Changes to the Blog

Hello everyone!

I just stopped by today to let you know a little tidbit of information that you should know. No sales or new releases from me (although you should look on Saturday, because Labor Day is coming up!)

This is mostly for people who receive my RSS feed from Google Reader or anything like that, but the rest of you will want to know this information as well.

You will no longer receive feeds from http://pixiemamadesigns.com/blog – please add http://pixiemamadesigns.com to your feed instead. I made a few changes to my blogs to make them both easier to post to, but this did have an effect on my RSS feed readers. You should know that adding http://pixiemamadesigns.com to your feed may also add my Creative Chaos (personal) blog to your feed as well. I’m a new user to Google Reader and I don’t have much experience in the RSS feed area so if it adds my personal blog to your feed and you don’t have an interest in it, I’m truly sorry! If it doesn’t however, please disregard this! (If you’re interested in adding my personal blog to your reader however, I’d be extremely thrilled – http://pixiemamadesigns.com/chaos – LOL!)

I don’t have time to do it tonight because I have more homework to do and a husband to pick up from work, but soon I will be adding a redirect to this page so that it will take you from http://pixiemamadesigns.com/blog to http://pixiemamadesigns.com. If you only read my blog through the feed, however, this will not make a difference to you at all.

So please, if you use a reader to access my feed, please add http://pixiemamadesigns.com to your feed because that is how I will be posting from now on. Thank you! :)

Coming soon!

Hey all! Another little update from me!

I don’t have anything new again today, but there will be a new release coming soon! Also my next release should be soon after that. I’m starting to get into the whole “groove” of my schedule so it’s starting to get much easier to do my homework and attend classes plus find some time to design. Now if I could fit laundry and cleaning house into all that, I’d qualify for a Super Mom title. :D

Also, I wanted to let you know…I don’t know if anyone who reads this blog reads my personal blog, but last time I posted I said I was making a post on my personal blog with a little bit about school and how it was going, but I got busy last weekend and I never did get to post that. But, there’s a very short post up on my blog now with a little update from me. Also if you’re curious, I’ll be making a more lengthy post this weekend with a little bit more about school and a little story of my son’s unfortunate little ER trip on Wednesday night. (Don’t worry, he’s fine – he’s got a bruise but he’s no worse for the wear, in fact he’s ornerier than he was before!) But more on that later this weekend (probably tomorrow) on my personal blog!

I wanted to let you know that sometime next week (not sure when yet) there will be a freebie on this blog. It will be a great addition to any school pages you have going on – also, if you’re a newsletter subscriber, I will finally be sending out a newsletter next weekend and it will include a newsletter subscriber only freebie to match the blog freebie. Also, they will both be a good addition to the new release that I will have coming out, probably next Friday. So definitely be on the lookout – sign up for my newsletter to have the chance to get both freebies – and I’ll probably be throwing a couple of coupons out sometime this weekend and next weekend, so make sure to follow me on Twitter and Facebook!

Also, I’m trying to find some time to fit in a major blog makeover and possibly a logo change – so if you come back anytime later and stuff is all jumbled, keep that in mind and bear with me! I hope I can make the process as clean and simple as possible, but we might have a few little snags along the way!

That’s all from me – I will try to fit some time in on Monday or Tuesday to come back with a sneak peek (if I get to release it next weekend) and my usual contest!

A little update!

Hello everyone!

I don’t have anything new to offer you today (well, except all old news by now) but I did want to drop in to update you all a little on my first week of school and how things are going.

I won’t go into too much detail because, well you all have busy lives to get back to and don’t want to hear about my boring one lol, but my first week of school was fantastic! Monday and Tuesday were orientation days for me – going to different speakers and learning more about the security on campus, dormitories (which of course, I’m not using), financial aid, student governments, and just your general College 101 stuff that new freshmen need to know. Wednesday I started my actual classes – what a culture shock for me! It’s so much different from high school, which I expected to a degree of course but nothing like this!

Anyway, if you’re interested in reading more, I’m going to be making a post at my personal blog tonight about my first week of school, so I won’t bore those that aren’t interested, and those who are you can look for that later tonight.

