Happy New Year!!! Most people start out the new year with a day off and watching a bowl game or two. You relax and enjoy the last of a 3 day weekend. For us at A Place in Time it's the day we do "Inventory". Priscilla and I want to thank all of the volunteers who helped us with this task. They did a fantastic job. Without their help we would still be counting product. Mae, Char, Pam, Debbie, Mollie, Jenny, Wayna, and Art - I can't thank you enough for giving up a day of rest to help us out. The photos posted below show the "crew" taking a lunch break. Pam is shown counting ribbon before joining the others.
We've been asked about classes and they are being planned as I am writing the Blog. I don't have samples yet, but Priscilla will be continuing her 2nd Sunday Make and Take It on January 8th. It will be from 2pm to 5pm and it is "Free" for anyone who wants to participate. We do ask, if you can, please make a donation to our basket for the Food Bank. No tools are required, just bring a smile and enjoy the fun. I think Priscilla mentioned doing something relating to Valentine's Day.
Fran Kawakami has been back in the store selecting papers and embellishments for her "A Year in Cards" class on January 25th. The class is from 7pm - 9pm and the fee is $20.00. The only tools that you will need to bring will be a "Basic Tool Kit". Fran has decided to try Wednesday nights this year - perhaps it will provide a better opportunity for more people to participate. Fran always does a great job and for those of you that haven't taken one of her classes - you will learn something new and have a lot of fun in the process. I'll post the samples as soon as Fran brings them in to the store. Oh! The subject of the first class will be "LOVE".
The first arrival of new product for this new year arrived on Tuesday. People who came into the store and saw it spread out on the table wanted it "Now". I really had to scramble to enter the bar codes into the computer. When Priscilla started opening the box, I couldn't believe what I was seeing. We have ordered from Memory Box before. Many of you have added their two sided papers to your collection. Now we have their die-cuts on our shelves. You will not believe your eyes when you see the designs that are available. A cornucopia of hearts, butterflies, trees, borders, scrolls, etc. There are 22 designs to choose from. Good luck in trying to decide which ones you will want. I think this product line will be as popular as the Liquid Pearls and Embossing Folders. Memory Box has designed their die-cuts to be used on The Big Shot and most other die cutting machines. I should mention that you won't believe the pricing either. I've included a couple of photos for you to review. In the next few days I'll be making more samples. It's really easy and the results are fantastic. Come into the store and judge for yourself.
That's all for now. It's going to be an exciting 2012.......I'll see you tomorrow......
