Tips, Tricks, Techniques & Trends DVD
Our 3 1/2-hour long scrapbooking and cardmaking DVD is our number-one best selling item. Retailers are selling it to time-pressed customers who can’t fit a store class into their schedules, playing it in the store and using it to train employees. Customers love having 19 top-notch mini classes at their disposal—they can pause, rewind and revisit the techniques whenever they want! Tips, Tricks, Techniques & Trends retails for just $19.99.
sarabinders™
This new line was an instant hit at CHA Summer! Retailers love having a unique new product line to offer scrapbookers and paper crafters and the sarabinders™ line is coordinated, compact and easy to merchandise. (A sarabinder™ project also makes a great class.) Look for magazine coverage on sarabinders™ in publications like Creating Keepsakes.
Almost Done™ Page Kits
Jan, a Tennessee retailer, tells us: “I ordered 5 different Almost Done™ Page Kits and sold out the first week! Good thing I got my reorder yesterday!” Each of the 19 Almost Done™ Page Kits features a popular scrapbooking theme and contains patterned papers and an average of 20 coordinating 3-D embellishments. At a $7.99 retail, they’re the best page kit value on the market.
Paper Pizazz® 8”x8” Albums
Ask any scrapbooker and she’ll tell you—one of the biggest trends in scrapbooking is making mini albums. Why? It’s a manageable project, requires less time than a 12”x12” book and lets her focus on a specific topic. That must be why our 8”x8” line of Paper Packs, Cardstock Packs and Albums are one of our top-selling product ranges. Available in themes like Disney, Baby, Birthday, Christmas and Vacation—and you can bet we’ll have more to come!
The Busy Scrapper’s Solution
She’s rushed. She’s tired. She loves to scrapbook but wants a shortcut. She’s the Busy Scrapper. Our Busy Scrapper’s Solution line is such a hit that it’s now become a complete brand. The latest additions to the brand are Girls: Baby & Toddler, Boys: Baby & Toddler and Disney Papers.
Scrapbook Recipes for Journaling
Our latest scrapbooking idea book heads up our best-selling instruction books. We know the scrapper wants more than just pretty layouts in a scrapbooking idea book—she wants practical page ideas with useful tips and techniques, pages that instruct and inspire without overwhelming. Scrapbook Recipes for Journaling packs 51 recipes and 151 sample album layouts into 104 book pages retailing for just $17.99. In addition, we scattered over 60 design tips throughout the book, plus 31 ways to “stir up more ideas” to offer additional versions of a particular recipe.
Beading Books
Step into any craft store and you'll see: Beading is a booming business! But look closer and you'll also see customers are bewildered by the sheer number of choices, from beads to findings, crimps to clasps. What do they need to buy? And how can they actually put it all together? Two questions that have made our beading books the best sellers from our craft book category. Two titles to look for: 30-Minute Beading and Beading 101.
