Greetings!

We hope you're all enjoying the great weather we've been having over the last few weeks.  When you've taken all the photos you can and need a break from the heat (...and let's face it, the kids & husbands too...), come in & join us for one of the many crops scheduled for this summer.  We've managed to make the store even cooler this summer, so grab a few friends & that bottle of wine you have on ice & we'll see you at our next crop!
 
Don't forget to clip the coupon at the end of this newsletter to save $5 off your next purchase of $25 or more.  If you're having trouble coming up with something to buy, let us give you some ideas!
 
Use your Coupon for...
 
...an extra album in your favorite color
...fill that album you're working on with page protectors
...stock up on your fave adhesives
...grab a variety of adhesives you've never tried: glue dots in different sizes, our own Whimzee's red tape in different sizes, a can of spray adhesive, vellum adhesive, glue sticks and that stand-by herma refill you're always needing but never seem to have when you run out!
...go WILD, take home 25 fun patterned, themed rolls of American Crafts ribbon and only pay for 20!!!  That's more than 33 YARDS of ribbon for only $20!
 
Remember to check out our Summer Calendar of Events & Crops to see what's up at Whimzee's through the middle of August!
 
See you in the store!

So Many Ways to Find Whimzee's Online...
We all seem to be getting more & more of our information via the internet these days, and
The Whimzee's Girls are no different, never far from our laptops & cell phones.
 
After listening to the clamboring of our customers, we didn't want the store to be left out of the e-revolution, so Whimzee's has created four ways for you to be "in touch" with us on the internet.
 
TWITTER:  For those of you who tweet, Julie sends out short messages about our newest arrivals & happenings around the store on her Twitter account.  Follow her for store info., the latest on her blog and fun links to papercrafting projects all around the web.
 
FACEBOOK:  We heard you loud & clear!  You wanted us on Facebook and so now we've got a Facebook page set up just for the store.  We'd love you to stop by, leave us a message, start or join in one of our discussions or link to your latest project.  We're working on getting an up to date calendar on Facebook, so be sure to check it out too.  But do be sure to call the store to sign up for our events as we're not quite internet-savvy enough to keep up with RSVP's online...but we should be soon!  So stop by & "LIKE" Whimzee's Scrapbook Studio to have our latest status updates show up on your FB home page.  We do plan to have some special contests, just for our FB fans!
 
STORE BLOG:  If you're a blogger, stop by our blog and sign up to follow us.  We update our blog with links to our latest newsletters, sales and projects.  Scroll down the right side column to find links to some of our favorite vendors.  Send your friends here to find a link where they can sign up to receive our newsletters.  Keep scrolling down to find a box in the "Get Answers" section where you can ask questions.  And be sure to check our "Topics" section to find just what you're looking for from online classes to projects using specific products.
 
ONLINE COMMUNITY:  For those of you who love to share your latest projects and chat with other dedicated scrappers about theirs, this is the place to be!  Each member of the Whimzee's Girls Online Community, has her own page, complete with a slideshow of her original creations.  Members can design their own pages to include feed from their blogs and tons of special applications.  Post a question in the FORUM and have it answered by a variety of our members.  Members of our online community will receive benefits such as special promotions, discounts and the opportunity to attend FREE crops and create samples for the store.
 
Even if you just dabble in scrapbooking, the Online Community has something for you!  Be sure to stop by and check out the PHOTOS tab today to find 439 (and counting) project photos.  Right now, our Featured Photos are all 4th of July Layouts, created by our online friends, PaperDiva, Cynthia & Kris.  Stop by & let them know what you think of their creations!
 
The goal of our online sites is to help us better meet the needs of our creative community.  Helping the papercrafters of our area to meet each other and share ideas, while providing the latest information and events going on at Whimzee's.
 
Please stop by one or all of our sites today and get involved with the Whimzee's Girls!  You'll find links to all these pages, plus Julie's Scrapbook Blog, JulieChats, in the left column of this newsletter under Quick Links.
