This special offer will only be available for 24 hours, beginning at 12:00 am (MST) on Friday, November 25, and ending at 11:59 pm. The mystery boxes will only be available while supplies last. 

What will be in these mystery boxes? It’s a big surprise, but we will tell you that the mystery boxes will be filled with retired products grouped together purposefully for certain types of crafters. The scrapbooking bundles will contain products like retired My LegacyTM albums, papers, Complements, InstalifeTM mini albums and cards, Picture My LifeTM pocket scrapbooking cards, and assorted embellishments like mini-medley accents, washi tape, and stickers!

Finally, we will also be offering scrapbooking & cardmaking bundles with a combination of products for those who love it all! Again, these bundles will be inside mystery boxes, so you won’t know which exact products you’ll be getting, but this gives you an idea of what we’ve cooked up.

Will you receive duplicate products in the mystery boxes?
You may receive duplicate items in the mystery boxes. Many of the items included in the mystery boxes are considered consumable, which just means that having more than one would be even better! In the instances that duplicates are included, we won’t put more than two identical items in a single mystery box.

These mystery boxes will only be available on my website (amy.closetomyheart.com) on FRIDAY. PLAN TO SHOP EARLY TO BE THE BEST BOXES!!!
