New Papers from Bo Bunny and K & Company!

Lots of new arrivals to talk about at www.ScrapBugLane.com. Great new papers arrived last week from Studio 8 and Imaginisce. We are featuring Studio 8's 'Blooming' collection, and are pleased to be offering the 'A Shore Thing' Collection from Imaginisce.

Just added today are two great collections for spring from Bo Bunny, 'Ella' and 'Organic':

• 'Organic' is a brand new release from the Bo Bunny Line, and is clean and simple! A beautiful collection that is versatile enough to use for family, kids, travel, spring and more. Its also perfect for your down to earth prince or princess, since there are patterns appropriate for boys and patterns appropriate for girls - a rare find!
• Bo Bunny's 'Ella' on the other hand is the perfect paper for your little or big girl. This line is sweet, charming, and full of enchantment! One of the greatest things about this high quality double sided paper is the vivid color combinations!

In addition to the complete paper collection for both of these lines, we will be featuring delightful, Bo Bunny quality rub-ons: Greenhouse and Tweet Tweet for the 'Organic' collection and Enchanted and Fawna for the 'Ella' collection. Just wonderful!

Also added today are two new paper pads from K & Company, 'Mira' and 'Urban Rhapsody'. These papers are wonderful, full of vibrant colors, flocking, glitter, foil, and more. We will be featuring many coordinating embellishments for both lines, including journaling pads, beaded and felt brads, and more! Be sure to check out both 'Mira' and 'Urban Rhapsody', brand new from K & Company!

Happy President's Day - the Day After!

Hi all. I know I'm a day late in wishing you a Happy President's Day, but happy wishes none the less. I had a few quotes from some former presidents to share with you. I'm sure you'll pardon the delay - these quotes are timeless, and are applicable everyday, so I'm sure you will still enjoy them.

I spent the holiday skiing. President's Day marks the last big ski holiday of the year, and it was certainly crowded. I personally only skied about an hour - I spent the rest of the day chasing my youngest up (and down) snow banks. I spent the majority of the day in my ski boots (wishful thinking) until I finally got smart and resigned myself to taking them off. As a result, my feet are quite tired and sore today. My oldest was able to enjoy the day skiing though, and has the sunburn to prove it. It certainly was a beautiful day! What a blessing to be able to go out and spend a day with the kiddos in a country where we are still endowed by our Creator with inalienable rights!

Hope you enjoy these quotes. There might be one or two in here for your scrapbooks!

Quotes from past Presidents:

I hope I shall possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest man. ~George Washington

I had rather be on my farm than be emperor of the world. ~George Washington

Honesty is the first chapter of the book of wisdom. ~Thomas Jefferson

The most valuable of all talents is that of never using two words when one will do. ~Thomas Jefferson

But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine. ~Thomas Jefferson

I am rather inclined to silence, and whether that be wise or not, it is at least more unusual nowadays to find a man who can hold his tongue than to find one who cannot. ~Abraham Lincoln

I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. My own wisdom and that of all about me seemed insufficient for that day. ~Abraham Lincoln

I leave you, hoping that the lamp of liberty will burn in your bosoms until there shall no longer be a doubt that all men are created free and equal. ~Abraham Lincoln

Those who deny freedom to others, deserve it not for themselves; and, under a just God, can not long retain it. ~Abraham Lincoln

A man who has never gone to school may steal from a freight car; but if he has a university education, he may steal the whole railroad. ~Theodore Roosevelt

Order without liberty and liberty without order are equally destructive. ~Theodore Roosevelt

Have a great week everyone - watch for great things to be posted on the site this week, including at least one pre-order from Imaginisce! We are expecting a shipment on Wednesday!

Don't forget to pre-order your Cropadile II Big Bite either! Pre-order your Crop-a-dile II Big Bite today, and receive the case with gromets FREE! We had more of these pre-ordered over the weekend and our expected inventory is almost gone, so take advantage of the offer today!

Fun Valentine Ideas

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! It was so great dropping the kiddos off at school today with their sacks full of Valentines. Everyone was grinning from ear to ear as they proudly passed out their special cards.

Valentine cards, just like the holiday, are special. They are little sentiments of affection, not only for your loved ones, but for everyone you appreciate - family, neighbors, co-workers, teachers, and friends. It's that one day of the year where guys can embrace hearts without embarrassment, and where all of us ladies can eat our share of chocolate without any guilt!

As a tribute to this special holiday, and the age old tradition of Valentine giving, we've designed a couple of fun Valentine ideas for you. We hope that you feel inspired by them!

Happy Valentine's Day, from all of us at

http://www.scrapbuglane.com/

Sweet Tradition:

Our first Valentine idea was designed by ScrapBugLane.com design team member, Selestina. She used traditional colors and elements, such as hearts, ribbon, rosy reds, and pretty pinks, to create a sweet treat anyone would enjoy! Selestina started by putting a handful of red and silver Hershey brand kisses in a small, jewel style, ziploc bag. She then created a fold-over tab to adhere to the top of the bags using the Cosmo Cricket Hey Sugar Papers in the 'Cupid' and 'Heart String' patterns. An eyelet set in the corner allows a simple flourish of ribbon, and a dainty die- cut swirl, cut out of Wausau pearlescent paper, adds a touch of whimsy to the front. She finished off the back (not shown) with her daughter's name die-cut from white cardstock. Check out the box full of finished Valentines - simply sweet, simply adorable! I apologize in advance for the size of these pics! I couldn't figure out how to resize them without losing the definition!

