Day 6: For the Love of Scrapbooking

I'd like to talk to you today about Stickles. Stickles are manufactured by Ranger Ink and they are similar to glitter glue. They come in at least 38 amazing colours and are a great way to add a little bling bling to any card or scrapbook layout.

I absolutely love using my Stickles to add a little dimension to my projects. My favourite Stickle to use is Crystal. I've gone through many bottles of this one colour. I've used it on top of chipboard, to accent the centres of my flowers or just using it to accent my patterned paper. I can't get enough of this stuff. I just wish they would dry faster....hee hee. But that doesn't stop me from using them.

So for the duration of our sale, you can pick up Stickles here at the store on sale for 2 for $5. Don't forget to check back tomorrow for another great product that I simply cannot scrapbook without.

Day 5: For the Love of Scrapbooking

Well, it's time for a post about another great product that we have on sale here at the store druing our For the Love of Scrapbooking Sale. Today I'd like to tell you all about Bazzill Lickity Slip Albums. These albums are of course manufactured by Bazzill and they are a d-ring binder album. They come in various colours and are covered with Bazzill cardstock paper. The cool thing about these albums is that they come with two different page protectors.

They have the traditional 12x12 page protector, along with, a 12x12 page protector that is divided into five 4x6 slots and 1 2x12 slot. I love that about these albums and that is why I've used them for a couple of family vacations that we have done. The reason I used this album is because like many of you I take way too many pictures when I'm on vacation. And the thought of scrapbooking ALL those pictures seems like such a daunting task to me. So what I do is I pick out my favourite pictures and do 12x12 layouts using those. The remaining pictures that I don't use in my layouts, I store in the page protectors that are divided with the 4x6 slots and they go in the back of my scrapbook album. That way when we are looking at all the pictures from our vacation they are all together in one scrapbook.

So as part of our sale, up until February 14th, we have the Bazzill Lickity Slip Albums on sale. When you buy any album, we will give you a pack of the matching refills for FREE. That is a value of $13.95 and the best part is you get to pick which refills you'd like....either the 12x12 page refill pack of the divided 4x6 refill pack. Tune in tomorrow for another great featured product.

Day 4: For the Love of Scrapbooking

Another day, another post about another great product that we carry here at the store that I simply adore....the Uni-ball Gel Pens from Sanford. These pens are absolutely amazing. They come in six different colours...gold, silver, black, red, blue and my personal favourite, white. These pens are great for journalling on your layouts or simply for adding a sentiment to your cards. I use them to add faux stitching or doodling to my layouts as well.

The ink flows from them so nicely and they last a while. They dry pretty quickly which for me is a big deal as I have horrible luck when it comes to ink and smudging. With these pens I don't have that worry.

So come in to the store and give them a try. They are on sale until February 14th as part of our for the love of scrapbooking sale, for buy one get one 50% off regular price. Don't forget to check back again tomorrow for another great sale item.

Day 3: For the Love of Scrapbooking

On this third day of our For the Love of Scrapbooking sale, I'd like to tell you a little bit about Zva Creative. Zva Creative is a manufacturer that makes plenty of bling. This is one of my favourite bling companies and let's face it every girl needs her bling bling. Zva Creative makes flourishes out of crystals and pearls in numerous sizes and colours. They also make crystal words and alphabets.

These are great embellishments for adding a pop to your layouts or cards. They also offer a great value as none of their flourishes are over $5.00. You can buy them in singles or packs of two and they are very easy to apply to your layouts or cards.

So come in and check out this great company and save yourself some money at the same time. Up until February 14th all Zva Creative products are 20% off regular price. Don't forget to check back tomorrow where I'll let you in on another great product that we absolutely love.

Day 1: For the Love of Scrapbooking

Well, it's the first official day of our For the Love of Scrapbooking (or cardmaking) Sale. Stephanie and I have come up with a list of 14 items that we absolutely love and simply cannot scrapbook without. These 14 items will be on sale everyday up until February 14th. You can see the list of items on the blog post below this one.


Each day up until Valentine's day, we are going to pick one of these 14 items and promote it here on the blog. The first item that I'd like to tell you about is Zip Dry Glue. This is the most amazing crafting glue EVER. It is made by Beacon Adhesives and Stephanie and I both agree that this is one product that we cannot scrapbook without.

One of the many things I love about it is that it is sort of like rubber cement glue in that if you use to much or some squirts out the side, you can wipe it away and it will not leave behind any type of stain or mark. Another bonus for me is that this glue works on pretty much anything. I use it for photos, paper, chipboard, metal, ribbon, flowers and more. It literally is an all purpose glue. If you've ever done one of our make n' takes at any of the shows, you've heard us go on and on about it there too.

So up until February 14th, you can pick up a bottle of Zip Dry Adhesive in the store for $6.95...that's a saving of $2 per bottle. Don't forget to check back tomorrow to see the next item in our favourite's list.
