I realize that this newsletter is late in arriving this month. We had our annual inventory count done at the beginning of November and I had wanted to get things finished up and entered so that I could tell you about all the products that we added back into the system as we found them. The sale sections are super full of products right now!

The last two months we have been trying to fill the Creating Garden with all kinds of ideas for the Holiday season. In October we filled up an area with a ton of card ideas. November 1st, we filled up a section with Album ideas. On the 15th, the Special Project section of the Garden will be filled with Altered projects----all of which are incredible. They will amaze you. Such creative ideas for gifts!! Some of the girls found some really interesting uses for the Artistic Expressions Tins that are in the clearance section right now. Be sure to check out Marilyn and Tara’s projects!

To help with all of your gift projects, whether they be handmade card packages, or special albums I have ordered in the Bazzill mini albums and envelopes. Check out this awesome idea for the envelopes from Jamie Waters:

We also have a great selection of packaged and single cards right now: Ki Memories Sentiments and Flip Flop envelopes, Making Memories card packages and the Stations card series from American Crafts. To make it even easier to get these products we have put them on sale until the end of this month!

The Garden Girls have put together an amazing array of projects using the Sentiments series from KI Memories and the Stations cards from American Crafts. I love how versatile they have made these cards in their projects, from a mini birthday book, a cd book, layouts, and simple just cards.

Buddy lea was sent out in October and returned while Jeff and I were gone visiting Disneyworld with our family. Kaijra Hill received Buddy Lea, and worried about what she would do with her. But once you see Kaijra’s journal entry you will see what an exciting time Buddy had at her home in California!! Wow! We were very impressed and pleased to see what fun they had together.

Buddy is off on her voyage again as we speak. She is traveling outside the United States, and I am hoping that she will arrive in one piece once she goes through customs.

On a final note, we want to wish all of the Americans a wonderful Thanksgiving Day this month. We are very thankful this year, we are thankful for all of you, our users and fellow scrapbookers. Thank you for all that you have done for Two Peas in a Bucket in our 5th year of business.
