slip, sliding away...

tried to make it into the shop this morning, but between not being able to see because of the rain freezing on my windshield and the "fishtailing" of many cars around me, i decided to do a u-turn and return home. so....sorry but the inkspot won't be open today-thursday 2/21- and please call before coming on friday, too.
we just know all will be okay by saturday as we've got a full house for the techniques class! today will be a great day to work on the forthcoming classes and on some new "products" that the inkspot will be introducing over the next few weeks! of course, i'd rather be stamping!
be careful out there and take it slowly!!!

hearts to you....

all valentine images and kits are on sale (excluding great impressons)! we thought at first 14% off (as in feb. 14), but decided to mark them down 25% as our valentine treat to you! some darling ones remain including amuse, memory box and northwoods! get by while the getting's good!
oh, and you must see the new memory box stamps and samples. the combination of colors (think: cornucopia, gingerbread, pixie dust, tea leaves) and images simply make stunningly clean and striking cards.
