storage for my paper projects...come take a look!

14 August 2010

I guess it's about time...

This month's Scrappy Chic DT kit is all about fall. Since it's supposed to be 90 today, that feels a little silly!  But crafters are always looking ahead....

Anywho, here are my goodies:


The stuff on the left is one of like a squillion new lines from Reminisce. Ok, there were six, not a squillion. But still. Each of us got one of the new lines, plus a coordinating sticker pack. I was actually rooting through a bunch of boxes to pick out stuff for everyone -- stuff is coming in fast and furious these days -- faster than any normal human can get it out onto the shelves! In the middle, two new, yummy ribbons from May Arts -- olive silk and brown leaves. On the right, we have Imaginisce's new Apple Cider line. Super-cute, very high-quality paper. Also fall, though!  Here's a close-up:


It has lovely glossy details. Yum. Oh, and one good thing about being a new scrapper is that I still have photos from last Thanksgiving to use with these. I love being smart by accident. :)

My fellow DT members are also getting some goodies from a third line -- Sassafras's Indie Girl. I didn't give myself any, though...because I already have the whole line. I'm no good at delaying gratification!

I had to pick up a few things for myself too, of course! First, some too-cute-to-pass-up stickers to match the line above:


They're fabric. Love the texture!  Also got a few new goodies just for me:


Spooky.  New Tattered Angels -- their Mistables crepe ribbon and two new shimmery thingies. The Glaze (brown stuff) has a nice, subtle glimmer and a more opaque consistency than the usual mists -- and a nail polish-like applicator built in. Handy. The Chalkboard mist (I got it in Charcoal) is as shimmery as the usual stuff, but the color really does have a chalk-like finish. How something can be chalky and shimmery at the same time, I don't know. Magic!  Oh, and I just had to pick up that stamp from Inkadinkado. Not only am I kinda low on Halloween stamps, this particular one looks like a wine label. Though I'm a beer girl, I'm from a family of winos -- Halloween cards are gonna be a snap this year!

Can't wait for more of the CHA goodies to show up at the store! So much fun stuff on the way.

Later.

Those fall papers are amazing! Fall's my fave season and those colours are really calling out to me. Alas, do I have a use for dp?? LOL

What I'm really drawn to is that crepe ribbon set with text, damask and music notes! DROOL... I can't wait to see what you create with all this stuff!

P.S. I love beer, too. I pretty much love all alcohol...except maybe the super strong stuff like whiskey. ;Þ

Thanks for the eye candy! After all this hot weather, I am really looking forward to crisp, fall days - and an autumn trek to Scrappy Chic to pick up all the new stuff! : )

Thanks for the Indie Girl stuff.... put that off hoping that I would get some in my kit! yay! Can't wait to play with everything now. Didn't she get some great ribbon??? We spent a lot of time picking ribbon since it was all so good! The silk stuff is so soft. I didn't see any of that fall stuff out.... must have still been in the boxes when I was there!
