Spring is coming...

Perhaps these last couple of days (weeks!) haven't left us with the feeling that spring is on its way...but it really is! And hopefully soon! Easter is arriving fast and for me that always means "spring"! So make sure you take lots of photos during Easter to add those to your scrapbook...

Here are a few new papers... "For Peeps Sake".
Gorgeous double sided and embossed with glitter!

And hope you took photos during Valentine's Day...here are a few cute "lovey-dovey" papers!!

Just a Peek...

This just might be the March Kit...guess you'll have to wait and see!

more coming soon...

decorative paper...

I've been waiting for a box from Making Memories...and the nice little UPS man brought the box a couple days ago!! And inside the box amongst new scrapbooks (asphalt and meadow in colour) was this adorable paper!! Take a look and see what you think...


it just might show up for the March Kit....keep a close eye...you never know!

What to do when it's COLD outside...

hmmm...well, what i would suggest to do in a nice warm house on a COLD blustery day would be to ORGANIZE all your scrapbooking stuff!! We all know how easy it can be to accumulate *tons* of cute little items and oodles and oodles of paper...and also just how easy it is for it all to "get-out-of-hand" and just keep pilling up!

SO...it's starting to look very chilly outside today...so now is the time to get "ORGANIZED"!!

Here are a few things to help you in the process...

Adorable Ribbon bags...with tons of little "holes" in the bag to pull the ribbon through!

and...lots of these little "embellishment jars" for almost anything you can think of...
small
MeDiUm
LARGE
your choice!

And coming soon...Making Memories 12x12 paper storage!

Love, *Elsie

While on the Scrapbook Retreat in Bemidji...i tried out the fabric pattern paper from the
"Love, *Elsie" collection. There are actually two different fabric papers, this polka-dot one and one with little "homes" all over it. I loved the way it worked...i was able to cut through it with just my paper trimmer, the adhesive was already on the back of it, so i didn't need anymore!! Plus, it added so much "charm" to the page! (and the little embossed sticker on the top left corner is from the same collection!)

(just thought i would share!)
**enjoy**

Here is my favourite paper this month...little pink mushrooms!! I found it at Memories for the Making...the scrapbook store i used to work at in Baxter...i thought it was just the most adorable paper...so i now have it here at the shoppe!!
