15, 2007 Hi
Friends, Finally,
the MINI SCOR ITS have arrived. Hooray!!
It was a long wait but it was worth it.
It has proven to be a handy tool in the card workshops.
In fact, one of the ladies who picked up her MINI SCOR IT
yesterday, jumped up and down when she got it.
The
first orders we placed have started to arrive.
We have received three shipments so far and are expecting even more
tomorrow, (Friday). If you were on the waiting list, you should have
received a call, if not, don’t hesitate to call or come in.
Angie has a pretty good list, but it was a little confusing to keep
up with who’s been called, who’s already picked theirs up and who
still wants one or more for gifts. We
have a Scor-it reserved for everyone who was on the original list and some
extras now available to show and sell. Wanted
to remind you about the classes coming up this Saturday, November 17.
The beginner class in the morning is STAMPING FUN-damentals. There is still room for two more, cost is only $10.00. We
will also have our regular monthly SATURDAY CARD WORK-SHOP in the
afternoon. This is the same
format that the regular Tuesday and Wednesday CARD WORK-SHOPS and we have
some new cards to add to the selection of cards you can make.
Hope you can join us for these classes.
Call ASAP for a reservation.
864-295-2929 Look at
our website for more info on these classes.
www.stampsandmorebyeleanor.com PLEASE
remember that we will be CLOSED on THANKSGIVING DAY and are regularly
closed on Sundays and Mondays throughout the year.
You can always check out our HOLIDAY HOURS on our website.
Since the holiday season gets a little hectic and harried for
everyone we are not having any more Tuesday NIGHT classes until after the
first of the year (i.e. We will be closing at 5:30 Tuesday – Friday
until January 1, 2008. We
will resume late hours til 8:30pm on Tuesday’s on January 8, 2008).
We will still have the Tuesday afternoon (1:00 - 4:00) and
Wednesday morning (10:00 – 12:00) and afternoon (1:00 – 3:00) CARD
WORKSHOPS if you need some creative card therapy during this hectic time.
Be
sure to check out our website for all the latest up to date information
about classes and hours. www.stampsandmorebyeleanor.com During
this Thanksgiving season I just want to say, that we are so thankful for
all of you and what you mean to our business. WE would not be here without
our great customers and that means, YOU!
God Bless You ALL! We
are especially grateful for Angie who keeps us all organized here and
keeps the website up to date, and a special thanks to our very talented,
wonderful and loyal staff and outside teachers.
They often go the extra mile to help you and we hear comments from
you about that all the time. We really want to recognize, our special HELPER, Mary, who
has moved here from Rock Hill, SC and hangs out all day long and stays and
plays and does whatever needs doing.
Thank you, Mary. Rabon
and I will be having ALL of our children and grandchildren over for a
Thanksgiving meal and we are so grateful to have found each other and true
love in our later years. Most
of you don’t know that we actually bought a new home together right
before the September convention and moved during the four hottest days of
the century. Whew, I, for one am grateful that we survived that ordeal
alone, not only survived but downsized in style and comfort. The real blessing came when we put our old house on the
market on a Monday and sold it on a Tuesday and closed two weeks and one
day later. So, in this real
estate market, that truly was a miracle and we are both grateful for that
as well. We have each other,
our health, our friends and our salvation assured. What more could we
want. Happy
Thanksgiving! Please
drive carefully and take a moment to count all of YOUR blessings this
Thanksgiving season! JUST
ARRIVED BIND
IT ALLS…we got two more orders and we have it all now except for their
wonderful BIND IT ALL IDEA BOOK. Due to popular demand they are on backorder and we are taking
names. The book is $14.95, in
color and loaded with lots of ideas.
Our BIND IT ALL specialist, Linda, says the book is worth the cost
for the “CHEAT SHEET CHART” in it that helps you figure out the sizes
and number of holes to use on different size books.
Come in early for the best selection of BIND IT ALL machines, the
ZUTTER CUTTER, coils, with more sizes, more colors and we have plenty of
the tool kits and carrying bags. Great
gift ideas, so be sure to tell Santa! BASIC
GREY FIGGY PUDDING papers are here. Linda
is planning on using some of these in the SATURDAY CARD WORKSHOP. PROVO
CRAFT CUTTLEBUG. We got
in some new die cut designs that we have never had before and Angie has a
NEW color catalog showing all of the new products that will be arriving in
Late January. You can take a
sneak peek and let us know what you want and we will call you when it
comes in. JACQUARD
has a brand new compact Pearl-Ex watercolor set that is awesome and we
love it. Apparently the
customers do too! It is
perfect size for your class kits, compact and handy to use.
MAGENTA
has a new idea book, PAPER
MAGIC – MAGENTA STYLE. It
has ideas and techniques for creating stunning albums, cards, gift wrap,
home décor and more. $24.95 It
also shows lots of ways to use their line of metallic stickers. Tim
Holtz introduced a brand new ruler. It
is part of his new Idea-ology line of long overdue and “why didn’t I
think of that” products and tools that is hitting the serious crafters
market . The description on
the package says it is “a clear measuring stick with a straight edge and grid for
drawing lines and measuring lengths, a metal strip for cutting, and evenly
spaced holes for piercing.” We
have them now and you will want to be sure you take a look at it next time
you are in. Speaking of TIM
HOLTZ, we are expecting the new line of CRACKLE PAINTS tomorrow and we are
anxiously awaiting our first order of GRUNGEBOARD.
Due any day now. In
anticipation of this new product, I want you to see his new demo video on
YOU TUBE. Take a look. (I hope this links works if not try and do a search on google.) We
have most of the GRUNGEBOARD products ordered already because of strong
initial interest from everyone here who saw the video and will be stocking
and ordering more as we hear from you and see how you like it. NEW

year around this time we get to PRE BUY the newest HERO ARTS stamps for
early delivery. WE and YOU
get to see them first. Only a
handful of stores throughout the USA get to do this. Thanks for helping us to be a PREMIER HERO ARTS RETAILER.
This year will even be more special.
