the adventure of our new website....

a few months ago we decided.
enough is enough.
we need a new website.

first we had a MAJOR server crash when we had a HUGE release with our 
CO-Branded AMAZING Company Cosmo Cricket 
THEN 
it was down for 2 weeks!

i nearly lost it.
WE ALL NEARLY lost it.

once we were up and running again
we were  
SCARED
to do ANY sort of promotion that brought and overload of traffic to our website.

although our website 
was. cute.
it was NOT FUNCTIONAL.
the new one....
IS.
AND WILL BE.
MORE AND MORE EACH DAY.

With the NEW SITE:
you can make a WISH LIST
you can print off past receipts
you can see what you ordered in the past.
it holds your shopping cart
it auto fills your information
it can retrieve your lost password.
you can pay by paypal.
you can see the stamps bigger
you can choose how you want your stamp mounted
and you WILL SOON SEE tons of completed projects with your potential purchase.
plus, much, much, much more!

so today 
WE LAUNCH.
VERY SOON we will have an OFFICIAL LAUNCH party.
we want to be SURE that things are going 100% smooth.
THEN WE WILL CELEBRATE!!!!
right now is the time for feedback.
PLEASE be patient. 
our vision is there, however the WEBSITE itself is still growing.

we will be adding TONS of projects and links to art.
TONS. 
it just takes time....

we will be making it a COMFY, COZY, non-frustrating place to buy Unity.
with anything NEW there will be glitches, however we have an AMAZING young couple that is 
THERE and READY to handle all of them.

this is CASSIE and DAVE.
they have been working NON-STOP for 5 DAYS into the wee hours of the morning
to get our website going.

they have their own company {husband and wife team}
called
FUNKY-FRESH.

visit their website and take a peek at their blog.
they are fun. warm. professional.
and VERY good at what they do. 





Take a peek at the HOME-Page of our new website.
9:00 am central.
be patient and know we are here for the LONG HAUL and will be IMPROVING and adding as we go.
NOVEMBER/December issue of 
Paper Crafts with the FREE unity stamp hits stands TODAY!
{there is also a COUPON with it as well!}
thank joslyn neilson for her SWEET winter wishes stamp!

we are OFF to enjoy SATURDAY!
hope you LOVE the new site.
keep checking back EVERY SINGLE DAY for more and more and more things added!

so, so, so, so amazing! Love everything about it! One teensy-weensy thing tho...I'm having a hard time reading some of the text. Love the font, love the whimsical look but some of the lettering is either missing or very light. Congrats on a beautiful site! It only makes Unity that much more "awesomer" lol!

Noelle Reese said...

I LOVE it! It is still very cute! I can't wait for the catalog! My printer will be SMOKIN'! Then I'll be highlighting and circling like a maniac LOL

Brenda Rouse said...

YEAH!!! All the hard work and effort paid off, pays off and will continue to pay.

AMAZING! That pretty much sums up all the thoughts and feelings I have when the words, Angela, Unity and Ippity are mentioned. Congratulations and best wishes : )

Just wanted to mention that Wal-mart and Borders both have the new Nov/Dec Paper Crafts issue, BUT no stamp is bundled with it...it is just the magazine. I was disappointed to make a special trip to find this and be out of luck.

LOOOOOVE the new site! So worth the wait!!!

Beejay said...

The new site is fabulous. My Wishlist is growing. It will be great to check on my orders maybe I won't order three of the same set again ( too bad for you! LOL) Thanks so much!

Donna said...

It's looking great!

Many people on the PaperCrafts facebook page are saying that the copy they bought didn't come with a stamp and the ones with subscriptions to the magazine feel shorted because they didn't receive a stamp either :(
