THE SNOW IS GONE... WOOO HOOO!

I'm so not a fan of the snow. I mean, it's really nice to look at, but when school gets canceled for 3 days because of it... yeah... really doesn't sit well with me. It prevents us from getting things done.... like getting into the scrapbook store...

Which you should do before the month is over because we have a GREAT special on our die cut membership right now. ONLY $15!!!! On February 1st, it will go back up to $18. Even if you just come in a couple of times a year it is a great deal.

Do you know what you get with your die cut membership? You get unlimited use of our die cut center (with over a 1000 dies - look here to see all of our dies), plus use of the classroom and tools when there are no private parties or classes scheduled and a die cut every month. Call ahead to reserve your space in the classroom ( 425-670-3721)

If you haven't checked out Tina's blog, you really should. She creates the cutest things using our diecuts.

So... what are you waiting for.... get in and get that membership before the price goes up!

Happy Scrappin,
Andrea

classes.....

So you are probably thinking how lame... she's going to talk about classes. How can those be a must have.... but did you know that Lasting Memories has a ton of classes and crop you can sign up for.

First is Tamara's Mini class on Wednesday... It's a free class! All you need to do is call and sign up and make sure you have all the supplies to make this weeks current project... I'm not sure how she does it... but she creates a new mini project every week. (She won't be teaching this week because she'll be making some delicious treats for Thanksgiving... oh and the store is closing at 5:00pm...)

The Crop-a-lots are on the Saturdays... Karie will take care of you during this 10-hour scrap time. You get lunch, snacks, and super cute make-n-takes... all for $40... STEAL of a DEAL!

And Tammy (who use to be the creative cafe gal) is teaching a homedeconomics class to create super cute fun stuff for your house... her next class is Tuesday, December 9th and you get to create an oh so wonderful "joy" banner... that is uber cute! You'll definitely get your money's worth in this class. Her work is amazing!

Check out our calendar {http://www.lasting-memories.com/calendar.html} for more classes and when they are...

Be on the lookout for some new classes and teachers after the start of the New Year... (eeek... it's almost 2009)....

the slice...

Slice You knew it was coming... yup... that is right... YOU MUST GET THE SLICE! forget the subliminal messaging... this is in your face... you MUST HAVE IT! I have been playing with mine and I even got the Noteworthy cartridge (noteworthy is my favorite line from Making Memories!)...

That is the most incredible thing about this new little machine... and it is little... only 2-3 lbs... and 6 inches wide.... my goodness... And the creative genius at Making Memories decided that the cartridges for the SLICE would match their paper lines... Like i said... Noteworthy is by far my favorite line from them... the cartridge has great embellies that totally ROCK... i love the journaling blocks the most....

When you're in the store next... take a peek and get one... we're having a special on them... get the machine, it comes with basic shapes 1 (inlcudes and alpha), Lasting Memories will give you Fall/Back to School... (that has such a cute owl), and an exclusive cartridge from MM that you'll get via a rebate check...

Seriously... YOU NEED THIS!
GET ONE NOW!

Making Memories... (again!)

Making_memories ok... here it is again.... Making Memories... yup... again... If you were lucky enough to take a class from the Making Memories girls this past weekend, then you know how absolutely awesome their new products are.

The new paperie line is definitely a must have... These are the journaling books and like their other lines match the papers and embellies!

I got to the the class on Saturday morning before i had to work.... We got to play with the new "green" stuff. This new line is just so much fun to play with. They are all monochromatic... but definitely could be mix and match with the other lines from MM. (like the new falala, their recent travel line and noteworthy!)

Make sure you get into the store soon because this stuff is seriously flying out of the store...

chipboard albums...

My_mini_album

September_29_2008_2_2 Ok, I must apologize for not posting last week. But i have a really really good excuse... it was my birthday... I officially left my 20's and became a member of the 30's club. I spent the day a little down (I had to work) but after school I went out and went shopping... got a new ipod nano... so cute... and went to dinner at the olive garden and had the never-ending pasta bowl... it was DELICOUS!

So this week, i want to tell you about these cute chipboard albums from Maya Road. Here is the one I'm making as part of my design team packet... it's got an oh-so-cool front on it that has an impression of brackets and lines.... I'm using the new american crafts line with it...

For_tamaraI hope you get in the store soon to get yours... also... be on the lookout for Tamara's mini class where she'll use the owl chipboard album!

Happy scrappin' and hello October!

books, magazines, and ideas... oh my!

Book2Book_1 It is so much fun to come in the store after being gone for a couple days (i walked in the 3-day breast cancer walk this past weekend) to find all the fun stuff that we got in...

Idea books and magazines are a great way to get inspired. I get in a rut sometimes and have no clue what I'm going to do... It's my mojo and it's gone... but when i feel as though that mojo will never come back... i take a peek at my magazines and idea books to get inspiration... And other times, i down right SCRAPLIFT (copy) an idea... to get the juices flowing.

We have some great idea books and magazine chalked full of ideas for layouts, cards, and projects. Take a peek at what Tina has done with examples in the store...

This teacher loves.....

September_8_2008_2this paper... my goodness... i told myself that when i first started teaching that I was never ever going to be the apple-teacher thing... but when this paper came in i totally fell in love with it....

Now if i was teaching in an elementary classroom, these would so be up around my classroom as art... but the fact that i don't teach that age... I'm going to scrap away some old pictures from when i was in elementary school. I begged my mom for some pics of me when i was little... these papers are just going to be perfect to showcase the awesome pics that i have...

Swing in and get this (and all the other school paper you need) before it sells out... (things fly fast out of our store.... get them when you're in...)

Look at these cute photo album in a box!

September_3_2008Ok... so we've had these in the store before.... but we just got them in again... and they are stinken cute! We have black, brown and red... how fun would it be to show a year in the life of your family members... 1 book for each person... or what about a new way to store your recipes.... They'd also be great to house pictures for the school year....

These things are just too stinken cute! Each book is a 2-up album... you can totally decorate the books individually and don't forget the box.... What a great way to display your pictures then in this super cute box o' albums!

Get yours soon!
