Fall

We finally got the Heidi Swapp items in our store, after many phone calls and a lot of frustrations. Does anyone else think Advantus needs some help in the Customer Service Area? We were persistent because we love Heidi's Designs and creativity.
We also recieved in all of the New Pressed Petals new items from CHA Summer. The Chip Chatters are great! We have dressed them up and distressed them, either way I think Pressed Petals has a hit! The distressed metals from Pressed Petals, Monday's Metal, are very nice. I have not had the opportunity to use them, but I do like the look.
Just today, for the first time in weeks, I got to scrapbook for my own pleasure. I completed 3 of the 7 Gypsies Clipper Frames (grandkids just had their pictures taken) and one layout from our vacation in SF. The layout was a simple lay-out by I felt a sense of accomplishment just getting something done.
We are busy adding all of the new Christmas items in the store. We can hardly wait for the Basic Grey Blitzen collection! Imagination Projects has a couple of really cute Christmas lines this year, we have them all on pre-order and the orders have been good.
The Making Memories Vintage Hip is going great for our store, it is a shabby chic style with a lot of class!
The item of the month was the Provo Craft Rectangle Tins, big surprise! We sold out our second shipment within 3 hours of sending out our newsletter. We are anxiously awaiting our next shipment in the next 10 days, they are already sold on pre-order. I wish we had a million of those things! Speaking of lunchpails, we can't keep the Basic Grey Lunchpail on the shelf either. I am saving mine for Chirstmas Pictures!
