Hello June!

Ok is it just me or did the first half of 2013 fly by! I can't believe it is June already and summer is just around the corner! Let all the summer fun planning begin! But before summer officially gets going don't forget father's day!

There will be a father's day card class held on June 13th at 6:30pm!

Have a great one!!

Hi Friends!!!
It's April here on this wet and windy Friday! Is it just me or did the seasons get mixed up some how...I'm pretty sure that only two weeks ago it felt like summer!

Have you been to A Pile of Scrap lately?!? I'm pretty sure certain that Lynn has bought out a warehouse of amazing new scrapping goodies! Seriously! I can't believe all the new goodies now in store--so grab a coffee and keep scrolling below!

Copic Markers

 
 
 
Copic Markers are all the rage these days and have taken the paper crafting industry by storm! After being posted to CFB Gagetown I was very surprised to find out there is no one teaching classes on these! I am a certified Copic Designer and have been teaching Beginner to Advanced classes for the past four years! I am happy to say that I will begin teaching classes at A Pile of Scrap most likely in late August or early September!
 
High Hopes Rubber Stamps
 
 
 
 
Regardless of the medium you choose to color your stamped images with, High Hopes stamps have some of the most adorable images available on the market! Lynn now has a beautiful selection of stamps in store! Best about these stamps...they are made in Canada!
 
 
Mr. Huey's Paint Mists from Studio Calico
 
As I mentioned in my last blog post, these mists are in my opinion the best! And I'm so happy Lynn is now carrying them! I expect them to be flying off the shelf...Can't wait to add to my collection!
 
New Lucky 8 Punches!
 

 






 
 
 
 
Some new punches are now in store! I can't believe I have yet to get my hands on these since they came out over a year ago! I have seen some beautiful projects completed with these!
 
 
Tim Holtz Ranger Distress Paint
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Everywhere I go, I always seem to come across some pretty big Tim Holtz fans! I have to admit, I haven't quite entered the mixed media art world just yet....but I intend to get there! Regardless I plan on adding some of these paints to my stash--the possibilities seem endless.
 
 
Bo-Bunny Trail Mix/Key Lime/Anthem
 
 
 
 
 
What a great new line from Bo-Bunny, perfect timing for father's day projects as well as summer outdoor adventures! A Pile of Scrap now has the full paper line and embellishments in store!
 
 
 
 
 
Can you say color? yes!!! I can already see some summer beach day layouts coming to mind! Love these bright vibrant hues!
 
 
 
 
 
You don't have to be American to love this line! The red and blue are just incredible! I think I'm going to be getting my hands on this line first! Perhaps I will have a layout to share in the near future ;)
 
 
Echo Park- Perfect Summer
 
 


 
Eeek! I love Echo Park! Their lines never disappoint and A Perfect Summer is no different! I just love the great mix of pattern and color! With a four year old boy running around...I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of opportunities for some great pictures!  Yippee!
 
Carta Bella- Cool Summer
 
 
 
 
Wow! This line is absolutely beautiful and fun! I just wish I had a little girl to scrapbook! On the other hand I could get in front of the camera once in a while for some shots---yep gotta work on that one!
 
 
OK-- so I seriously haven't even touch on half...yes half of what is all new in store--here are a couple more things:
 
 
Ribbons Galore-Maya Road and Bazzill
 
Washi Tape & Washi Sheets
 
Smash Labelers
 
More Brand New Paper Lines Including: Glitz Uncharted Waters, My Minds Eye Kate & Co
 
 You seriously just need to stop by and take a look around at all the new goods! You won't be disappointed!
 
Happy Weekend!!!

National Scrapbook Day Is Coming!



Only two more sleeps to go,  National Scrapbook day is just around the corner! I love that there is an official day to celebrate what we do as memory keepers--let's face it, it's a big deal! Scrapbooking allows us to preserve our memories not just with pictures in an album but it gives us the opportunity first and foremost to express ourselves through creativity, allows us to document the details, and establishes a history for future conversation across the generations of our families :)  If you haven't already made plans for this Saturday, you are invited to celebrate with us at our crop! Check out our Facebook Page for all the details.

Want some more good news??
 
Yep that's right...a sale!! Starting on Friday, May 3rd-4th all items in store will be 20 % off!!! Can you say SHOPPING! I think so! 

While you are there taking advantage of the sale this weekend be sure to check out some of the new Mr. Huey's Mask's from Studio Calico!  I don't know about you but I certainly love, love, LOVE anything Studio Calico and these mask's are no different! Take a peek at the selection in store:


If you're not sure what to do with them...I found some lovely examples over at Two Peas In A Bucket to share with you! One quick note -- The Mr. Huey's Spray inks will be coming to the store soon :)

Check out these beautiful projects:


 
 
 
 
 
 
There you have it! I can't wait to get my hands on them...! Perhaps that's what I'll take in my stash for the crop this weekend! Hope to see you all there!!!

Happy Friday!

Hey Ladies!

It's April here and I just wanted to say a quick hello before the weekend officially begins! Lots of scrappy fun going on this weekend with the 6th Annual Scrapping For A Cure crop happening tomorrow! This is my first time attending and I'm sure it is going to be a great event! I'm pretty sure I have everything packed and have lots of new goodies that I picked up at A Pile of Scrap once, twice this week! If you haven't had the chance to get some shopping done before the crop tomorrow or for any crafty time this weekend, Lynn will be opening the store early tomorrow at 9am until 5pm!

Speaking of new goodies, A Pile of Scrap now has in stock new Fiskars Deluxe Trimmers and Scrap-ma-bob's! Scrap-ma-what you might say?!? Check this out:

 
 
This is a scrap-ma-bob...the perfect solution for keeping your drink safe and away from your work when you are scrapbooking either at home or at a crop--no more water marks on the edges of your paper let alone a spilled drink....let's not forget the handy garbage bag attached! I love these!
 
Something else new in store are two new lines from My Minds Eye! My Girl & Boy Crazy! Take a look:
 
 
 
 
Aren't these lines great? Even if you're not scrapbooking pictures of a little one the designer papers in each collection are completely versatile with great patterns on every page! Since I have a little guy I used the Boy Crazy collection to do a layout of my little guy playing hopscotch last summer:
 

 
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!