With my first week of school came a moderately-sized pile of homework and a huge pile of sore bones and “I Just Want To Lay Here On This Couch And Die” syndrome lol, so I haven’t been able to work on a thing this week, and thus no new releases. However, I do plan to have one soon because I’m working on it today, and I hope to be able to finish it up. Now whether soon means it will come together smoothly and be out Friday, or whether soon means it will take me another two weeks to finish and get up or a month before it releases, I do not know. I haven’t found that “groove” yet that allows me to do homework effortlessly and then have 4 or 5 hours a night to cook and clean up and do some designing – does that even exist or is this just a case of wishful thinking? Anyway, I will let you guys know when it does release!

Before I go entirely, don’t forget – my Back 2 School sale is still going on at Scrappity-Doo-Dah!

Also don’t forget that I still have my retiring sale going on – there’s 10 days left and on September 1st, all these items will be going into the retirement vault to either be redone dramatically or forgotten forever! You can get each item for 50% off or the entire bundle for only $10!

You can find the link to my store above, right below the header of the blog!

For those of you who are newsletter subscribers, I said there would be a newsletter this week but there’s just not enough good content to warrant sending out a newsletter. I’ve sent out a newsletter about my sale and retirement sale before and since there’s nothing new to talk about, another newsletter would just be spam. So hopefully in another two weeks, I will have something a little more interesting so I can send out a newsletter!

I must head out so I can grab another cup of coffee and get to work. Happy scrapping!

New Release – RAWR!

Do you ever feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day? (Do I really need to ask? LOL) I have about a week and a half before school starts for me, and I’ve procrastinated so many projects that I wanted to get done before I get too busy to do them.

I did get this project done though! I have a new release today at Scrappity-Doo-Dah, and I think it will make a splash! (Sorry, I couldn’t resist!)

New at Scrappity-Doo-Dah today is Sea Monster!

Little ones really love to splash and goof around in the tub!

If you have a little one like me who loves to splash, be silly, and pretend he’s a fish or a sea monster in the tub, this kit is perfect for you. With 14 wonderfully textured papers and over 36 fun elements, you’ll be able to scrap all those bathtime moments!

This kit is really adorable and will be perfect to scrap those bath pictures. Just look at what some of my Pixie Chicks did with it!

My favorite part by far is the bubbles, I just love them!

I also have a few matching pieces!

Here’s a few close-ups of the kit:

Every piece is 25% off all month long because of my Back 2 School sale. Have you heard yet?

My store (almost all of it) is 25% off all month long to celebrate my return to college to further my education. All my PU/S4H/S4O products are on sale, including all new releases that come out this month, and also all my CU! Some collabs are not on sale, and my retiring items and retirement bundle are not included because they are already on sale. It’s a fantastic time to stock up for when the kids go back to school and you have more time to scrap!

Even better – for a limited time, when you buy Sea Monster the kit, you get Sea Monster the alphas free with your purchase! You must add both products to your cart for the discount to take effect!

Earlier this week I posted a sneak peek of the kit with a contest to win it. There wasn’t much interest – maybe everyone’s on vacation before school starts? – anyway there was only one commentor so Michelle wins a free copy of Sea Monster (and the matching alphas). Congrats Michelle!

I want to take the time here to make a statement about how my going back to school might affect my designing.

First of all, I want to thank everyone who’s recently purchased from me, and my past customers who are still with me. I appreciate every single one of you, and thank you for your patronage!

The 16th is my first day of college. I graduated high school and went right into the working world, and before I ever got a chance to go back to school, I got married and had my son, so time and money kept me from going back. Recently my husband convinced me (almost begged me in fact) to apply for a federal grant and financial aid at the local community college. I did and to my surprise, a few weeks later, I was enrolling in classes and I received a full scholarship for books and tuition plus my grant. I’ve already bought all my supplies, picked up all my books, and received some much appreciated “congratulations” gifts from my family (my new laptop, new cell phone, new school clothes…yes, I love my family…).

Unfortunately (or fortunately, whichever way you look at it) I have an extremely busy schedule – six classes (not every day) and 18 credit hours. Add in homework every day, taking care of a house, and taking care of my son, and my computer time will be pretty limited. My designing time will take a dramatic cut. I hope you’ll be patient with me as I go through this very new stage in my life. I may not have new products for weeks or months as I go through school, with homework and tests and taking care of my family.

However, I do hope to keep up enough to have something new every once in a while. I just don’t know how busy I will be and how limited my designing time will be. I am working on 2 new kits currently, and planning for a third, and by the time I finish those the holidays will be coming up, so I hope to not keep you waiting!

