I just realized that I forgot to tell you about a special sale that has been going on at the Sweetshoppe. As all of you surely know already, more than a month ago, a tremendous earthquake and tsunami devastated Japan. In order to support the relief efforts that are underway, the sweetshoppe designers got together to create a beautiful Asian themed kit that will be available through April. 100% of the profits will be donated to the American Red Cross. So, if you’d like to contribute to help Japan, here is a great opportunity to do that.

And since I’m living in China, this kit is a must-have for all my Asian memories! Here is a sample page, using this kit:

And while we are talking about special sales already, let me point you to another fundraiser project that was released just this weekend: A Little Help From My Friends is a huge collaboration kit by almost 50 designers, dedicated to Sweetshoppe designer Lauren Grier who fell seriously ill a little more than a week ago. This kit also will be available through April and the profits will go to Lauren Grier.
