October 29, 2011? Really?

Just some pics from the neighborhood this past Saturday when we got hit with an early Nor'easter.






Today was supposed to be new release day

Unfortunately, my printer is refusing to print back copy so production is a bit delayed.  I plan on releasing new holiday cards this month. Just need to sort out my printer issues first.  I haven't printed new back copy during my break to finish grad school. And during late summer's hurricane, the printer got some water damage from a leak.  I'm thinking its time to look for replacements.  It is five years old and I really want a wireless printer.  Any suggestions?

My Mind's Eye Six by Six Collection

I actually noticed these a few weeks ago and decided to wait.  Lucky for me I did.  Ordered six pads from the collection from Croppin Paradise for $3.84 each last night.

A Beautiful Life
A Happy Heart
Vanity Fair

Paris & Co.

Honey Cake

K & Company Best of 360 Pc. 12 x 12 Paper Pad

K & Company had a 40% off deal last week so I ordered the following:


This Best of K 12 x 12 360 Piece Paper Pad bundles some of K&Company's most popular collections all in one pad! Includes 360 sheets of coordinating patterns! Acid and lignin free.

These kind of pads can be hit or miss and they have a lot of duplicates.  That being said, I like having them around for larger projects.  They are also great for the random card that crosses my to-do list.  K and Company is known for their vintage style products so I'm sure I'll find a lot of floral and muted patterns.  Its due in my mail box tomorrow.

Echo Park Holly Jolly Christmas and Season's Greetings 6 x 6 Paper Pads

Not sure if I ever worked with Echo Park products before.  They are a little heavier than other papers...they are a card stock.  I got these for a good price at A Cherry On Top. I plan on using them for holiday cards.
