Graphic 45: We're so excited to have the newest Graphic 45 papers and die-cut images. We were so impressed with the booth at CHA, such beautiful creations. These papers feature a vintage-feel that would be perfect for those heritage pages and are still modern enough to use on any page.



Fiskars: The Fiskars shipment has finally arrived and you won't be disappointed. We're so excited to offer all of the new border punches including Apron Lace, Effervesence, Upper Crest and Scalloped Sentiment. The new Easter squeeze punches are a must-have...including the adorable chickie, Easter egg, butterfly and umbrella. Fiskars also released a new line of acrylic stamps that we now have in stock. Also, there's an adorable "Love Bug" line from Heidi Grace...with glittered ladybugs.
