New Stamps IN! Whiff of Joy

I have a lot of new stamps in this week. Of course the Magnolia Pet/Animal collection, and those are adorable, but also the new Whiff of Joy stamps by Elisabeth Bell. These stamps just pull at your heartstrings. Here are a few sneak peeks. Stop by my store, I should have them all listed by Monday night. I am making a point of taking some time to relax this week and color a few of these stamps with my new copics. Of course my sweet darling little daughter will be helping me I am sure! So give me a week to make the card and a week to post it, LOL! and check back to see what I come up with.

A New Card

I have to say tpday I received the nicest email from a lady in Miami who was wanting to get into cardmaking and stamping. She was complimenting me on my blog and my cards. It actually made me realize that I am not posting near enough cards. I get so caught up in all the new stamps andwhat I am buying and I don't spend near enough time creating. So I am dedicating this post to Mabel, thanks for bringing a smile to my face!




Paper from DCWV, Butterfly from Prima, pearls from Prima, Spellbinder dies, sentiment from K&Co

C C Designs Sugar Plums






Okay I am fixated on finding new cute stamps and I think I hit pay dirt with this. CC Designs aka Cookie Crum Designs has some awfully cute little Swiss Pixie and Sugar Plum stamps, don't you think? And I have to say Christine over at CC Designs, is one of the nicest and most helpful ladies I have "met" in cyberspace. So here is to her success.

Stampabilities House Mouse







I have to admit, when I first heard of House Mouse Stamps I didn't understand what all the fuss was about. I mean who would want hundreds of stamps with mice on them? Typically, if I am not a fan of something I don't stock it in my store. However, I thought I should take a look at these stamps, and that I did. Guess what??? I see why people love them. It is the wonderfully detailed artwork that goes into these stamps not to mention all the fun things the mice are doing. They have to be such fun to color. I can hardly wait to try. Here are a few that I really like. The mice fishing with their tails (fish tales) is just the cutest!
I have not begun to even make a dent in all the different house mouse stamps, so if there is a particular stamp you would like me to order, just let me know. You can contact me directly at casdanben@aol.com or via the contact button at my store.

NEW Basic Grey on the Way


Basic Grey's Newest Lines Lemonade and June bug

Wow!!! what is not to love about these papers? Beautiful bright summer colors, great patterns... I need them. Of course I am an admitted Basic Grey addict.

Of note, the June Bug line follows in the footsteps of some past lines from Basic Grey, and is two-sided. In addition to these two wonderful paper lines, Basic Grey is adding some cardstock collections to its line of products and some new embellishments. All their new products are scheduled to ship mid to late June.




I will be adding these lines to my store soon, in addition to other new products from companies like Prima. Coming soon Prima's new products.
