Fibers are the newest craze, the hottest phase and a fantastic way to spice up your scrapbook pages and greeting cards. Now that we’re all finding out fantastic ways to use them on our pages, the question on everyone’s mind is, “Where can I get my hands on them?” TheCardLadies.com is a great place to buy a large assortment of beautiful fibers, many of which are imported and not available in average craft stores or yarn stores. Whether you’re looking for fuzzy, sparkly, elegant, fun, soft, prickly, lumpy, smooth, vibrant, pastel, multi-colored, monochromatic, thick, Fibers come in two different types of packages, assortment packages and individual bags. Assortment packages are a variety of fibers grouped together to create a theme. For example, beautiful burgundy, evergreen, white and gold fibers are grouped together to create the “Christmas Regals” assortment package. These coordinating fiber combinations have wonderfully vivid colors and textures to create a visually pleasing and stimulating look for your pages. The matching and choosing is done for you! You can create gorgeous pages with these fibers, without having to pick and choose, match and buy many different packages. Assortment packages are $5.00 each and contain about 36 feet of fibers! If you’re not working on a themed layout, and just love a certain color or type of fiber, individual bags are the way to go. Individual bags are $3.00 and contain between 6 and 15 feet of fiber in each bag, depending on the type and thickness of each strand. Many of the individual bags also include designer created coordinating fibers to create beautiful color combinations and fabulous page accents. Let the fiber artists work for you and show you color combinations you may not have thought of. There are tons to choose from, and you’re sure to find yourself drooling over all of the beautiful options. Allow the unusual fibers to inspire you and see how they remind you of everyday things…kite tails, the beach, the fall, the fuzzy mittens your grandma made…the possibilities are endless.  All of the fibers are packaged nicely in small zip-lock bags with a tag telling you the fiber number. This is great for re-ordering your favorite fibers and the zip-lock bags are a perfect way to store your fibers with your other scrapbooking supplies. The more organizing that is done for you, the more scrapping time you get! They also keep the fibers nice and clean and safe from little 'jelly' hands and curious pets. Shipping charges are $1.00 for 1-2 items and $1.50 for 3 or more items, with a bonus of FREE shipping for orders with a final total (after any discounts) over $20.00. Items are shipped as soon as possible and typically the next day, depending on volume. Once the item is shipped, it typically takes 3-5 days to be delivered to your door, although the USPS allows for 7-10 days. If you need your fibers immediately, a priority shipping upgrade is a speedy option for an additional $3.50. International shipping is also available, at a slightly higher cost. For those concerned about buying online, TheCardLadies.com accepts MasterCard, Visa, Discover, and American Express through Verisign's SECURE server pages. They also happily accept checks, money orders and Paypal – plenty of options to choose which payment method you are most comfortable with. TheCardLadies.com offers monthly specials highlighting certain fibers and assortment packages, and are a dream to work with. Tamra Davis, the owner of TheCardLadies.com is quite pleasant and very passionate about her service. “When I think that folks are putting fibers or other embellishments on pages with their most precious memories or adding a special touch to a mother's day card or a fun card to brighten the day of a friend... well, it just feels good to think I am part of that in some small way. And that's what scrapping and stamping is all about, making people feel good whether they are creating or sharing.” –Tamra Davis I have been very pleased with the selection and service at TheCardLadies.com, and have truly enjoyed using their fibers in my pages.
