Hip Kit Club February News.

by Kimberly 22. February 2010 18:14

Hi Everyone. 
I can't believe that March is almost here.  All of our new CHA merchandise will start arriving in March and continue through April and May.  The first CHA product debut is being showcased in our February Hip Kit & Add-On Packs.  Our February Hip Kit & Add-On Packs will be ready for pick up or shipping on Friday, February 26th.  Trust me - they are worth the wait!

Hip Kit Club New Additions
I know that we all want and need different things from our kits.  Some of us want more embellishments, some of us wish that there was additional patterned paper while some of us would like more cardstock to stretch each kit a little further.  With this in mind, beginning with our February Kits we will be offering several different Add-On Packs that will allow you the option to make your Hip Kit everything your want and need it to be.  ;-D

Each Add-On Pack will be available in limited quantities.  When they are gone - they're gone.  If you are interested in reserving any Add-On Pack - just send me a quick email each month (
kimberly@hip2bsquarescrapbooking.com  )to get your name added to any Add-On Pack that you are interested in.
