August 4 means twelve years of Kerri Bradford Studio.

What the french toast???

I’ve shared this story many times throughout the years, but if you’re new here, the day I officially started my business—putting up the very first set of cut files—lightning struck right by our house about 5 am. THE BIGGEST flash-bang you ever did see…hear. Knocked out a tv and two cable boxes (ehem, cable wasn’t grounded). I’ve always taken that as a sign that this new direction in my life would be super-charged, electric…and it’s been exactly that! For twelve whole years…and counting!

 

 

So with every birthday comes a sale…because that’s how we roll here at KBS. (Insert hootin’ and hollerin’ here.)

Save 30% on downloads ($10+) with code HBD12 and up to 50% on stamps, no code needed. Goes through Thursday, August 4…the actual birthday.

And I do need to point out here, the Last Call stamps? The ones going buh-bye? Those are on sale for even more! So check those out, ’cause not only are they not coming back, but you can save much more, but only through Thursday.

Speaking of stamps, today we have ELEVEN, count them…eleven, brand new stamps! I go big or go home. Wait. I am home. I’m always home. But it’s my company birthday party so we have lots to celebrate, including a plethora of new stamps.

 

 

We are adding to the District line with outline stamps. Ohhhh yeah. And then hello, you know me, right? Big numbers? And even bigger numbers? That’s right. We’ve got ginormous numbers coming at 2.5″ and 3.5″ tall in both solid and outline. Dreamy.

Need a little visual comparison? Ooookey dokey. :)

 

 

And more District is not all we have. We’ve got stamps for your Weekend goings ons, What A Trip for documenting the little moments of your getaways, and Open This, for when you want to make your pages or cards interactive and want to provide the user a little help. haha This stamp comes at the request of Miss Jessica Upton who wanted some words to do just such a thing. Everyone say thank you Jessica! And I obviously couldn’t just let it go with a one-size fits all scenario. No, no, no. I need many-sizes fits all. Lots of fun to be had with this baby!

Now for the final bit of today’s news. After pondering on this for way longer than I ever thought I would (thanks last 2 1/2 years of chaos), we are decreasing our carbon footprint in this world and removing the backing cards and replacing them with a 2×1″ sticker. Yay!

 

 

You can read the full story on my social media from yesterday, but I’m really excited about this! And from the response so far from you all, it sounds like you are all on board as well. So yay! If I get to help save some trees, I’m super happy about that.

If you’re wondering about today’s Summer Squared Freebie, it’ll make an appearance later this week. It is August now and if you’ve been collecting each week’s freebie, I think…I think you know what’s coming. ;)
