Brother Scan N Cut Demonstration

During Shop Hop we will be giving free demonstrations on the new machine that we just started to carry called the Brother Scan N Cut.

With the Brother Scan N Cut you can scan virtually anything to create cut designs and save to your USB drive for future use so you will never have to buy a cartridge again. The machine also has 700 built in designs including quilt and applique patterns. It will also cut fabric for sewing, quilting, and applique.  

We will be demonstrating the following days:
Wednesday, October 1 from 10am-3pm
Friday, October 3 from 10am-3pm
Monday, October 6 from 10am-3pm
Thursday, October 9 from 10am-3pm

If you buy the Scan N Cut machine during Shop Hop (even if you are not participating in the Shop Hop and don't have a passport) you will be able to get 10% off the machine plus a free beginner class on how to use it.

 Here are little bags that we embossed and decorated. 

You can use them as favors to put candy in or a gift card fits perfectly in it as well.

 The fabrics that were used look like this:

 

Have a great week!

Kittens

 Take a look at this adorable kitten fabric that is new. 

Karina made these cards with the above fabric. 

 And Rachel made these cute drawstring bags with the fabric. 

 Inside the bag is a notebook decorated with the same fabric. 

 And we also have a cloth bag made with the fabric. 

This week we are busy getting ready for Shop Hop which starts next week! Can't believe it's that time of year already but we are so excited! Hopefully we'll see a bunch of you then!

Winter Forest

 Good Morning! 

Here are several gorgeous winter cards that Rachel made last week. They are made with new fabric that we have that is pictured below.

The front of the card looks like this: 

...and it opens up and looks like this:

 

Here is a closer look at some of that detail.

 ...and a closer look at the other side

 Here are two more similar ones:

The fabric she used to make the above cards looks like this: 

And this fabric she used as the background:

This fabric coordinates with the above two.

The die she used was one of our new Christmas Spellbinders called "Snowflakes View" and we do currently have that in stock for $24.99. It's absolutely gorgeous.

Also, just to let you all know a few weeks ago we counted the votes for our Card Swap contest and the winner of the bag of scrapbooking & card-making supplies was Tricia Casill. Her card was #8. Thank you to all of you who participated in the voting. 

Have a blessed week!

Autumn Cards & Club Sneak Peek

 Good Afternoon!

This morning when I woke up it definitely felt like fall weather outside so I thought it would be appropriate to show these cards that Rachel made over the weekend. 

The crocheted circles and ovals on these cards were cut out using the Spellbinders Lacey circles and ovals and then Rachel's mother crocheted around them. They make beautiful cards.

 And the fabric she used came from this fabric:

Here is a peek at what the Card-Making with Fabric club did last week...

Using this fabric....

 they did these cards...

Tricia Casill was the hostess and designed all these cards.

The background on the second card looks like this and it is paper by Authentique from the "Accomplished" line.

 

We are working hard today on planning our fall class schedule and September sale so hopefully we can share those details with you soon.
