Yes, yes and YES!
WoW!
In response to the dozens of emails and phone calls we've received over the past 24 hours, let us confirm that Beach Scrapbooks IS coming out with a new QuicKutz exclusive die!
Here's the scoop:
~ the title is Sea Creatures
~ it is a border die, however it has been carefully designed so that each of the 9 shapes can be used as individual 2x2s
~ the price is only $34.99!
~ we WILL be accepting orders through our website, just like we did with our exclusive Mermaid
~ we will be ready to start taking orders in about 2 weeks
~ we will ship international :)
~ we are in the process of setting up all the shipping charges, so thank you for your patience
~ as a big fat THANK YOU to all our local customers who support us year 'round, we are giving them the opportunity to place their orders now (without them, our exclusive dies would not be possible!)
~ all other orders will be accepted via our website (again, in about two weeks)
~ we have ordered an initial shipment of 600 dies (we ARE open to reordering if there is interest!)
~ there will be a limit of 2 dies per person
~ we do not like our exclusives going for ridiculous amounts on E-bay (why should you pay $75 on the big E, when you can buy it here for $34.99??), so we will NOT be posting them there. We thank all of you for supporting your local scrapbook stores :)
~ Sea Creatures should be arriving at our store in December (QuicKutz has not given us an exact date...so...when we know, you'll know!)
If you have any questions, please email jen@beachscrapbooks.com . We hope you like it as much as we do!!
Leave us a comment...let us know what you think!

Basic Grey
According to Wikipedia, Wassail is a hot, spiced punch often associated with Christmas. Particularly popular in Germanic countries, the term itself is a contraction of the Anglo-Saxon term, wæs hæil, meaning, "Be healthy".
So, be healthy my friends and enjoy your beautiful Wassail (the paper AND the drink)!
