Grammy Awards!!

I don't usually watch these, but I am actually enjoying them. My only problem is that they are distracting me from ordering. I am trying to place oders and I keep "bopping" with the music.

As for scrapbooking news, we just received products from a new company we are trying out. They have some beautifu cardmaking products. The specialty papers are gorgeous too. Have a peek at www.kanbancrafts.com
I would love to hear some of your thoughts on this. Thanks

A few interesting things to share

Hi There,
I know everyone likes to hear about new products but today I want to talk about a few oldies but goodies.
Firstly, the Big Shot die cutting machine is back in stock! and yes, it is still at $89.95!!
but wait.....(I always wanted to say that)........mention you saw this here on the blog and save another $5. That's right a big shot for just $84.95
Next, If you are tired of buttons and metal embellishments not sticking to anything then you need to try Ranger's Multi Medium. This product is incredible!! You can stamp with it, it works as a resist, you can use it as a sealant and as I first mention, it will glue anything!! It dries clear as well. I just love it.
Martha Stewart Punches are the last item I will talk about tonight. These punches are great. Her border punches are quite the rage, then she made her punch around the page punches, which allows you to turn any paper into a decorative shaped paper. Then she came out with her punch anywhere on the page punches, these allow you to punch a shape out anywhere. On the front of a card, the middle of a page......anywhere.
So many new punches have arrived and are in stock now!!!
Also many items have been added to clearance.

Oh and I forgot to mention that this Saturday, we are having a crop, which was opened originally to the wait list from the first crop but........there are about 6 spots left. So if anyone is interested please call the store tomorrow and join us for some fun cropping on Saturday.

I'm back!!!











Shame on me for not keeping in touch last month, the month of all the new releases!!!

Well here I am to tell you that I ordered it all. As much as I could get my hands on. I just keep ordering and ordering, so if you had a favorite, it is likely that I ordered it and if I haven't I may still. Never give up hope.


So above are some images from a little stamp company that I discovered in lovely LA.
You have heard of "love at first sight" well that's what happened to me with these stamps,
I fell in love. Can't you just see yourself coloring these with your favorite copic colors!!! I can't even color and I want to play!!
Nathalie was kind enough to leave us a few sample cards she had fun playing and making today,
Thanks again Nath!
Here is the link to their website. http://www.lalalandcrafts.com/
I have ordered just about every Marci and Luka in existence and even some that are coming soon. You can pre-order them with us as I expect they will go fast.
More soon......
