to work to smear around, which gets glue all over the sides of the bottle and then have to wipe off, else you'll glue the cap to the bottle.
So all in all, I will not be carrying this product in the store, and my favorite liquid glue, Aleene's tacky glue, is still the 'reigning champ' in my book.

March kits will be shipping soon!
I am really excited about this kit - almost b/c I think you need to see the papers in person to understand how cool they are. Lana did a great job with kit pics this time, but the distressed nature of these papers just doesn't seem to come through...
In other news, we have so many CHA goods in the store right now - it's awesome. I just love going into the warehouse to gawk at the many fun things available.
