We are awash...

in color.

The box from Jenni Bowlin included Vintage Buttons in six colors and styles and Bingo Alpha Cards in four color combinations...



embellished butterflies in six colors and stick pins in six muted jewel tones.



Hero Arts sent us their "Mixed Accents." These are pearls and jewels in a variety of sizes within six colors themes.



We also restocked our collection of "color on one side, white on the inside" A2 cards from Memory Box (on the left) and their Soiree Collection for Spring 2010. (Pistachio, just up from the center, is the popular color this week!)



Coming up next...

New Stamps from Impression Obsession and Memory Box!

So many boxes, so little time...

It's really exciting around here when there are boxes to open...

Nearly a bookshelf of new technique books to inspire you.

Celebrate Your Creative Self, Pretty Little Things, Collage Unleashed, Delight in the Details are just a few of the titles we received!

The new Cloth Paper Scissors Studios issue is in.



Beautiful new colors of Smooch and Smooch Spritz...



And these lovely little embellishments from The Robin's Nest.


They come in Silver, Champagne, Clear, Black, Pearl and White. There are even raindrops - a package with clear "drops" in a variety of sizes.


I still haven't gotten to that box from Jenni Bowlin yet.

We're back...

in business again. Actually the store reopened on Friday. I think we've all had (and have) enough snow to last us a few years!

Here are some pictures from the Valentine's Cards class Patti taught before the storms:





The basis for the card class was the February Card of the Month kit from Basic Grey. Each participant received card stock, a 6x6 paper pack, embellishments, stickers and instructions to complete 12 cards.





Here are some of the finished cards...
