BOO... Treehouse Memories Page Kit

OK, it has been a while but I have a page kit from Treehouse Memories that I am finally using. It has never been opened before now. It is a Christmas themed kit titled "Just Believe. I intended on putting this together almost according to the directions, just a few minor adjustments. I was also excited because it has Sweetwater brand paper included. This was one of the brands I scoped out at the Las Vegas Convention (while I was at the store). Cute stuff. As I am tearing and cutting I noticed something peculiar... only one sheet is an original, the other two pieces are fraud, photocopies. WHAT??? This is scrapbook robbery... how dare you photocopy papers and pass them off as originals?? I am a "brand" inquisitive person, I flip over to see who is making extraordinarily cute paper... UGH to say the least I was disappointed in this company, making money off of photocopies to save a buck. I still made the page, of course better than their example page :) So basically take this as a warning, not just from Treehouse Memories page kits (not sure if they are still in production) but all; look at the labels and make sure that you do not have a phony page kit...


I included the link to Sweetwater so you can check out their cute papers; they are a small company. Also, you cannot detect which is a phony paper, but I know which ones are. --pm
