Friday Release with Freebie

The day has finally come when Neverland Scraps Store goes live at ScrapMatters!

Neverland Scraps has been working really hard to create a unique kit to scrap the upcoming holiday.  No, Im not talking about Thanksgiving or Christmas.  Im talking Black Friday!!  Just what is Black Friday?  It is the first Friday after Thanksgiving and generally starts the Christmas Shopping Season.  Black Friday also got its name as it is the time of the year when stores go from red (negative profit) to black (profit) giving this first day of "Christmas Shopping" the title of Black Friday! 

If you have never gone out the day after Thanksgiving, you do not know what you are missing.  Each year I seem to be getting up earlier and earlier to go stand in line for hours on end.  Last year, I woke up at 2:30 am and stood in line at Best Buy for two and a half hours.  It was cold, at one point it was snowing.  But the chatter of the people in line, the excitement and anticipation if you are going to get the product, its all worth it in the end when you come home with those hot items!

To celebrate Black Friday, Neverland Scraps created a kit called Black Friday

Of course you can't have a kit without a matching alpha, so Neverland Scraps created Black Friday Alpha:

But the goodies dont stop there! 

Neverland Scraps announced in yesterday's blog post that she was planning to release her first ever Grab Bag!   Such exciting things are inside this grab bag.  There are two full-sized Disney-inspired kits, two Disney-inspired alphas as well as two duo Pixie Plates!

But hurry, this grab bag is only going to be $4.00 Friday November 6 through Wednesday, November 11 as it will be revealed and sold at full-price on Thursday November 12!  I dont want you to be like me when it comes to grab bags, kicking myself after they are revealed, wishing I had gotten it when it was super cheap!

Do you want to know what is inside? 

Neverland Scraps is not revealing the bag, but Grab Bags Revealed Blog just revealed the grab bag! 

You can see the reveal here on the Grab Bag Reveal Blog 

Lots of new products going into the store.  Make sure you stop by Neverland Scraps Store at ScrapMatters to pick up these goodies before they are gone when her guest spot is over at the end of this month!

I know, you are sad.  The post is over.  Well, I've got good news for you!  Neverland Scraps has a freebie for you!!  Oh wait!  Before I tell you about the freebie, make sure you head over to this blog post to read about how you can get a free Pixie Plate this month!

Okay, okay...I know, you want your freebie! Okay, Neverland Scraps used one of her Pixie Plates (Pixie Plate # 157) and created this beautiful Black Friday Quickpage for you.

Are you ready to get it?!  You can download Black Friday Quickpage here.  Make sure you drop a line and leave some love.  Oh yeah, this quickpage is only good for one week because next Friday it will be replaced with a new Friday Freebie when Neverland Scraps releases her products next week!!

Until next time . . . .

Sneak Peek Thursday

Has there really been a blog post every day this week?!  Its amazing.  I dont think that has ever happened since Neverland Scraps opened up her blog three years ago! 

Neverland Scraps hosted her first Speed Scrap yesterday.  It went awesome, couldn't ask for anything better!  There were twelve submissions, which is a good turn-out for a daytime Speed Scrap.  This is the layout that the rules were based from:

Credits:

Template- WM[Squared] Fabulously Negative

Kit- WM[Squared] Shabby Chic

The rules were simple, if you want to play along and challenge yourself on your next layout:

1. Your layout must have 2 or more photos, but no more than 5 photos. Your photos must have been taken within the past three months

2. You must either a Trick Or Treat on your layout. (please specify which you do/did)

What is a Trick or Treat?

Trick- Use things like the Saturday Special and do some sort of photo editing to your photos. You can add stroking around your photos, you can edit closed eyes, age the photo, etc

Treat- add your favorite element to the layout

3. Pick one solid paper and one pattern paper. Use only these two and overlap them to make your background.

4. Use an element that you normally would not use. Just dont hide that element in your layout, make sure it is clearly visable in plain sight. What is an element that you normally wouldn't use? It can be something that isn't your style like a doodle, bracket, flair, etc

5. Include one of each of following elements: stitching, string, more than one style of flowers and a brad(s) of some sort

6. Title your layout with a contrasting alpha of the solid background paper that you used in step . Like if you have a white background paper, use a contrasting black alpha. Or maybe you have a navy background, use the pop of white alpha to contrast the color.

7. Journal at least 5 complete sentences dating your layout within the journaling.

See that wasn't that hard.  There were no complaints, which is always a good thing!

Neverland Scraps is rejoicing.  Do you want to know why?
