One of my FAVORITE new Accucut dies is the new 11 1/2″ bloom die! Look at these layouts Greta created using the new Creative Cafe foil papers from Creative Imaginations! Layer them, add chipboard and more!

The foil papers in both of these layouts are amazing…. Does a store near you have these NEW foil papers yet? If not, send them to this link! All foil papers are shipping now, and even more impressive in person.

Linda created two more layouts also using this versatile die We were thinking there are probably some great home decor ideas that we could use this die for too! Placemats, hanging art, etc… Stay tuned, more great previews coming!

 

 

Kids are getting out of school for the summer, the weather in MOST parts of the country is getting warmer… and the summer season of activities begins! From swimming to baseball, we wanted to inspire you with these new layouts using Creative Cafe’s latest products.

The die cut number paper is one of our favorites…

At the Creative Cafe, we love FELT!   Do you?  When we brought together, 2 of our favorite things, felt and butterflies, the results were just adorable, new bulk felt butterflies!  

They were originally released in July 2008, but didn’t receive enough orders to put them in production

Creative Imaginations will again feature them at CHA Winter in Anaheim, and they will NEED to get enough orders to have a chance to hit your favorite stores.  

Do you like these butterflies as much as we do?  If so, tell your favorite store owner that you want these cuties.  It’s only through shoppers like you that they can reach stores everywhere.   

We need YOUR HELP to SAVE the Creative Cafe Butterflies! Help us spread the word with your favorite LSS, or online retailer.

Help us save the butterflies. Would you buy these?  Do you want to shop for these in your favorite store?   Share your thoughts here on these butterflies and help us let retailers know how much we want to create projects with these.  In tough economic times, products are only possible with the interest from consumers and retailers like you.    So we need your input.

Comment here with your thoughts and love for these cuties and we’re going to draw 3 winners for a Creative Cafe assorted prize package from this post.  Refer a friend to this thread and you will be entered twice!!   THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!

See if you can pick out the new AccuCut dies in these fun projects.   This is a pretty big hint (I think.)

There are at least 2 new dies in here (but come in different sizes) and almost everything you see in these projects was cut with our Creative Cafe AccuCut dies.   If you want to have fun with these dies and more, like the projects you see here, tell your local scrapbook store to RUN, don’t walk to the AccuCut booth at the CHA Winter Show this week in California or to give Accucut a call.

Sparkley, shiny and shimmery… are how we describe the new chipboard Glitter Words! Linda used the “joy” glitter word along with the lots of new Creative Cafe embellishments and patterned papers! (Don’t you just love those new buttons on the snowman?)

 

 

 

 

 

The glitter words come in five additional phrases: Merry Christmas, Noel, HoHoHo, Peace and Cheers! They’re perfect for home decor projects, mini books and layouts. Use one to add just a little bit of “bling” to your next project! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enter to Win… a chipboard Glitter Word of your very own, by posting your favorite new product type. Is it glitter embellishments? Is it our colored shipping tags? We want to know! 

More cool winter ideas… Greta does great cards, and this set is no exception! See how many of our new products you can find in this photo! Hint: There are at least FOUR. From new flocked papers to our new buttons, we have plenty of other things to show you during the BLOG PARTY!

Creative Cafe stores… we want to hear if you’re out there. We’re starting a new list for email posts especially for you! Please post and get added to our new list!

Linda designed both of these amazing pages with our newest patterned paper basics, Creative Cafe polka dots and florals! When we first started designing our new collection, it was important to us that we had some of our best-selling designs created in EVERY COLOR! We wanted to be able create projects for any season, that matched all our other embellishments and existing papers.

 

So here they are! Gotta love them… orange, sky, pink, lime and red! The best part is, that they’re two-sided. You get a graphic polka dot on one side, and an elegant floral on the other. We’ll showcase several projects during our Blog Party using these amazing basics! From chipboard books to layouts, we love these “must have” basics! 

WIN a whole set of these patterned papers by telling us what project you’d create with them! All our winners from this week, will be posted on Saturday, January 10th. GOOD LUCK!

We’ll be posting several holiday projects this week to inspire your creativity for the season. Greta created this holiday layout using several new products you should be seeing in your local or on-line stores now! Love these new printed tags that you can journal on, combined with the Creative Cafe Accucut dies: scalloped circle die and “joy” word die. Take plenty of photos in the next few weeks to remember 2008. 

Christmas is ONLY 9 days away! 

Just a quick reminder that there is still time to enter the Creative Cafe Giveaway for a set of FREE Accucut die cut papers! Just scroll down a few posts, and share your favorite FALL recipe! We’ll be giving away two sets of this adorable scallop slotted paper in solid colors next Wednesday! You won’t want to miss out…

It may seem a little early for Halloween but most stores are already stocked and ready to go! I thought since we just turned the corner into September, it was time for some Halloween inspiration. I absolutely LOVE the color combinations in the Spirit line as they are so versatile. By combining the orange, green and a little black, the line is well suited for your Halloween photos. This page is super easy to put together but packs a bunch thanks to those AccuCut dies!

Thanks for looking!

Greta
