New England Trip was AWESOME!

I am back from a very relaxing vacation in New England. It was this Stampaholic's Dream! I got to enjoy great scenery, mild temperatures, seafood galore, and a new stamp or scrapbook store visit every day! I made it a point to purchase something from each store (never mind how much it set my budget back, but I wanted to support these independently owned shops!!!) I met some great people and saw lots of new and different companies that you might be seeing soon too!

New Arrivals

Here's a peek at some of the new arrivals from Cornish Heritage Farms (Kim Hughes and Thomas Kinkade!), Whipper Snapper Designs, plus Dot 'n Go glue dots!
