NEW STUFF!
Lydia keeps getting new things in all the time!  Papers and embellishments, stamps and inks, tools and  ready-made cards and gifts.  Need a thank you for your child's teacher?  Something for that Father's Day card?  Invitations for the Fourth of July? 

We're hoping to have the owner of MAGENTA stamps at the shop for a trunk show and two classes in late July, a Friday PM and Saturday AM.  We think the classes will be $30 each and we can take ten people in each class.  If this is something you'd like to do, let Lydia know and we'll put you on the list to notify you of the details once they are finalized.  I will also post info on the blog.