It’s time to get to work – I have a ton of stuff to do – my house needs to be cleaned and laundry done before I head off to classes, because I won’t have as much time to do it after I start. After that’s all done I can finally get to work on this new kit (you’re gonna love it!).

My next newsletter will go out tomorrow morning and I always put a little something special in my newsletter for my subscribers, be it a freebie or a special coupon. You can sign up here to get in on the action, you never know what you may get!

Happy scrapping everyone!

Sale, challenges, and sneak peek (win)!

Edit: This contest now closed! Winners announced Friday morning!

Wow, it’s been CRAZY around here! This week is all about catching my breath, playing catch up, and fitting in a little design time! This weekend my uncle from Colorado was in town. You can read more about that at my personal blog, but whenever my uncle comes into town, it’s all about food, family, chatting, and having a lot of fun. It’s a lot like Christmas but without all the snow and Christmas trees and Christmas spirit – there are even gifts!

As many people may know (because I’ve sort of “bragged” about it enough around digi-land lol), two weeks from yesterday I will be attending my first class in my freshman year of college. Actually, my first real class is two weeks from tomorrow (Wednesday) but I have Freshman Orientation on Monday the 16th and Tuesday the 17th at 8AM. I’ve been hurriedly getting ready – getting my school supplies, packing up my backpack, gathering my books, paying my fees, and waiting for Heath’s bonus check from work so I could get a brand new laptop and new phone. Because my laptop is really a poor excuse for a laptop – it’s old, it’s in bad shape, and just doesn’t have the capabilities to do what I need it to do. I had picked out my laptop just a few weeks ago and I was just waiting to get the check so I could purchase it – to my surprise, the day my uncle left he walked in with the exact laptop that I had picked out. It was his little way of saying, “I’m very proud of you for going back to college and I want you to succeed.” My family isn’t too good with saying emotional things, like “I’m proud of you,” sometimes. I was floored! I’m so happy with my new laptop – this is the laptop that I own now, and yes, it’s purple! Perfect for Pixiemama, don’t you think? :D

Anyway, so I’ve been installing all my programs onto the new laptop and getting it ready to try out designing on it. It’s going to take a while, but I can’t wait to try her out and see how she does! I also had a day full of errands yesterday, I had to be up at the college at 8AM to pick up my books (I’m about 40 pounds heavier with books and $30 lighter, plus I still have more books to pick up – yikes!!!), then after my uncle left to travel back to Colorado and I picked Heath up from work we headed to the store to pick up my new phone. It was an awesome day filled with new techie-toys for me!

I have a lot of awesome new stuffs to show you today.

First, it’s August now and that means time for a new Scrappity-Doo-Dah Grab Bag! Have you checked out the August Grab Bag? It’s only $2.99 and it’s filled with some awesome goodies. It includes both PU and CU stuff, so it’s perfect for anyone! I contributed this month, and I have to say I love this kit!

And here are my contributions!

Joy {For Joyanna} was created and inspired by the birth of my CTM Crystal’s new little baby girl, Joyanna! Crystal is a fantastic photographer and I’m sure you’ve seen her around the digi-world once or twice. Here is a layout that she created with Joy!

You can head to my designer gallery at Scrappity-Doo-Dah to see even more of my wonderful CT’s layouts using Joy and many more products!

Also, as I noted above, I’m headed back to school in two weeks and I’m so excited about it that I’m having a sale!

You can get (almost) all my store for 25% off through the rest of the month! All PU/CU/S4H/S4O products are included except some collabs, retiring items (at 50% off already) and my retirement bundle (at a super discount price already)! Head on over to my store where you can stock up before the kids head back to school, because it’s a great deal!

This month I’m doing the ad challenge all by myself – my faithful comrade Jaya had a family emergency suddenly and she will be in her home country of India for the entire month of August. Please say a few prayers and keep her in your good thoughts, her mother-in-law is very ill and she definitely needs the well wishes!

The newest ad challenge is up at SDD. For the first part of the month I’m focusing on taking inspiration from the color palettes of ads – I’ve even included a color palette that you can save to your computer to easily choose your two colors, and choose your kits! Here’s a little peek:

You can find the ad challenge here at SDD!

Before I head out, I have a little sneak peek of what’s coming your way this Friday at SDD!

