Store Happenings

First up, Studio Calico's latest line, Atlantic, has shipped and will be in the store on Wednesday.  Don't blink, you just might miss it.  I think this one will go fast.

I know many of you didn't have the opportunity to see the enamal dots last time they came in.  They sold out in 1.5 days. So, I have them back in stock for those who were unable to get them last time.  We have two different brands of dots, My Minds Eye and Basic Grey.

I have ordered a new stamp line for the store.  Hope they get here soon.  It's a really funky line called Stampotique Originals.  They're really hot in Europe right now and are so much fun to play with.

We're Getting Ready for National Scrapbook Day

Check your email later in the week for a special edition newsletter.  We will be celebrating National Scrapbook Day at the store with special promotions, sales and free gifts.  We will be open our usual Satuday hours, 10-4.  So make you plans now.
