A penny for your thoughts...

So, in case you didn't see my post last weekend...my local scrapbook store, the one I design for, is closing. It was quite unexpected and I am at a loss for where I will get all my great crafting goodies now. :( Last Saturday they let the Design Team come to the store, while it was closed to the public, to pre-shop the closing sale. It was soooo sad...everyone was just walking around not knowing what to buy or how much and not having any fun at all because the reason we were shopping and getting a good deal was because our favorite store was closing. I did of course buy a ton a stuff but when new products start coming out, especially after summer CHA I know I will be wanting some. So if you have an online scrapbook store that you shop at I would love to hear about it! Ideally it would carry My Mind's Eye products and have reasonable shipping.

Okay, now I do actually have a card to share with you all today too. I used the 'With a Cherry on Top' kit from Caffinated Cropper.

I thought this card turned out nicely with a kind of picnic/fair feel to it. Isn't the paper and banner cute?! The cork that is included in this kit can be punched easily. I used my scalloped circle punch on it without any problems. The little red rhinestones are not part of the kit...those are Taylored Expressions tiny twinkles which I love! :)

Check out Amy's blog if you are interested in purchasing this kit and to see lots of inspiration by her customers and design team too!
