I credit the sun for my cheery, inspired attitude this week!  I picked up photos for 3 different layouts at Costco on Sunday.  I'm going to use all my inspiration to design some new layouts this week.

 

I'm also inspired by all the new school paper in stock now, check the list below to see if your school is on the list...if not, let us know and we'll start a list so we can see which schools are the most requested & order those next time.  Sexton Mountain is one of our new schools and I'm excited to start Delaney's school years album.

 

If you need some inspiration, maybe I can help!  I'm excited to say, I finished a layout last week featuring our new Lil' Man collection from Cosmo Cricket.  I tried something new and went out on a limb with things I don't normally do on this one.  It's my first time stitching on a layout.  I inked all the paper edges and I brought back an element I rarely use...circular photos.  Check it out on my blog.  I'm planning on posting a new layout every week, so sign up to follow me & find out when new things are posted.

 

And be sure to check out the Whimzee's Girls Blog to see new slideshows of Twila's new Graphic 45 layout & her CHA photos and layouts shared with us by more Whimzee's Girls.  Send me photos of your latest layouts using Whimzee's products & I'll post them on the blog too.  Be sure to include your name & let me know if you want me to credit you on the site.

 

I hope the blogs and this newsletter will inspire you to get back to scrapbooking either at one of our crops or at home. 

Stop by the store soon & pick up your Easter Card Kits.  Designed by Donna Taylor, our card class instructor, these kits are available in two cute designs...one with a bunny peeking out of a flower pot & the other with pink ribbon and two bunnies peeking through holes in the card.  Also be sure to grab a few of Donna's Spring birthday cards, so you'll have something homemade to send to those next few birthday people on your list.

 

Donna's Card Kits are easy to assemble and come with all the stamping done for you!  At just $2.50 per card, you can send Easter wishes to everyone you know!  Hurry in & pick up yours!

 

Just like the bubbly fruity drink it's named after, SEI's new Mimosa collection is fresh & sweet with just a bit of tang.  This collection comes in citrusy shades of pink, orange, lime & coral, complete with glitter & shimmer papers, rub ons, satin shimmer accents, petals & a 4"x6" mini album.  These sweet papers & embellishments will be perfect for your Mother's Day brunch photos or for baby or wedding shower pages.  Take a look at a beautiful Mimosa layout from SEI's gallery.

 

Also new from SEI are two feminine white laser cut papers, Petticoat & Shawl.  Mount them over a 12 x 12 sheet for a dramatic effect on your next layout.  Or trim them and use them as borders on a card.  Better yet, trim a circle out of their centers and place an enlarged photo peeking through the lace.  Let your imagination run wild!  Or scraplift a new layout from SEI's gallery.

 

Three new paper packs from GCD are on the shelves now.  The Canta collection has 26 sheets of black & white with blue, yellow & green in glitter & shimmer papers with glitter letter stickers and die cut tags.  The Debonair collection has 36 designer papers in browns, oranges & blues.  The Cosette collection has 24 sheets of designer black & white papers that all reverse to metallic shimmer jewel tones.  Stop in soon and pick up your favorite collections for $20.99 each.  Click each name to see the collection close up on GCD's siite.

 

I don't know about you, but I certainly have tons of photos of my little monsters!  I have so many, that I'm having a hard time choosing which ones to scrap on Daisy Bucket's new collection, My Little Monster.  The bright colors and cute little monsters that decorate this great collection will help you show off your little monsters, whether your photos show them emptying your cupboards, covered in licorice or splashing water all over your bathroom. (OK, these are just Jake's photos from the last week...I'm sure you have your own ideas!)

 

Bring your photos and we'll help you choose from Daisy Bucket's great textured papers & rub ons for your next layout.
