IT’S NSD!!!!

It’s NSD weekend once more and boy am I sleepy! :) Shall we get to the magic?

There’s so much stuff going on at The Lilypad this weekend – games, challenges, prizes, and of course – THE STOREWIDE SALE! You can find out about all of it by visiting our special NSD forum HERE

I’ve got a whole new collection in store and on sale! May 2017 BYOC is bright & bold and definitely one of my favorites.

Wink: Alphabets includes a dainty little collection of floral, shimmer, and solid plastic alphabets
Wink: Sticky Tape includes 14 BRIGHT bits of transparent tape (my favorite tape. ever.)
Wink: Journal Cards includes a fancy collection of 3×4 & 4×6 pocket cards with lots of alternates.
Wink: Extras Trio includes the alphabet, tape, and cards for one itty bitty price!

Wink: Elements includes a huge variety of 85+ embellishments to decorate your pages with
Wink: Pockets includes a set of patterned pocket fronts & backs to mix and match. Also included? All the hybrid files – patterned blocks for printing and cut files for cutting!
Wink: Patterns & Backgrounds is a hefty collection of bold and happy papers, including 23 alternate color ways!

NSD means it’s time for a new SUPER SPECIAL MINI BUNDLE!!!! SSMB 4.0 includes 30 various packs of all sorts of things. Many of them never before released! This year’s bundle includes a variety of elements, alphabets, papers, and minis – some past freebies, some leftover parts from kits – there’s even 2 full sets of previously unreleased For the Love of 2016 paper packs!

Also back for the weekend are SUPER SPECIAL MINI BUNDLES 1 – 3!

Grab them up now for just $2 – they’ll disappear again when NSD is over. :)

Speaking of leftover bits…. I’ve got a couple of elements, papers, and an entire alphabet that didn’t make it, as well as an entire pack of solids that I forgot to upload :) GRAB THEM HERE

And if you’ve made it this far, you deserve to be rewarded…. here’s a coupon code good for an extra 10% off orders over $5 good today and tomorrow – 10OVER5

*UPDATE – the above coupon will not work for MPM add-ons. They are entered into the store differently so here goes (it’s overly complicated but I have no way around it – sorry!)

FOR MY FLING ADD-ONS: XTRA10-FLING

FOR ADD-ONS PRIOR TO FLING: XTRA10-MPMNSD

If you are trying to purchase a FLING add-on AND an add-on from an earlier collection you’ll have to check out separately. Because of that, I’ve removed the minimum purchase amount from the MPM coupons.

#MARCHSTUFF + Retiring toooooons of product!

It’s me!! I’m turning up to tell you all the things! Are you ready? Are you sure?

IT’S #MARCHSTUFF TIME!!!! March Stuff includes tons of paper and tons of elements. Simple as that. There’s lots not shown, too. Look for the extras on Wednesday!

If you haven’t noticed, I decided to mix For the Love of 2017 up a bit. I’ve gotten a couple emails asking why there’s no palette for the whole year – there is though! I picked a super perky rainbow and have pulled different groups each month. :)

You can find the year, so far, here

I’m retiring 69 products. I swear to you that was not on purpose. ;) I should tell you, I hate retiring products. Even old ones. These are all products I worked hard on and was excited to release. But it’s time. All 69 are 50% off throughout the sale… Here’s just a few:

So grab these babies while you can and don’t fret. I’ve got big plans in the coming months. XO

SOSN!!!!

Hi!!! I know! It’s been forever!! But I have one of my favorite Halloween collections on sale today and thought you should know. <3

I Put a Spell On You is just $3.50 today! This kit is possibly my favorite Halloween kit ever – the subdued palette and roughed up textures and tiny details just came together so well. I wish I could release it again for the first time!

You can also pick up the papers (included in the kit) and journal cards for 50% off today!

Last but not least for this weeks SOSN, Cliff Notes: Trick or Treat Edition is $2.00 today! With 270 spooky clips, words, and more this is a fantastic deal!

I realized the other day that I open my Lilypad store 5 years ago at the beginning of October. I can’t believe it – it’s flown by. I never dreamed I’d be able to work with such amazing designers and a kind and supportive owner. I could not be at a more inspiring store. Please enjoy this cute little TLP glitterbet. :)

And congrats to Neverland Scraps – I announced last weekend that I’d pick a winner from my Pick a Prize thread, myself, and her name was drawn!

Hope you had a fab DSD, see you soon! Allison
