Shop Our September “SALE” While You Still Can!

Posted on September 26, 2023September 26, 2023 by Creative Memories

September flew by faster than a 12-inch Trimmer Blade gliding through designer paper… but not without some deals! Get in on these goodies (and great discounted prices!) by Oct. 2 or while supplies last! It’s time to drop it, shop it and crop it like it’s hot!

Remember: You’re going to want to be sure and bookmark the Sale page because it’s refreshed regularly with current products that are discounted for a period of approximately 30 days at a time — or until they sell through.

If you haven’t already seen the September additions, sneak a peek at them below, then check out the projects to get inspiration on how you can use these discounted products in your scrapbooks! This is a great time to shop our stash and make these must-haves yours!

Note: Not all products used in the projects are still in stock. The projects are for getting ideas on how you can use the discounted products.
