So Much New Stuff Happening!

I know we haven't updated this in quite a while but we will get better, I promise. If you really need to know the latest and greatest ASAP then sign up for our newsletter and you'll always be in the loop.

Redesigned Website: We have re-designed our website so please check it out - http://www.cutnpasteshoppe.com

Ideas: We put many of the design team layouts and projects out there and linked them to the specific products that were used in case you want to scraplift (it's ok, we all do it). We've even posted a few cards for our customers so if you want to feel like a celebrity, send us scans of you latest work to karen@cutnpasteshoppe.com. We'll be more than happy to show it off.

Sale : Order online and save on shipping and get additional discounts based on how much you spend. Who doesn't like a sale?

New products: - We are bursting at the seams so shop! shop! shop! You know you want to.

Featured Product: Have you seen the newest coolest tool around? Well actually it's 2 different tools but by the same company. The Bind It All and the Dreamkuts are simply fantastic. The Bind It All does just as it says, binds things together to make just about any kind of book you can think of. It will punch through a variety of materials so you are limited solely by your imagination. The Dreamkuts is the answer to a common problem for many scrappers. How do you get a straight cut without buying a professional and very expensive paper trimmer. The Dreamkutz will cut perfectly straight mats in record time and you'll wonder how you ever survived without this tool.

Hope to see you all soon.

Now get back to scrapping!
