Black Friday Weekend Special

[Debb Cozzi]

Guild memberships normally cost $15.00 for a three month subscription. But now, through Monday, November 30 you may purchase or renew your existing subscription for just $12.00. Guild membership includes our monthly Guild Kit and the monthly issue of our online magazine, "The Artisan Notebook." Here is a peek at this month's members benefits:



The November Guild kit is filled with warmth and whimsy. The backgrounds are a mix of warm, shabby fall colors. The coordinating elements include some delightful birds, and bird-house elements, multi-colored frames, flowers, patchwork strips, buttons, felt elements, stitches and word art. The coordinating alpha has a fun patch-work theme and the bonus features this month include a layered template, a Ready Made Page (tm), a set of photo overlays and a set of word art. This kit is sure to be a wonderful complement to all of your fall photos and layouts that celebrate your Thanksgiving holidays.

Here is a closer look at the kit:

I'd like to take advantage of renewing at the reduced price, but when I go to the store, it says that my email address is not recognized! I don't know how that can be since I'm already a member and receiving the monthly kits. Am I in the wrong spot?

Hi Shar, memberships are not purchased in the store. You just need to click on the "User CP" in the brown menu bar on this forum page. There you will see a menu bar on the left-hand side of the page. At the bottom of the menu you will see "Paid Subscriptions" Click on that and then use the drop-down menu to select Guild membership. Let me know if you are still running into problems and I'll work with you and getting it fixed!

oooops....never mind....I wandered around and figured out what to do. I've re-upped! Thanks for the discount!
