Greetings!


 Can you believe that Easter is just about a month away?...Ginny recently demo'd how easy it is to make some adorable containers perfect for holding your favorite  Easter treats...she choose  new dies from Lifestyle Crafts/Quickutz that  included layered flowers, lacy borders, boxes, pockets, and cute bunnies, chicks and a grass border in two sizes...
 The mini food tray is layered with a lacy nesting circle...
Cute containers are made from cute paper of course! New from Prima....Sunny Days....perfect for spring in bright pinks, yellows and oranges...we've got lots of new lovely 6 x 6 paper pads and embellishments from Prima in the store now...
 
 One of our favorites is the mini pocket die...great for tucking a gift card inside...
 A piece of the new nesting flower die makes a sweet addition to the mini pocket...
 The Club die is "BEE MINE"...
Ginny made a pocket tag from the Tag It Set and attached it to the Pinwheel with a paper straw...note the cleverly constructed bee in the middle...made from a black brad, thin yellow ribbon and tiny glitter hearts....adorable! All the bits and pieces are included in your February Club Kit...

On Sunday we had two full classes with one of our favorite teachers....Els, from Elizabeth Craft Designs...Els is one busy lady who travels world wide to teach her signature card making techniques with her new craft dies and glitter, and we were so thrilled to have her teach here again...if you missed these classes, Els promised to be back in the fall...
These craft dies are hot, hot, hot... right now and we are well stocked for you...
 Using Els all new craft dies, shimmer sheets, peel off stickers and  polished silk glitter...
 these ladies made some beautiful cards...these are stunning!
Thank you Els and to all the ladies who took the classes...it was great to spend the day with you!

Make Someone Happy!

But they can't!
Pretty ATC notebooks full of pink and red valentine love!
On Sunday we enjoyed Nancy's demo with new floral Penny Black stamps....these are so lovely and are perfect for any card occasion...
Nancy makes the most unique cards, tags, and mini books...all feature an interesting fold or layering technique to make her creations really stand out...you need to come in and see for yourself just how special these are...my favorite is the octagon shaped mini book
