I just received my pre-order of the NEW Blendabilities! Aren’t they pretty?  They will be available sometime in June hopefully with our new catalog.  Sets of 3, $11.95 a pack. (US)

There must be some chatter out there about these because over the weekend, I had 5 emails asking me what they are and when they are coming so I made a quick video:

(if viewing from your email, you may need to come to blog to see video)

They don’t take the place of our current markers, which are water based. These are alcohol based like Copics and will offer another coloring medium for SU lovers that coordinates with all of our colors easily.

Skin Tones, Set of 6 will be 22.95 when they are available.

This is a great example of how the Blendabilities work better then regular markers direct to paper.  On the left is using the new alcohol markers. On the right, regular markers.

*by the way, I talked about the color remover.  It really should be called a Color Mover – it doesn’t erase as much as ‘scoot’ it back into your coloring area.  Wanted to clarify that as some people thought I meant it was an eraser. It did erase other spots for me if I went back and forth with it but not red!

I got a little crazy with the velcro dots but it does keep them all together until I find a better storage solution!

Be sure to use only Memento Tuxedo Black Ink with the Blendabilities, not StazOn which bleeds. The new Memento pad and refill will be available to customers June 2nd.

Goofing around on other papers with the new markers….SU suggests Whisper White.

Memento took 15 minutes to dry on vellum but it did dry eventually!

Another example of how vivid the new markers are!  The left and middle were done with ink/blender pen and aquapainter/ink pad.  The right is the Cherry Cobbler set of 3 Blendabilities.

Now for something you can buy this week!

Good from 5/6-5/12 Only

My thoughts on the deals this week….

I love the stitched ribbon, sad that it is going. Great deal on that ribbon since you get 10 yards! Perfect for bdays and holidays.   The hearts a flutter stamp set is great but you will want the framelits to go with it – #130159 $24.95

So the deals this week may cost you a little more since you need things to go with them 🙂

You can order any of these and more HERE

The ornament framelits are great but IMO you will need the stamp set also.   $25.95 Clear Mount #128051

That’s all for me today!  Go Stamp Something!
