Chic Newz for September

hey girlzzzzzzzzzzz...
So this is probably going to be a PRETTY long blog...so get comfy! :)

First things first...as many of you know...I decided after being alone in the CHIC BIZ for over a year by myself....to get a bizness partner.....her name is Tiffany Scott...SHE ROCKS...totally creative and a VERY ORGANIZED person (WOHOO..the chic shop needs it ) She has done AMAZING things in the back already....The Chic Chick Crop Shack is looking SUPER...we are also doing major work on the very back back for our kids...so they can have a little home away from home when mommy is working! Tiff is such a NEAT chick..I know that y'all are going to LOVE HER! She is an ADVISOR with TLC and has made some COOL COOL stuff with the program...so you can visit her website at www.topline-creations.com/scrappichic her calendar is on the site...IT IS AWESOME! So YEAH for both of US....it has been SO MUCH FUN so far! We are having a BLAST...and she is whipping me into shape (orgainzation wise :)

TLC NEWS...

as many of you know....we are LOVING the Digital Software up here at this little chic shop...the quick pages are SOO fun and a book can be created SUPER fast and they turn out JUST PRECIOUS...The Digital Software that we sell up here...LIFETIMEZ (I got it right this time) is being discontinued as of September 30th...they are branching out and going another direction...LIFETIMEZ ONLINE...so with that said...the software will be available for demos and purchase until the 30th of this month...many of you have seen the MAGIC that this program can do...it is AWESOME....IF you are my consultant...I will still offer you support and guidance on the digi software...the software is NOT going to be obselete and is JUST THE COOLEST...I really would LOVE to show you if you haven't seen it yet, the versatility of the program....the books that you can create with it turn out JUST BEAUTIFUL..but that is not all you can do with it....we have made nametags, postcards, birth announcements, calendars, newsletters, recipe cards, etc......the possibilties are ENDLESS....I would LOVE to show you the program if you haven't seen it yet, or if you have seen it and are still on the fence...THIS IS IT...I hate to say it that way, but it is....Top Line has told us that they will continue to support the existing software by creating the weekly downloads..WHICH ROCK available in both quick pages and also in the elements (pieces to create your projects from scratch)

so...the program is $49.99 and I have a few left at the store...OR you can always still sign up until the end of the month as a consultant...with NO PRESSURE to sell and meet monthly quotas...just $25 every 90 days (who doesn't wipe that out in one trip to the scrapbook store :)
and that price is $79.99 and that includes the program, a free 8x8 book and a $30 retail coupon...pretty cool...and then after that you get 25% off of your purchases as a consultant

I LOVE this program....I really want y'all to see that great things that you can make with it..so drop on by and check it out....
