FALL IS IN THE AIR @ YOUR MAINE STAMPER

Even though fall doesn't officially arrive until this next weekend, fall is everywhere at Your Maine Stamper!  There are some lovely new displays by Jo  Moore and Peggy Pennabere.  Jo secured the stamps from the two Texas companies and has them artfully displayed on and around a tiny stepladder on top of the black bookcases. She and Peggy also rearranged our shop storage area and angled the big wood cabinet to better display the 6X6 pads of paper and thus opened up the second part of the shop to make it easier to see what's there.  There is also a great display of Coutney Ricker's stamps now in the big blue cabinet up front, featuring fall and holiday stamps.  Halloween continues to be a major focus throughout the shop.  We have a great collection of fall and holiday papers in, too.  We've all begun to think about Christmas and winter--I think the chilly nights have contributed to that--and have been browsing the latest catalogs of holiday stamps, papers, and dies for inspiration.

Don't forget about our stamp of the month--a cardinal with pine cones from DRS Designs @ 40% off.

What's New for September @ Your Maine Stamper

The shop elf managed to get quite a bit accomplished while the store was closed this weekend.  Check out this new paper rack which holds most of the Bo Bunny Double Dot and Flourish papers, attached  to the white wire triangle rack and with LaBlanche stamps around it.

Rearranged items on the spinner racks, these two and the one for tools in the back, spreading things out to make it easier to see what's there.  Check out those really great stamps from Michael Strong!

So much cool stuff in for Halloween that it's taking over everywhere!  There's a really nice display on the large brown open shelving unit in the middle of the room...

And the large dark cupboard by the window is full...

 And one of the front counter spaces has even more Halloween goodies!

Bo Bunny Apple Cider papers and other papers with rich fall hues have moved to the table by the tree.

The other paper racks now have some empty spaces for new papers!  Look for fall and winter papers on this display.

And this looks like the STAMP OF THE MONTH for September:

New products are arriving all the time!

Remember to save the date for the 16th Anniversary Party on Saturday, September 15th!!!
