Well, my little US scrappy friends, don’t get too excited yet. It appears these 2 new Project Life versions are available exclusively overseas, at least for the time being.
But word on the international streets is that there are 2 new kits hitting stores now. I couldn’t find the first one on Becky Higgins’ BLOG and couldn’t find either kit listed in her STORE or on AMAZON. “Aqua” apparently is for UK customers and “Happy” is exclusively for Spotlight stores in Australia {which Becky did blog about HERE back in February}.
First up is “Aqua” full of fun, happy, bright colors that would be great for toddler, kids, and school albums:
It was designed by CRYSTAL WILKERSON . . . but I can’t find any mention of it on her site either. Either nobody’s Search functions are working, or these are a big secret for some reason ;)
Second is “Happy” which is so, well, HAPPPYYYY!!
HSN – who also carries Project Life items – does have 2 papercrafting shows coming up on Tuesday 04-15-14 but, at least according to the show descriptions, no Project Life items will be presented. A Pea thinks she heard that HSN may debut 2 new PL lines toward the end of April . . . and wondering if (hoping!) it might be these. Just rumors and speculation at this point :)
ETA: Am I being a dork and this kit was on HSN last time?? AKA old news? {Thanks Tiffany!} I wasn’t able to watch but I think Tiffany is right.
I think they’re both really cute but I’m kinda’ glad I don’t NEEEEED them, LOL. The colors and designs aren’t too far off from other Project Life lines I already have like my favorite, “HONEY“, as well as SLATE.
What do you think? Are they ‘must have’ kits for you?
PS: For those Down Under, did you catch this Project Life Theme Set of Australia cards in Becky’s post linked above? Cute!

Isn’t this the same Happy kit that they had on the last HSN day? I wasn’t able to watch but have loved all the cards I have seen. It would be awesome if they had it again!
Hi Tiffany! Now that you say that, I think you’re right! I wasn’t able to watch either :( I feel like such a dork! I went to look at the 2Peas post I heard this news from and it was started about a month ago, so maybe both of these kits ARE old news. Sheesh, I’m confused, LOL.
I have the Aqua kit ( scored through a Project Life party we had here in Sydney with Becky herself)and this kit is stunning!! I would highly recommend trying to nab one :)
I have the Happy kit (I’m in Australia) – it is happy, but I hate the grey/black cards. They aren’t black, they just look grey and scratched. I’ll use all the other sides, of course. The Aqua kit looks lovely. I haven’t seen it over here anywhere, but I could get it from New Zealand for about $45 AUD. Ridiculous. They’re saying it’s an exclusive to Australia and NZ, but I’ve seen it in the UK too. I think Becky is just releasing exclusive stuff and not advertising it at all because of the flak she’d receive. This whole exclusive kit thing is kinda annoying. I did get the Australian one – paid about $4.50 instead of $7.99. I don’t mind it. Thanks for sharing what you know about the kits :)
$49! The Happy kit would cost me $49 AUD if I got it from New Zealand. Can you believe that?
I work at hobby lobby and some store are getting Aqua. I had one in my hot little hands this Wednesday and promptly handed it to a very happy lady at 4pm.
