September Kit!

Color Whimsy, the new kit for September is now on sale over at Color Me Miki!

It has colorful papers from Prima, Sassafras Lass and Fancy Pants, along with embellishments perfect for capturing those fanciful and fun moments with your kids and loved ones!

This month also marks the last month Deb will be guest designing with us. I am so honored that she was able to work with us these last few months. She is so talented, and it was great working with her! Thank you Deb!!

Here is one of her layouts using the September kit.


Here is cute layout from Erin:


And this one is from Em:



Just a note ... if you use Kokuyo adhesive, I have heard through the grapevine that they will no longer be making adhesive! I can't believe it! I really like their tape roller. So, if you use their tape, you may want to start stocking up before they disappear forever from the store shelves! I still have a few rolls available in the Miki-Mart.

Have a great week everyone!

Does Not Compute

Here is a layout done using the mini-kit from August, Does Not Compute:


I love metallic sticker letters from Prima! They are not pink, that is just a reflection from the shirt I was wearing when I snapped the picture.

Come back tomorrow for a look at September's kit!

Night!

We are back!

Hello Everyone! We are back from our travels. It was so much fun, but we are glad to be back home. Getting over the jet lag was tough because of the time difference (16 hours). I picked up a couple of goodies that you will see in future kits! ;) All orders that were placed while we were gone have shipped. Thank you!

The September kit release is coming up very soon! Here is a layout peek from Ms. Erin ...


See you all on the 31st!

Just Checking In ....

Hello everyone!

Our little holiday is almost over and we'll be home soon! I checked with home base, and there are boxes of new CHA goodies waiting for us when we get back! I can't wait to see what has arrived! All orders placed while we were gone will be shipped out on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, here is another peek of the Sept. kit. This is a card made by Deb.


See you all soon!

It's the 15th!

Time for a little peek! September's kit is a full little whimsical kit. Here are a few samples from Deb ...





September will be Deb's last month with us as a guest designer. I am so glad she was with us, even if it was for such a short time. She is very talented and I look forward to seeing more of her work in the future.

We Will Be on Vacation!

We are leaving for a little holiday tomorrow morning. So, that means Em and Erin will be in charge while we are away ... Oh No! While the cat is away the mice will play! Any orders received in the next two weeks will be shipped out starting again on August 26th.

You will still get your sneak peek on the 15th. That's already all scheduled. And maybe Em and Erin will pop in now and then to entertain you all.

I am going to try and blog while I am away. No promises, but you can follow our travels on my personal blog, Wasting Time.

Jaa mata!

Claudine Hellmuth and Tim Holtz

I was reading Claudine Hellmuth's blog and she has posted two new videos from the Summer CHA. In this first one, she demos a transfer technique using her line of paints:


And then in this one, she makes a cool pendant using a resist technique:


And here is a card I made with her paints. I love the quality of her paints. They are very creamy with a lot of pigment.


I sell all of her products. You can find them in the Miki-Mart. Here is a direct link.

I also have some new Tim Holtz products in the shop ... the tiny attacher, the refillable alcohol pens, and some of his new distress stickles. Click here to find them.

PAYPAL ISSUES **Please read**

If you have recently ordered from us and your Paypal receipt has a date of 12/31/1969 and the transaction id# is 0, your order did not go through. There are some system errors at Paypal and they have told us they are working on it but they do not know when this issue will be fixed. This is not a problem just for us, as there are other sellers having this same problem.

The majority of the Paypal transactions do go through with no problems. But for some unknown reason a few get subjected to this glitch.

If you do receive a Paypal receipt with a date of 12/31/1969, send your order in an email to terri at colormemiki.com and we will send you an invoice.

We am so sorry for this inconvenience and we hope Paypal can resolve it soon!
