The March issue of Creating Keepsakes has finally arrived, and we're so proud of Allison's third article in the magazine, an eight-page tutorial on how to use your photos to form large shapes on your pages -- like rectangles, circles, squares, stars, etc. The layouts in the article are all hers, and I think you'll love them!

We also received more copies of 101 Expert Solutions, which sold out the first time we had it in about a day! The idea book combines what used to be the Hall of Fame issue with articles and layouts from the CK Dream Team. Allison was fortunate enough to be one of only five people chosen for the CK Dream Team for the second year in a row! We also have Brian Tippets' new book, Get Creative with Type.

This is one of the two most fun times of the year around Scrapbook Generation. All of the new CHA products are starting to roll in, and it's Christmas almost every day!

My Mind's Eye...
All of this company's new goodies arrived today, and Stacey is working hard to get everything priced and out on the shelves. It all should be in place by the time we open on Tuesday. MME always comes up with something different for their new collections, and this time, they have incorporated die-cut pages into their groups! We have every single thing they came out with at winter CHA! I won't be here tomorrow, but I'll sweet talk Stacey into putting pics on the blog!

BasicGrey...
The new Marrakech and Porcelain collections will arrive on Wednesday, and again, we'll have every single new item!

BoBunny...
All seven new collections will be here Thursday!

Teresa Collins Designs...
Five new collections will arrive sometime this week, I just don't know the specific day.

Pink Paislee...
Four new collections will arrive within the next two weeks. This Missouri company is one of my new favorites! We used two of their groups for our Super-Saver Scrapbooking sessions, and everyone seems to love their style.

Retreat updates...
The March 20 retreat is down to the last two spots. The March 13 retreat has less than 10 spots.
