Next Week !

Good morning !
Next week there will be some happenings !
FRIDAY JULY 24th ... open 10am to 5pm as usual but I will be having a Christmas Make-It Project from 10am to noon that day. Drop in any time before 11:45 to do the project. Just $3... and that includes all the supplies.
We will be using the Peel Offs, glitter, and Sharpies to make a sparkly card. This technique is so easy once you see how it is done !

Lots of sparkle !

SATURDAY JULY 25th ... 10 am to noon. Preview of some of the new Christmas product !
I will have new Christmas dies from Memory Box and stamps from Stampendous and Hero Arts.
This is just the beginning ... many items are just in the preorder stage but these companies are quick to start.
I will also have Christmas paper & accessories on sale ! All the extra Christmas stock will be spread out on the big tables so you can get started on your early Christmas projects.
Hope to see you !!

I hope to see you this week and hope to have a good turnout on Saturday. Who knows ? If there are lots of people out Saturday, there may be more Saturdays open ! ;)
And watch for another Make-It project next week, a Christmas preview on Saturday, and lots more !!

MAKE-IT PROJECT !!

Hello !
I will be open SATURDAY JULY 18th from 10am to noon. There will be a Make-It project that you can make or you can just drop in to shop - or both !
Here is what we will be making ... everything is provided for just $3 (including tax) ... great chance to try out Distress inks, ink blending tools, and stencils. Drop in any time before 11:45 to make the card.

There will be lots of colours to choose from !

If Saturday is busy ... who knows ... there may be more Saturdays !

And one more thing for the week ... I purchased a case of paper at a great price and now have it packaged for sale. It is a smooth white 80lb paper with a subtle dot pattern. I stamped on it and it worked beautifully ! It is in packages of 25 sheets for $4.99 - that's just 20 cents per sheet !! I bought all there was so when it's gone, that's it !

If you look closely at the photo, you can see the dot pattern ... very subtle. 
(Click on it to enlarge ...)

So that's it for this week. I'm waiting for a big Christmas order to arrive so watch for a Christmas in July announcement soon !
Hope to see you tomorrow (Friday) !!

Post #3 This Week !

Hello everyone on this HOT day. Yesterday I shared some sale items with you and a corrected version of this month's calendar ... not sure what I was thinking there ... anyway, today I am back with some great new things ! I have dies, stamps, inks, and more.
Here is a little sampling . To see all of the new stock, click here ....

And June's new release of Distress ink has arrived ! HICKORY SMOKE. It is going quickly so speak for yours now before it runs out. This will be a great colour for distressing, shading, colouring edges, etc. A softer alternative to black.

So that's it for today. I will be back tomorrow with (hopefully, lol ) the samples for this month's Make-It Projects as well as a few odds'n'ends. See you then !!
P.S. I had company today ... my little cat Scout needed a day away from her housemates so she came to work with me. ♥

Schedule ... hi tech !

I tried to create a nice calendar & post it on the Facebook page ... after several hours, I printed one out and took a photo. lol. I'm not the best tech person out there. Anyway, while looking at it, I realized I had made a mistake on the calendar on this page. So here is the correct, super professional, hi tech version. Sorry for any confusion.

Quick Sale Post .
