Just wanted to let you know that all the Cuttlebug is here. The Fall Releases have arrived. I'm sorry to say that I can't hold any back for anyone.

All of the wonderful My Mind's Eye is here as well. The complete collection of Abbey Road designed by Deena Rutter. All coordinating lines complete with embellishments. Each line has 10 papers and over 20 embellishments to match! Check out their website at http://www.mymindseye.com/. I can wait to get some layouts done with these products. The paper quality is amazing. You know I only order the good stuff!! LOL!

The Stomp Line is my favorite....the cutest dinosaurs papers and embellishments...OMGosh!!

I love the Round and Round Line, also. All of the companies has done a wonderful job this year designing for little boys. It's about time!! Too stinkin' cute!
