Please do go to their web site here to make sure you are amongst the first to know when new products are released as well as their blog where there is always plenty of inspiration to be had.

1) Wood Mounted - Mixed Media 4037K 2) Slapstick - 40-025

3) An invitation to be our Guest Designer in September

Can't share a picture of this one, so you just need to imagine !

4) Christmas Troupe - 4017K

Now on the our theme for this month where we are staying very seasonal with:
