We have been very busy in the last few weeks, not just packing up all your festive orders but we have been indulging ourselves in quite a bit of ordering too.
In order to make way for all our new arrivals we have created a
sale category to make it easier to hunt for bargains (but be warned there are a lot of bargains in that section!) - once they have gone they have gone.
We have been going embellishment crazy and we have some yummy
buttons by American Crafts and Maya Road. I just adore the trinket tins the Maya Road buttons come in and, yes, you can buy the tins on their own (if i haven't caved in and bought them all for myself!). I am still on the look out for more variety of buttons so if you have a favorite let me know and i will hunt them down
We also have some new
ribbons and plenty more to come but i am just in love with this yummy Maya Road velvet blossom trim, sold by the metre and sooooooo strokable
Our last batch of
Tim Holtz stamps sold out so quickly we have restocked and increased our range of these stunning arty sets. make sure you don't miss your favorite this time!
We have some yummy
alterable goodies here and i think one of the tins would be great for storing the cards i have made but not yet sent in but as i have only made one Christmas card so far this year I think I will need to wait until I have had a few days of creative blasting and hope they haven't all disappeared by then!
I can already picture mine covered in some yummy papers and ribbons with a few of my favorite stamped images on
I admit I am a little bit obsessed with Maya Road but it seems lots of you are too as their
chipboard books are always a huge hit and some of the lines have sold out already - sorry!
If your stamps look anything like mine then you should join me in writing to Santa and begging him for one of Tim Holtz's gorgeous unmounted stamp storage solutions - I really hope i am not on the naughty list this year but i will be leaving out extra mince pies this year and hoping
Stickles are so popular we have decided to stock the Ice Stickles range too (and we also have distress stickles coming in the next week or two so we are looking forward to getting our hands on those
Personal Impressions have brought out some cute clear stamp sets, which are great value, along with the brilliant hIDe ID stamp. The hIDe ID stamp allows you to render to render your personal details unreadable so that you can recycle your papers without needing to shred (lots of areas don't allow shredded paper to be recycled as it is a fire hazard in the recycling plant!)
Last but not least we have increased our range of
distress inks up to the full 25 colours
I hope I haven't bored you to death with all that lot!
We have got some more very exciting arrivals due in next week - those of you who are very eagle eyed might spot some very cute preorders on the website, i am checking the online tracking a scary number of times a day and can't wait for these to arrive from the US.
Another little batch of newbies we have on the way have me so excited i just want to punch something ........ hmmm......not like me to get violent!
Enjoy (and thanks for staying awake if you managed to read this far!)

PS - Ooops sorry forgot to say that we are still having problems getting the Tuxedo black memento ink pads into stock but we have got memento tuxedo black ink pens in until the pads are back in the country!
The papers are by PM and there are some simular adhesive stones available 
Then take a tooth pick or something simular and roll the paper along, starting from the widest [uncut] bit.
