Hello again and I hope you are enjoying the summer. It's not always easy to craft in the hot weather but here at Creativity we have just received a shipment of loads of great new items to inspire you to get crafting.
We have posted photos on the new products page of our website to tempt you! By popular request, we have the brand new Artylicious double CD-Rom Peacock Summer Party which is jam-packed with beautiful papers and toppers. Also from Graphicus we have 12 new designs in their A4 unmounted stamp sets, including Peacock Glory, Peacock Ladies and Peacock Fans, as well as Fancy Mandalas, Christmas Fusion, Damask Hearts, Damask Squares and many more. All of these stamp sets come already mounted on Kling-On, ready to use with your acrylic blocks.
We also have a couple of new clear stamp sets from Woodware and Stampendous: Flower Fairies and Spanish Greetings. Talking of Spanish greetings, new supplies of silver and gold Feliz Cumpleaņos peel offs are now in stock.
From Dovecraft we have three beautiful new 8" x 8" designer paper packs: Aquamarine, Hint of Pink and Abstract. These are really useful for your cardmaking and the Hint of Pink range also has a set of matching adhesive ribbons and a deluxe tin of matching chipboard embellishments. Brads are such popular items and we have some new "Designer" brads in pastel and bright shades as well as glittered and jewel brads. Other new embellishments are adhesive crystals and pearls and some pretty fabric flowers in 6 different colours which are ideal for making quick, easy cards: just add some designer paper, a piece of ribbon and a flower with a brad or gem in the middle and you're done! Just the thing when it's too hot to be stamping and embossing but still want to keep up with your cardmaking.
Lots of items are now back in stock: Versamark ink pads, Staz-On Jet Black and Cotton White, Staz-On Cleaner, 7" Titanium Scissors, Corner Rounder Punches, Detail Embossing powders in silver, gold, black and white, Ultra fine glitters in several colours, Heatguns and Fingerguard paper trimmers. We also now have the replacement cutting channel strips for the Fingerguard trimmers.
The Summer Special Making Cards magazine is also now in, with a great selection of free papers and vellums and packed with step-by-step projects.
For needlecrafters, there are some new cross stitch kits from Dimensions, including some stamped designs and a few new samplers from DMC. Coming soon are some super new kits from the summer collection of Lanarte. For the autumn we are working on several patchwork kits: bags, wallhanging quilts and Christmas tree ornaments - watch this space, all will be revealed soon!
Well I hope we have tempted you enough - do come to the Creativity shop and see all the new products for yourself - we have the air conditioning on! Remember for the rest of August we are only open in the morning, back to normal from early September.
Looking forward to seeing you very soon.
Keep crafting.......
