JustRite Stamps In Store Now

I don't know about you, but I am ALWAYS needing Birthday cards and mostly it's for all the parties my kids are invited too!!  For fun kid's cards, JustRite came out with a square stamp set called Let's Celebrate which has four centres and four borders that can be mixed and matched!  The other fantastic thing about the JustRite stamps is that they PERFECTLY match the Spellbinders Nestabilities and this set is a perfect match for the Large Square Nestabilities!  This card has also been made using the papers from Kaisercraft's Jungle Bug 6 x 6 Paper Pad which are also available in store now.  These paper pads are fantastic as they have all the papers from the collection in smaller format which is perfect for cards as well as for strips for scrapbooking projects!  The seamless colouring can be achieved by using the Copic Markers now available in store and to learn more about them, we are running introductory classes!  We can order in any colour you are looking for if you can't find it in store and with 334 colours to choose from we're sure you can find the right colour for your project!!  For more information on our classes, please check our ABSA Class Page or to book a space you can Register Online!

We hope to see you soon!
