I got the email this morning and while Echo park isn't my absolute favorite manufacturer, I decided to take a peek anyways. Glad I did! They had page protectors on sale, both regular and pocket, 12x12 and 6x8. Really good prices I think! They also had page kits for $7 each, or 4 for $25 or 10 for $50. Also some 6x6 pads and assorted embellishments. I picked up lots of things I didn't know I wanted! Just thought I would enable since Echo park is still owned by Echo park and not American Crafts....yet!😂 And free shipping over $50! Oh, and of course they had some kits by the fabulous Steve Duncan!

Echo Park is supposedly growing...I would venture a guess that they managed to acquire not just a designer for OA, but employ some of their staff now would support that theory. Hopefully they won't end up in AC's portfolio, especially since AC looks like they're shedding some designer brands. I'm not sure who all is going beyond Shimelle, but the new collection at J's from another brand is an older release (can't think of the brand, but it's the Twilight collection, I believe) and I don't think there is anything new coming from them...maybe it's One Canoe Two? I have a cart full and might place an order...trying to decide if I want to get some PP or not. I got some of the packs of 10 last time, but 12x12 full size PP isn't easy to find for cheap these days, either and I've so far only done massive stock ups on my favorite 12x12 and 6x12 pocket PP.  |

Hmm, that's very interesting, I never thought of who else they might have hired on from OA besides the obvious Steve Duncan. But it's good to hear that they are doing good and supposedly expanding. I'm not too happy with AC right now. I don't know if it was Shimelle's choice or not, but letting her go is just bad for businesses in my opinion! And just when I was hopping on the 1canoe2 bandwagon it seems like they have gotten rid of them as well. Anyways, it seems like there where allot of lines and papers I normally wouldn't have looked at cause I'm usually too busy hunting down simple stories or other stuff. So I was pleasantly surprised when all on it's own I was loving so much of it! And at 10 for $50... |

I bought a couple of collection packs, some cardstock - great for die cutting, and a few random things.

I looked into this and the page protectors were super cheap and Echo Park is my default for pp's, I love them and they're easy for me to purchase on Amazon.
But they wanted $58 international shipping for a $10 pack of pp's!! *Exited website immediately*
Anyone US based who uses 6x8 page protectors should definitely jump on this sale.

I just spent $100 on last month's warehouse sale so I have to stay away!

I bought tons of the 12x12 3x4 page protectors at the warehouse sale. I guess they aren't a popular configuration, but I love them! I take mostly portrait pictures with my camera.
Ugh. Very tempting, but I'm forcing myself to wait until they have a warehouse sale at the actual warehouse. If they have one.  |

I gave in and bought a bunch of page protectors, the Flower Market paper pad/embellishments and the Summer Adventure paper pad/embellishments.

I got their email last night and bought enough to get free shipping. 😉 I love their stuff and am another that is happy to support a thriving non-AC brand. Plus, their page protectors are nice and at a great price!

My wallet won't like it but I would be happy for them to offer this every month or 2 with different products. I can easily buy enough for free shipping. |
