Wow! June started off with a wacky first week here at The Scrappy Gourmet! As you probably already know, our site was down for several days due to an electical explosion with our server causing a fire and more than 6000 sites to go down. Fortunately, our server is out of Texas and we're in Missouri, so nothing was damaged here. Last week, we included a $5.00 off your purchase of $25.00 or more to express our gratitude for your patience. For those who haven't used the coupon yet, we have extended the expiration until the end of this week, June 15 at midnight. This is a one time use coupon per customer with the code: Thankyou5 and it can be used on anything including kits! For complete details, go to the coupon at the bottom of this newsletter.

And, speaking of kits, Executive Chef Darla Weber's "Always Remember" Clear Album is our June Featured Entree. Several of these beautiful kits are still available. If you haven't had a chance to play with a clear acryllic album yet, now's your chance! Darla also has another newly added kit to our Secret Recipes Albums Section called "Believe". It's a delightful holiday keepsake. We also have a new kit in our Secret Recipes Layouts Section designed with the teenager in mind. It's a double 2-page layout kit for only $15.00 called "Homecoming". The Beautiful Things kit by Jill Baldwin is back in stock. And finally, we have a fresh batch of last July's Featured Entree Kit "My Star" Layout and "Celebrate" Star Album designed by Executive Chef Jessica Kelly. This is a combo kit and a great value! Visit our site to view all of our projects.

New stuff! Yippee!!

Fun stuff!

BLING IS THE THING!! We all love it and everybody seems to be using it, so let's put it on sale! This week, we'd like to tempt you with 50% off MSRP on all Kaiser Craft Bling! We carry a multitude of colors in several different shapes including circles, squares, small flowers, and large flowers! Go get some!

Finally, we'd like to introduce you to a new section in our Secret Recipes called MAY WE SUGGEST. This is a place where we post layouts and projects and then list all the ingredients you need to create them, rather than packaging them as kits. We hope it will inspire you and show you how to use some of the products we carry. Check it out.
