Sizzix has released a wonderful new caddy designed to hook to the side of your Big Shot machine. We found used it in our hotel room for the essentials!

As always, Penny Black has so many classy samples in their booth. Here is one of them.

More samples with Photo Play paper. I really hope I ordered this line I love the colors!

We ran into this lovable monster while in Disneyland. 

We will have 1 final blog post recapping CHA soon.

CHA recap

It has been a busy 2016 so far, I have been in California for 10 days for the CHA Mega trade show. As always it was a busy show with lots to see and do (think 14 hour days). Normally, I blog from the show however the wifi in our hotel was absolute crap to put it mildly even after we were upgraded to the premium wifi. So better late than never here is my quick recap of the show. Crafty Capers is taking preorders for many of the items we saw on the show floor so contact us if there is something you would like!

Linda and I took a great class with John at Imagine Crafts. Watch for a special announcement about John soon!

An interesting owl fold card done with a Sizzix die.

Linda does not work unless she has coffee served at the Spellbinder booth!

Our annual "look how much stuff we have to pack" photo. Stuffed it into 2 suitcases with a tiny bit of room to spare.

Linda's new ride embellished by Crystal Ninja. This car is in the Guinness Book of World records.

I will be posting more photos as I get them organized!

Just in time for Christmas!

The new December Distress color arrived over the weekend! Thanks to Canada Post for working an extra long week and doing deliveries on a weekend! Now we have an extra day before Christmas to pick up the new color!
In case you missed it, the December Distress color is a red called Candied Apple.

 

We also received the new Distress Glitter Dust in Vintage Platinum that Tim announced in October. It looks like a beautiful neutral color great for Christmas but also all year long as well.

 We have limited quantities of all these new products so hurry in so you don't miss out.

Carpe Diem by Simple Stories

Crafty Capers has 1 Carpe Diem Robin's Egg (blue) planner left in stock plus some fun accessories to decorate your planner. I am totally old school and love a paper planner. I'm having so much fun organizing the planner just the way I like it with stickers, charms and extra pages. If you want more information on the planners here is a video from Simple Stories all about them.

 Other planner colors can be ordered however it is unlikely they will be here in time for Christmas but if you need a different color let us know. Cost for the planner is $45 CDN. Accessory prices vary and are in limited supply, in fact, Simple Stories is out of many of the accessories until the new year. Stop by the store if you want to see how my planner is set up.

Designs by Ryn Stamps now in the store!

I'm pleased to announce that Crafty Capers is now carrying Desgns by Ryn stamps. These stamps are very deep, probably the deepest we carry, red rubber unmounted sheets. Put a little EZ Mount foam on the back and they stamp like a dream!
