Okay, so like last Saturday.....

Okay, so like last Saturday I totally did a great blog post and then AT&T came to work on our phones and internet and so I saved my post so they could turn everything off and when I came back later it was gone.......I was sooo sad.  When I sit down to do my blog I don't know why but it take me like forever to do anything (can someone tell me why????) and I was so dog-gone frustrated!

Anyway, I'm back and I'm committed to getting my blog entry done today!  I have lots of good news for all you Stampin' Treasures fans that I need to share! 

First, off I drew a winner on Saturday for the Butterfly cards.  The winner was Joyce, comment #4, Thanks for your comments! Please send me your address and I'll zip your Memory box butterfly cards off to you right away! And I found these cool  Memory Box pastel color Frame cards (I think there are 25 in a package) that I'll do in a blog giveaway this week.  We'll do the drawing sometime next week.  This week you need to tell me something you'd like to see us carry in our store, okay?

We've got new stuff in the store so hang on to your hats!

New Lockhart including the Nicholas' First Train stamp! Isn't it cute? We only received a handful of them so if you want one you better grab it fast! There are only 250 of these in the whole wide world and they are numbered and signed by the creator, Karen Lockhart. 

I have to tell you how much fun Lockhart stamps are to work with.  I used the Bride stamp last week to make a few wedding cards.  (I tried to scan them but I'm telling you I am NOT a photographer! I could not get the light blue I used around the edges of the bride gown to turn out not matter what I did....that's my next goal to learn how to take close up pics of cards and such here in my office!) Anywho, I digress...... making Lockhart cards is such a breeze.  And I love these new autumn and holiday images.  Check 'em out.  I bet you'll find some you must acquire!

New Kodomo Zigen and New Kodomo clear stamps are on our shelves! These are absolutely lovely! Kodomo has some autumn stamps and some winter stamps that are just breath taking! Kodomo sent me this Winter Robin sample card that I thought was really pretty.  I haven't had a chance to play with them yet but I'm looking forward to it!  All Kodomo Zigen stamps and clear sets are restocked as well.

We've restocked My Favorite Things! So many of you have asked and we've responded! Every set is now in stock and ready to ship! Isn't this a fun card? I want to make a bunch of these to have on my desk to send to friends! 

Inchie Arts are in house and will be on the site in the next week (I'm headed to Denver Friday for my sister's wedding so it's my goal to get it done by then!)

I also wanted to let you know that my friend Cindy Lyles has a beautiful new store here.  She used to have an eBay store and has moved her fun goodies here.  Check her out.  I bet you'll find some goodies you'll just have to have! Cindy uses a lot of our Hero Arts stamps and Memory Box stamps in her blog.  She's very talented and a real sweetheart to boot!

My son Erik is home from college and has been frequenting Peach Pit.  Have any of you been there?  It's a great Frozen Yogurt Place we have here.  Yummy and delightfully low in calories.  He goes back to college in a couple of days.  Remember what a wreck I was the first time he left for college? Pray for me, will ya?  I hope I'll probably be better this time.  Lauren is my other child and she's a senior in high school.  The other night was Lauren's back to school night.  I cried (I'm not even kidding) because it's my last back to school night. I probably need counseling. 

We'll be back in touch later next week!

Happy September!

I think your store is outstanding and I'm very excited to hear you'll also be carrying Inchie products soon.

On my wish list would be:

Inkadinkado - Their latest Autumn and Halloween release is great.

Tattered Angels - I recently took a card class and had so much fun with the glitter mist products. They also carry Glitter Chips and Glass and even screens.

You already have a pretty good range of all my favourite stamps (I'm a big Hero Arts fan!). I really like the Chalk Ink Queues, but I was wondering if it might be possible to source full sized pads of these inks - there are some colours that I use a lot and it would be cool to have a bigger pad to work with (takes quite a bit of work to ink up a DesignBlock stamp with the little cats eye pad!).

[Estivalia]

I agree with Rebecca, your store is awesome as it is now! :)

I'd add some patterned papers pad from other brands, not that I don't love Memory Box, but some Basic Grey wouldn't hurt ;)

I'm also a big fan of using Prima flowers ♥

I agree with everyone that you do a great job with the product selection that you have, but like the first comment I would love Inkadinkado, and maybe eat cake graphics...
I like Impression Obsession also.
Keep up the good work! and please keep those hero arts and memory box products coming!! Love the Kodomo also!

I am already a fan of your store, and love all of the great items you carry, but I would love to see you carry Memento inks. Thanks for the chance for the fantastic MB frame cards!! :)

Fantastic store! You have such an excellent range of Memory Box. And you ship to canada, which is such a plus and bonus!! Have you ever thought about carrying the Dew drops by Robin's nest? They are my #1 embellishment. Thanks for the chance at the lovely MB giveaway! Tinla
