Happy Spring!
Now that the weather is turning nice again, it's the perfect time to stop by and see our new shop and be inspired to create something springy!

New Stuff...

• Use the new Encrusted Jewel Kits from Stampendous and your cards will really stand out! These gorgeous kits include glass glitter, embossing enamel and tinsel, glitter, and color fragments. We've got all five sets - Blue, Purple, Pink, Teal, and Bronze. Don't forget to check out all the colored mica fragments as well!
  
  
• Prima Marketing is fast becoming one of our favorite vendors. We already know that their paper flowers are top-notch, but have you seen their paper packs and metal, tile and wood embellishments? Check out one of the newest Prima gotta-haves…Julie Nutting's Mixed Media Doll Stamps (unmounted) are too cute to pass up!
  
  
• Tim Holtz never ceases to amaze! We know you'll have to have the new 8x8 Collage Paper Pack. Take a peek at the little jar of Wishbones, the Ruler Binder, Buckles, Ring Fasteners, and new Tissue Tape. We adore the Locket Book, which is a pendant that opens to reveal a booklet for photos or memorabilia.
  

• Snatch up the "Girl" series of unmounted stamps from Unity Stamp Company! They aren't going to last long! Neither are those cute little houses…

We love these new papers! Each month we're going to highlight different scrapbook page and card samples (with instructions!) featuring this calendar-based collection. We'll post them on our website, as well as in the shop. At the end of the year, you should have a complete set of pages for a scrapbook album!
