Dear Scrappers:

Happy New Year! It’s hard to believe it’s

already 2016 and Just Kitting’s 10th

Anniversary!!!

Ten years ago Just Kitting was launched

when I taught my first paper piecing

class at the January 2006 PJ Crop for

Scrapology, featuring the Pink Panther

fighting Breast Cancer. When I first start-

ed making kits, I drew all the patterns by

hand (using a pencil) for about three

years until I bought a commercial printer

capable of photocopying heavy card-

stock. The letters for titles had to be cut

out until Sizzix became the norm, only to

be replaced by Cricut and then later the

Silhouette. Just Kitting was only a part-

time business that turned fulltime about

five years ago.

This month my kit tradition continues

with winter, Muppet Madness, and vari-

ous other characters for a total of 20

new releases all priced at $10 to cele-

brate 10 years.

Scrappers ask me why most my kits

have characters on them. Well, it’s my

niche. I love paper piecing cute charac-

ters, watching them come to life and

matching them punny titles.

As I celebrate 10 years, I can only hope

for 10 more. Thanks for accompanying

me on my artistic journey. It has been

one of my greatest pleasures of my life.

God Bless,

Lynn Stuart

Cartoon beagle Snoopy is a side-kick/star of the long-running newspaper comic strip Peanuts, created by Charles Schulz. Snoopy was the oddball, manic pet of lovable loser Charlie Brown. Originally a minor figure, Snoopy grew to become the strip's best-known character. His quirks were famous: sleeping on top of his doghouse, pretending he was a WWI airplane pilot or Foreign Legionnaire (in costume), showing the ropes to his bird friend, Woodstock, and even playing shortstop on Charlie Brown's sandlot baseball team. Snoopy appeared in Peanuts comic strips from 1950 until Schulz's retirement (and death) in February of 2000, and now ap-pears in rerun strips in hundreds of newspapers. Snoopy was fea-tured in "flying ace" mode on a 34-cent stamp issued by the US Postal Service in 2004, and also appeared on a 2015 set of stamps celebrating the TV special A Charlie Brown Christmas.

While struggling to become a fa-mous writer, Snoopy invariably began stories with “It was a dark and stormy night.” The phrase was originally penned by Edward George Bulwer-Lytton in his 1830 story Paul Clifford… Snoopy in-spired another popular catch-phrase, this one created by Schulz: “Happiness is a warm puppy”… Snoopy lent his name to the lunar module for the Apollo 10 space mission, NASA’s last test flight before the Apollo 11 landing of Neil Armstrong; the command module on Apollo 10 was known as Charlie Brown.

Star Wars is now vintage...so let’s flock together to see the latest. $10 Pokémon is a media franchise

owned by The Pokémon Company,

and created by Satoshi Tajiri in

1995. It is centered on fictional

creatures called "Pokémon," which

humans capture and train to fight

each other for sport.

The franchise began as a pair of

video games for the original Game

Boy, developed by Game Freak and

published by Nintendo. The fran-

chise now spans video games, trad-

ing card games, animated televi-

sion shows and movies, comic

books, and toys. Pokémon is the

second-most successful and lucra-

tive video game-based media fran-

chise in the world, behind only Nin-

tendo's Mario franchise.

The franchise celebrated its tenth

anniversary in 2006. Cumulative

sales of the video games have

reached more than 200 million

copies. In November 2005, 4Kids

Entertainment, which had managed

the non-game related licensing of

Pokémon, announced that it had

agreed not to renew the Pokémon

representation agreement. Poké-

mon USA Inc. (now The Pokémon

Company International), a subsidi-

ary of Japan's Pokémon Co., now

oversees all Pokémon licensing

outside of Asia. As of 2013, the

Pokémon media franchise has

grossed revenues of 4 trillion world-

wide (equivalent to US$37.76 bil-

lion). The brand earned $2 billion in

2014 alone.

Tom Sawyer Brushes Every morning, Disney cast mem-bers hide 5 paintbrushes on Tom Sawyer Island. If you’re one of the first five to find one, you get a Fastpass to Big Thunder Moun-tain Railroad. It’s great fun for kids and always helpful to have an extra Fastpass. Main Street Phone Conver-sation

Head over to the candy shop on Main Street in the Magic King-dom. There’s an old phone on the wall inside. Pick it up and you can list to an old-time conversation between and mother and a daughter. Very cute. PUSH the Talking Trashcan

PUSH is the talking trashcan who wanders around Tomorrowland. No, really! He rolls around Tomor-rowland interacting with guests. He’s quite funny and hard to miss if he’s in the area.
