True North Scraps News

There is so much happening at True North Scraps, so grab a cup of coffee or whatever your beverage of choice is and settle in for a bit while you read this! First of all, today is the last day that the TNS MouseScrappers store is open. This is your last chance to pick up several kits that are MouseScrappers exclusives!

Some of these kits will be retired after TNS closes her MS store, others will be revamped at a much later date and won't be available for quite some time. Right now the entire True North Scraps MouseScrappers store is on sale for 50% off until it closes. Don't miss your chance to get these exclusive kits at a great price before they are gone forever.

Next news is the new TNS release! Dawna has made a bright and cheery paper pack and an adorable alphabet that is perfect for LOs about young children. Look for it exclusively at her Scraps N Pieces store in the Bits N Pieces promotion for only $1 each for the first week of September!

Dawna put together a short slideshow of some of the LOs the talented North Stars made using just the papers and the alphabet blocks:

 

Tomorrow is the first of September which means it is Super Saturday at Scraps N Pieces! Don't miss the big savings! True North Scraps has 3 products in the sale: Pick up one of Dawna's clever Dated and Stapled packs. Both are only $1 on September 1st!

Also available for a ridiculously low price tomorrow is the very popular Move It Move It, on sale for $2 only on Super Saturday.

Scrap It to Win It is just around the corner! Have you signed up yet? You must be signed up by Sept 1 or you can't play, and let me tell you, the prizes are amazing so you definitely want to play! True North Scraps is one of several SNP designers donating prizes to this contest.

Surprises: You just never know.... oh what the heck! I'll let the cat out of the bag! Several people have opened their private message inboxes at Scraps N Pieces to find a surprise -- One of the North Stars randomly sent a coupon to some of the people that have posted LOs in the TNS gallery. A couple more lucky people who have uploaded LOs to the TNS gallery, are still going to find a surprise RAK in their inboxes, so make sure you have uploaded there!

One last surprise - if you have been playing along with the Featured Designer games, hopefully one of the tasks you completed was to sign up for the True North Scraps Newsletter. If you were signed up before 4 pm Eastern yesterday, you will find a newsletter exclusive freebie in yesterday's newsletter! I hope you didn't miss out!

 Whew. My fingers are tired from typing all that out! However, I want to mention a couple more things.
