Greetings, friends!
Good grief! Here it is, the end of January already. And, I'm quite happy about that, to be honest. We're that much closer to the end of winter!!!! And, it also means the Open House is almost here! Our bi-annual open houses are my favorite times of the year. First of all, the staff is all together on those days, and that rarely happens. I do love these ladies! But, we also get to see you. And eat chocolate.... Hope you're planning to join us. It's supposed to be a balmy 47 degrees this Saturday...hope, hope, hope!
Fondly,
Angela

Winter Open House
We hope you plan to join us Saturday, February 1 for our Winter Open House. Our afternoon make-and-takes are full, but we have a fun morning planned with 4 fabulous demos, including how to get great cuts with the Memory Box detailed dies. These demos will run from 10:30 - 12:30 and are completely FREE! No registration is required. Plus, we have fabulous goodie bags just for stopping by (one per family) and additional door prizes every 20 minutes. You can get extra tickets for the door prizes by bringing in items for our Community Outreach project - Bright Spaces in Vienna. You can find out more about this organization and their wish list of craft supplies on our web site. Hope to see you there!

Sweet n Sassy Returns
We are so excited to welcome back the ladies from Sweet n Sassy. This time, they will be teaching a card class on Friday, February 28 followed by their incredible trunk show on Saturday, March 1. You can register on our web site for their card workshop (we expect to fill up quickly, and they are trying to get the projects mailed to us this week so we can display them in the shop during the Open House on Feb. 1, so don't wait). If you can't join us for the workshop on Friday, do NOT miss the opportunity to see their incredible booth display and shop on Saturday. They bring hundreds of card samples, so bring your camera. They will be available to answer questions on how to recreate their cards, and they LOVE to meet new people.

We've also added tons of great new classes for February and March. Several of you have asked about Laura's fabulous Intro to Copics class, and it's back on February 12. Marilynn's Art Journal classes are so popular, that she's now teaching them 3 times each month. Visit our web site to see the latest listings - we add more classes all the time!
