First up, Priscilla and I want to thank everyone who attended Jenny Sakamoto's "Make and Take It". There was a constant flow of people into the store and Jenny's gift holder was fun to make. Even more exciting are the photos of Jenny's "samples" that she brought with her. You should be able get several ideas for your next project. The Make and Take put a "dent" in our inventory of Sister Stamps, but we still have a nice selection to choose from.

Once a month, a "kit" arrives from Memory Box. This months kit includes a beautiful soft blue paper (8 1/2 x 11) with small white dots, a pack of A2 cards (25) with envelopes, and the "Hibiscus" die that everyone wants.

After a week in the store, the current selection of Memory Box Dies are almost sold out. We are down to single selections of each design. Those that pre-ordered are the happy ones. But not to worry, Priscilla has already placed another order. It includes some of the favorites from previous orders plus several that will be "new" to the store. The pre-order sales have again been brisk and I encourage you to take a look at the photos the next time you are in the store. I guarantee you will like what you see. If you haven't used the Memory Box dies - I'll give you a quick demo. The thing that makes Memory Box so popular is that you can make a very detailed, beautiful embellishment in about 5 seconds. The pricing I know you will like also.
Priscilla's "Craft Snacks and Tidbits" sessions are becoming a "thing to do on Sundays". Last Sunday, Priscilla had everyone making a pocket book with the new "Mulberry" paper we recently acquired. It was a a lot fun and Priscilla had to "scramble" to make extra kits for everyone. I hope we will see you this coming Sunday (15th).

Craft Snacks and Tidbits happen every Sunday 1:00 - 4:00pm. It's free. See you on the July 15th, 22nd, and 29th. There is no fee, but if you like you can "put a dollar" in the jar for the Food Bank.
Fran had her mystery class last night. As usual, it was a full class. Fran did a super job blending the "Konnichiwa" paper from Basic Grey into a truly beautiful flip book.

Fran's class for August are beginning to fill up. On Wednesday Aug. 8th Fran's class will be entitled "Flip Book Too". (yes, the spelling is correct). There are seats available and I'll post the sample as soon as Fran has it put together. August 22nd will be the next in Fran's popular "A Year in Cards" series. There are a couple of seats still available, so give me a call if your interested. The cost of the classes are $20.00. Our store policy is to give anyone taking a class a 10% discount on any purchases you make the night of the class. If you have a store discount card you will receive an additional 10% off the items you buy. It's a great deal and you have the fun in making something that you will really enjoy.
That's all for now.... See you tomorrow .... See you on Sunday for Priscilla's "Craft Snacks and Tidbets"
