The mid-release bandwagon...


Theresa Collins... *Travelogue Stamps*

It seems the *industry* cannot get enough of new product - so much so, most manufacturers are following suit and releasing new product mid-season... {much to the chargrin of shoppers who have barely scratched the surface of CHA Winter... and shops who are already discounting lines that are just a few months old!!} It seems that if times are tough... the answer is to throw *more* at it...

Jenni Bowlin... *Trendy*


Daisy D's... *Chloe Marie*

KI & SEI...
Need a refreshing list of mid-season releases? ...wish granted!

BasicGrey: Euphoria
Daisy Ds: Chloe Marie
American Crafts: Glitter Thickers
KI Memories: Bloom
Bo Bunny: (American Themed... phew - no need to buy!)
Scenic Route: (American Themed... phew - but I still want it lol!!)
SEI: Poppy
Jenni Bowlin: Trendy
Theresa Collins: Travelogue
Cosmo Cricket: Hello Sunshine
My Minds Eye: Garden Party



Some lines I already have earmarked as *must haves* - and this is BEFORE the July show... with the latest petrol pinch and price of fuel sky-rocketing... it will be an interesting challenge ahead for crafters and for suppliers to get the balance right. Just TOOOOOOO many lovely designers releasing perfect products...

i'm not even looking too closely at the papers - my back stash has reached monumental proprtions - quite literally, it is heading for the ceiling in a vertical pile. I've tried digi print as you go papers but it's not good for impulse creativity and I miss the smell of freshly acquired paper. But I MUST have some of those Teresa Collins stamps - they are all fabulous, and I need them now..
