New Goodies

Yay! We have new goodies in the house. We received 2 new releases from We R Memory Keepers...Peep & Family Tradition. I think I'm a little partial to "Peep". Are you surprised? hehe.
We also received 2 new releases from Jillibean..Dry Mustard Soup & Chilled Strawberry Soup. I really like both of them. There is something about the kraft background that attracts me. Stop by and see for yourself...which one is your favorite?

First off, I ordered Taylor's new Easter Stamps this morning....oh so cute. Anyone wanting to make their own Easter cards this year, stop by and take a look-see when they come in. You won't be disappointed!!

We still have openings for 2 great classes this weekend:

On Saturday, March 5th, we have "Page Maps" with Andi beginning at 10:00am. You will create 2 double page layouts using Basic Grey's super fun Hopscotch line. You can use these layouts for Valentines Day, springtime, a day at the park, a child's layout... the options are open, you decide on your title and the pictures for your page! You'll be using Tattered Angels Glimmer mists, buttons, brads, flowers, stamps, Glossy Accents - these pages have it all! Not only will you finish 4 pages tonight, you’ll receive “page maps” of these layouts so you can re-create them with your choice of papers and subjects.
On Sunday, March 6th, we have "Black Gingham Celebration" beginning at 1:00pm. Come join Julie in a series of 4 darling cards using dry embossing and an easy flower making technique. These are so cheerful and fresh, just what we need now that spring is on the way.

We would love to have you join us, so call today!!
