Please go tonight or first thing in the morning. It's hot. It's all the rage. It's what we've all been waiting for. If you haven't seen it yet...you are going to die! It is amazing. It is total eye candy. I am posting this now...without pictures...cause I want you to know that it's there.

I will be back in a short while to show you lots and lots of great pictures. Please check back soon.

Tim, Tim and more Tim...oh and a R.A.K.

I may have said this before, but did you all know that TIM HOLTZ is coming to 911??



Yes... the one and only...






Is he not one of the cutest things you've ever seen? He is going to be teaching at the store June 2nd and 3rd. If you haven't seen the "calendar" or "what's new" on the main website...you must go there NOW to find out what he is teaching and decide on which class you want to take!! I would call very soon, tho, as I know classes are almost full.

*****

I made a quick stop into the store and found the girls unpacking lots of great new product. Oh my...you should see some of this stuff from TIM. It is yummo!! I will spare you the anxiety and worry until you can get there in person...here are some pictures for you...










RAK...RAK...RAK...RAK...RAK

Who wants to play a fun game? This is a fun one!! Let's see who can guess Tim Holtz's favorite soda!! Yup...pretty simple. All you have to do is leave me a comment with your guess and you'll have a chance to win this...

Hey there...Hi there!

Have you all seen what Miss Elsie is doing on her blog? Look here...

She is doing this silly self-portrait challenge. And if you remember, I challenged you all to take a picture of yourself a while ago...in honor of Elsie. I hope you all did it. I know SOME of you did...yay for playing along! But I just love how Elsie inspires me in so many ways...not just to take a picture of myself. If you get a chance to read her blog, I promise you will enjoy it. She is young and hip and a free spirit. She is so incredibly talented. Plus if you look at her blog, you'll get a peak at some of her product that is coming VERY SOON!

It is supposed to ship on Friday. That means we should have it in the store by Wednesday or Thursday. Please check here for updates...I promise I will post immediately when I see it with my own eyes! You are going to LOVE (Elsie) IT!

It is the latest thing to hit the Internet...surrounding Scrapbooking. It's fun, creative, inspiring and NEW. Go check it out.

I will be back soon.

*** Hello. I hope you're all having a great week so far. Tomorrow is Friday. TGIF. ***

If you didn't get a chance to come in to the store over the weekend and for the big sale...here is some new stuff that has come in recently. I've talked about some of this stuff (ie: glitter adhesive paper) and now you can see a few pics. Now these pictures were taken on Saturday, the big sale day, so a lot of this product may be low in stock or out. I can't tell you for sure. And if want to be sure before you drive over to the store...give them a call and I'm sure they can tell you what's left.

For those of you who've been patiently waiting for the exciting new line from Love, Elsie (Elsie Flannigan)...we have gotten word that they will be shipping her stuff to us on the 15th. Once it ships, it could take a good week or more to get here. BUT YOU KNOW ME...I WILL LET YOU KNOW A.S.A.P when it arrives. It is going to be so good...i just know it is going to be better than what I remember!!

**** Wanna see some stuff I worked on recently????? ****

Ok...just a few layouts for some inspiration or ideas. Have fun and HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY. Enjoy .

How was your NSD? Did you all scrapbook? I hope so! I got to scrap for a few hours...after my kiddos went to bed. I wished I could have cropped all day, but sometimes it just doesn't work out the way you want!!

Here's what I accomplished in a couple of hours last night. I wanted you all to know that we got in some super cool stuff from Making Memories...one in particular is the glitter adhesive paper. I don't know if that is the correct name for it, but I am soooo in love with it and I have to go back and get more. There were lots of great colors, but I only picked up the pink and turquoise. You'll see a little bit of it in these two layouts. I am telling you...it rocks! You can cut out anything you want with it or use it as your background paper...use your imagination!! Go get some before it's gone...oh and it looks so much better in person!!

Will post more pics later...see ya!

CONGRATS...CONGRATS...CONGRATS!

The winner is...

Gina, this blog is awesome. I love seeing your lo's plus all the new stuff at the store. We were just at IKEA on Wed....hope you have fun there and at Fiesta.

Please email me (the ginajam address) and let me know your full name and email address so I can let you know how to claim your gift certificate!!

Dania and Lauren helped me with the drawing today (along with my little ballerina). Thanks for your help, girls!!

The all day crop today for NSD looked like lots of fun. Here's a few pics of the action. If you haven't been there yet...get in before you miss out on all of the good deals.

Be sure to check back for more pics of new stuff...I'm not sure how long it will be in the store after this weekend is up. But if you're dying to know...more good stuff from Lil Davis, Making Memories (you will love it) and Karen Foster.

ONE MORE DAY!!

If you've been too shy to comment or for some other reason you haven't...you are blowing a chance at winning a $25 shopping spree at 911. Come on...I can't do much more to help you out. I want to give a shout out to everyone else who is playing along!! I will have a winner posted on Saturday...

NATIONAL SCRAPBOOK DAY!

Are you all planning to stop in and take advantage of some of the great deals? When you open up the home page to Scrapbook 911, there is a picture of this adorable little boy and he is holding an egg...click on that egg for awesome coupons for Saturday only!! You can't miss this big day. This is the one day a year when we are recognized. It's a day when we all should be scrapbooking, having fun and buying lots of goodies at a discounted rate!!


Oh and if you are planning to stop in...you'll notice some really fun new stuff from Creative Imaginations. OoooLaLa. It's all great. I'll let the pictures do the talking. Oh and once again...I apologize for the not so perfect pictures (I'm still without my puter and photoshop!).








Don't forget you can double click on any picture and it'll blow it up for you!

Have fun looking!

Happy NSD!!

It's Raining...It's Pouring!

Are we getting the rain this spring or what? I'm used to it at this point, but what I'm not used to is getting my computer zapped by the lightening! Yes...I encourage all of you to have some kind of surge protector or as the Geek Squad guy told me...make sure you unplug your computer from the wall!

I have lost everything...minus a few pictures that are floating out there on Shutterfly. PLEASE do a back up of your stuff. Especially pictures!! You do not want to be in my shoes right now. I keep trying to cheer myself up with thoughts of a brand new computer! And then I think about how much we have to spend to get to that point!! It really stinks!

Enough of my pity party! Have you all commented yet for the big $25 gift cert? You have until the end of Friday to do it. I am so impressed...a lot of people are de-lurking! I love it! You can do it...I promise it won't hurt.

I should be having a bunch of pictures coming up in the next week...my little birdie told me that we are expecting lots of good stuff. Keep checkin the blog and I'll have updates as soon as possible.

Oh...have you noticed our card stock selection lately? It's really looking good. We just got a ton of Prism (love their card stock) and now the girls are organizing and stocking it full!

Also in...Tim Holtz paint dabbers (so fun) and some really cool stamps! Here...look.

Also...our selection of magazines and look books are great right now! One you may really love is the new Autumn Leaves book about using clear stamps. It offers over 50 new and different techniques using your stamps. It's awesome and has a ton of ideas and inspiration. I also love the Making Memories Rub-On Doodles. They come in black and white...LOVE THEM!

As always...stay tuned for new product and lot of inspiration. Sorry the pictures are dark and not cropped. I miss my Photoshop so badly right now! Have a fantastic Wednesday!
