Hi Everyone,

Lisa and I will be taking a trip to Texas next weekend for a Trade Show and buying spree for the store. You know we like to shop. While we are there, we will be placing orders for Hero Arts, Stampendous, Technique Tuesday, Memory Box, Impression Obsession and the Cat's Pajamas. Click on each company's name and you will go directly to their website. So, if you have been eyeing up one of their stamps, please have us put it in the special order book for you so that we will be sure to order it. We have the latest catalogs for you to look thru at the front counter. We will not be giving a discount on the preorders but if you prepay for your stamp order this weekend, the amount will count towards a $50 purchase ticket for our drawing.

You can make a difference. We are suppporting the Susan G Koman for the Cure Fund again this year and hope you can help out. From Friday thru Sunday, we will be selling raffle tickets for $1 each (6 tickets for $5) for a chance to win a scrapbook filled with 20 completed layouts ready for your photos. All the funds raised will be going to the Susan G Komen fund. Please bring cash or checks for the raffle tickets.






We will also be having a silent auction all weekend long. There will be a variety of mini albums and cards available to bid on. Please ask at the front counter for a number so you can bid on our fun projects for a good cause. We will call all the bid winners on Monday to come in and pick up their items. Please make out checks directly to the Susan G Komen Fund so that your donation will be tax deductible.
