Stampers Delight




Whipper Snapper has arrived! With the cute designs of snowmen, mice, santa, flowers, elephants, some designs especially for the guys in our lives, and so much more. All rubber mounted on wood and ready to stamp your projects.
Also arrived this week is a nature line of stamps from Stampscape. Create your own scenery images with stamps.
And of coarse stamps need ink! Scrap & Bean has a new selection of inks and smooch spritz to choose from. There is also a good supply of Copic Markers for your projects. Haven't used Copics yet? Sign up for the Introduction to Copic Markers class, taught by Copic Certified Instructor: Camille!

It's Haunting!

Haunting is a line of papers that compares to a walk through an old haunted house. This great color combination of black and kraft is topped off with flocked images. When you see this paper, you can't resist touching it. I love working with paper that feels this good to handle. You can find it now, on the shelves at Scrap & Bean.






































Lost & Found

Lost & Found is a vintage line from My Minds Eye which has glitter throughout the paper lines. It adds just the right amount of bling to make your projects sparkle. Any project created with this paper is going to be especially beautiful! Come on in to Scrap & Bean to see, feel, and enjoy this new line.

Exciting Happenings at Scrap & Bean


As an avid scrapbooker, cardmaker and stamper it is a dream come true to become the new owner of what I have felt is the greatest papercraft store. I look forward to meeting all of you that frequent this quaint crafting destination which Camile has created over the past five years. The dream lives on!

As Camile noted, she will continue to contribute to Scrap & Bean, I am as thrilled as you are about that.

It has been a busy week getting acquainted with many of you, and I enjoy every day of it. We have been busy opening boxes of beautiful papers, stamps, glitter ang bling which have been arriving daily, and envisioning all of the projects that will be created. In the midst of all this excitement, we have actually made time to create some scrapbook layouts, mini books, and cards to display and inspire you. come on in and share the fun we are having! You are sure to be inspired.

Time to Say Goodbye




It seems so much has happened over the last couple weeks that I haven't had time to post. Yes, I believe that is my excuse lately...but, it's true.

I wanted to take a couple of weeks off over the summer from blogging and it seems as though I just have. Well, the exciting news is CHA has just occurred and the store is brining in great new products and lines, especially stamps for all you stamping' crazies!

SOME OTHER NEWs:

I have said good-bye to the store. From the ground up, I built Scrap & Bean, five years ago and treated it with gentle kindness and care. I hope that you as my customers and friends felt that way upon entering the humble abode. My goal has always been to create a comforting, quaint atmosphere for you creative types, to come and enjoy the look and feel of product. I hope this has been achieved.

It is time for me to move on now to other opportunities that arise. I want to still see you all at the store as I will continue to work the store on some Saturday's and teach some classes. I will also now be able to really enjoy myself scrapbooking, making cards and creating at the back during crops and not only enjoy hearing the laughter that came from so many of you, but be involved in it! I am still so passionate about creating a legacy for others to enjoy, but also to create an outlet to escape to and be myself.

Kathy is the new owner of the store and I am confident she can take the store to another level, but still one that will ensure your comfort as you walk through the door, inspired to create. She has brought in so many great lines and products already and will continue to be doing so! You just have to come and check out what is happening at the store and her ideas for the future with you still continuing to be the priority! I hope you continue to support her as you supported me in making Scrap & Bean the small success it has 'bean.'

Thank you all for your stories and support through the years. I enjoyed getting to know so many of you on a personal level. Each and every one of you have affected me and created effect for me in one way or another. I truly appreciate your patronage and am truly thankful that you trusted me enough to let me into your lives.

See you soon at the Scrap & Bean...

p.s.: I posted a photo of our dog finally, as I know some of you have been waiting to meet her in pictures...
p.p.s.: In the next day or so, we will start to post photos of the product that Kathy has been bringing in...
