January 28, 2009

This month has just sped by, hasn’t it? It’s hard to believe that February is just around the corner. There are just a few days left to participate in our January challenges and collect the pieces to our January participation bonus kit, Penguins in Love. Once the month ends, the only way to get the parts you miss is to buy them in the boutique.

We have two new goodies you can get free with your minimum $10 purchase in the store. Don’t miss your chance to get “Better Days Are Coming” by TerrellS. and the “Sunday in the Park Keyplate Album” by Julie Cohen free.

There are 4 freebies in here, 2 exclusive to the newsletter. Don’t forget to find them while you’re checking out the latest news and products at SAS.
