So excited to see the news about Claire! I love today's peek! Can't wait to see more of this release!

Sneak peek #3

One of my favorite images in the new Sending Love StampTV Kit is this little shopping village with that big paper crafting store right in the middle of everything. And of course that cute greeting, which I happen to agree with! LOL! (You can click on the images to make them bigger) 

This image is perfect for making gift card holders or cards for anyone on your list who loves to shop, drink coffee, knit, stamp, scrapbook ... well the list goes on! I designed this image in honor of my next big announcement!

We have a brand new home for Gina K. Designs stamps, paper and ink and a brand new studio for StampTV.com!

Introducing our new facility, Village Paper & Ink! 

(Opening June 1st, maybe sooner)

And here is a look at the real Village Paper & Ink:

Inside, there is close to 9000 square feet of space that will include a beautiful new retail store, a shipping and packaging department, a StampTV Theater, full commercial kitchen, a relaxation room, a classroom and SO much more!

Here is a photo of the upstairs street level:

All of the blue carpet is coming out and being replaced. Here is the new wood floor section:

Here is the view from one of our windows looking at the statue of Norman Rockwell:

Here is one of the many beautiful restaurants that grace this historic shopping district. This is Joey Girard's, right across the street from us:

And here is the beautiful Village Hall, (taken in the summer,) our view from another one of our windows:

A little bit about the Historic Downtown Greendale shopping district from Discover Greendale's website:

"Our Historic Downtown is a vibrant business community made up of shops, restaurants and services that are independently owned and operated.  We are proud of our history as a community of small, independent businesses.  Many times the person who greets you will be the owner, or their mother, sister, best friend or spouse.  We really are in the business of family business!"

And:

Our Historic Downtown Center is lined with over 25 unique shops, boutiques, restaurants and cafes anchored by the Greendale Visitor Center, also known as the Reiman Visitor Center. Many special events are held throughout the year.

Stop at the Greendale Visitor Center birthplace of Reiman Publications- publisher of Taste of Home and 12 other Greendale based magazines. Visit our one -of- a kind cooking store featuring Taste of Home discounted cookbooks, gadgets galore and a working test kitchen.

Greendale’s history is unique. This planned community is one of only three “Greenbelt Communities” in the United States built by the Franklin Roosevelt Administration in 1936. The goal was to provide much needed jobs and better housing for families. This wonderful Village was designed to look like an English Garden Village and still resembles New England’s Williamsburg.

Come and see our “backward houses”! When you are in town you’ll notice we have backward houses…yes, it’s true! Visit Historic Downtown Greendale and we will point them out to you!

If you visit during the summer months– more than 40,000 flowers are planted annually along the downtown streets, in hanging baskets, in sidewalk beds and storefront window boxes. The scenery’s just as pretty if you come during the Holiday season, when more than 100,000 twinkling lights frame the buildings along the main street. One visitor said, “It looks just like a Norman Rockwell Town!” You’re Going to LOVE Greendale!
