Weekly Update: August 26, 2005

Hello Everyone. I am going to make an attempt at giving you a weekly update! My road of recovery, from surgery has been very slow and rough, so I haven't been able to focus on the store. A great big "THANK YOU" to Jenny, Jane, Margaret and Jeannie for pitch hitting, and working all those extra hours in my absence! What a great group! Thank you to so many of you, for your phone calls, E-mails, cards, flowers, books and other gifts! I am so blessed to be in an industry that I love, where the greatest benefit that is received, are the friendships that are made, simply by touching lives! Thank You! I still have some rough road ahead and several more weeks of limited activity, but I expect to be back to full speed, as quickly as I can!

One of the worst things about convalescing at home is that you are faced with all of your "un-done household projects". While I am unable to do anything about them, I see one job after another that needs to be tackled, and I grow more frustrated at the inability to tackle them. SOOOOO, I have begun to compile a list of some of the things I am able to do. Forgive me for using this forum for my personal use but I'm hoping under the circumstances, you'll allow me to do so. My Condo renovation began before my surgery. I have new furniture arriving in a few weeks and must sell some things to make room. If you are interested in any of these items please give me a call at the store.

Loveseat & Ottoman $600.00  

Patio Table with 6 chairs, 2 are swivel $450.00

I will also have a great Scrapbook desk and storage accessories in a few weeks. These will not be available for several weeks so I'll post photo's later!

Ok, now on to the business of SCRAPBOOKING!

Our bus trip is still on, despite the inclement weather! A little rain can't keep a "scrapbooker" from shopping right?? The bus will leave tomorrow promptly at 7:30 AM, filled with anxious ladies, lots of prizes and enough enthusiasm to fly us to Orlando!

                                          ****************************************************

AUGUST 31ST   5TH ANNIVERSARY  CELEBRATION FINALE

Mark your calendars, set your alarm clocks and count down till then, 'cause we'll end our summer long celebration with a bang you won't want to miss! Not only will our EK Scutto, "Grand Prize Winner" be drawn, but there will be a little something for everyone to enjoy! I promise! It's not too late to purchase raffle tickets. $5.00 buys you a chance at that awesome EK Scutto bag filled with $1,200.00 worth of brand new scrapbook products! Watch your E-mail Tuesday, August 30th for all the details!

                                             **************************************************

   has shipped. Yes, I received the confirmation today that all the new items have shipped and should arrive by next Thursday! Stay tuned for some fun and exciting promotions with Quickutz!

Weekly Update: August 15, 2005

I apologize for not getting an E-mail out last week. I am having surgery this Wednesday, and will be out of commission for awhile. I was so busy trying to prepare for my absence, that the week just slipped away from me. At any rate, I will try to fill you in on the remainder of the August happenings, in case I don't get an E-mail out next week either.

First and foremost mark you calendars for August 31st! Not only will it be the "Grand Prize Drawing" for our EK Scutto Bag but it will also be the end to our "Summer Anniversary Celebration". Ladies, you know me, I don't do things in a small way! All I can tell you now is; to mark your calendars, clear your plans for the day, and watch your E-mails for the details. I will send an E-mail out on August 30th with the details! 10:00 - 3:00 will be the time, August 31st will be the day! You won't want to miss it!


Scrapbook EXPO Bus Trip

These are just a few of the samples

Workshops
Next Saturday's workshops will be filled with laughter and fun. We kick off the day with the Bazzill Bit's and Pieces class from 10:30 - 12:30. This class is adorable. You'll learn the technique of book binding the Bazzill way, completing a 5 x 7 album in the process. Check out the sample. Doesn't it just inspire you to "think Fall"? 

Rounding out the day will be celebrity guest teacher, Julie Bateman's "By The Sea" 6 x 6 album in a day. There is one spot available in this class due to a cancellation.

Beth will teach you how to take your favorite computer font, make a rubber stamp from it and be able to use it numerous ways and times on your scrapbook pages!

Weekly Update: August 5, 2005

Wow, the last weekend before school starts and I know all of you Moms are filled with emotion. Some are anxious to send your little ones back, and have some time to yourselves again. Others are facing sending their little ones off for the first time, and are filled with anxiety. I remember those days well. It's amazing how each stage of life teaches us some new lesson. Whatever your situation is, I wish you peace and quiet, that you probably haven't had all summer, and peace in knowing your little one is just starting another chapter in their life, as well.

For you Moms sending your babies off to college, that's a whole other story. The excitement and joy you share with them are mixed with the pain and sadness of your "soon to be empty nest"! I can only tell you that it is an unavoidable process you will go through, and it's never easy. On the other side of that process though, you will be filled with a sense of pride and joy as you watch your child become an adult, almost over night! My best advice is to find projects to keep you busy and to try and avoid going into their empty rooms. Close the door until you are able to open it again without crying!

