Here are a few photos of a really cute Scrapbook Store in Gilbert, AZ. It is called "Devine Memories".

This store is about 1,400 sq feet and it felt very inviting & friendly...I was impressed with how well the store was merchandised-the store felt full and was well stocked in a small amount of space. I really liked the wood floors and tan/black color decor--it created a pleasant ambiance. Plus there were tons of samples all around the store. This store opened 3 years ago and it was my 1st visit. Cute store!

Here are photos of Domestic Bliss store in downtown Mesa, AZ. A few days ago I posted photos of their studio. Their store is so beautiful, I could just live there! ha ha! Domestic Bliss has lovely home decor and fine gifts...no Paper Crafting. I still thought it was quite lovely to snap photos to share.

Enjoy!

Mystic Paper...Oh, I just LOVE the name of this store! And it is a totally COOL vintage"Paper Arts" store at best! The two owners Kim & Jennifer are super nice and their blog makes me laugh--they always post photos of what their UPS Guy, Jeff delivered for the day, plus photos of UPS Jeff too.

Mystic Paper has a great selection of Vintage Paper Crafting Scrapbook supplies. Mystic Paper also has an outstanding selection of Mixed Media supplies too.

If you are ever in the Mesa, AZ area--be sure to visit "Mystic Paper" in downtown Mesa...it is a small store that is BIG on inspiration with awesome products! I LOVE Mystic Paper!

*BLiSSFuL LiViNG* STuDiOs...WOW!

I had heard about this very beautiful Creative Studio (called "Blissful Living Studios") where classes are offered at a very beautiful store called Domestic Bliss (stay tuned for store photos tomorrow!) located in Mesa, AZ...

I took a Road Trip to the other side of town with a friend to see for myself. All I can say is "WOW!"

If I lived closer, I would certainly be in this Studio a lot! Look at how lovely the room is decorated with delicious colors and decor! The wood floors and brick walls really added to the ambience of this wonderful room--of course, wood floors and brick walls are extremely rare in the Phoenix area, so this was a real treat!

Today, I went with a friend to visit Scrapbooks, Etc Store in Mesa, AZ--it is owned by the folks that own Bazzill too. Tons of paper, tons of ribbon, tons of everything! This store is 10,000 feet! WOW!

Ladies visit from all over the state and some neighboring states to visit this store. Of course, they carry every color, texture, and style of Bazzill card stock that is available. Scrapbooks Etc is a fun place to visit. Closed on Sundays.

CHRiSTMaS ATC SWaP

Here is the ATC I created for the Stampin' D'Amour monthly swap, made with lots of Stickles, bling, and a mini candy cane embellishment. I used my favorite Daisy D's Holiday paper.

Here is another store that I think you'll enjoy-"Hollywood Regency". I found out about this wonderful gem of a store from my friend, Tricia of Vintage Bliss.

Hollywood Regency is like stepping into a closet full of wonderful Vintage clothing...if only I had somewhere special to wear these Vintage duds. The owner Heidi was a gracious hostess and so friendly! If you are in the Central Phoenix area, be sure to visit Hollywood Regency on 7th Ave & Montecito.

Here are photos from another antique store that I love to visit--just a few doors down from Melrose Vintage. It is called Rust & Roses. So many delightful goodies I couldn't resist!

Oh my! I just realized that I haven't posted anything on my Blog for 2 months! I have some catching up to do!

Yesterday, I went to visit one of my favorite stores in Central Phoenix called "Melrose Vintage". It is like stepping into the pages of a Country Living magazine. They carry Rachel Ashwell's Shabby Chic line. There is also a HUGE room full of Paper Crafting products--I couldn't resist and bought some wonderful Vintage-themed paper!

I have posted photos of "Melrose Vintage" previously, but you can't get enough of how lovely this store is.
