Christmas Baker's Dozen

That's right the Christmas Baker's Dozen card class is here. All the girls at Scrap-n-Stamp have been working hard coming up with fabulously creative Christmas themed cards. This is one class you will not want to miss. You will make 13 different cards and for just $40. That is $3.00 a card, what a great deal for hand made cards. Hurry we only have a certain number of kits, and we have already had people sign up. Did I mention you can take the class any time during store hours(must start two hours prior to closing to allow enough time), that way you can come when it's convenient for you.

Black Friday and Saturday!!!

Now that you have stuffed yourself with Turkey, come to our sale. It's a good time to get all your supplies for your Christmas cards or gifts for the special someone. If your like me you have to get your own stocking stuffers, a few ideas: Stickles, ink pads, and glue are a few great ideas. 25% off your entire purchase this Friday and Saturday from 10am-6pm (excludes classes and gift card purchases). Hope to see you at the store.

Happy Thanksgiving...digital scrapbooking in minutes :-)

So I thought I try this digital scrapbooking since my sister in law is in town and all she does is digital. I'm all for technology but always so hesitant with digital which meant more time in front of the computer. But seriously, took my 30 minutes and I came up with the awesome creations, so very simple! The best part is I can send it "video" to my family members or I could take it to Scrap -n- Stamp and print all the pages out! Fantastic! Need more info...come by SnS and we'll hep you out!

We hope you have a fantastic Thanksgiving and may you have plenty of memories to carry on for generations!

Elk Grove Turkey Trot

This really doesn't have anything to do with Scrapbooking or Card Making but it is something my husband and I decided to do this Thanksgiving. The Elk Grove Turkey Trot is a 5K / 10K race for participants of all ages and fitness categories. Turnout at the first annual event, held in 2009, was amazing and raised $6700 to support Courage to be You. Please visit the C2BU website to learn more about the ways the money raised through participating in the race went towards the Courage House. We look forward to seeing you on Thanksgiving morning!

If you are interested there is still time to register for the race: Elk Grove Turkey Trot

I guess you could scrapbook some great pictures from the race. I will post mine after the race :-)

It's time to scrap those Halloween memories...

Bo Bunny always comes up with the most FUN papers and embellishments. Check out our ONE eye monster 6x6 corrugated album. This was pretty fun class! It's not too late to get that paper while we still have it...

To celebrate the end of World War 1 - hostilities ended on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month.

US President Woodrow Wilson first proclaimed an "Armistace Day" for November 11, 1918. In proclaiming the holiday he said...

"To us in America, the reflections of Armistace Day will be filled with lots of pride in the heroism of those who died in the country's service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and for the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of nations."

In 1954, Armistace Day was changed to Veterans Day to pay honor to those that fell in World War 2. And those words that were spoken almost a hundred years ago, apply even to this day.

Wishing one of our very own Scrap-N-Stamp gals, Sommer (Army helicopter pilot), a very happy Veterans Day. We appreciate that you are here with us "scrappin" away and thank you for the service that you provided to make us safer. The girls at Scrap-N-Stamp thank those that served and those that are currently serving our country. We would also like to thank all of the people that support the armed forces of the Unites States. Especially to the spouses and significant others who deal with long deployments, late nights at the office and other hardships that a military life may bring. It takes a special person to truly understand and deal with this lifestyle. In honor of Veterans Day, we will be offering everyone our military discount of 20% of every purchase on Friday November 12 through Saturday November 13 (excludes classes and giftcards).

Thank You Veterans

Happy Veterans Day to all my fellow Veterans!! Thank you for your service and Thank you to those who continue to serve. Here are a few interesting facts about veterans.

9 million: The number of veterans 65 and older in 2009. At the other end of the age spectrum, 1.7 million were younger than 35.
21.9 million: The number of military veterans in the United States in 2009.

1.5 million: The number of female veterans in 2009.

Tool Time

Here is another one of my creations for one of my husbands employee's. He is really into tools and gadgets. So I decided to make him a toolbox card. I used my pazzle and created all the hardware on the toolbox and the lettering. I think it turned out pretty good. Brads and pop-up foam also added dimension.

Just in from 3 Bugs

We just received the Tool Time and the Snow Much Fun Collections. OK, we didn't just get these I'm a little behind on blogging. They are both great papers and you could use them for all kinds of wonderful creations. Come by and check them out.