This Valentine uses the 'Cupid' pattern cardstock for the fold-over tab. Notice the eyelet and ribbon in the corner. Very cute!

Bags were decorated with tabs cut from the 'Cupid' (viewer's left) and 'Heart String' (viewer's right) paper patterns - Cosmo Cricket 'Hey Sugar' collection. These papers are our monthly featured sale item! To view the entire 'Hey Sugar' collection just click on the title of this post.

Carefully displayed in this festive box, these Valentines are cute alone, but dramatic when shown all together! Imagine walking into class with these.

A Valentine for Boys Who Are "Out of This World":

As the mother of boys, Valentine's Day always poses certain challenges (no pink, no kisses, no flowers, etc.), so this year I went non-traditional and created a Valentine inspired by the last frontier - space! I placed a package of Orbit brand gum in larger size, jewel style, ziploc bags. For a little added interest, I sprinkled stars die-cut from yellow cardstock in the baggie with the gum. I designed a simple, fold-over, 'nose cone' tab for the top of the bag, and a 'booster' style tab for the bottom. I cut these tabs from Wausau metallic card stock (Excalibur Steel for some, Majestic Blue for the others). I added a 'pull out' flame from the bottom 'booster' tab that reads "You're out of this world!"

A Heart with wire antennae, google eyes, and ric-rac legs is the only traditional element on these cards. I used very unlikely papers. The booster flame, heart, and planets were all cut from the 'Hopscotch Kids' pad by K & Company. I've shown the paper patterns I used in one of the photos below.

As a final touch, I wrote the kid's names, or the words 'Thank You', on the bottom tab with a white pen.

This turned out to be a great way to create a Valentine little boys could feel proud of, and they were fun to make (even if gluing on all those antennae did get tedious)!

Three of the finished Valentines show the shape of the top and bottom tabs, designed to resemble a 'nose cone' and 'booster' respectively.

This close up shows the 'pull out' booster flame and message.

This photo shows two of the K & Company 'Hopscotch Kids' paper patterns used. The 'water color' stripes were perfect for the flame 'pull outs', and the planets were simple to cut out from the polka dot design.

Cute for Any Occasion:

Our final Valentine idea was actually designed as a birthday gift, but I thought it was cute enough to use for any occasion, especially Valentine's Day! Design team member, Dede, made this 'card' by first cutting a simple bag out of Wausau Metallic cardstock in 'Sparkling Merlot'. She then embellished the bag with a series of tags, hearts, and flowers cut from the 'Living Life' papers by Around the Block. To add a personal touch, Dede stamped her friend's initial on the side of the bag with white ink - simple and sweet. Rather than tissue paper, Dede chose to line her mini bag with a scrap of tulle.

This bag can be filled with chocolates, jewelry, or even scrapbooking embellishemts (brads, eyelets and the like). This bag happened to be filled with the latter - don't you wish you could peak inside? The end result was a darling, very personal gift for a special friend. Cute and appropriate for a number of occasions!

This miniature bag gets a whimsical touch with tags and shapes cut from Around the Block 'Living Life' papers.

The recipients initial stamped on the side of the bag adds a personal touch. Also note the heart shaped brad on front!

A die cut tab cleverly adhered to the back adds 360 degrees of fun to this three dimensional creation.

We hope you enjoyed all of our Valentine ideas. We want to remind you to check back with our site again tomorrow, where we will be featuring our first monthly 15 on the 15th sale. We've selected 15 great products to place at 15% off, tommorrow only!

Happy Valentine's Day!

CHA Winter '08 - A Little Preview for You!

It's finally here... the much anticipated CHA Winter '08, where, after a long winter, scrapbookers everywhere will get a peak at spring and summer lines from all their favorite companies and designers! Jodi and I have been frantically sorting through stacks of e-mail previews over the last couple of weeks to determine which lines we should pre-order for our customers. We have really attempted to find the best of the best for your spring and summer memories, and we don't think you will be disappointed.

While we can't share the details of every line we've ordered, we can tell you that we have pre-oredered a total of 7 new papers lines from Prima as well as lines from Bo Bunny, Daisy Bucket, Chatterbox, We R Memory Keepers, and Imaginisce - and guess what? We are just getting started! We plan on bringing in a selection of papers from Fancy Pants, K & Company, Making Memories, My Minds Eye, Crate Paper, Sassafrass Lass, and more, just as soon as they have their lines available to order. We've also found tons of fun new embellishments from designers like Heidi Swapp, Chatterbox, and Tim Holtz. In all, we will be bringing approximately 30 new paper lines into the store, as well as more embellishments and acrylic stamps than you can shake a stick at.

