I heard there was a 'full house' for this afternoon's Journal Club meeting. I had plans to be there but just as I was about to pack up to head south, the washi paper from Hanko Designs was delivered. I couldn't wait to open the box and check those new paper designs in . . . they're gorgeous and they'll be at the store tomorrow morning!

From the Penny Black blog, some wonderful inspiration from both Jill Foster and Heather Telford.

Take some time this weekend to stop in at Art 'n Soul to go through the Penny Black catalog. Penny Black is open catalog right now at the store, and I cannot wait to put my list together at the store this Sunday.

From Impression Obsession, another beautiful card from Dina Kowal. I always love her mixed media art.

Patti was busy at the store today. She put this display together to showcase the latest order to arrive at the store today . . . Dreamweaver Stencils. Patti has such a talent for making our display tables look so gorgeous and inviting!

As you can see from the various open designs, many of the Dreamweaver Stencils also are perfect for zentangling. And with the new Radiant Neon inks and Pico Embellishments from IMAGINE Crafts/Tsukineko, there are more possibilities to have fun and make something beautiful with the Dreamweaver Stencils.

Alissa is at the store tomorrow . . . it's been a while since she's worked at Art 'n Soul. Please stop in and say 'hi' . . . I know she'd love to see you.
