 Card makers: You’ll love the lush new designs you can create with the latest addition to the line of Cardmaker’s™ Creative Packs. Filled with earthy colors like grass green, chocolate, sunflower, plum, teal, sky blue and more, the Earth’s Palette Creative Pack makes it easy to create handmade cards that are totally coordinated. Not only will you have 36 sheets of patterned paper, you’ll also have parchment paper, colored vellum, glassine envelopes and 85 cardstock tags and artwork pieces to accent your cards! All the papers measure 7 1/2"x9" so they’re perfectly sized for covering a card front. The leftover paper scraps are great for decorating inside of the card to coordinate with the front. I love this new Creative Pack for creating elegant cards of any theme for my sister, mom and girlfriends, and all the rich colors and versatile patterns are great for masculine cards, too!
Your Cardmaker’s™ Earth’s Palette Creative Pack is available for only $9.99 at www.paperwishes.com

Patterned Chipboard Letters
 Want a fresh way to create page titles and add fun journaling accents and monograms to your paper crafts? Try these new patterned chipboard letters from We R Memory Keepers! Each box includes 100 letters that are each about 1 1/4" tall, so they’re a great size for titles, replacing the first letter of a journaling block or adding monograms to the covers of your sarabinders™. At 1/16" thick, these letters add a dimensional accent to your projects without getting too bulky. My favorite part about these colorful alphabets? They’re solid colored on one side and patterned on the other! Use all solid or all patterned letters together, or flip over some of the letters to mix and match the different colors and patterns. These letters can be added to your projects as is with Glue Dots™ or even foam tape for extra dimension, and I like to take advantage of the chipboard material by sanding it, inking it or stamping on it for a distressed effect. These great chipboard letters are available in 4 different sets, each with different colors and patterns. Take a look!
All 4 sets of chipboard letters are now available for $9.99 each at www.paperwishes.com.

 For travel and heritage projects with a vintage or shabby chic style, I love the look I get from this cool new set of wax and seals. If you’ve never used sealing wax before, it’s really simple: Just light the wick on the stick of solid wax until the wax starts to melt, then blow out the flame. Tilt the wax stick over your craft and let a couple drops fall into place on your project, creating a small puddle. Then, while the wax is still liquefied, just press one of the metal stamps into the melted wax and lift up. The hardened wax will be imprinted with the design from the metal stamp!
And now you have everything you need to start adding cool sealing wax accents to your projects with this all-inclusive travel set. You'll have four sticks of black sealing wax plus three different stamp designs and a metal storage tin–and you can always pick up different colors of wax at your local stationary store. Use these creative seals to seal envelopes shut or add them as a decorative, slightly dimensional accent directly on your paper crafts.
