Carl Precision Trimmer - $100 (plus tax and actual shipping)
This has to be one of our most exciting finds. We are constantly looking for a trimmer that cuts straight and is versatile enough for taking on the road or working at home. The salesperson showed us a lot of great trimmers and then said "I've got this other one, but it's too sophisticated for basic scrapbooking." So he thought. We are in LOVE! This trimmer has a self-sharpening rotary blade (no refills ever!). It can cut down to the smallest sliver of paper with exactness and no tearing or feathering. But the best part is that it has a retractable slice, which means you pull the blade down to cut and it automatically recoils back to the top, making cutting effortless. It is very lightweight and comes in a nice box with a handle so if we need to ship it to you, it won't cost too much.
We had already chosen all the monthly packs to offer you for the next few months, then we stopped by the Glitz Girls booth. It was one of those moments where we should've justed WALKED AWAY but we decided to offer you 3 packs this month instead of not buying this beautiful line of paper and embellishments. So, when the box arrived, I had to pull out the embellishments and play around with them. Holy cow! The peekaboos are so fun to work with - much better than most of the transparencies on the market. The bling is extra big and coordinates perfectly. You also get a roll of heart designed washi tape and a package of die cut designs. Again, we couldn't decide which products not to buy, so we bought them all (thus the higher price for this kit).
Fourteen - $25
A new designer appeared at CHA - Maggie Holmes - and we fell in love with her style and her personally. This pack shows off four of her beautiful papers (and the thickness of the paper is awesome - heavy and easy to work with). As usual, our photos don't do this justice in showing off how great the embellishments and designs are. Included are a pack of new Thickers alphabet stickers, wood veneer cards with beautiful colors and fun designs, a set of fabric bows and a package of fabric yo-yo clips with extra bling.
Love Letters - $25
BoBunny has done it again with a beautiful array of papers that coordinate and add variety to your projects. This kit is topped off with bling in unique colors and layered chipboard stickers with so much detail that you won't need to do much more to make your projects complete.
