Free Tear Bear Eyes and Nose Cutting File

Well girls, you finally broke me.  I've spent a lot of time figuring out how to convert my file into usable formats for many cutting machine and software out there on the market.  Our Senior DT Member Patricia has been testing out my svg files over the past few nights.  Many of you have asked for clothes for your bears and I am happy to say that so far testing has gone VERY well and it looks like our sister site should be up and running by the end of the month.

In the meantime, I have created my Tear Bear eyes and noses pattern for our Traditional Teddy in svg, wpc, dxf, gsd, ai, pdf, jpg, and eps.  This file is available for FREE for a limited time.  You can download the file HERE.  Since this is my first public file, we haven't had any testing on dxf or gsd files, so you feedback is of the utmost importance.  Once I am confident of this file, we will be removing the pre-cuts from our website.  My kids have lost interest in packaging these and I simply do not have the time to do it any longer.

Get this FREE file while you can.  It is only available for a limited time and will be removed without notice.

Until Next Time!

Beary Sweet Challenge #27 is up...

Hello Beary Sweet Friends.  Happy JUNE!  One more day until my kids are done with school.  They don't go back until September 12, tentatively.  Our district is building a brand new high school and will be tearing down the old one right after school is out.  Hopefully the new school is complete on time so the kids aren't going back in October.  It's going to be a VERY long summer.

Welcome to our Beary Sweet Challenge #27 is up and running on the Challenge Blog

Locals, Please Help Find Molly

Hello Beary Sweet Friends.  I'm here today with an special request for our local friends.  My dear friend from high school, Sherri, has lost her precious pup Molly.  Molly holds a very special place in her heart and is sick over her disappearance.

Molly was last seen near Frances Slocum State Park (Pennsylvania).  This was almost three weeks ago, so she can be anywhere now.  That was almost three weeks ago. She is all white and weighs about 13lbs. She had on a purple and white collar with tags and answers to Molly.   We are all hoping that someone has found her, and she is safe.  We are praying that someone will return her to her rightful owner.

Here are some pictures of Molly and her buddy Splash.

 

If anyone has seen Molly or has any information about her whereabouts, please email me at kimm@thebearyscrap.com.  Any help in bringing Molly back home is greatly appreciated.

Until Next Time

Coming Soon: Belles 'n Whistles Stamps

Hello Beary Sweet Friends!  You've been keeping me very busy with our "Spring Cleaning Sale" (aka, overhaul).  There was little time last night to add more goodies to our clearance section, but I promise I will be back at it tonight.  I have the next round ready.  I won't be starting it until after I finish pack up all of today's order for tomorrow first shipment.  I can't Thank You enough for helping us clean.  Who ever thought Cleaning could be so much FUN!   I'm sending you all BIG Cyber HUGS! 

I am so excited to bring you more good news today.  New images illustrated by the ever so talented Elizabeth Bell from Belles 'n Whistles Stamps are on their way!

I love these images... then again, I love anything Elizabeth Bell creates.  I have collected dozens of Elizabeth Bell stamps over the years.  Sadly, many of them have yet to get acquainted with an ink pad.  I'm sure I'm going to have dozens more that will need a formal introduction.

I anticipate both the SweetArt Girls Collection and the Fairy Friends Collection to arrive by Monday, May 16.  You can pre-order them HERE.

Here is a quick peak at some of these adorable images.  Visit our website to view the entire collections:

Fairy Friends - Garden Friends

Spring Cleaning SALE!

Hello Beary Sweet Friends!  I hope you all had a fabulous Mother's Day.  I awoke to flowers on the kitchen table, handmade cards and a fresh cup of java courtesy of my 3 little munchkins.  We spent the day doing "the usual" stuff, getting caught up on some housework and laundry, hubby cut the grass and then we celebrated my nephew's 1st Birthday.  Not all that exciting here, but the fresh cup of coffee made by my kids was the best cup of coffee in the world!  Since Sunday, they have been making me coffee every morning!  What a treat :)

Now that Spring is officially here, it is time for some serious Spring Cleaning.  I prefer to use the word OVERHAUL in this instance!  My office is overwhelmed with crafty goodness everywhere to the point I have a small pathway that leads to my desk.  Not to mention I have no place to craft besides my dining room table.  Hubby sure would like to see my crafty stuff back in my office where it belongs.

This is just the start of it.  If you follow us on facebook you will know what I've just added to the clearance section as I update each product line's inventory and reassign the items to our clearance section.  I will be adding lots more goodies every evening.  This is by far the BIGGEST SALE I have ever done.

Visit our website HERE.  I have a running list on the homepage of the most recent categories that are on liquidation.  You can also browse through our Clearance Department HERE as some items will only be found in the there.

One thing you should keep in mind when shopping on our website:  Out of stock items may occur as inventory is reduced.  Please keep in mind that just because an item is in your cart, it does not mean it is yours just yet.  Inventory is not reduced from our website until after checkout is completed.  Another shopper may pick up the same item and check out before you.  When this happens, we will issue you a refund or a store credit for the out of stock item.  To be fair, all orders are filled by order number on a first come, first serve basis.

Until next time,
