A new direction. New beginnings. Biggest Sale EVER!!!..

It's a little long, but worth the read.  The Beary Scrap is changing.

Ever have one of those moments when you know there is something big missing from your life?  There is something out there that that you long to do, experience, or see.  Your mind will not quiet down.  You are in constant argumentative dialog with yourself but yet, you still can't figure it out. 

Then, one night while trying so desperately to fall asleep, you have that ah-ha moment!  In that moment, you are now wide awake staring at the clock that now says 4am wondering how in the world am I going to get to sleep and if I do, how will I get back up to take the kids to school.  You know what to do, you know what you are missing.  You are afraid if you don't go write it down or tell one of your friends half way around the world, you might forget.

I had that moment not too long ago.  What I realized:  There comes a time in a girl's journey when you need to spread your wings an fly. Let go of your fears.  Do what you have been longing to do.  Believe in yourself.  Let go and be you!

Many of you know that I have started creating my own stamp and washi tape line, along side of my acrylic pattern designs and my svg files that are available at ScraptasticalKreations.com under Beary Sweet Designs.  My epiphany that night... I miss creating.  I miss placing my mark in the world.  I don't get a lot of time to do it with kids, daily life, and business.  When I do have the time, I'm full steam ahead with it.  I love it, I do well with it, and the response from you, my customers, has always been beautiful.  This is what I've been missing, what I've been longing to continue doing, and fearing the next step...

It's time for me to move on past the trays of pretty papers and embellishments that we all love.  It's time for me to let go and embark on a new journey my inner spirit tells me I need to do.  It's time for me follow my dreams in this creative and crafty world.

I am liquidating every last stitch of all the pretty paper lines and coordinating embellishments from my store starting tonight. 

Every Paper Line is marked down 30% to 50%... clearance items are 50% or lower.  I will not be replacing any lines or bringing in any of the new lines that are coming out.

What does the future hold and where am I going?  Some questions you may have

Are you closing the website?

No.  The website will still be up and running for as long as I am in business.  The only thing that is changing is my product line.


Will you still carry Mulberry Paper?

Yes!  I WILL STILL carry my mulberry paper, that will not change.  I know how much my customers rely on my product.  It is what the business was founded on and I will always have it.  No, the website is not closing.

What about Tear Bear/Critter Patterns?

They are here to stay!  I have all intentions of getting my new designs cut, packaged and available for ordering as soon as I can.  Something many of you don't know is that my acrylic patterns are manufactured out of my home.  Designed, cut, printing and packaging all takes place here.  It's a timely process.  Our Creative tools are also handmade by me, and sometimes my husband, which is also a timely process.

Will you be getting in new Paper Lines?

As of right now, no.  In the near future, I plan on putting together scrapbook/card/daybook/smash kits that will be available to purchase on my website.  Kits will include custom stamps, die cuts, popular papers, embellishments and more at a reasonable price.  I hope to get back out in the creative world face to face with some classes too. :)

What can you expect?

1)  The same personal customer service from me.  I do my best to respond to every email in a timely fashion.  If you haven't heard back from me, please try again.  Filters on my email may have blocked your email from me recieving it.  When in doubt, send me a message through facebook from my fan page, or email me direct at kimm@thebearyscrap.com.

2) More Designed by Kimm stamps on a monthly basis.  Design suggestions are welcome

3) More Tear Bear Acrylic Patterns

4)  Specialized Paper Crafting kits in the future

5)  More of  my svg cutting files coming to Scraptastical Kreations.com

6)  More of my creative side and seeing me use my product in action.... and possibly a guest designer monthly or a design team.

As you can see... I have big plans.  The future is so bright, I've got to wear shades!  LOL.

I am focused and ready for the next chapter in this crafty world.  I hope that you will continue to support and follow me in my future journey.

Thank you for your business and continues support.  Here is to the future.

Cheers,

When the K&Co 365 Smash Folio arrived, I had several request about with the inside pages looked like.  Well, I cold sit a photograph all 40 pages, but that would take forever.  I finally put myself out there a made a youtube video on the displaying all the purty pages of this new smash book.  I really had fun making it... and I made a few other videos too.

Until next time.

So many new goodies, and more coming soon!

I've had a lot going on here since my last blog post.  Some things will never change, I'm still a horrible blogger - LOL.  Loads of NEW products have come into the store.  New paper lines, a new acrylic pattern, new stamps, new washi tape, new daybooks, and a new smash book.  I almost always announce everything on facebook, forgetting that not everyone is on facebook.  There are still some pretty avid blog readers, including myself.  Since facebook has made even more pitiful changes, page views are done and the number of followers a post reaches is declining.  This hold true for any page owner.  Stupid facebook!  I guess I should get better at blogging, right?  Right!  This could be a long post.

When I submit new designs for stamps, I'm so impatient.  The process seems to take so long from start to finish.  From the time the final draft is submitted, to getting samples in and shipped out to my friends for testing, then placing the order and deciding the quantities to the knock on  my door from the postman with 4 huge boxes full of 5 new designs.  It's an exciting process... but me... I'm impatient - LOL.

As you can see, I've change our stamp logo.  It's still not reflected on our packaging.  I'm still trying to decide if I'm going to change the name of our stamp line.  I really love the bright colors

5 new stamps!  Available HERE

My dear friend, and partner in crime, Cathy tested these cuties out for me.  Seriously, Cathy does some of the most beautiful work I have ever seen.  Want to see these cuties in action?  Head on over to Cathy's blog HERE and check it out.

NEW ACRYLIC TEAR BEAR CRITTER

Impatience.  I talked about that earlier.  As much as I keep reminding myself that "good things come to those who wait" it doesn't always sink in.  I'm sure that  most of you can agree.  For those of you that have been ever so patient with me, I hope it has been worth the wait.  If you missed the newsletter and you don't follow us on facebook you haven't seen my latest BSD Acrylic TB pattern.  Named by my 5 year old little Princess...  Please welcome Princess Unicorn to our TB Critter Family.
