MARVELOUS MONDAYS WITH ADORNIT

Are you ready to see some more of the new products announced at CHA?
Just a reminder:
I am sharing what the
 manufacturers are offering, but this 
does not mean they are all going to be ordered for the store.  
The store is not big enough to hold EVERYTHING that
is offered, so Cat does her best to order what the majority
of her customers want.  
The items that Cat orders will be scheduled out and will
arrive over the next several months. 
It's no secret that we LOVE to adorn our pages with ADORNit!
And, they announced that they will be releasing a new collection every month of 2014.
In January another beautiful Family line is being released and it coordinates with previous family collections.
In February, a really cute collection for gardens and girls.
In March a really cute collection for those outdoorsy and camping photos.  Check out that cute woodpecker!
In April there is a wonderful summertime collection - LOVE those watermelon hexagons.

These are the only collections they revealed, but I must say, they are FABULOUS!!!!

WOW...YOU BETTER HURRY!

Cat took an altered art class at CHA from Nathalie Kalback and had a blast.  
Guess what came in at the store today!
The Creative Palette "Gelly Plates" that Nathalie used in her altered art projects! 
 There are great instructions and photos on the back that show how to use them.  
I picked mine up today and can't wait to use it!  
Also got all of her new stamps & each set comes with a stencil! 
 The pic of the included stencil is in the upper right corner.
 Each stamp set has a different stencil. 
Check out the big splat stencil that comes with these fun stamps.  AWESOME!!!
This is the stamp set that Cat used in class and had so much fun using.  
All of these stamp sets are literally FLYING out of the store.
Cat ordered more of the Gelly Plates than she did the stamps, so there are plenty of those.
But, if you see a stamp set you want, you better hurry....
or you may have to wait for the
REORDER!!!
