Catching Up

I realized it's been almost a week since my last post! I better get you all up to speed on what's new. :)

We have several new lines from KaiserCraft: Just Believe, Save the Date, Sears & Son (love this vintage man line), Turtle Dove, and Twig & Berry collections. We also have new shadow box drawers, a new advent calendar shaped like a tree, and some great oversized memory frames (I'm thinking of decorating a couple to hang at home).

We also have My Mind's Eye's Lost & Found 3 collection on the shelf (it took a while to find room for that one).

There are new stamps from Stampendous - both clear and clings! We also have several new Cricut cartridges, like Snow Folks and Suburbia (I LOVE this one!). A small batch of Tim Holtz products came in from District Market, as well as his Frosted Film (better late than never, right?).

We also have three new collections from Bazzill - School Days, Miss Teagen Sue and a great Heritage line.

Bo Bunny is In!

Bo Bunny has released 3 new collections, and they're all in the store. We have Powder Mountain, Snow Day and Love Letters (yes, I know it's a little early for Valentine's Day, but I have no self-control). Mary took some time today completely revamping the Bo Bunny aisle, which is where you'll find all of the new goodies. Be sure to check out her hard work and the amazing products from Bo Bunny.

A Few More Items

There are even more new items since I blogged last! We have also received the following...

• Studio Calico - Wonderland Collection
• American Crafts - Soho Garden collection, a bunch of new Thickers and the O'Flip mini album to alter and have fun with!
• Simple Stories - Snap! Life collection
• Basic Grey - Lucille and Serenade (classic BG, if you ask me)
• Pebbles - Seen & Noted collection and chalkboard stickers
• New holiday release from Hero Arts stamps
• KaiserCraft holiday collection (going fast)

That's what's been opened so far. We got several more boxes in our delivery today. Hopefully we'll have the rest logged in and posted for you by the end of the weekend. Until then...

So Excited about American Crafts and Friends...

I love it! American Crafts, and its partners Crate Paper and Studio Calico, have sent us quite a shipment. For starters, we have the new Dear Lizzy 5th & Frolic collection - amazing! There are some new albums, including Amy Tangerine designs, that you simply must see in person. Secondly, Crate Paper's new On Trend collection is adorable (I must take it all). There's also more from Studio Calico - new masks, wood veneers, Mister Hueys, you name it! It's all in stock and on the shelves now for you to adore. See you soon!

Ooh La La, So Much New!

I'd say this is a typical week at Scrappy Chic of getting new products in, but it just keeps getting better.  So I can only say it's better than the last week.  We have several new things, some of which the girls are still working on putting on the shelf.

• Cropper Hopper - new paper and sticker storage cases: They are redesigned now to fit in the Ikea Expedit shelving units!
• Making Memories is back!  They have a few new collections (some of which we've been waiting for quite some time on) - Children at Play (designed by SarahJane), Modern Millinery, and Believe.
• Colorbok - We have their new Antique Paperie collection
• Best Creation - New papers with glitter: Circus Circus, Meow and Vintage Story
• KI Memories - They're also back in the game with some amazing new Washi tape (one even has clouds on it, so cute) and Flashback collection (think Polaroids).
• We R Memory Keepers - We have the new Tab Punches and matching stickers (great for mini albums) and the new Yuletide collection.
• Technique Tuesday - New December Daily stamps and Perspectives page kits by Ali Edwards!
• Silhouette - Great news!  We now are able to carry the Cameo machine and its accessories.  We have one for sale in the store if you'd like to see what it's about.

I took a peek into some other boxes that we still need to unpack.  I will give you a hint as to what I saw so far... First name Amy, ends in an orange fruit!  Stay tuned - hopefully we'll have this ready by the end of the weekend for you.  Crop on, ladies!





Glitz it Up!

We just received our Glitz order today, and it's gorgeous! The girls have been working on getting it all in the computer, and I can't wait to pick through it for myself. The new lines are Cashmere Dame, Hello Friend and Yours Truly - yes, please! Stop by to check it out for yourself this weekend...
