We won!

May Flaum, Lead Fisk-a-teer for Fiskars Brands and author of Paper & Pixels: Scrapbook Layouts, will be joining us at The Inspiration Station on National Scrapbook Day, May 3, 2008.

May has been a life-time crafter and has been teaching scrapbooking classes for several years. She has been published in numerous magazines, taught classes for Big Picture Scrapbooking, and been on the design teams for several manufacturers.

She recently ran a contest on the Fiskateers web site where people could nominate their favorite scrapbook store to win a visit from May on National Scrapbook Day. Kelly Jo nominated The Inspiration Station and we were selected as one of the final four. When the contest was over, Kelly Jo and The Inspiration Station emerged as the winners!!

Crop along with May from 11am-8pm. Cost is $25 and includes snacks & dinner. Space is limited so call to register today- (860)684-2641

I think we have finally reached our limit

We can't possibly fit another thing in this store! So much new product arrived at the end of last week we had to do some major clearancing. I cannot even begin to tell you how much new paper is here- and the scary thing is... more is on the way! WHY do I do this? Whenever there is a trade show I go crazy when I see all the new stuff and just go about ordering to my hearts content only to have it all ship at the same time and hit us like a tidal wave!

Well, at least we'll be very well stocked for the upcoming bus tour...

Want to know what's new? I'll try to post some pictures tomorrow.

Just to give you an idea though - Bo Bunny Xtreme Teen, Beachy Keen, and Organic; The paper Company Flowers & Frills; Inkadinkado clear and wood mount stamps; Kaisercraft rub ons in black & white; new My Word chipboard albums (Beach, travel, & grade) and much more.

Bus Tour SOLD OUT

We sold the last available seat on our bus so if you are still interested in joining the tour you will need to call one of the other participating stores.

Now it's time to turn our attention to the next big event - National Scrapbook Day! (May 3rd)
Any ideas on how we should celebrate? Leave me a comment.
