We're Back!

We finally have our blog back!!  Who would have ever thought we'd be so dependent on technology to communicate with our customers.  I know we've gotten quite a few emails and phone calls asking where we were and what was going on.  Our many, many, heartfelt thanks to our two heroes (I won't name names because I don't think they're hiring out their services.) for putting us back online.

The schedule for February:

On Monday, February 10, we are doing a beautiful accordion album called "Love is in the Air." 

Although the class will be in plenty of time for Valentine's Day, this book would also be an ideal gift for a wedding or anniversary.

On Saturday, February 15th, our stencil class will feature a cute elephant design and will be totally pasteless.  That's right, there will be no paste involved this month, just three different techniques including faux cloisonne and faux cross-stitch.

We have a Glitter Card Class on Thursday, February 20, and although the cards haven't been designed yet, those of you who have seen our glitter cards before know how beautiful they are.  The class is sure to include glitter, peel-offs, and Shimmer Sheetz by Elizabeth Craft Designs.

On Saturday, February 22, Jane Jones will be teaching the first of a series of three classes for the purpose of building a complete book using the "hidden hinge" system. The book is absolutely breathtaking!  Unfortunately, the class has been filled already by customers who saw her book in the store and wanted to make it.  It looks like we may be able to talk Jane into doing another series soon featuring a different paper selection.

Monday, February 24 is our Springtime Pop-Ups Class.  You will make two cards using the new Pop-It-Up dies from Elizabeth Craft.  Here is a picture of one of the cards in the Park Bench design..  The other hasn't been born yet but will feature a Saint Patrick's Day design.

We have also begun to receive boxes and boxes of merchandise that we ordered when we went to California.    Here are just a few of the new items gracing our shelves.

These are sample cards made using some of the new Easter stamps we got from Northwoods.

These are two collections of new papers we've received from BoBunny.  The top line features really cute dog and cat papers, and the bottom line is a great collection of pinks in butterflies, flowers, and geometrics.  Stop in and see all the new merchandise!
