Bella Carta at Art 'n Soul

New ribbons, washi tapes, Christmas papers, and holiday embellishments were introduced at Art 'n Soul's Christmas Party this last Sunday. In case you weren't there, or you didn't see it all, here it is . . .

Graphic 45's 'Twas the Night Before Christmas collection:

Please allow me to digress for just a moment. Many of you have purchased Graphic 45's An Eerie Tale papers at Art 'n Soul. I just saw this on the Graphic 45 blog and thought . . . "what a great idea!"

Included with this particular blog posting is a terrific Halloween card and Fall Decor piece, all from An Eerie Tale collection, too.

Here's the Christmas paper collection, Joyous!, from My Mind's Eye, as well as the accompanying embellishments (including a washi tape set) . . .

There are 6x6 paper paks on order; the ones that were sent had been packed poorly in the shipping box and they are being returned.

And here are some embellishments from Prima . . . I love those little acrylic tiles!

Best of all, Little B came up with beautiful washi tapes for the holiday season or any other special occasion you want to celebrate. There are a few more that are not shown, so please check them all out! The packaging is designed so the tape may be 'cut' from the built-in cutter.

For your last-minute Halloween projects:

And more ribbons for year-round use and for the holidays . . .

This intricate designed ribbon is adhesive-backed so you
don't have to worry about how to tack it down.

this is a close-up of the beautiful pearl and lace
ribbon shown above on the left

don't you love those little Christmas Stockings?
and for fall, the bottom ribbon are small cut-out leaves with embossing detail

these are the only colors of tulle I could order

the nautical ribbon is embroidered so either side of the ribbon
will work . . . navy blue or light gray/white; and as I look at
the ship's wheel, I am thinking they could be used for other uses, i.e.,
the center of stars or snowflakes!

From IMAGINE Crafts, more of the Vertigo™ sheets are in! All 6 of the designs.

More Shimmer Sheetz! from Elizabeth Craft Designs are also in. There were a couple of customers looking for the Light Blue Iridescent and that is in as well. The new Red Iris is going to look so fabulous for the holidays, as well as the new Light Blue Metallic. If you cannot decide on a single color, the multi-packs are now available, too.

Here are some of Marj's Christmas cards she shared at the Christmas Party.
