Have you missed me?????

OK so I have been slacking on the blog thing. Just keep in mind all you computer lovin' people, I don't like computers, typing or surfing the web. So for some it is cleaning the bathroom, dusting, or paying the bills, for me it is computing. Not that I love those other jobs. However, I do love talking to people about scrapbooking and honestly I just love talking to people. Even though I have not been blogging I have been quite busy. At DL we are still getting in new product ordered in July. That is how far behind some of these companies are. I also just yesterday ordered new product from Ek Sucess that will be coming in in December and January. They have some great products coming out including to new Disney border punches, new Cars stickers(are they making a Cars 2 movie?) , they are also updating many of their Jolee's and Sticko stickers. They are updating colors, fabrics and embellishments. They also have some new tape runners that are at a great price.

Bazzill just shipped their new stitched paper line. These are templates that allow to to effortlessly sew on your pages. They samples they made were fabulous. Julie is working her magic on some pages for the store. If you love the new samples of scrapbook pages, cards and paper crafting projects make sure you give a "great job" to Julie, Connie, and Toni. They do a fabulous job of creating samples for the store. Use these ideas to inspire you to try new techniques or what I do just copy and have one less thing to think up.

Sandylion: new rodeo and western line, sports: gymnastics, dance, football, and basketball. A really nice cruise line. A really cute black red and white line by Kelli P.

Creative Imaginations: All you John Deere crazies New brads, epoxies, and rub-ons.

We have also had a lot of requests for Styrofoam balls so we have now in stock 1/2 inch up to 6 inches. This leads me to my next topic of discussion. We are constantly getting people asking for craft supplies. We have requests for everyday items like wiggle eyes and doll rods to the not so general such as leather crafting and air brush supplies. After the first of the year we are going to be adding a craft supply department. We would like feedback on what types of supplies you have bought or wanted in the last year. We obviously are not going to be able to carry every product out there but we really want to provide supplies that are need through out the year and at holidays so that you are not forced to drive out of town at over $3.oo a gallon. So do drop us a note or use the good ole phone and give us your ideas for the craft supplies and any thing else that is on your mind.

Do get in here and check out the sales we have going on. The classroom is full as well as the last isle of scrapbooking before you get to the crafts. There is also clearance items in with there theme or product line. We are offering teared discounts off of the sale price the more clearance you buy the cheaper it gets. You can get up to 50 % off SALE prices this would be up to 90% off many regular priced items. I just grabbed some great things to make a scrapbooking basket for Noah, my 8 yr. old. He wanted a tote for his own supplies. I think its a great idea then maybe he will stay out of mine. We have 3 paper sticker binders in the clearance left they are great for kids or adults. you can get a ton of stuff in these plus add more pages (which are also on sale) there are also tool totes for not a lot of money that are great too. Time to go my typing is getting sloppy. Hope to see you all soon. karen
