NEW STUFF!!!

Oh my gosh!! We have received so much new stuff lately!! And we got in 3 more orders today!! Here are just a few of the items we have received in the last week or so....

CARDSTOCK!!

We got in a starter order of Bazzill Cardstock today. Dayle is working on checking it in and putting it out. We also received another cardstock order last week. We have 3 more cardstock orders coming in.

Washi!
We received an order of washi from Queen & Company.

 

 

We have her new washi's on order too! They are REALLY awesome!!


Calendar Papers!!

We got in our custom calendar paper that we designed.

We reviewed suggestions on colors from our Facebook following. We got a HUGE response about this!!

This is how they ended up!! Currently, you can buy them individually, but we will also be packaging them in a kit of one of each at a small discount for buying all of them. We will also be packaging one of each with a calendar at a greater discount. Stay tuned for that! We will have that done in the next day or two!

Halloween!!!

We received in a bunch of Halloween lines so far, but some have already sold out already...

But today, we received both the Bazzill line called "Arsenic & Lace" and the My Mind's Eye line called "Happy Haunting".

The Bazzill line has more than just paper, but I didn't get a photo. It has 2x3 and 4x6 journaling cards, 6x6 decorative paper pads, PLUS a coordinating 6x6 pad of Bazzill cardstock colors! They also have a sticker sheet and some other items.

 

This is the My Mind's Eye line... LOVE IT! It has glitter here and there.

These are most of the embellishments....

And the papers.....

{HEART!}

  

Christmas!!!

Phew! So much has arrived!

First, Bazzill's Countdown to Christmas. Plus My Mind's Eye's line (sorry, no picture).

  

And here is just a little bit more!
Autumn Harvest by Bazzill and their Winter line "Nordic Pines"...  These are pictures from the show, but we received both of these also...

"He Said, She Said"

I just LOVE this line!!! Such cute papers!! Great mustaches!! And just fun!









and "Summer Stories". So pretty!








And we have WAY MORE than this!!! Come in to see what is new!

So much to tell you!!!!

Well, it's been a few days since we posted... And we've been open again since Monday now...

It's been SO MUCH FUN!!!!

Oh my gosh!!! Seeing everyone again... and everyone just *LOVING* the new space!!!! Oh my gosh... just fun!!! And still, the number of people who truly believe that the new space is LARGER than the old space, but it's more than 1,000 square feet smaller! It just solidifies the idea that we made the right decision in moving!!

And we've started receiving new products!!!

So, Tom and I are currently in Las Vegas for the summer trade show #CHASUMMER.

We drove over today.

We'll be seeking out new products, new lines, new vendors, and seeing all of the latest and greatest.

 

I love The Strip! The classics!!! Bellagio, Caesar's, The Monte Carlo, The TI, The Mirage, Wynn, The Stratosphere.

  

But we opted for the original downtown area and a piece of nostalgia... The El Cortez.

Built in 1941 and once owned by Bugsy Siegel.

We are staying in one of the original rooms. We didn't know what to expect, but we were a little worried about the noise because we are on the 2nd floor DIRECTLY above the casino, but it's as quiet as could be!

I assumed that because the room was older that it would be larger, and oh my gosh, I was right!

We have a living area, a writing/work area, TWO walk in closets, the bedroom area, and the bathroom. The room comes with a mini fridge and coffee maker (most Las Vegas hotel rooms do not because they want you to leave the room to buy stuff, and hopefully gamble).

 

And the furniture is made of ACTUAL wood instead of a laminate or whatever. Look at this room!!

This is the hallway to the bathroom and one of the walk in closets, our writing area/desk, and the front walk in closet: 

And these period window locks!! The windows are screwed shut, but otherwise, the pane is a louver and would "drop towards you" when opened.

And these are not original, but a nice period effect:

But don't worry!!! We didn't blow our "shopping" budget with this room.... for 4 nights, including tax, it was $72!! :)

Tomorrow, we are going to go to the Mob Museum. It's just a few blocks away!

Tomorrow afternoon, we are going to an "invite only" event by several vendors to get a preview of their products, instructional information, and do a meet-n-greet with the company representatives. Tuesday, the show officially starts.... I'll post lots of pics of what I see!!!

We'll be back Thursday in time to start the Shop Hop on Friday ---- aggghhh!!! I can't believe it's coming up so quickly!

Lots more to follow!
