Sneak Peek: Calling All Boys and Girls!

Is your little one as busy as a bee? Whether toddlers or teens, kids seem to have more energy than they know what to do with! Even those grown up kids don't seem to be slowing down.

The new Idea Book is buzzing with beautiful papers, stickers and stamps to help you keep up with those busiest members of the family.

Buzz and Bumble

This fabulous line has beautiful bee and garden themed images in earthy tones and the coordinating stamps carry on the theme. Two Quick Cards stamps, Dragonfly and Bumble Bee  (A-size) are wonderful for passing on your best wishes. The Honeycomb stamp set (C-size) offers hexagons in two different sizes and many patterns. This trendy shape will add modern flair to your pages and cards.

The Buzz and Bumble Assortment adds old world charm to your cards and layouts with self-adhesive wax seals. You'll also love the natural beauty of the printed wooden bee and flower shapes for a look that will cause quite a buzz!

The Workshops on the Go Buzz and Bumble Scrapbooking Kit comes with the papers, Buzz and Bumble Assortment, Sparkles Brown and Tan Assortment and a lovely My Acrylix Buzz and Bumble Workshop Stamp Set (C-size) that is only available in the kit.

Later Sk8r

This line is ALL BOY! Distressed plaids, splattered metals and grungy graphics give this paper line a rough and tough feel. The distressed elements continue in the Later Sk8r My Stickease Assortment, which has gears, tread marks and splatters, and the coordinating stamps, Fast and Furious (D-size) and In Gear (B-size).

The trendy rubber images in the Later Sk8r Assortment will grip your attention for a gnarly project any tween or teen will love. My favourite is the skull!

The Workshops on the Go Later Sk8r Scrapbooking Kit offers the papers and Assortment as well as one of CTMH's new products, Green and Blue Epoxy Bubbles. These round, adhesive-backed Bubbles come in three sizes and offer a little bit of glassy shine without the all-out bling of Sparkles. The exclusive My Acrylix Later Sk8r Workshop Stamp set includes sentiments, skateboard images and distressed backgrounds. A must-have stamp set for teenage boys!

The contrast of bright and soft give the Claire line lots of energy! Bright colours Hollyhock and Sunset compliment the softness of Blush and stand out against the dark Outdoor Denim. Whether you have a girly-girl or a Tomboy, Claire has the shades and patterns to capture her quirky personality.

You'll love the versatility of the Claire Assortment flowers. Choose from clear acrylic, pink acrylic or Outdoor Denim fabric flowers for the perfect blooming touch on all your projects.

The Girls Rock stamp set (C-size) brings Flower Power into the 21st century with cool graphics and sentiments.The Paper Doll stamp set (D-size) is lovely for capturing the innocence of days gone by or just for crafting your own paper dolls for an afternoon of playing!

This 12" x 6" sheet of adhesive-backed uppercase letters, numbers, symbols and punctuation is one of two new alphabet sticker sheets available in the Spring/Summer 2013 Idea Book. The My Acrylix Claire Worskhoop Stamp Set (C-size) compliments the Girl's Rock stamp set and has the same style of whimsical images.
