What a hectic weekend! My daughter had her dance recital on Saturday so my niece Andrea & her daughter (isn't she adorable!) watched the store for me while I was gone Saturday evening. The other picture is of my mom & Nina after the recital.
Then it was on to a full day of Mother's Day celebrations on Sunday. I told my husband he didn't have to get me anything since we are down to one income for now, but he just can't do that (we went thru this on our anniversary, too!) So I now have my very 1st flash drive. That may not sound like a big deal to most of y'all, but I'm a little computer challenged. I did get some photos loaded onto it (for my digital photo frame), but I can't figure out how to load music to play on the frame (that was the main reason we wanted the flash drive). I'll leave that up to Noe to figure out!
Last Friday I received another shipment of new releases from Creative Imaginations. My favorite is the "Old Guys Rule" collection. It is great if you know a guy that is about to retire (like my dad!) or just hitting one of those milestone birthdays! If you look closely at the top paper, you can see a guy in his recliner with a remote in one hand & a beer in the other!
This shipment also included some super cute die cut card stock (white swirls, pink flowers or brown dots). I can't wait to see what layouts y'all come up with using these papers. Could there possibly be a contest??? Let me know if you are interested!
This Saturday we will be doing our 1st ever Try It! Day. We will select a product & set it out on the crop table for you to try out. I'm still finding alot of people who do not know what Stickles are. If that is you, be sure to stop by this Saturday to check it out. And if you are already familiar with Stickles, stop by anyway. You just might find your new favorite color!
SPECIAL ORDERS I have had alot of customers ask for items that we don't carry here at the store but they can't find them elsewhere. If you find your self in this situation, just ask me if I can get it. I have a distributor that carries alot of different brands and I have actually been able to fill alot of requests. I have been ordering about once a month (sometimes more if I have enough orders!) so I should be able to get it to you fairly quickly. And the prices are regular retail prices. The only time I might not be able to order what you are looking for is with paper because the majority of paper comes in packs of 25 (unless you want the whole pack!).
If you haven't been in yet this month, be sure to ask for your Frequent Shoppers Card when you check out. Tuesday is Double Punch Day and, due to an error on my part, we will also have double punch days on Wednesday for this month only.
We have alot of cute new stuff on order, but no place to put it! So this week our clearance & Valentine's sections are 50% off. Yes I said FIFTY PERCENT off! This week only. So come in & stock up on some goodies while they are at this incredibly low price.
Have a Scrappy Week!
