Hi Everyone,



I have lots of fun photos to share today! We have been super busy with shows, working on new products (you will love) and our web designer has started building our new website. We have a new logo that I will show you on the next post! We also have a $30.00 Blog Candy Give Away and you can enter it just by leaving a comment here on this post, by telling what you like about our products!



Here is a cute card that DT member Michele Kovack created using our new Ladies Hat Club Stamp Set. I adore these wacky ladies and all the fun mix and match words on this small set. My Favorite is "How Old? and then you can stamp: $29.99 plus S&H. The suggested retail is only $7.50 for our small Clear Art Stamp sets and we are delighted with how popular the new designs become.







Look at this beautiful Easter card DT member Pam Hooten created using an image from our new revised Seasonal Booklet. You can get the details HERE on Pam's blog and see the hanger she created here.







I can tell people are done with winter and ready for spring because all of our spring and Easter products are so popular right now! DT member Melissa Phillips created this pretty card using our Spring Homespun Cotton Scraps. The colors and texture are so inviting. You can see more HERE on Melissa's Blog.

With the Alice in Wonderland Movie now open our Greetings From Wonderland large stamp set has become a big hit. I adore this card that Splitcoast member Marlene Bender created for a black & white challenge

Amy Stewart, the owner from Precious Treasures in Fremont, NE hosted a Crafty Secrets Day at her new store recently. Our DT leader Vicki Chrisman went and inspire everyone with ideas. You can see the stunning samples the group created HERE. Plus owner, Amy played and used our new Altered Fairy Scraps to create these sweet little altered fairies! You can visit the Precious Treasures Blog HERE to get details on their grand opening.

The ladies over at Splitcoast have been having some really fun challenges and Pammyjo is hosting a 'Color Block Challenge' using any of our products! Look at this very cute girlfriend card she created using images from our Homemade Booklet and Coffee & Tea Clear Art Stamps

Here is our booth at the Victoria Scrapbook Carnival & Sewing Show we attended this past weekend at the Crystal Gardens in Victoria, BC. We had a fantastic time meeting everyone and a great show! This city is very into vintage!

Here is Joanna (my friend Laurie's daughter) who I've known since she was a child. She is living in Victoria now and came to help us in the booth. It was so great to see her again after so many years and she was such an immense help at the show!

Here are some of the talented ladies who took part in our make-n-take and created some pretty keepsakes with our Vintage Postcard Kits . They jazzed them up with Flower Soft, glitter and ribbon. Every one's samples turned out so beautiful!

We stayed at the Beaconsfield Inn, a fabulous Bed & Breakfast in Victoria, BC and it was only a couple of blocks from the Crystal Garden where we attended the show. We fell in love with this place!

The decor was stunning and we stayed in the less expensive rooms for $129.00 off season (the Garden Veranda) and loved it so much we hope to return and use the gift certificate they gave us when we checked out. This was the main foyer

This is a the library that had complimentary tea, coffee and sherry each evening.

Here is the front breakfast room and the breakfast's were so yummy and served on wonderful china each morning

Breakfast changed each day and included a warm muffin, fruit bowl and pancakes with berries and whipping cream. The next day it was smoked salmon with hollandaise and poached eggs and corn bread

Our bedroom, which had a jacuzzi

The next time I post I have some fantastic photos to share of my 2 favorite shabby stores in Victoria. Don't forget to enter to win our $30.00 gift certificate by leaving a comment here on this blog. We will draw a random winner next Tues March 23

Wishing you joy & creativity

Sandra
