We love birds!


We would love to catch birds....especially these pretty ones. We thought you might like to see what you can do with the new bird Nestabilities that just came in. There are pretty butterflies and a nice flower too. (But we really like the birds) Happy Thanksgiving......Furry hugs, Mittens and Peachy

Yummy new stuff!

Hi friends.....

People are telling us stamp stores in their area are few and far between, but here we are! Busy as usual and getting new stuff all the time. Mom just ordered all of these cool ribbons, papers and embellishments.....here is what the UPS boyfriend brought the other day. These two collections from Making Memories are really pretty. We really like the jars of matching flowers and buttons. Mom had trouble with Peachy always knocking them off the counter when she was pricing them...what a bugger he is! The papers are really nice....double sided, and even some spot-varnished, or die cut, or flocked. Really special!

Then there are the RIBBONS! About 3000 yards of ribbons came in. Two of them are 1" wide. If you follow other blogs, you will see that many of the artists are now using this wider ribbon. Melissa will be using the satin on her Christmas card. The other one is grosgrain with stitching.

Mom said her fave is the 1/2" iridescent sheer with a heavy thread that creates a pinstripe. Boy, does it come in great colors! You need them all!!!!!
So now you can see what we have been up to..... We have LOTS of new Christmas paper and embellishments, too. Mom may have even talked Auntie M into teaching a calendar class again...
Stay tuned...Mittens
