New Arrivals

 Woo Hoo!  Distress Stains are finally here! Stains are a more fluid version of your favorite Distress ink pads, so you don't have to water them down as much.  They are great for covering a larger area quickly.   Hurry- these are going fast!

 We also got in a whole lot of new papers  These are by Bella Blvd..

These are by Bo Bunny...

More boy's day stamps by Dandelion Designs and Sister Stamps and new sentiments by Island Scrapbooking.

Here's some miscellaneous items that also arrived.  If you squint, you can see Distress Crackle paste (yay!) and titanium fiskars blade refills. They are supposed to last longer... we'll have to put that to the test!

And finally, if you need some graduation items, we have a few in stock..  Graduation is next month already!

Stop in soon for best selection!

April 2012 Newsletter

Thank You

Thank you to all who attended our Spring Clean Sale. It was a success, and as always

we are so glad for all those who help make it possible. Special thank you to Tracy for being there from start to finish during the week of the sale prep and sale day too. Also we are very greatful to those who buy and sell, for without them there would be no sale. It feels nice to be a part of recycling and this event, though hectic, is always worthwhile. Thanks again everyone. I also want to say an extra special thank you for those who take the time to support Island Scrapbooking's sale too. Your loyalty and support are very much appreciated!
