New Bella BLVD, Fancy Pants and the New Copic Marker Colors

Hi Everyone,

Another busy day at the store.  As soon as we put out the new Copic Markers today, they were disappearing.  There are still some left but I need to order more.


The new Bella Blvd is full of great colors and patterns.


I'll have photos of the Fancy Pants things tomorrow.

We have the new Just Cards magazine and look at Lisa Hetrick's stamp on the cover!
