I know I've said it before, but I am going to keep adding to this Black & Cream collection until you are all absolutely, positively sick of it (because I really love this line)...
Everything is due to ship in May (Creative Imaginations staggers its releases so that stores can continually receive new product throughout the year...hence the long wait).
Again, if you are a retailer and would like me to email you the Narratives catalog pages, please shoot me off an email at [email protected] (I only have PDF files of the Narratives catalog pages, I do not have physical catalogs to mail but you can contact Creative Imaginations at 800 942 6487 to request a catalog by mail).
More die-cut papers.
Transparencies, punch-out cardstock alphabet and another easel album.
Cardstock stickers, a 12x12 album, epoxy brads, epoxy stickers and die-cut felt ribbon.
Heart shaped Journaler's Notebook and a new paper pack.
I've got a bunch of new rub-ons too that I will post here in the next day or so.
Sorry to anyone who is waiting on an email from me (I am swamped right now).
I have been hitting REFRESH on this page all night... it's 12:21am EST and YAY - I CAN SEE IT AND I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What?!
I have to wait until MAY?!?!
:-/
