Blog Arrears (say it fast - it sounds like something else)

Hey Bloggerettes,

Here's an update on what's happenin'.

The July 17 retreat at the Stoney Nakoda Casino is quickly approaching. We are going ahead with it. FYI: Payments are being processed this week.

Our Creative Imaginations order has been shipped. We ordered two different "Star Wars" kits (only 6 each) so if you want to put one on hold, please let us know. The metal cast brads are not in the shipment - they are probably not produced yet. We also ordered Western/Rodeo paper and embellishments. 'Tis the season!!

"Road Map" from October Afternoon came in. It should be on the floor tomorrow.

Robin is hooked on Artist Trading Cards (ATC) now. She set up an area in the store showcasing all of the product that she ordered to make them. Check it out!

Ten Second Studios is another vendor that we are now carrying. They have embossing templates and colored metals to work with. They have some "U-Tube" videos on their website (www.tensecondstudios.com) that are very good. We are going to use the Ellison "Big Shot" to emboss with.

We are also waiting for our stamp order from Paper Bag Studios. Their website is: www.paperbagstudioscom The stamps of the chairs are very unique.

Margo and Robin had a hay-day (western lingo) one day rearranging the store. Holy Cow - I can't find anything. It all looks new again.

Well that's all for now folks.
