I Love American Crafts!

American Crafts has really out done themselves with this new release. So many papers and patterns, i don't know where to begin. Well first off we are bringing in two new paper lines. The first being the "Celebrate" line which are bright primary colors and the second is the "Metropolitan" which are the blues, grays, and greens. What i love about these two collections is that they are both so different, the celebrate is fun and bright, and metropolitan is modern and hip. In addition to the papers we have matching brads for both lines, some ribbon, and 8 rub-on collections. I can't wait to start scrapping with these papers. Oh and on a little side note..we changed our mind about the Imaginisce Christmas line, instead of ordering just a few page kits, we decided to bring in the whole paper line! I'm super excited about this, I'm so in love with those chubby penguins and glitter snowflakes. This means we are going to be carrying two Christmas lines! I'll share the other Christmas line soon, your going to love it! Ok off to do some laundry...more pics coming soon.

It's good to be home

We are back from Chicago, and i must say it was a fun trip but it is good to be home again. I'm so excited just thinking about all of the fun stuff we ordered. We have brought in some clear acrylic stamps from gel-a-tins. The picture shows one set called "wild things" which are all different wild flowers and the two samples were created using this set of stamps. My favorite set from gel-a-tins has got to be a mini set called pet shop featuring the cutest dog, cat, monkey and other animals that you have ever seen! Unfortunately my pic was too blurry, oh well they will be in stock soon enough.
Next up we have some samples from Queen & Co. They have a whole line of new self adhesive felt borders that are amazing! They come in tons of different colors and styles. We ordered the Halloween bats and pumpkins, the snowflakes (my personal favorite) as well as the swirls and floral borders in multiple colors. These felt borders were such a hit at the show, i know you guys are going to love them! We also ordered some cute mini acrylic stamp sets from Queen & Co. that are packaged in little makeup compact cases.

October Afternoon

October Afternoon is a brand new company featuring a paper line, adorable clear stamps, and awesome rub-ons. These rub-ons are not your typical black and white variety, what makes them so awesome is that they are espresso and cream colored! The acrylic stamps are cute and have a vintage retro flair. Be the first to get your hands all of these new items, send us an email to be included on our pre-order list. Michelle@mpaperie.com

Page Kits!

These pictures really do not do justice to the new lines that Imaginisce has come with this season. The pictures show here are of one of their new lines called "Out on a Whim". This lines features rich purples, reds, and yellows. The great thing about Imaginisce is that they came out with page kits where you get the paper, brads, and embellishments all coordinating and packaged together. We order some pages kits in this "Out on a Whim" line seen in the pictures, as well as their Christmas line "Candy Cane Lane" which I am totally in love with! This line has snowflakes, penguins, and just the right amount of glitter! In addition to the page kit, we are also bringing in shimmery snowflake rub-ons and penguin rub-ons. We also order crocheted flower embellishments that will look beautiful on any project.

A Little Inspiration

We made it to Chicago! Yes we are finally here and ready to buy! Today was the first day of the show and there was so much to see, it was definitely a sensory overload. We were not planning on buying any idea books really, but when we flipped through these two books, Michelle and I could barely put them down. They are full of so many great ideas! It's amazing how many talented people are out there! Stayed tuned and I will try update as much as possible.

Demo Night

Thanks to everyone who came to our first ever demo night, it was great to see familiar faces, as well as meet new customers. A special thanks to Nan, for being our excellent instructor and inspiring us with her beautiful samples. All of our Zutter products are up on the website now, if you ever have any questions about the product please don't hesitate to send an email or give us a call.

Gibson

Gibson is a new line from Tinkering Ink. If you loved the Posh collection you will surely love the Gibson. The colors are great and the patterns have a retro feel to them. These papers are perfect for masculine pages, and i have found that they also work great for outdoor photos. With summer here these papers are going to look great with beach and vacation photos. Here is a page i did for a recent vacation i took to Mexico. I primarily used the die cut elements, which made my page simple and painless to design and put together. Enjoy!
