Curtsey Boutique Delayed Design Team Announcement

Curtsey Boutique friends, family and supporters,

Duncan Campbell passed away earlier this week. He is the little boy we have been raising funds for with the gold flower campaign.  Duncan was the son of a very close friend of mine and I have been wrapped up in making funeral arrangements this week.

I have not viewed all the Design Team applications. I apologize for the delay. I will review them this weekend following the funeral and notify every designer who applied as to whether or not they made the team as soon as I can.

I am so sorry for the delay and any concern it may have caused.

We so greatly appreciate the many wonderful applications that came in.

Warmest Regards,

CarrieAnne

DT Call Reminder and A Visa Trip with Alyssa McGrew

It's Friday!  Welcome to the weekend.  First up today is a quick reminder that our Design Team Call ends on Sunday.  We are enjoying all of the incoming applications and can't wait to see yours!  All the details can be found HERE.

We also have a layout to share today from DT Coordinator Alyssa.  Alyssa is currently living in Eastern Europe, and created this layout to commemorate the last day of travel required to secure their family visas.  Since photos are not permitted at most embassy locations, Alyssa cleverly created the layout with photos of the hotel breakfast her family enjoyed prior to picking up the new visas.

Alyssa started with a bold background paper, then used one of our 6-inch doilies to create a clean space on  which to build her title.  The book page stars from the shop add lots of interest while allowing this page to still feel almost monochromatic.

Thanks for coming by today!  Check out all the new additions and everyday staples in the shop by clicking HERE.
