I have a thing for gnomes. I haven't had it for very long, and I think it's my mom's fault for buying me a garden gnome last year at Menards, but I totally dig them. The one garden gnome (and the giant mushroom he stands under) has now been joined by a gnome flag, a gnome sleeping in a hammock, and 3 small gnomes that guide you up the porch steps. I have a very small flower bed in front of my house, so that's a lot of gnomes for a small area.
Even more than I like my gnomes, I like torturing Christina, who I sit by at work, with gnomes. She hates them. She says she just doesn't like them, but I know that deep down, she's actually scared of them. Maybe she was attacked by one as a child, I don't know. Once in awhile they just show up on her desk. It's happened a couple times. I'm sure it will happen again, but you just never know when.
When the Autumn 2011 Idea Book came out almost a year ago, and this fantastic Gnome Garden stamp set appeared, I was so excited! I didn't get it until just a few months ago, though, which brings me to my point. Before too long, the Autumn 2012 Idea Book will be unveiled, which is very exciting! But that means that the stamp sets from last Autumn's book may be going away.
Whenever a new Idea Book comes out, all of the My Acrylix stamp sets from the previous book are still available. (Papers, embellishments, tools and accessories are only available from the current book, but the stamps carry over!) You can only count on them being available for ONE extra season, though! So when this Autumn's book comes out, unless the stamp set you've been looking at happens to still be in the book, you may be out of luck. Don't miss out on a favorite! Now is the time to go through the Autumn 2011 Idea Book and make sure you've picked up all the stamps you love. Now is the time to go through the Spring 2012 Idea Book and make sure you've picked up all the papers and accessories that you love. I hate missing out on something just because I took too long. So while we're all excited about the new products that are coming soon, don't forget to snap up the great products you've had on your wish list before it's too late! If you find any papers in that old Autumn book that you just have to have, make sure you check back for information on the "Perfect Pairs" special coming in July, and you just might be able to get them for free!
