Yummmm - New Goodies from American Crafts!

You know how it gets as you grow up - Christmas becomes a time when, instead of looking forward to it anxiously, you begin to look towards it with dread, thinking of all the things you still have to do.  And half the time the gifts you get are... let's just say they are often less than exciting.  All in all, Christmas just doesn't seem as fun as it used to be. 

That is, unless you happen to work in an amazingly cool, super fun scrapbook store.  Then, Christmas comes all the time, in the form of a UPS or Fed Ex delivery... and boy, did we have Christmas this week!  Tons of fun new stuff from American Crafts and Studio Calico - you're gonna love 'em!

First, all new selections of baker's twine, jute, and glitter tape - the perfect accents for all your projects:

There are 12 different colors of jute, 12 different colors of baker's twine, and 24 colors of glitter tape... awesome!

If the glitter has you excited, this new glitter corrugated cardstock is going to rock your socks off:

OK, you really can't see the dazzle in the pictures - just imagine tons of sparkle on top of those colors and you'll get the idea - fabulous!  You have to come in and see these in person...

Next, we got in some exciting new misting sprays - Mister Huey's color sprays are opaque colors with no sheen, and they come in a diverse selection of colors just perfect for art journaling, scrapbooking, and all sorts of mixed media projects:

Of course, it's impossible for Michelle to buy colors without adding some new stencils to go along with them - so she got these super trendy designs:

 I've got my favorites picked out - how about you?  Don't forget, Christmas is right around the corner... I think I see some GREAT stocking stuffers in this post... I'm just sayin'!
