Adorable memory matching game for our little ones.  Very cute Basic Grey illustrations.  Great for teaching memory skills, colors & more.  I had to have a set for Gracie :)

ABC Cards Alphabet Art... these 26 friendly, funky, petite posters are a stack of clever flash cards for any little person to learn their ABC's & other laughable pearls of wisdom.  They also make cute wall decor.  Cute illustrations like C - Cowboy on a cow dangling a carrot with a cat & a cupcake :)

New canvas wall art ready for embellishing!!  Basic Grey has taken their signature style and put it in wall art form.  Their chipboard letters are great for embellishing and creating that perfect saying for your walls of your craft room or nursery or playroom.  The Canvases are ready to embellish...can't wait to play with one of these!

More new goodies on the way too...
Have a great Leap Day,

Also new in the store is American Crafts, Dear Lizzy's new Neopolitan line

Its got some really great papers & new & cool embellishments.  This line actually sold completely out of all embellishments BEFORE I could get it up on the walls.  The lucky customers that were in the store shopping that day snatched them all up.  So, ALL the embellishments are already on reorder and should be here within the week.  Ask to get put on 'the list' for what you want and we'll hold it for you :). 

Look at these cool new Butterflies... they are already stitched and diecut, so all you do is pull them up and voila, they are ready to hang across your page :)  So fun.  & they are available in Banners too.  See the ruffle paper??  Its really fun to add dimension to your page or cut up and make flowers.  I can't wait to play with all this stuff...

I'm off to the Retreat...keep up with us on Facebook this weekend.  Happy shopping :)
Toodles,
Sara

We have mysterious things going on this month at The City.  To get us in the mystery "mindset" we are beginning to decorate for the Halloween season.  Which will be perfect for our upcoming appearance in a Discovery channel documentary :)  Yes, you read this correctly... The Discovery Channel approached Sara one day last week about using the City to film for an upcoming documentary.  Filming will take place tonight and we will certainly let you know when the documentary is going to air.  But, trust us...when we say the plot is mysterious and even hard to imagine for the spookiest of minds!

Also, we have a special City Chick digging into the past of our 100 year old home.  Who knows what crazy things she will find out!  All of the mysteries we are being presented with over the next few weeks has lead right into the November retreat theme... The City Girls Murder Mystery Mountain Retreat... :)

Wow! Here we are in 2011 – how weird is that??? I hope you all had a WONDERFUL start to the New Year however you celebrated it! My hubby and I went to Asheville for the weekend and stayed in a very cozy little B&B.

I recommend it if you ever are in the need for a quick getaway. You can check them out at Inn on Main. Of course if it’s a girls weekend you’re wanting don’t forget about the retreat we’re giving away in February FREE to one lucky person! Sign up for our Feb 10th-13th retreat in the mountains and you could be the lucky one!

I have seen lots of Year in Review type albums around and its seems like a very cute idea to get a snapshot of what the year looked like.

I’m thinking of doing one – you could even do one now for this coming year and fill it in as you go kind of like the December Daily album……. Anyone interested taking this as a class?? (not the one pictured above but one of my creations…) Let me know and if there are enough people interested I might just do that!

Hope you’re enjoying these last days with the kids before we head back into the school routine!
