The scheduling angels were on my side for this class; luckily I will be back from our trip to Italy just in time to take Lisa's class. That bird on an egg stamp is one of my favorites!



Webster's Pages Botanical Christmas papers have been restocked, as well as more of the 6x6 paks. And red chipboard book bracket-shape covers from Teresa Collins has been placed near the WP papers. These are the covers used for the 12 Days of Christmas book class. There are 2 covers to a pak; I was able to purchase them at a very special reduced price that I am passing along to you . . . only $1.25 per pak. Please check 'em out!


We feel quite honored when a customer brings us one of their art projects. Thank you's to Andrea for gifting us with this beautiful art tag . . .

Susie, Marj, Dianne and Deb K., have been very busy making more sample cards to show you some fantastic cards that can be made with the stamps, dies and other art products you may purchase at Art 'n Soul. You'll be extremely proud to share them with the special people in your life, and they will feel quite honored that you gifted them with a one-of-a-kind treasure from you.
