Cool, love checking out new paper lines. I would like that to use on my ATC cards or other mixed media related crafting. Right now I have so much paper I don't need to purchase anymore, all I need is to be able to purchase more time in a day so I can use up what I have and start purchasing more. Thanks for sharing.

It was really pretty in person. I know her sales are down about 40%, so I do go in and spend more than I normally would at her place. Today I came home with a Graphic 45 line, Catch of the Day and a die I probably could have found online for less. And fish brads... because everyone needs fish brads. |

I have a LSS that stocks a lot of brands that I have never heard of before, lots from Europe and some from South Africa. It is really encouraging to see so many new paper craft and stamping brands available to us. The only thing for me is that although beautiful none of them are really my style but I do try and get a few pieces here and there. I recently picked up a couple of cut apart sheets from a company called Lemon Craft that had lots of teacups and cakes.

950nancy, that is a really pretty paper line. Love the blue and the gears. Trying to keep our LSS in business, too. So nice to be able to walk into a store and actually SEE the papers and other goodies!

People comment on it and she sells a lot of it that way. I think those FB lives are keeping her open. |

I ordered a sheet of a denim look Asuka paper from ACOT, just to see it in person. I like it. I'd definitely order their paper again.

My LSS, Frank Garcia Studio If my LSS was Frank Garcia Studio I would be in there constantly and be more broke than I am. So I have read Frank Garcia's name for years and in my head pictured the Frank B. from Trading Spaces fame. He was 72. It never crossed my mind that I didn't know who Frank Garcia was until I found a bunch of his paper line from a second hand scrap store and looked him up on YouTube. I've been laughing at my airheaded blunder all day. I also briefly tried to answer my labeler today when my watch rang, so I am thinking I need to get a job or at least out more often. |

My LSS is Simple Pleasures in Colorado Springs. She's been around for over 20 years. She has tons of inventory for scrappers, but lots of stuff for card makers and people who do mixed media. She does Facebook Lives every Tuesday night to show off new product. I think that has been keeping her alive for the last 15 months. If you ever are in town, she's worth the stop. I used to go to that store in the Loveland Mall. We used to have crops in the old Kohl's there. |

I remember back when Treasure Box was open and the other one that was off of Drake I think, they had great Friday night/weekend crops that included food. One was a chocolate crop and it.was.epic. |

It went so well, that every Tuesday the owner does a facebook live to show new clothes that come in and you can claim it, pay for it and then pick it up later. It also helps that she is a doll and super fun to watch/interact with. <3 |

My LSS is carrying new lines also, a lot of them from overseas. I bought some beautiful Mintay for my spring cards.
