NEW SCRAP CLUB

We are taking names for the next Scrap Club. It will start in March and run for 4 – 6 months, depending on how many people sign up.  We need a minimum of 4 people to run the club, but will accept up to 6 people. 

In Scrap Club we will meet once a month for the number of months there are people in the club. For example, if 4 people sign up, we will meet once a month for 4 consecutive months. Each person in the group will be assigned a month to receive a gift certificate with the value based on each person paying their monthly fee (4 people = $100).  Each person commits to paying $25 per month whether or not they can attend each crop.

When we meet each month, we will have a 3 hour crop time, in which you can work on any scrapbooking projects you wish.  At each crop, there will be a bonus for all attendees, such as a make and take project for you to complete, a free product, layout kit, etc.

NEW YEAR, NEW ARRIVALS, NEW IDEAS!

First, I would like to thank everyone again for all of their support in the transition to our new location. We are really happy with it, now that we are all moved in.  With the move have come some changes - we will no longer be selling a Discount Membership, instead we will be providing you with a Points Card that you can redeem for free product when it is full. You can still collect points on Sale Items!  See store for details.

With the Christmas holiday hoopla behind us, it is time to look to the New Year and all the memories that we will create this year! Have you been keeping up with your New Years Resolutions? For 2011, I have decided to scrap at least 1 page per week! That means by the end of 2011 I should have 52 completed pages! So far I have finished one for my Disney album, and am now working on my next one...hopefully this will help me to finish that Disney Album before we go again! Why don't you join me in this adventure? See 'Paula's 2011 Challenge' tab for pictures on my progress! I would love to hear from you and how you are doing with your scrap projects this year. You can email me at apageintime@telus.net.

Now that we have some snow, what a great time to (finally!) capture some fun winter memories and scrapbook them on Bo Bunny's Winter Joy paper line!  Keep your eyes open for an upcoming class using this paper line!

We also have some Valentines papers and products rolling in. Give your loved ones a gift from the heart with one of Maya Roads sweet mini chip board albums.  Paint, Glimmer Mist, Ink work so well with Chipboard, and the albums are small enough you could probably complete it in a few hours!

So we look forward to a very creative 2011 and seeing you at our new location - #202-488 Mclean Street.

Happy Scrappin'
Paula

Store Transition In Progress

We thought we should give you an update on our move.  So far, we have completed inventory & packed everything (thanks to Joan & Sharlene for all their help). The husbands, Clint and Ken, have moved all of the heavy stuff and the slat board and shelving. And my good friend Stacey for painting and putting product on the walls. We hope to have all the product back on the shelves and organized this week! We are very excited to open our doors again, we still expect that January 11th will be the day. 

Although this move was not our choice, and the timing could have been better,  we are sure you will see the effort we have put in to make it feel like home again.

We wish all the best to you and your families in the New Year! We look forward to a year filled with wonderful memories, that will hopefully end up on your scrapbook pages!

Happy Scrappin'
Paula & Marilyn
