Happy Thanksgiving!🦃

 Sharon didn’t intend to do a video on Wednesday night so I didn’t intend to do a post today but guess what? Here we both are! I’m composing as I watch the Bills, hoping for a good outcome. We’re going out to dinner later on as none of us are great turkey eaters so we’re opting for a little variety. 

Let’s see what Sharon has for us this week. Sharon has color charts for the new OLO markers. You can see Sharon starting to fill in some of her colors. Besides letting you keep track of what colors you have, this chart lets you compare with your Copics to fill in any missing colors and to coordinate with your existing colors.

We know Deco Foil for their beautiful colors and how they work with laminators for adding foils but you couldn’t use them with the new hot foiling machines. Not anymore, Deco Foil now makes foils you can use with your Glimmer and other foiling machines. 

Many of you may already have masking paper but for those of you who don’t, Sharon will be doing a demo in a future FB video.

New dies from Maker’s Movement. Lots of classic, foundational dies you need to have in your stash like this nested tag die. Always a plus is the price point of these dies. 

I missed the front of this die but I believe it reads, ‘get well’ in a really nice script. 

Mugs, cups and more

I think this is a gift card holder. However, it has a perforated paper piece so it may be a notebook.

This is a bubblegum machine. I’d like to see this one made up. 

Again, a great nested banner die

Small add-ons 

More from Maker’s Movement 

We also have Tim Holtz’s new Media Grip Mat. 

Sharon put it down on her work surface and then added paper and tried a little ink blending and her paper stuck really well. 

You can also ink, paint and heat on this mat. 

This lets us lead into a new stamping platform by Lisa Horton from the UK. Many of you may know Lisa’s embossing folder designs, well now she’s branching out. Sharon loves the size of this platform plus the versatility. It come# with a lot and it does a lot. 

Check out all the functions of this platform. I’ve circled all that comes with this platform and just to the right of my circle you can see the dimensions of this platform. Also, the price point of this platform at $70.99 makes it very affordable and comparable to a MISTI. 

It’s not only a stamping platform but a blending station due to the silicone mat that comes with it. 

Keep the foam platform in place and you can use it with your acrylic stamps.

Remove the foam mat and you can use your rubber mounted stamps. 

Lastly, Sharon talked about the die cut club. I’ll admit I don’t have a lot of info about this. I do know members get discounts on not only dies but other items in the store. I believe it costs $79.99 a year, but don’t quote me. CALL the STORE for specifics. I believe these are part of a coupon book members can get. 

We have so many great sales this weekend like ALL PATTERNED PAPER 50% OFF!! Through Saturday. You have to come to the store to take advantage of all the great sales including the in-store specials. If you do call, makes sure you have exact product company and item name to make it quicker for you and us. 

We only have to deal with the snow on the ground this weekend but I think this works for all of us. 

Enjoy your celebrations with those you love near and far. We may be back with a video on Wednesday with Mona. Sharon will be on her way to Vermont. We hope to see you in the store this weekend. I may have to make a visit…until then, Happy Thanksgiving and above all Stay Safe!🦃🥧
