Our giveaway winner is.....drumroll.......Marcia N.!
Thanks to Marcia and to all of you who participated. We really appreciate your feedback and want to know what products you want us to carry. While we can't fulfill every request, we do take them into consideration when we do our ordering. It makes us happy to bring you the rubberstamping and scrapbooking supplies you want!

We want your opinion! *Giveaway*

As some of you might know, last week was the Craft and Hobby Association (CHA) Show in Chicago. That is where most of the Scrapbooking industry release their new products for the latter half of 2008. Though we were unable to attend, we are always interested in seeing the new items. I really like the new Distress Stickles from Tim Holtz at Ranger Ink. You can Check out more of Tim's stuff Here. I also like the new Halloween lines from Making Memories and My Mind's Eye. I'm not sure which I like better.
Spellbinders also has some great new dies coming out, but unfortunately, not until September. So we will have to wait. Here's a link to view some of the new dies, featured on Debbie Olsen's blog. She is on their design team and does FABULOUS things with stamps and paper. If you are a cardmaker, be sure to check out more of her blog, because she will inspire you (just click the banner at the top of her page)!
So, here's your assignment: I want to know what you are most interested in from CHA.
Drop us an email at Frontdesk@trimgraphics.com and let us know what sparked you interest. If you haven't yet checked out any images from the show, check out the links at the bottom of the post. From the emails we receive, we will draw the name of a winner on Tuesday morning, July29th. The winner will receive a $10 gift certificate to use in our store.
Check out these links for peeks at the show, and good luck!

A peek at more new products

Here are a few more new products we have gotten in the store in the past few weeks. Bo Bunny has a great line of colored cardstock that is polka dot on one side, plain on the other. The colors are very yummy! Here is my favorite, Aquamarine:


Also, in stock are some great coordinating embellishments, like these fun brads and flowers from BoBunny.

Some of my absolute favorite products we carry are the Embossing folder for the Cuttlebug. They add so much texture with such little effort. Here are 2 designs that came in recently:

We have some new value pack adhesives...

We replenished our supply of Pop-Dots...

... and photo corners. In addition to regular corners, we added these designer ones from Heidi Swapp. I have seen some cute cards made with these corners used as flower petals!

More new product will be coming soon!
