    Tadpole Tuesday- Select items are $1
    Wibbit Wednesday- Select items are 50% off
    Froggy Friday- New items come out and are 20% off
    These are usually listed on the blog on their days along with pictures and links to the products but I would recommend signing up for the newsletter so that you can have the reminder sent to your inbox.

    I was going to add a few alphas as well, but I know I couldn't limit myself to just a few! Happy shopping & good luck deciding!!

    Now for kits, oh my, there's not enough space to list all my favorites. I will list my favorite from each designer but you honestly can't go wrong with anything in the store.


    Make Me Smile: the kit by Amber Clegg
    Needed More Stitching BundleAmy Martin- Love Amy's stitching. A must have for your stash.
    Remember When collab with Aja Abney by Amy Wolff
    No way I could pick just one from CD Muckosky's store so just go buy the whole thing:giggle. Her alphas and paint and everything is just so amazing. You will find yourself using them over and over.
    Todayby Designs by Lili. I love Lili's alphas and date elements. You can't go wrong with any of them.
    Bubble Wrap Stampsby Emily Merritt
    Zoobilee Zooby Gina Miller
    the chuck wearer by heather hess- One of my most favorite fonts, EVER!
    Baby Bugs collab by Amy Wolff and Jacque Larsen- You also can't go wrong with any of Jacque's alphas. I use them over and over.
    Walk In The Park collab by Jenna Desai and Valorie Wibbens- So fun and whimsical. Jenna also has some of the best bits and pieces to finish off your pages.
    I adore all of Karah's splatter packs and frame packs. Her frames really help me if I am trying to design my own page without a template. I struggle with picture placement and her Stuck Together Frame series is soooo helpful.
    COLLAB: Srsly Stoked (with Kim) by Kate Hadfield
    my hero collabby Kaye Winiecki and Ju Kneipp
    Positivity [w/ Jenn Barrette] by Lauren Reid
    Love Life (Rachel's bits) by Rachel Young
    Sahlin Studio is another that would be impossible for me to pick just 1. Everything she creates is amazing and I would go buy her whole store if I didn't already own it:giggle. One of my favorites though is Practically Perfect. She does vintage in such an amazing way:heartslub
    Sara Gleason - Seriously? ANYTHING. I could not scrap without her:beat
    Smokin Hot Elements by The Tattered Pear. Perfect for those summer cook outs. They have such fun and unique stuff.
    Espresso Yourself by Valorie Wibbens

    Also don't forget to check out our new Essentials section. There are some great things to really help build your LilyPad stash.

    ETA: I have layouts in my gallery with most of these products if you want to see them in action.

    I could spend 20 hours linking you up to my favorites. I've never bought anything here that I didn't love and I've been shopping for about 4 years here. SO I'll link you up to the kits that I've used several times because they are just that good. :)

    All of Karah's Splatteriffics and her brushes are fabulous:

    I have all boys so this is perfect for everything they do:
    [​IMG]

    This is good for so many different kinds of layouts:

    These papers (and all their variations) are on almost every single LO I make:

    and I just LOVE this alpha:

    We love the beach so this:

    K... I better stop... but I just love them all!

    There is so much that I am not sure where to start so I will just say that the June BOYC blew me away. So many of the items I have used a ton on different LOs too which is always nice.

    Awesome. Just like the title. :)

    This is a kit I just used that I love because I think you could use it for a bunch of different themes.
