It is so simple to join the free Paper Minis™ Club!
Email me,
ann-vanture@paperminis.com ,
and let me know that you would like to join
the free Paper Minis™ Club and receive the complimentary newsletter and monthly
sample projects. That's a great way to be introduced to these heirloom quality
minis. Your email address will be kept in
the strictest of confidence – I don't share my list
with anyone or other business! I will
send you the secret links for the Monthly Paper Minis™ Newsletter and
sample projects within 24 hours of receiving your email
message.
Each September I must clear out the previous year's
projects and newsletters to make
room for upcoming surprises. So if
you join the club right at the time
of retirement please be patient, for
the beginning of a new series of
projects will become available to
you within the month. Retired
projects become printie CDs available for purchase. If you
are curious as to what past free projects for club
members looked like, go to the end of the Paper Minis
website home page (http://www.paperminis.com )
and you
will see links for the printie CDs.
For your

projects/designs are copyrighted and
are intended for club members only.
If you want to share in the good
fortune, please refer your friend (s)

Ann at Paper Minis™

All projects are retired each September!

July 2008's Paper Minis
Newsletter and Project. This project is similar to the
new Cut 'n Glue Paper Minis™ kits offered this month and is
a vintage-look scrapbook offered in three scales and has
face artwork in 5 different languages (an homage to the new
Paper Minis™ international home pages). Though it is a
terrific complimentary set of projects, please understand
that the new Cut 'n Glue Paper Minis™ kits come with much
more and are printed on specialty papers backed with years
and years of specialized experience!

July 2008's
Paper Minis Mid-Month Notice and Project.
As you may have noticed we're building a repertoire of
children's items. This is a cutie from the old days, real
vintage sewing cards...I remember having many myself as a
child. As you
can see the larger scales can be pre-punched and the
smaller scales can be hand-sewn to look real – if your
eyesight is good!

MAC users:
Some older models of MACs are unable to open
Adobe Acrobat .pdf files or .exe executable files. You will want to be aware
of this fact in case your particular model falls into that
category, because all the Paper Minis™ Club's complimentary
projects are .pdf's and the CDs are driven by automated .exe files.