If you can guess the name of this kit, you could win it! All entries will be eligible to win the kit, right or wrong answer! There’s also two matching pieces that will be available for purchase Friday:

I’ll give you one hint, and one hint only for the name of the kit. It’s a toughie! Ready?

Your hint: RAWR!

Post your guesses in the comments section here to win! You may only guess once, and all subsequent guesses will be thrown out. You are welcome to tweet about the contest, but tweeting will not increase your chances to win. One lucky winner will win a free copy of the kit (only). Winner will be chosen Friday morning and will be notified by email!

I look forward to all your guesses! Also I will be sending out a newsletter sometime on Saturday – there may be a little freebie in there for you! You can go ahead and sign up here!

I have to head out – more programs to install and then I want to get to designing some stuff on my new laptop! Have a great day everyone and come back Friday for the reveal of the kit!

Big City Girl…

This will be a fairly short post from me today. I’ll be out for the vast majority of the day. I have to stop at the college to pick up another copy of my book list and schedule, because I’m a ditz and I’ve already lost mine. You know that saying “I’d lose my head if it weren’t screwed to my shoulders”? Yep, that’s me lol. Then after that we’re going out for a family sort of day – we’re going to stop by the zoo and see the new baby tigers (or hopefully see them) and we’re going to go window shopping – I work an average of 12 hours a day designing or doing something design-related, 5-6 days a week, so I definitely need to get out!

I have a new kit for you today and the winners from the sneak peek that I posted on Monday!

New in store today is Brooklyn. Brooklyn was inspired by my CT member Brooklyn – you might know her as bdances, bballets, or just simply Brandy’s daughter lol. (No kidding, I was at a speed scrap with her once and I was amazed at how many people knew her as “Brandy’s daughter”.) Brooklyn’s been with me since my days at Scrapable, from my second CT call. I urged her to join my team, because she had never been on a CT before and since I’m pretty lax in my requirements for my team, it was a good opportunity for her to learn the ropes. She’s now on several teams – she’s even on a team that I’m on, for RK Designs!

Anyway, I often encourage my CT to put in requests for kits – a lot of times they request kits that I’ve been meaning to do for a while now, and give me fun, fresh ideas to work with when I’m in a slump. Some of my favorite kits have been CT requests, like My Furry Friend (which, after retirement and when I get time, I plan to remake because I wasn’t 100% satisfied with it). Brooklyn put in a request for a dance kit with the color of pink. Now, not being one to limit myself too much, and knowing almost nothing about dance because I have two left feet, I decided to go a bit more general, but I still wanted something she could use for dance photos because she does have some gorgeous ones.

It all of a sudden occurred to me one day that I should make a kit named Brooklyn, with a funky, edgy, city-girl-like twist – taking inspiration from Brooklyn, New York and all the savvy, smart, wonderfully great girls you can find in New York. And it fit perfectly not only because of the name, but because Brooklyn, even at 13 years old, is incredibly smart and sassy, but she’s also sweet and she has a funky little style that I love. And so Brooklyn – The Kit was born!

My CT and I had a ton of fun with this kit – the colors are just so bright that it will cheer up anyone’s day. And it’s just so versatile that you can use it for anything.

Created by myself using a template from Chrissy W.

Created by myself using a template by Pressed Petals. That’s one of my babies, Sassy – and her name definitely fits her! (Love the dirty look she’s giving me.)

Created by one of my newest CT members, Amy (NicKnight)!

Created by CTM Brooklyn. (See? Sassy!)

Both layouts created by CTM Jill!

Created by my CT leader, Missy! (That’s kinda what life is like living with my husband and son! LOL)

I also have the matching alpha and styles to go along with it!

For this weekend only, you can find every piece on 20% off. I’ll take it off sale Sunday night before I go to bed, so get it while you can!

You’ll remember on Monday I posted a sneak peek of the kit and matching pieces and held a contest – I changed it up a bit this time, asking you to tell me if you had a week in New York to do whatever you wanted to do (assuming money was no issue, I forgot to say), what would you do? Would you see the sights? Take in a show? Shop till you drop? If you’ve already been there, what’s your favorite thing about New York? If you wouldn’t go there (or live there already) where would you go instead?

