To buy or not to buy? February 11, 2009

I’m sure this is something that’s on everyone’s mind these days. And I need to make sure you do! At least here in our store . So I’ve been looking at the new releases on the market for scrapbooking and cardmaking and believe me there are a lot of them! Recently, the CHA winter show was held in California. This is a major manufacturer show where new products and lines are shown to retailers and released over the upcoming months. I didn’t get to the show this year, but believe me, my sales reps have all been in to see me! So, in order to provide you with new products and keep you coming back, I’ve tried to carefully order what I think you’ll love to use! It’s a hard job, but someone’s gotta do it. So here’s a small preview of products that will be arriving in-store shortly (some have arrived already):

Basic Grey – new lines such as Marrakech, Porcelain, Wisteria and more. We are also ordering the cards kits for each of these lines – these kits are great sellers making beautiful cards using their new releases.

Best Creation – the glittered papers we’ve all come to love. New baby papers, Easter, and more

Karen Foster – new field hockey, auto mechanic, equestrain, Sweet 16 and Easter to name a few.

Creative Imaginations – Stars Wars, Cinderella, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty

Cosmo Cricket – Everafter wedding line, Girl Friday, Snorkel, and Lil’ Man collections

Scrappin’ Sports – new “Sports on Fire” papers

Moxxie – Made from Scratch, Destination, Senior Prom lines

Vinyl for Cricut and Pazzles machines

My Little Yellow Bicycle – Zinnia and Traveler lines

Bo Bunny – U Bug Me, Alissa, Pet Shop

KI Memories – Family Ties and Tropical

These are just a sampling of the new products that have been ordered! Hope you saw something you need. I know things may be a little tighter for everyone these days, but remember that preserving family memories is a priceless project and hopefully we’ll see you in the store soon!
