More Samples and New Merchandise

We have lots of news for you today, including some samples from the upcoming Inky Antics class, some new merchandise you won't want to miss, and information on the Elizabeth Craft Designs class.

May 30 is our Inky Antics class and we will be doing these three summer themed cards.  Join us for a picnic card, a porch swing image, and a cute butterfly card.  The class is being held at 10:30 am and 6:30 pm, and the cost is only $15.

If you haven't signed up for the Elizabeth Craft Designs class with guest artist Els van de Burgt, there's still time.  You can scroll down to the previous post for some sample photos, although the actual cards may vary slightly.  We have now received the actual gorgeous samples from Els and they are on display here at the store. Because we cannot comfortably fit more than about ten people in the store, the class will be held at The First Church of Christ at 689 Hopmeadow Street in Simsbury.  That's the large white church on the hill at the intersection of Route 10 and West Street.  The class will be broken into two sessions, the first beginning at 10 am and the second ending about 4 pm, with lunch provided between sessions.  The cost for both sessions and lunch is $75.  You will need to bring your class kit with you containing scissors and adhesive to assemble your cards.  For some of the cards we will be using Copic markers.  Els will be bringing markers with her, but if you have some favorite colors you may want to use, feel free to bring your own. This class should be a lot of fun!

We have been getting new merchandise in almost every day.  We've just received a large selection of papers and chipboard shapes from FabScraps, a South African company.

 This is just one of the eight designs in the "Milkshake" collection.  It features some great images from the 50's.



There are eight really cute papers from the "Baby Bears" collection, but a photo just didn't do them justice.  You have to see them to believe them.







We also have eight designs featuring herons, flamingos and other birds from the "Enchanted Garden" collection.

There are chipboard shapes from all three collections, some with papers to match.  There's even a set of papers shaped to fold into a little diaper (see below) that would make a really cute baby shower invitation.
