What’s New, Pussycat?

It’s that time of year, the dozens of orders for Spring and Summer merchandise placed at the Collins Show have started to find their way to Paper Anthology! Check out the slide show on the front page of the website for highlights of things that have already arrived, including: brand new, amazing gems from Buttons Galore; gorgeous spring paper from Echo Park; new Spellbinders dies, stamps and foils; as well as fab new items from Pinkfresh Studio and Art Impressions. Coming soon: lots of goodies from AlteNew, Stampendous, LDRS Creative, Avery Elle and Hero Arts. Stay tuned for more photos and updates!

The only problem with all this fabulous NEW STUFF is we definitely need to make some space to put it… hmmmmmmmmmm… (Stay tuned, guys, there might just be a *SALE* on the way?!)

The stamps used in the kit– and many more beautiful Stamplistic images– are available in-store; be sure to check them out the next time you visit! Meanwhile a terrific new selection of goodies from Newton’s Nook has just arrived and is available in-store and online; including a re-stock of the Argyle Stencil Set that Elisabeth used with Picket Fence Studio Paper Glaze last week.

Winter has arrived – Paper Anthology is closed today!

Ice and sleet has started on my mountain and the outlook is not good for the next two days.  If I leave I’ll never get back home so I’ve decided to close the store today and stay warm and safe, watching the storm from the inside, next to my toasty fire.  I’ve got lots of crafty plans to keep me busy today…What will you be doing on this stormy Sunday?
