Hi Friends,
 
NEWSFLASH!!

More Convention Info...

REMINDER

Our monthly drawing will be this Saturday, July 28 at NOON!   We will also announce the winner of our latest card contest right AFTER the drawing.  Please take a minute and vote on the entries the next time you visit.  The samples are awesome!  The winner last month was Jane Lewis.  Jane told me she was a fairly new stamper and had been coming to some of our card classes and decided to enter the contest.  Her card was stunning, yet simple to do … once you knew how!  In fact, at the time she made the entry she only owned TWO stamps and used both of them on the card she made.  But, now for the rest of the story.  Jane told me she was also an art teacher!  I have often told customers, we can all do this but an artsy person can take this hobby and run with it.  GOOD NEWS… you too, can duplicate her card so be sure to take a peek when you come in.  Good luck to all of the entrants in this months contest.  Everyone is having a hard time deciding which one to vote for.  

INVITATION

Don’t forget that we are OPEN late on Tuesday nights for Shopping and for Playing.  The new format for our CARD WORK-SHOPS has been a huge hit.  In fact, many of our Tuesday night and Wednesday morning classes have been almost full.  Be sure to call and get a seat reserved for any one of the WEEKLY CARD WORKSHOPS.  Linda is doing a great job and her sample cards are on display in the shop, on the INSPIRATION STATION so you can see what you’ll be making in the upcoming classes.  Remember….please CALL us to reserve a seat.  864-295-2929

Those of you who entered the contest this month certainly out did yourselves with the entries this month.  We will announce the winner at NOON this Saturday right after the drawing for our MONTHLY GIFT CERTIFICATE winners. 

We ran out of contest kits again this month!  Angie has asked you to let her know if you want to enter...and we will prepare enough kits for everyone who wants one.  You will really enjoy seeing the 'BUTTERFLY CARD' entries for this month.  They are awesome!  As someone mentioned to me... they bought the contest kit and had no intention of entering ... they just wanted all the stuff to make some of the best cards on the board! 

More of the latest new HERO ARTS collage stamps are on the way.  They are expected any day now. 

We hope you can plan a visit soon and better yet stay for some of the classes. 

Happy stamping and we wish you a safe holiday.
