Hi Everyone,
Wacky Wednesday Cards and a Special One Day Sale
Tina has been a busy girl designing cards that you will love to make. Available all day Wednesday & Thursday, just $2 each.
One Day Only!
The New Hero Arts stamps have arrived!
 I'm so excited for these new Fancy Pants Beach Bum lines.
I see mini albums in the future. I'll get photos of the girl line tomorrow.
  We R Memory Keepers came out with new Destinations Tags.
New smaller packages of Dew Drops
I spent my weekend prepping flowers for my Flower Making Frenzy class this Thursday. This class is sold out but I will be running another session in the weeks to come. I also have enough flower ideas to run another two different flower making classes.
If you are signed up for this class, Please bring scissors, hot glue gun and extra glue, embossing stylus or rub-on roller. If you happen to have the tool kit from Punch Bunch, bring it. Regular tape runners will not be strong enough to hold on many of the flowers that we are making.
 As many of you have heard, Lisa Hetrick is no longer designing stamps for Unity. If you loved her designs, you will love the new adventure she is going on. Click Here. Sunday May 15th 12-5 PM It's time for a Scrapbook Yard Sale! If you have scrapbooking & paper crafting "overstock" that you'd like to sell, then this is the event for you!
You may sell any scrapbook, rubber stamp, storage containers, stickers, inks & even handmade creations. This is a Yard Sale, so customers will be expecting Yard Sale prices.
Here are the details:
Cost to participate is $15 per table inside the store. Each customer is responsible for setting up and working their own table. Set up starts at 11 AM.
All customer yard sale purchases must be made using Scraps Cash (store credit).
Scraps Cash is not redeemable for actual cash but can be used for purchases at Photo Scraps.
We will have the Scraps Cash available for purchase starting May 9th.
This is a great way to clear out your stash of things you haven't used in a bit & in turn get credit to buy the latest & greatest supplies to start fresh!
Save a Tree, be a Photo Scraps Bag Lady
Everyone has been asking when the bag lady bags would be here and they have arrived. This year Quick Quotes has been nice enough to sponsor our Photo Scraps Bag Ladies. We love their wonderful class kits. Photo Scraps wants to do our part in the movement to go Green. Many manufacturers are using recycled papers and soy inks. Quick Quotes has provided us fun tote bags to give out to our customers who want to go green. Spend $100 on merchandise (Gift Certificates, class fees and crops not included) and you will receive a free tote bag.
Here is the best part. All of our Photo Scraps Bag Ladies will enjoy 5% off of all future purchases in 2011 just for reusing your bag. We will also have special Bag Ladies Bonus Days throughout the year. (Bag must be present for discount to apply. Discount can not be combined with any other discounts or promotions.

April Design Team
Playing with Cosmo
...and I don't mean Kramer :)
Here's a little project I put together to share some memories and PLAY with new products from Cosmo Cricket, Tim Holtz and ANW Crestwood.
I used the brand new TPC Studio Beyond the Page frames to creates this fun piece of memory decor. These are super fun to play with. Plain white frames, ready for you to get creative with. A BLANK CANVAS. Wowsa!
Using the new Cosmo Cricket UPCYCLE paper line, some Tim Holtz dies, distress inks and crackle paint, I created this super fun wall frame complete with a GOOFY pic of 4 Lisa's and a Tracy from CHA, LA 2011. See it LIVE and in person at PhotoScraps. Hurry, get the paper before it's all gone. I may have gone a little overboard with the perfect pearls, but I just can't help myself.
And... if you don't have this die yet... You gotta have it. It makes creating those cute paper rosettes a cinch!
I rocked that Viking Hat!
Get your Art on! -Lisa Hetrick