You all gave me great responses! What would I do? Assuming money was no object (because I could never afford a trip to New York on designing salary! LOL) I would take in a Broadway show – I’d really love to see Annie, Cats, or Chicago. My dream Broadway show to see would be Moulin Rouge. I know they’re all pretty old, but those would be my top preferences! Also on the list would be to check out at least on museum, and of course I’d want to go to the top of the Statue of Liberty. The rest would probably be shopping! LOL

I randomly chose a winner out of all of you – now I have to be honest, I randomized it twice, because the first time it gave me the list in exactly the same order as I’d put it in lol. And it still chose the same person as number one!

Congrats Deanna! I’ll be emailing your coupon out right after I post this! And thank you to all of you – every single one of you tweeted my post (I follow Deanna on Twitter so I saw her tweet) so thanks so much for spreading the word! The rest of you will be receiving a coupon for an extra discount on Brooklyn so everyone’s a winner!

I’ll be sending out a newsletter to advertise Brooklyn and all the other things going on in Pixiemama world tomorrow, and there might just be a little somethin’ in there for everyone (or a big somethin’)! Just sayin’…you might want to sign up for it before tomorrow!

In the next few days I’ll be making a big announcement about some changes affecting me that will also affect my designs and the frequency of new releases, so please keep an eye on the blog so you know what’s going on!

Also if you haven’t checked it out, my retirement bundle is still on sale – 11 products for $10 and after it’s gone on August 31st, these products will never see the light of day again as they were first released. You can buy each product at 50% off it’s original price, but your best deal is the bundle – Each products comes out to about $1 a piece!

Off to finish things up around here so we can head out! Have a great weekend everyone!

Sneak peek and another chance to win!

Happy Monday all! Hope your week will be filled with fantastic things! :D

I was asked a few months ago by one of my CT members if I could create a kit – a specific kind of kit, she wanted something dance-related because she’s a dancer. She dabbles mostly in ballet, but a bit in other genres of dance also.

Rather than do a specific dance themed kit that only certain scrappers could use, I decided to gravitate more towards a general kit. And then something clicked in my head.

It took me a while but it’s finally ready to release this Friday at Scrappity-Doo-Dah! I present to you a sneaky peeky of my new kit, Brooklyn:

Brooklyn is about celebrating that city girl in your life. It has a big city flair with the neon lights and night life thrown in, but is down-to-earth enough to use for your sweet little country girl. Brooklyn was inspired by my very own Creative Team member, Brooklyn – she’s a sweet little Georgia peach with big city dreams!

I also have a couple of matching pieces to go with them!

I think you’ll really like this new collection – I even had a blast playing with it. Here’s a layout that I did, and I’ll have more to show you in my newsletter on Saturday!

You have a chance to win this kit! Comment here telling me what you would do if you were in the big city for one whole week – New York City. Would you spend the whole week shopping? Seeing all the sights? If you’ve been there already, tell me your favorite part of being there – was it the food? The people? All the sights? If you have no desire to go to New York City (or you live there LOL) – tell me where you’d rather go and what you’d rather do instead.

You can also be entered a second time if you use the button above this post to tweet about the sneak peeks and the contest! Please be patient and understanding with me – if you do tweet about it, please come back and leave another comment saying you’ve done so, because I’m not sure exactly how to see who’s tweeted yet! LOL

I’ll be back on Friday morning to choose a winner! Good luck everyone!

Twilight’s Last Gleaming!

Hello everyone! Hope you all had a fabulous Fourth of July weekend! We had a great weekend – my husband and I made red white and blue treats with our son, had a BBQ with my parents, and ended up getting rained out on the Fourth for our fireworks! We got a total of a little over 5 inches of rain the night of the Fourth, so we had to wait until the next day for the fireworks!

If you’re like me you have a ton of pictures from the Fourth to still scrap – and probably some from years past! Tiffany of Inspired by Dominic collaborated on a fab-u-lous new kit for all those Fourth of July pictures!

This collab kit (like most of mine and Tiffany’s LOL) is HUGE! With 25 Papers, 55 Unique Elements, and 23 Wordbits, it will make you many fabulous Fourth of July pages! We had quite a time making this – we got a very late start, and then Tiff fractured her ankle by tripping over some Tupperware her son was playing with, I was having a major mojo crisis – but we finished it and we both love it!

We also have several matching packs to go along with it!

