We're back from CHA...  Man, was that a shopping trip!  Who'd think it would be that easy to spend that much money in only 3 days?!  Well, I know it's possible, but didn't think there would be the same magnitude of great products this time around.  I stand corrected, and we ordered everything I thought would be a great fit for our store and our wonderful customers.  What did we order?  You can find some clues on our blog, but you'll see new products flowing in in the next couple weeks.  I'll keep you informed on our blog regularly, as well as our semi-monthly newsletters.  This was the first time Mary and Liz went to the show, and we are all so excited to share with you!

New Product Update
Indie GirlThe Calm...
 
Welcome, Indie Girl! Sassafras' new line is probably one of my favorites thus far. Indie Girl is the perfect blend of Sass and Vintage... I hope you'll love it too.  While we were at CHA, Country Lifewe got a few new Cricut cartridges in. We now have Winter Frolic, Happy Hauntings, Rock Princess and Country Life. A few are still available for purchase.  We received a new batch of ribbons from May Arts Apple Cidertoday, and they are gorgeous!  Plus, we just received the newest (adorable) line from Imaginisce...  Apple Cider!
 
We're so excited about what we ordered at CHA.  We'll start getting products in the next couple weeks, and we'll keep you posted when new arrivals are in.  To stay current, visit our blog for regular updates at www.ScrappyChicLivonia.blogspot.com.

Featured Manufacturer
AdhesivesTherm O Web
 
For over 30 years Therm O Web has served as a prominent adhesive manufacturer across the world. Therm O Web, a family owned company, began to explore the craft and fabric markets in the early 80s. Based on the findings, we launched a family of Iron-On Adhesives branded HeatnBond® in the fall of 1989, which was an overnight success! The success of HeatnBond led Therm O Web to expand their adhesive line in the fast growing hobby and scrapbooking markets. Therm O Web has since crafted many family brands such as... ZotsTM, SuperTapeTM, Sticky Dots, PeelnStick, Memory Tape Runner XL and so much more!

We are offering a deal on Therm O Web adhesives through the month of August with the coupon below.
