Thanks so much to all you shoppers who attended our Super Bowl Sale and so kindly helped us clear out so much overstocked merchandise. I tried to steer the ones of you who had stacks of paper more than a foot high over to Karin's lane so I wouldn't have to work so hard!

Anyway, now it's time to bring in all the new products!

First to arrive...everything new by My Mind's Eye. This is one of the largest offerings that MME has ever done, and we'll be getting every single wonderful item this week. We plan to have everything priced and out on the shelves by mid-day on Wednesday. (And if you want to take a sneak peek, just go to mymindseye.com and let your eyes feast on all the beautiful new products!)

Next to arrive...Graphic 45. I just spoke to a representative of the company this morning, and our order leaves their warehouse later today! I don't know a specific arrival date yet, but I'll be sure to let you know the minute I do. I'm guessing that the order will arrive at the end of this week or the first of next week. We're getting all three new collections!

Other new items will be arriving in an avalanche over the next few weeks and months, including orders from Bazzill (flowers, a smaller version of border strips, embossed cardstock, and more); Best Creations (three glittery collections in girl, boy, and wedding themes); BasicGrey (several collections); BoBunny (everything new); Crate Paper (several collections); Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker (all her new groups); Creative Imaginations; KI Memories (six groups); Melissa Frances (pastel papers, crepe paper for embellishments, vintage mini-albums); Maya Road (new albums, chipboard sets, Maya Mist, and more); My Little Shoebox (six collections); Pink Paislee (everything new); Prima (tons of new flower sets and bling sets); Reminisce (graduation, Prom, Easter, camping, and more sports stuff than anyone will know what to do with!); Scrap Within Reach (two collections); Sugartree (more outdooorsy papers); Tim Holtz (lots of new goodies); Three Bugs in a Rug (four collections); and Webster's Pages (two vintage collections). And there will be more!

We're also beginning an awesome new program with We R Memory Keepers (they make those great leather 3-ring binder albums). Each month for the next year, we'll be getting a massive collection from them of papers, embellishments, clear stamps, and other coordinating items. Each collection is themed to that certain month, and the first four I've seen are really exciting!