Yes, I remember each one of these stages and the emotions that each memory brings, float to the surface. Some of you will remember that when my youngest (Jenny) graduated from High School on Saturday, June 3, 2000 a new adventure began for me. After 18 months of planning, Made For Memories opened their doors on Monday, June 5, 2000 and my focus became the store. As you know, running a successful business takes more than just providing products for the consumer. It takes a great deal of planning and forecasting for the future. Without looking ahead you are not able to be productive in the present.

I was very honored and proud to be contacted this week by Steve Ruelle, the CEO of Making Memories, one of the largest manufactures in the Scrapbooking Industry. Making Memories is also in the process of planning for the year 2006 and beyond. Steve wanted my input, opinions, thoughts and ideas in several areas. We spent an hour and half on the phone discussing everything from product development to market competition and market saturation. It was a very enlightening discussion. I am thrilled to say that Steve believes that we are right on target, have a pulse for our customers needs and desires, and that our plans for the future are right on track. We are excited about the industry, and anxious to watch as the cream rises to the top. As always, your opinions are important to us, so please feel free to share your thoughts and ideas with us, as well.

Back By Popular Demand
   Autumn Leaves Designing with 2006 Calendars. The new calendars will ship in December and we have the forms for you to fill out for pre-orders. These calendars sold out last year and we reordered twice but Autumn Leaves ran out long before customer demand did. To insure your calendar please fill out a form so that we know how many to order. I will only place one order this year and I don't want you to miss out. These make wonderful gifts or stocking stuffers and are filled with incredible designs for each day of the month. Don't miss out this year!

 

New Products
 

Quickutz: ok...so these sell out so fast, they are gone before the weekly E-mail goes out. The new Stilleto alphabets came in and four of them sold out in two days. I will re-order but I suggest, if you are interested in any of the new items, you check them out on the Quickutz website and pre-order them from us, or you might never be able to get them. They fly out of here. We have all of the new items on order, but limited quantities so be sure to give us a call.
 

Pressed Petals: Funky metal alphabets and numbers in black, copper, aluminum and rustic. These whimsical letters are very popular.    

Sugar Tree: 14 new double page spread papers that are sooooooooooo awesome. 6 different ones for family including brothers, and sisters and 8 different beach papers and one with the funkiest flamingo that is just too cute!

Basic Supplies: Vellum spray is back in stock, more ink pads, magic matter, foam stamps, paints and Making Memories jigsaw chipboard alphabets and tiny tag sticker alphabets.

Buttons Galore: These crystal button alphabets and numbers are wonderful. Available in tropical

orange, blue, green, pink and aquamarine. Matching small crystal flowers in the same colors. Also assorted word tiles.

Applegate Pagekits: The new Disney Kits are in. We pre-sold so many of these, that should be an indication as to how cute they are! I placed an order yesterday for lots of other new kits. If you are familiar with Applegate, you know these designs are incredible. Watch your E-mails for their arrival dates.

Cloud 9 Designs: You loved their coasters, you love these too. Coasterettes...in 14 themes, travel, pets, and party. Also a new photo banner and ribbon border for Amusement Park...perfect for roller coaster pictures!
 

Forever Yours: new 8 x 8 and 12 x 12 albums in five solid colors and an 8 x 8 and 12 x 12 in a wonderful Seaside design. Colors include teal, magenta, sea foam, and periwinkle. The beach albums are incredible!

Have a wonderful and relaxing weekend and a good night's sleep Sunday night in preparation for Monday's school opening!

Happy Scrapping!

Weekly Update: July 30, 2005

Can you believe it's the end of July already? This summer has certainly flown by. School starts in a couple of weeks and soon we'll be back into the throws of school and sports activities. What ever happened to those lazy, hazy days of summer when we were kids... and our summers seemed to go on forever? It has been another incredibly busy week here at the store, and I apologize for getting this weeks update out so late, but there just aren't enough hours in my days anymore to do all the things I need to do. I spent 8 hours on Thursday with one of our reps just ordering new products from CHA Summer! We are so fortunate to have such incredible reps who make my job so easy! We ordered some really awesome products and new lines that are sure to please. Trust me, when I say it took 8 hours to place these orders, it was because there is just sooooooooooooo much really cool new stuff to choose from! Watch your E-mails for details as the orders start pouring in!

Workshops
Both Saturday workshops today were great fun. Becky's Alcohol Ink class was incredible. After seeing the finished samples, customers who were in the store went crazy over the look these inks created on transparencies and metals. This is definitely a class worth repeating! Next Saturday's Bazzill Card Class is adorable. There are only a couple of spots left, so give us a call if you'd like to sign up. Be sure to check the website calendar for other August workshops. There are only 2 spots available for Julie's Bateman's Class (the mini album) on August 20th.

Website Update
I am so excited about the development of our new site. It's really progressing nicely and I can't wait for the finished product. When we launch the new site you will receive the weekly E-mail via a link from the website. This will save me a lot of time but will also allow you to see the class projects, highlighted products and the weeks new items! I'll keep you posted on the details!

We already have people who have claimed them and named them before they have even arrived. If you have your eyes set on a specific item, please pre-order with us. We don't want you to miss out!
