From Nicole's Desk

The Silhouette Cameo and the color gold are two of our favorite things here at Creations Galore. You can imagine our excitement when a customer came in and gave us the privilege to work with both. On Nicole's desk this week are large number fives and script welcome die cuts cut from gold cardstock with the Cameo. We created the two types of die cuts with fonts downloaded to our computer. That machine is a wonder! The die cuts will be used as welcome tags and invitations to a business' 5 year anniversary party. 

Silhouette Cameo Gold Die Cuts

Happy Father's Day

It takes a special guy to handle life at a craft store, and we couldn't be more proud, honored, or blessed to have this one. If you've hung around Creations Galore long enough, you're sure to have seen our "maintenance man" Scott. He's husband to Lori and dad to Nicole. As our favorite person, we couldn't help but share a few photos and publicly wish him a Happy Father's Day. 

Thanks for putting up with our crazy ideas, helping us with our projects, fixing burning lights, climbing up tall ladders, killing bugs, mowing the lawn, bringing us food, entertaining us, and the thousand other things you do for us and this little company. You're the best. Enjoy your day!

With Nicole, teaming up for a friendly water fight.

With our other favorite dad, Lori's son Ryan and his twin boys.

Paper Of The Week: Frozen

We have 10,000 square feet of paper crafting supplies and understand how intimidating that can be. We're not sure you'll ever be able to see it all. That's why we've started a blog series called, Paper of the Week. To bring you a new paper and a few coordinating products so you can say, "Wow; they have that?!" 

This week's paper pick is from the movie that took the world by storm, Frozen. The brand SandyLion has introduced several Frozen themed 12x12 papers, and you can now purchase them at Creations Galore. This one has a snowflake and ice background with a group shot of the characters. There's plenty of room to add your photos from Frozen themed events or your children in their favorite Frozen gear. 

Frozen Group Paper

We've paired the papers with stickers from EK Success. Use them to embellish cards or a coordinating layout. 

Elza Frozen Stickers

Olaf Frozen Stickers