Two wonderful alphas to match Twilight’s Last Gleaming! Both are full alphas with uppercase, lowercase, numbers and some symbols. I can tell you that Tiffany’s glittered alpha is BEAUTIFUL and such a joy to scrap with!

And of course, what would any Fourth of July kit be without some sparkle? The matching CU Glitter Styles can be found in both of our shops!

Also for all you Twilight fans out there (yep, I said it!) – we have a matching add-on that will turn Twilight’s Last Gleaming into the perfect kit to scrap your little Twilight obsession with!

This mini kit was a former participation prize at our Twilight Speed Scrap/Chat so check your stash before you purchase! We used the same color palette in Twilight’s Last Gleaming to make the perfect Twilight-themed mini kit – how’d we do that? That’s our secret and the magic of why we work so well together. ;) But don’t fret if you’re not a Twilight fan/scrapper – this kit will also be perfect for any romantic photos you have lying around of you and your significant other.

The best part is that EVERYTHING – including the mini collab – is on sale for 25% off until the 18th when Tiffany gets back from her Canada vacation!

I got the chance to make a couple of layouts using Twilight’s Last Gleaming yesterday – I’m in love!

These are pictures of me and my little family’s Fourth of July celebrations! Isaac actually had the guts to pop off some minor little fireworks this year – he’s doing champagne bottles in these photos with my uncle – love the last picture on the right where he’s preparing for the noise that it makes!

I did this layout for my and JayaPrem’s Hangout’s Ad Challenge at Scrappity-Doo-Dah – this is why I <3 <3 <3 my Canon EOS Rebel XSi! It was super easy to take these shots – I set up my dad’s tripod (because I can’t find mine, surprise surprise), set it to a low shutter speed, set up my position when the first fireworks started, and just stood there pressing the button while I watched the fireworks for myself. Took me a total of five minutes and I only missed about 2 minutes of the first fireworks. That’s also how I ended up with almost 800 fireworks pictures that I had to weed through! LOL

Those are the sum total of all my Fourth pictures to scrap, but I love all of them so much that I’ll definitely be scrapping more of them – plus I have to use up all those fabulous Fourth of July kits on the scene this year!

Also, Tiffany and I held a contest to help name the collab because we were having a bit of trouble with that one – the winners were announced days ago but congrats to rebecca_lovell and amy! – they both came up with similar names so they both won the collab!

Congrats Rebecca and Amy!

AND…I realized the other day that it’s about time to start clearing out my shop of the old and start bringing in the new! So far this summer has been really busy for me, so I haven’t had much in the way of new releases. But I have plans to change that! I have some in progress releases up my sleeve so I have to make room for wonderful new fabulousness coming this Fall!

I have a total of ELEVEN products retiring come August 1st – you can buy each one seperately at 50% off their regular prices, or you can buy the whole bundle of eleven products for only $10! All your downloads are available immediately after your purchase – you don’t have to wait for an email or a coupon code, or make two separate purchases to get your products. However, no coupons are allowed on this purchase! Come August 1st, these products will be locked away and never see the light of day again, so pick them up while you can!

That’s all from me today. Happy scrapping everyone!

Choo Choo! (Two Freebies!)

Yes, it’s that time again – time for another blog train! :D

I’m not posting the slideshow – I know that you all enjoy it, but it makes everything run so slow and when you’re trying to enjoy a train this large, who needs a slow computer? By now, you should all know what you’re getting anyway, right? :D

This month we’ve chosen Picnic In The Park as our theme!

Here’s what you’re getting from me today!

I had a ton of fun working with this color palette and the rest of the designer’s pieces are just gorgeous!

Download here!

You should have come from Moon Designs Blog and your next stop will be Just Jaimee. There are a lot of designers in this blog train so if you get lost, you can always go to the Blog Train Blog to get back on track!

Also, if you’re interested, my best friend Tiffany (who also participated in this blog train) is guesting at Scrapbook-Bytes this month! She has a special exclusive kit that is only available at Scrapbook-Bytes right now!

I created two pages with this kit, I just LOVED it!

The second layout I created I also made into a quickpage, which you can download for free at my personal blog in celebration of Tiff’s guest spot!

Also, don’t forget that Tiffany and I are holding a contest – we have a new collab coming out and we’re having a difficult time naming it, and we want your help! The winner whose name we choose wins the kit for free! Go here for details!

Have a great day everyone!
