Hi Everyone!

I am back from frigid Minnesota, thawing out in the "warm" Seattle weather. When we hit 27 degrees below zero, I knew I had to get back here......and quick! While you are all bundled up in warm winter clothes, I didn't even bring a coat. Not that that was so smart, just didn't think I would need it. So far, so good.

So much has happened here since I left in December. First of all, we have a new employee, Kim. She is so much fun! She is teaching several of our classes. She has an extensive scrapbooking background and is highly creative. Make sure you get in to meet her.
There are tons of items in the clearance area. We are making room for all the new things Marcia and Shawna will be bringing back from CHA. They are in Anaheim, CA right now, watching presentations from various scrapbook companies and taking several classes for the latest ideas and techniques. They are sure to come back loaded with lots of new things. In the meantime, Vickie, Kim and I are holding down the fort so our bosses can "play".

Our "It's Your Life" (aka 365 Days) class has filled up fast. Kim will be starting another one in February. Make sure to sign up for this awesome class. I can't think of a better way to document a year of your life. Check out our website for details.

Remember our Tin Photo Star class that got cancelled due to the weather? Well, we are happy to announce we have it on the schedule for Saturday, Feb 07 at 1:00p. Make sure to sign up soon as we only have a few slots left.

Cricut Club members, don't forget that we are meeting Sunday, Feb 08 at 1:00. I will have a project you can make on the Cricut. Make sure you mark it on your calendar. I want to see all of you!!! I have missed you!

Another favorite class is the Beginner's. This is a good class for those of you who want to learn the basics of scrapbooking. Its a wonderful way to get started. You will leave here with a completed 2pg layout. Can't beat that!! We will also be offering a Beyond the Basics class in February. Check our website for updates on all of our classes.

I am so glad to be back at the store seeing everyone. I will only be here until the 20th of February so come in and see me!
