New shipment just arrived and gearing up for CHA

Well, we just got a very large order in of 7 Gypsies gaffer tape, glue dots, more paper (as if we really needed it!), horse stuff, ooohhh and flocking from Doodlebug. We'll also get the flocked paper, we just couldn't fit it all on one order.

Let's see, new albums came in, our make and takes came in for next week's Kidz Day event in Green, and we got lots of new stickers!

You really need to see what came in, it is really exciting when we get a shipment, especially when we've been out of some things for sooo long. Please come see us soon!

We leave Wednesday afternoon for CHA in Chicago. If you need anything or would like us to look for something, please let us know by Tuesday so we can shop for you! See you soon!

Things are going well, thanks for asking!

Okay, you probably didn't ask, but many people do. Finally, things are starting to pick up and show an upside for 2008. I was beginning to wonder if the upswing would ever happen. We had a really good day on Saturday and really much of last week. This week seems to also be going alright although sales are a bit slower than last week.

On to recent news...
I attended, and spoke, at Louisville's city council meeting on Monday. I was nervous as heck but it went well. Here's the jist of what I'm trying to accomplish. I want to create a non-profit company to raise money for renovating and restoring downtown Louisville. I also want to create an historic district for the original part of downtown. This is not a simple task so it will take some doing, a lot of work, and some good support. So, I'll keep you updated as the status of the project and how things are moving along.

Until next time,

Christina

New arrivals from Basic Grey, Creative Imaginations... plus Secret Sale! Shhhhhh...

Okay, first and foremost, Basic Grey ROCKS! I just got new papers in from them and they are awesome! I got a few papers from the Boxer line, some from Sultry and Sugared, and some from Archaic. I got 6x6 paper pads, as these have been hugely popular for us and tend to sell quickly. I got chipboard stickers to coordinate with the papers. You just have to see how stinkin' cute this stuff is! The catalog really didn't do these lines justice.

Creative Imaginations finally sent the new swimming paper and stickers! FINALLY! Plus I got FFA and farming stickers, perfect for fair season, and boy and girl themed birthday paper and stickers. They've got cupcakes on them! They are adorable!

As you can tell, I'm really excited with these new arrivals but if I don't get some people in here, I can't keep ordering new stuff! So tell your friends we are having our baby sale all of April plus we're having a "Secret Sale" on Saturday. The sale item is the new Crop-a-dile Big Bite and it's on sale for $29.99 Saturday only! If you've considered getting this new tool, this is the absolute lowest price it will EVER be offered. Again, it's only on Saturday from 9-6 at Memory Manor in Louisville.

See you soon!

April is Baby Month!

The April schedule is finally uploaded. Woohoo!

April is Baby Month so everything baby is on sale and we have baby make and takes, classes, and projects. Now is a great time to get some ideas for that little one's scrapbook... even if they're not so little anymore!

Other classes include a design layout class to give you some ideas for page layouts you can reuse over and over again. We'll also re-run the photography classes and offer a couple of album classes.

Finally, we've got 2 acrylic album classes. These are the latest, hottest trend in scrapbooking. If you haven't played with acrylic, you're missing a ton of fun and some really unique layout ideas.

Stop in or check out the website for the April offerings. Ciao!

March Snowstorm Hits HARD!!

We are sitting here, freezing! The temperature feels like it dropped 20 degrees! It's snowing and snowing and has been all day. You can't see the road, there's got to be 6" out there and it's still snowing and blowing. We haven't seen a soul in here today so the puter's my new best friend. Oh and one of our lights popped and smells like stinky feet! EEEEWWWW!!!!! Well, tomorrow's another day!

Please come visit me!

A little note... Crop-a-dile Big Bites are HERE!!!

Oh my gosh!! These things are way cool! We got our shipment of 12 in today and already sold 2. This new crop-a-dile is not nearly as huge as I thought it would be. It not only does 2 sizes of hole punches with a 6" reach, but it sets eyelets and the new Gromlets. We've got one open in the store to play with, please stop in!

Plus, as if that wasn't exciting enough, the Making Memories Slice tool is the talk of the town! We are taking preorders now. For $99, we will guarantee a Slice with your name on it. When they arrive in our hot little hands in July, you smart ones who preordered will pay only $49.95 for your Slice! This little tool is the next generation of electronic cutters. No more cutting your paper, this sets on top of the paper instead! It uses a GLASS cutting mat! IF you break that, a replacement 12x12 glass mat is $19.95. This little guy is super small and super portable. Remember the Cricut sitting against the wall at your crops? The Slice is rechargeable!!!! Use it with or without it's cord! I'm getting 2 for the store for sure and one's already spoken for on top of that.

I'm serious, this is going to be huge!
