Our first "Beyond the Page" class for 2011!


We've been listening to your input, and the general consensus is that project classes would be the way to go--so we are trying again with classes, beginning in January! The project pictured above is a Kaiser photo display frame, made from MDF and painted black. The project can be hung on a wall or placed in a stand, and would make a terrific Valentine's Day gift for someone special--or a treat for yourself to display pics of your loved ones! Here is the class info:
Date and Time: Saturday, January 22, 2011, from 1 until 4
Cost: $28.00
The frame, paint, and paper will be provided in the class kit. You will need to bring your trimmer, scissors, and 6 or 7 black and white photos, including some that can be trimmed to 3" x 4". We will also need a liquid adhesive such as ZipDry or Beacon 3-in-1, which will be available for purchase the day of the class if you do not already have some. Class attendees will receive 20% off any regular-priced purchases they make that day. Payment is due at the time of registration, and space is limited. 205-640-3999
**************
After the class, we will be having our annual Mixer, where you'll get to know your fellow scrapbookers! The Mixer will begin at 5:00 and will continue through 7:30. Drinks, plates, desserts, and cups will be provided; each participant should bring a potluck dish to share with the group, along with an album or project that you would like to show off. (Don't worry--we'll keep the food away from your work!). Part of the goal of our store is to build relationships between crafters and foster a community of friends who can have fun and fellowship together, and this mixer is the perfect opportunity for you to become a part of that! The mixer is FREE, but we do need a head count, so please let us know if you are attending by posting here or by sending an e-mail to scrapbookprincess@windstream.net.
**************
Our Better-than-Black-Friday sale continues through 6 p.m. today! We will be closed tomorrow and Saturday for the holiday. We will return on Tuesday, January 4th, at 10 a.m.

**************************************
There are only FOURTEEN spots left at our "Un-Birthday" Party Fundraiser Crop, benefiting the American Cancer Society, in February!
The ACS's slogan is "Official Sponsor of Birthdays", so we decided to celebrate all of our attendees' birthdays at once with an "un-birthday" party, a la Alice in Wonderland and the Mad Hatter! The fee of $89 includes a $25 donation to The American Cancer Society, as well as all-day crop time, an on-site store, special coupons and discounts, a demo/make-n-take, two meals and snacks, a mini-album kit, a t-shirt, special treats, prize drawings from local businesses, lots of fun and fellowship--and an opportunity to win a $50 gift certificate to our store!
The crop will be on Saturday, February 26, 2011, from 10 a.m. until 11 p.m. at Moody City Hall. Payment is due at the time of registration. Payment by December 23rd earns a $10 merchandise voucher, good for a year from the date you register. We are able to take credit card payment by phone. 205-640-3999
