Courtney's a STAR!

As you know, we flew to California last month for the Craft and Hobby Association (CHA) show. This is where all the vendors meet with retailers to show off their newest products.

During the show, some vendors provide make-n-takes so that we can actually see the products in use. This gives us the information to come back and tell you about it or show you how to use it.

Claudine Hellmuth was showing Courtney the new Claudine Hellmuth paints and sticky back canvas at the Ranger booth. And, it was all caught on tape. I'm thinking Courtney needs an Oscar!!

Click here to watch the video on the Ranger website. Enjoy!

Only a few more days till the weekend...

Theresa Collins - the ENTIRE 2009 release is here!




Happy Valentine's Day! The CRUSH collection by Theresa Collins is perfect for capturing layouts of the people/places/animals/things that you love most in life. It's not just for V Day...but EVERY day!

For each collection, there are some amazing stamps, 12x12 transparencies, 8x8 transparencies, chipboard pieces, 12x12 paper, 8x8 paper, file folders and more.

We had the pleasure of getting to know Theresa during the month of January. She is a very kind person who is extremely grateful for the family and friends in her life. Her designs are my kind of scrapbooking style...very simple, yet elegant. I absolutely love her!

Scor-Pal


Scor-Pal and Scor-Pal tape are back in stock! We also now carry the Scor-Mat.

The translucent Scor-Mat fits exactly in the recessed area of your Scor-Pal. It is almost 12" x 12". On one side is a self-healing cutting mat with 1/8th increments in white and inch markings in black. We recommend the use of a sharp craft knife rather than a rotary cutter. The other side is a shiny work surface. Zip-Dry and Scor-Tape can easily be removed from this surface. This is NOT a silicon backing. Do not apply direct heat from any source, such as a hot embossing gun or hot glue gun. After scoring, no need to put your Scor-Pal away, simply insert the Scor-Mat and work away.

While supplies last, receive a FREE Scor-Pal tote with purchase of a Scor-Pal!

My Mind's Eye



If you've been by the store and peeked into the office, you probably took a double take at all the boxes! Lots of new arrivals are coming each day, and YES...it IS like Christmas!

Today was dedicated to entering the new My Mind's Eye products and setting up the new rack. As you can see from the pictures, it took 2 employees and 2 customers to figure it out! There was some cussing, a few scraped fingers, a near-broken toe (okay, I admit it...that was ME dropping the phone on Linda's foot...SORRY!!), lots of confusion and an overall sense of accomplishment when all was said and done. We all lived through it to tell you that the collections are FABULOUS! And the embellishments (including titles, journaling cards, frames, die cuts and mini-transparencies) are wonderful. Thank you to two of our favorite customers, Mary and Sheila, for helping us out - love ya!!

The pictures here are from the Penny Lane Collection. Not pictured here, but available in our store, are Bella Bella and Bloom & Grow. To see it all...check out the My Mind's Eye website by clicking here.

Be sure to check back often...we've got lots more to go through tomorrow!
