June is here

Where has this year gone? We're already in June and that means the year is half over. As the saying goes the older you get the faster the years go by. It's all good though because that means we've been busy filling our shelves with new products, creating scrapbook layouts and mini albums and planning special monthly events all for you. Included in those special events is our Monthly Scapbook Callenge. May's challenge was titled "April Showers bring May Flowers" and once again we had a sell out month. Many of the challengers were quite busy with the Memorial Day holiday and the end of school so we only had 5 entries returned for judging. What great odds for a chance at a $50.00 gift card! We selected Eva C. as our challenge winner. Her layout was truly stunning and many customers were inspired by her design and execution. Here are pictures of all the entries:

Speaking of time passing, we realized that we never posted pictures of our National Scrapbooking Day crop. The post was created but never got posted. The ladies that joined us for the day had a great time and went home with armfuls of prizes and giveaways. All the croppers were asking when our next big crop would be, which by the way, will be our Scrappink Charity Crop at the end of September. Look for more info about it coming this August.

As for what's happening this month, did you hear? We're having a storewide sale tomorrow. Come in to get your hands on some awesome deals - 40% off the store (with a few exceptions), a clearance aisle with embellishments marked down 90%, clearance papers at 10 cents a sheet and all product from the BE collection 75% off. What a great way to stock up on papers and embellishments for upcoming crafts to make as holiday gifts! A sale is always exciting but don't forget to check out our class calendar too - we've got some wonderful classes and a Kids Kamp planned this month. Samples are displayed in the store and on our Calendar link in the sidebar.

Well, we better get back to preparing for the sale. Have a great day and we'll see you tomorrow!
