Last Week's Catch-Up

I tried blogging our arrivals from last week, but had some Blogger issues... so here's a catch-up for those who haven't been in. Fair warning... this is a long one!

We have new Thickers from American Crafts, including a few from the Dear Lizzy line! They're just a little sparkly, not too much... just how I like 'em! We also have the new Dino-Roar line from Imaginisce. Talk about a cute dino line - plaid dinosaurs rock! If you like this, then you might be interested in Dino-Chores Chart class I'm teaching with this adorable line!

We have new bling from Zva (a new company to our store), new themed papers from Scrapbook Customs, including more sports, family and travel (especially tropical and Michigan). We also received additional baby and pet embellishments from Pebbles - too cute!

The newest holiday line arrived from We R Memory Keepers, called White Christmas. This line is an independent retailer exclusive collection - you won't find it at the big box stores, and it's adorable! The 7 Gypsies Library Drawers (and a few other items) came in last week. These drawers are perfect for altered projects, home decor, altered gifts, you name it!

Studio Calico's new line, Elementary, is tops on my list of favorites. This twist on a school line is on the shelf... perfect for scrapbooking the kids' beginning of school photos!

Lily Bee's three new lines are also in stock - Domestic Bliss (think recipe books), Catching Fall and Christmas Town are all super cute (took them home tonight, in fact)!

For those working on their family albums (and those who want to), you'll be happy to know we have a new collection of heritage papers from Paper Loft. For the Record and Serendipity are perfect for heritage albums, wall hangings and more! You'll find them in our newly arranged family and heritage section!

We just received 8 boxes today from Advantus. That means.... Tim Holtz, Girls' Paperie and Cropper Hopper! I wish we had everything we ordered, but it looks like some of it is still caught up in production. So we have his two new paper tapes (Hobgoblin and Tidings), Baubles, Facets, Accoutrements, and Charm Clips. From Girls' Paperie, we have Margie's new lines - Toil & Trouble and Tinsel & Twig. I especially like her Halloween line! Look for these two new lines this week in the branded section.

We also have several new magazines in stock: Bead Trends, Cards, and the latest Creating Keepsakes Special Issue. Check them out next time you're in!
