Why buy a page kit?

It saves you so much time! The design process and the preparation have been
done for you. The paper has been selected and matched for you. All titles or die
cuts are pre-cut/hand stamped for you as well, saving you time. All you need is
scissors or a trimmer, glue/adhesive, and your pictures to complete the page.

What is a page kit?

A page kit is a 2 - page 12 x 12 layout that has already been designed. All the paper (no patterns-everything is pre-cut or hand stamped), embellishments, titles, instructions, and a picture of the completed layout packaged together in a clear envelope so everything is there when you need it. All you need is
scissors, glue and your pictures!

Do your page kits have patterns or is everything cut for me?

Everything is already pre-cut/hand stamped for you so you can get your layouts done quickly!

Why are the photo mats cut at 4 x 6, that doesn't leave me any room to mat my pictures?

To keep things simple and to keep cost down, we use an exact 4" x 6" (or other size). When creating your own page you can simply cut 1/4" off two sides of your photo giving you a perfect mat border on your photo.

Do I need any other tools?

All you really need is scissors or a trimmer, glue/adhesive and your pictures! Sometimes, but not always you may need colored pencils/markers or an eyelet setter to set an eyelet(s); ink/chalk or Stickles glitter glue if want to ink or enhance anything on the layout. Most of the time embellishments are fully stamped & colored...but there are some cases that you may need to color some in yourself with colored pencils/markers. You don't need ink/chalk or Stickles glitter glue, however it gives the layout that finished look. This is a
personal preference though. Some of the products I use & recommend are Tombo Mono Permanent Adhesive Dispenser; Chalk Box fluid chalk ink; Stampin’ Up stamp pads/markers; Stickles glitter glue.

When ordering I see the option "Assembled", what does that mean?

If you want me to put the kit together for you, I will. It adds $4 to the cost of the kit, but you will get the layout done and ready for you to put pictures on it. I will ink/chalk/stickle everything unless I get different instructions. It will come in a 12x12 clear envelope. The “Assembled” option adds 2 - 3 days to the ship date on your order unless you are part of the “Monthly Kit Club”.

Do I have to complete the page like it is pictured?

No, the picture that is included is just a guideline. You can follow the instructions exactly, or be as creative as you want and do your own thing! It's all up to you. Mix things up, use different size photos, and design it any way you want. Most important have fun and let your creative juices flow!

Are your page kits acid free?

Yes, all of kits are acid free.

Can you ship kits out monthly so I don't have to pay for shipping more than once?

Yes. See "Monthly Kit Club" for specifics.

If I'm local, can I pick my order up?

Yes, make sure you select "Pick Up" for your shipping method and send me an email to make arrangements to pick up your order. I am located in St. Louis, MO 63129. I will give you the details on pickup location when you contact me.

Can I suggest kit ideas?

Yes, if you have an idea for a kit that you would like to see, email me. I would love your suggestions & will refer to these ideas when designing the kits.
