Make and Takes on Saturday and the 10 week countdown to 2010!!!

this saturday (10/24/2009) we'll be having make and takes from 12:30pm to 5pm!



heres the project:



there are so many fun techniques used in this project! edge scrapper, ink, border punch, distressing.....



i have the sample here at the store if you want a better peek. there's a cute little handle at the top and you can stuff this cute can with all kinds of holiday goodies! i think this would make a wonderful hot cocoa kit! just put a pack of cocoa, a peppermint stick and an extra piece of dark chocolate! yummy!!!

also, since we're demoing the Crop-a-Dile (an awesome hole puncher and eyelet setting tool) we're going to have a super sweet deal on them! When you pre-order the Crop-a-Dile tool this Saturday, you get $5 off the regular price! That takes it from $29.99 down to $24.99!!! we're expecting our shipment of crop-a-diles in the first week of november, so order yours this saturday!

and here i have some pictures from last saturday's customer appreciation day! these are some folks doing our make and takes, where they learned 2 different ways to use tim holtz distress ink!

ok so what was that 10 week countdown thing you're talkin about???? I'M SO GLAD YOU ASKED!!!! i am soooooo excited to announce this awesome giveaway we're doing! There are only 10 more weeks left in the year (where did the time go??) and we want to celebrate in a big way!

Here's how it'll work: we start off the first week with a few things in the gift basket, everyone gets one free entry per saturday and when you do the make and take, you get a bonus entry! then each saturday we add a little something else to the gift basket so at the end of the 10 weeks, the gift basket is full of all kinds of goodies! **
