Here in Missouri, the home of The Scrappy Gourmet, we've had a long winter and we are so ready for SPRING! Hopefully, April will bring the warm weather and sunshine we so desperately need. Jill's created a fresh, sunny altered book to make you feel like Spring is here, even if the weather isn't cooperating in your part of the world. I LOVE Jill's work and think you will too! Enjoy!

The Scrappy Gourmet has gone on Spring Break! That means that nobody's been in the kitchen and we need you to do the cooking! This month's kit is a delicious selection of treats for you to use and create something special to enter into our gallery. You may make as many creations using this kit as you like and enter them all by May 15. On May 20, we'll invite one lucky designer from the entries to be a guest designer for The Scrappy Gourmet! Our Executive Chefs will be looking for design elements, creativity and style. We only have 36 of these kits and when they're gone, that's it. So if you want to play, shop quickly! The April Spring Break Kit goes on sale at midnight (central time zone) on April 1 for $45.00. Good luck and have fun!

This week, we'd like to tempt you with 30% off MSRP on all BASIC GREY PAPERS!!! We carry several of their collections - Figgy Pudding, Fruitcake, Stella Ruby, Recess, Infuse, Mellow, Phoebe, Periphery, Scarlet's Letter, Blush and a few Skate Shoppe papers. There's sure to be something for everyone!
