This N That Scrapbooking

SCRAPPINK!

2009-08-27T17:43:00.000-07:00

Hello All!

Well, the Shop Hop is over! It was a great success for the stores and the customers! I think everyone had a wonderful time and we are all excited to do it again next year. Don't forget - you can still purchase the store pin at $8.99 to be eligible for discounts throughout the year that will only be available if you have the pin. It will be good through August 2010.

I have attached the flyer for SCRAPPINK Weekend~it's the annual crop for cancer weekend with $10 of your event fee going automatically to the Susan G. Koman Breast Cancer Awareness Fund. As many of you know, my husband has pancreatic cancer so this crop means more to me this year than ever. Although it's not the same kind, cancer has such devasting effects on a person - it is so important to try to find a cure or at least something that can relieve the effects that this disease creates.

Please sign up now or come by and donate in September. We want to be number 1 in donations this year!

New Face!

2009-08-06T15:38:00.000-07:00

We have a new Class instructor and we think you are going to love her! Please read her short bio and check out her upcoming classes!
See you soon!
p.s. The SHOP HOP starts TOMORROW!!!

My name is Jenn Seri and I’m so excited to share my passion for scrapbooking with you. I fell in love with the art of preserving memories 11 years ago and can’t imagine my life without it! I’m married to the most wonderfully supportive husband, Tim, and I have the most amazing 6 year-old, Joshua. I have been a stay at home mom for the past 6 years and prior to that I spent 7 years working for a homebuilder, the last 2 of which I spent in the Design Studio. I hold a certificate in design from the Interior Designers Institute in Newport Beach.

I hope to share with you the ideas and techniques that I have learned along the way and look forward to learning from all of you as well!

I love the idea that we can suspend time within our scrapbooks. I’m thankful that we can capture those precious moments, the ones that seem to flitter away just as quickly as they arrived and keep them forever. And I love the friendships that seem to inevitably blossom during the many hours of cropping! I can’t wait to meet you all!

Despite all the recent tragedys, the failed economy and skyrocketing employment, as Americans we seem to be able to always pull together and celebrate our freedom - I

thank God we are all able to see past our differences for even a short time to celebrate our great country...

I am proud to be an American!

I Love the USA

Missing you.

2009-06-27T08:07:00.000-07:00

I was thrown off this week because of Michael Jackson - I know it seems like he was a little off the track but I am really going to miss him. Most of my life has had his music in it - for almost 40 years ( I am really stretching it with my age right here). It's hard to believe this icon is no longer with us. I am wondering if someone will make a paper collection??? I would love to scrapbook items about him. Rest in peace Michael. Farrah Fawcett is another ...a great inspiration to many people - my life seems so much emptier already. I want to thank them for making my road a little more enjoyable.

We Added to our walls...

This blogging thing is supposed to be fun I know but it is a LOT of work! I am finally getting back into a few things after being out of the store for so long ( almost a year now ) and I forgot how much work needs to be done all the time.

I hope this will help keep everyone (and me) up to date on the latest news, products and projects the craft industry has to offer. Scrapbooking is my LOVE and I so miss it - at least I will get to talk about it.
