"Believe" Projects ...

... from Sarah.
I haven't managed to finish even a single layout with this kit yet.  Thankfully, Sarah banged out a layout and a few cards in record time.




And ... Sarah was up for a quick visit on Friday night and brought her projects to display in the store.  The photos do them no justice at all.  Feel free to stop in to have a look at her fabulous creations.
Oh ... and you'll notice that Sarah is a hard core twine user.  Thanks to her prompting, we now have Twinery Twine available at the store by the yard or in 15 yard bundles.  Makes for beautiful finishing touches :)

December Kit "Believe"

Sorry all!  I've meant to post the December Kit before now but it was a wonderfully busy weekend at the store.  We had a great turnout for the Christmas Open House with a few late-night croppers on Friday night :)
This kit is filled to the brim with papers and a variety of embellishments for scrapbook layouts, but also for cards and December Daily pages (if you're completing one this year).
I stayed with a traditional Christmas palette ... deep reds, greens and creams with papers from Simple Stories 25 Days of Christmas, My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Christmas and a few from Bo Bunny Etcetera ...
A Webster's Pages die cut and number stickers from Simple Stories ...
A beautiful glittery gold American Crafts alphabet (as well as a mini alpha from Glitz), Prima flowers, Maya Road die cut and sheer snowflakes, Perfect Pearls Powder ...
Wonderful trims from Prima and Maya Road, My Mind's Eye decorative brads ...
Cards and envelopes from the Tim Holtz District Market collections, Prima jewels ...
Card bases prepared for you using decorative edges from Sizzix and Spellbinders (envelopes included) ...
And a set of layered embellishments from Up The Street ...
The kits have sold well over the last few days and I'm down to just a handful.  Visit the website to order or e-mail me at upthestreet@isp.ca to reserve one if you're planning on picking it up at the store.
Sarah has already been able to complete a few projects for the gallery and there are more to come!

Twelve Tags of Christmas!

This makes me so happy every year ... Tim Holtz's Twelve Tags of Christmas  ...
That should keep you all busy for a bit ;)

So many things going on tomorrow ... the reveal of the December kit (which should have been today but I decided yesterday that I was going to add in some other little extra goodies), new Scrapbook & Cards Today magazine and the first day of our Christmas Open House here at the store! 

Have a great day!
