Upcoming Events

Sorry, I haven't posted in the last couple of weeks. It's been ABSOLUTELY crazy! Yesterday, we completely moved out of the store on Alexander. Man, moving 10 million small scrapbook embellishments isn't easy!! lol. And when you put alot of paper together, it gets mighty heavy!!! UGHHH.... but it's done! Now, we have started the task of unpacking everything. It's going really well, and although we will not be open this weekend, we feel that we should be up and running by next weekend. Classes will probably resume the week after and we start the kit club back up shortly thereafter. I have appreciated all the emails, calls and help we have recieved. We are so thankful for everyone's support. Makes you feel really good! I will try to update by next Thursday. (Hopefully, having a crop next Saturday.) By the way, the phone should be transferred next week, so if you happen to need something please email me at mpcld30@aol.com The phone number will remain the same. Thanks all. Have a blessed week!
