Stamping . . .

We had a great time at the stamping class yesterday. Beth Thomas was really nice and a great teacher! If you missed it, she's coming back on Saturday, April 25th. She will do an introduction to Copic markers. If you haven't tried them, you've missed a great deal of fun! We had 7 people yesterday, and we already have some signed up for her next class.
We are expecting a big Notions order probably on Wednesday or Thursday of this week. I will place a Morgan Company order from home today and an Amuse Stamp order tomorrow.
We still have some of the Grade book kits, the Christmas book kits, "A Year in Review" by Basic Grey, and others. Come in and take a look around!

Home & Garden Show. ..

A big "Hello" to all of you I met Saturday and Sunday at the Home and Garden Show at the Civic center. We had more new folks visit our blog yesterday than ever! I can't help but believe many of those new people were folks who took a business card with our blog address. I really enjoyed both days - meeting new people and visiting with many of our customers!!!
Tiger Lily in Fort Payne is also a place you've got to visit! Slade Carden (the owner and one of my former students) is so talented! Drop in to see him sometime!
This Saturday is the stamp class with Beth Thomas of Amuse Stamps! We can't wait! We are already scheduled for another class with her in April. I will post the details after this class on Saturday.
We still have lots of new items in the store! Come in and browse!

Shameless plug...

One of my former students is opening his own florist/catering/gift shop in Fort Payne this weekend. He is MEGA-talented! Go by his open house Saturday and/or Sunday and see all his good stuff! He is located next door to Sonic at 601 Gault Avenue South in Fort Payne. It is called "Tigerlily." Good luck, Slade!!!!!

Calling all Ericas. . .

I recently placed an order with Morgan & Co. for a monogrammed purse for an "Erica." Unfortunately, she was an "Erika" - my fault. So, we are offering a black houndstooth messenger bag purse with "Erica" monogrammed in Red at cost. Check it out at www.morgan-company.com
Click on monogram bags. It's the VICKI-BLACK. We will sell it for $20.00. (We will ship if you will pay shipping.) Thanks for your help!