Okay, okay, it wouldn't be fair if we didn't share at least a little bit of the fun with you. I've included a couple of sneak peak pics for you below. Here are a handful of the lines we have ordered so far. Let us know what you think, and remember - there's so much more to come! Enjoy!

We couldn't get over the rich warm colors in this line from Prima - one of seven we pre-ordered! We liked every single one of their new lines - absolutely gorgeous!

I don't know if its the colors, the fun combination of patterns, or the splashes of sweet spring that make this line so delightful, but I think it is just about perfect! Look for this and at least two others from Fancy Pants (and let me tell you - the other two lines are just as great)!

Fun, bright, and ready for summer scrapping, we fell in love with the whimsical colors in this line from Daisy Bucket. This is one of three we pre-ordered!

The soft wholesome colors in Bo Bunny's Organic line are perfect for your down to earth prince or princess. This is one of two high quality double sided Bo Bunny lines we are expecting!

While you wait for all our great new lines to arrive, don't forget to pre-order your Cropadile II Big Bite. Pre-Order Your Crop-a-dile Big Bite, and for a limited time, receive The Carrying Case with Gromets for FREE! Another great new product from http://www.scrapbuglane.com/.

Also - don't forget to sign your kids up for the summertime youth Aritst Trading Card (ATC) swap. While your at it, be sure to sign youself up for our online card swap, starting soon!

Hope you enjoyed the peaks as much as Jodi and I enjoyed sharing them with you!

Youth Artist Trading Card Swap - Check it Out!

Hey everyone. I had to blog the exciting news about our first youth Artist Trading Card (ATC) swap! This is a very unique swap that we are putting together for the summer months of June, July, and August, and I am really excited about it.

We will be signing kids up between now and May 15th. You can sign up online by clicking on the button found on the bottom of the swap rules page. What is going to make this swap so fun and interesting is the fact that kids all over the U.S. can participate! We will be dividing kids into two groups 8 - 12 year olds and 13 and up (no one over the age of 18 is elgible for participation). Don't worry- as moms, internet safety is a huge issue for us, and we are doing everything we can to make these swaps safe and fun. Kids will create and swap cards each month by mailing them to the store. We will then sort the cards (giving kids one of their own design and one of each of the other designs) and mail them back to participants. Because everything is handled through the store, kids will never have direct contact with each other. In addition, no information will ever be released about the participants other than their first name and their city/state (or just state if you prefer). Even with permission we cannot and will not release any contact information about our young participants.

Take a look at the complete set of rules by clicking on the title of this post. I am really excited to see what the kids create! It will be fun opening those envelopes of cards each month!

Please consider signing your kids up for this swap, and if you know other kids that might be interested, pass the word on. The groups will be capped at 12 participants each, but we will keep adding groups as long as there is interest. The more kids participating, the more interesting the swap will be!

Valentine's Day Fun

I don't know about the rest of the country, but here in Colorado, we are enjoying a snow day. School is cancelled and the kids are home, which means plenty of time to spend together. I know they will be spending the first half of their day in the snow, but when the newness wears off and their feet turn cold, they'll be inside looking for something to do - so I think we'll spend the afternoon making Valentines together!

Remember when you were a kid and you'd make valentines out of construction paper hearts and dime store doilies? You'd painstakingly apply a string of Elmer's glue then immediately cover it with chunky, messy glitter.

Paper crafting has come a long way since those days, and the huge array of products available for all your Valentine's Day projects is astounding. I started looking around our store for some fun Valentine's Day paper crafting picks - and I came up with a bunch! Check out my picks below, then set a day or afternoon aside to make Valentines with your little sweeties. After all, scrapbooking and papercrafting are about more than preserving memories, they are also about making them.

Here are some of my picks for Valentine's Day papercrafting. You can purchase any and all of these supplies on our site http://www.scrapbuglane.com/.

Fill the paper boxes with chocolates, or present a favorite teacher with a bouquet of flowers that will never die.
• Bo Bunny's Bella Journee 'Paris' Line - Inspired by the city of love, these papers and die cuts will transport you to another world. Absolutely gorgeous!
• "LOVE" Word Album by Bo Bunny - This sturdy chipboard word album was used for our January project. A precious and personal way to tell a husband, mother, sister, or friend how much you love them this Valentine's Day.
• We R Memory Keepers Designer Snaps and Eyelets - Pick up the We R Memory Keepers Designer Snaps and Eyelets in the festive "Love" design, then use your crop-a-dile to set the eyelets and snaps on all your projects. Don't forget to pre-order the Crop-a-dile II Big Bite while you are at it. We will give you a free case and grommets with every Big Bite you pre-order. These are selling out fast, so order today!
• Heidi Swapp Foto Folders - In Pink! Use on layouts, or use as cards, these versatile folders are perfect in pink and a number of other colors.
• My Minds Eye Large Bohemia Gems - Add a little bling to all your Valentine's Day project with these large adhesive gems. What could spell true love more than the glimmer of gems?

Wow! That is quite a list of product (and I think I really could have added more). After doing my homework, I may have to wait a few days to start my Valentine's Day projects. I think there are at least a few of these items I need to pick-up from the store!
