Our "Pack my Pail" Event is happening NOW

If you remember our "Stuff my Stocking" event in December, you're sure to recognize our summertime version of it. We're calling it our "Pack my Pail" Sale.  Every weekday from June 1-18 we're offering a daily special that we're announcing on Facebook and via email.  Just like the Stuff my Stocking event, we have a limited supply of each daily special so we're offering them on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Here are this week's specials:

If you're interested in any of the items, call us at 707-445-9686 or email us at sondra@scrappersedge.net

Everything will be available for pick-up or shipping on June 22nd, which is our 17th Anniversary!  

We hope you enjoy the specials as much as we have enjoyed curating them for you.

Weekend Sales are a HIT!

 

To get customers used to using our website, we've recently started offering WEEKEND SALES. 

The first two weekends we offered a percentage off all items. We were honestly going to only do it for two weekends. However, our customers were asking if we'd continue. So, we decided to give it a try but with a twist. 

We're now offering discounts on different product categories. For example, last weekend we offered 20% off die-cutting sets. This weekend (March 19-21) we're offering 20% off pens, pencils & markers. It even includes erasers and pencil sharpeners. 

If you'd like to check out our huge selection of pens, pencils, and markers, CLICK HERE!

To receive the discount, use the coupon code WRITENOW.

As always, the discount doesn't apply to items already on sale, like our amazing Copic Marker Sale that is still in progress. (Yep, that's right. Copic Sketch Markers are only $5.85 each!)

What product category should we offer next?  Make a suggestion in the comments below!

 

And, thanks for supporting our local business.

Distress Paints are fun to use!

I am SO glad that Tim Holtz and Ranger devloped the Distress Paint dabbers!  These paints are very fluid acrylic paints that can be used on multiple surfaces. Tim and Ranger developed these special paints to be reactive with water just like Distress Inks and Distress Stains—perfect to accomplish a wide variety of creative techniques. 

Here's one of my favorite methods for creating backgrounds on tags, cards, etc. using the Distress Paints:

• Dab a few colors of paint dabbers directly onto craft sheet.
• Spritz paint with water.
• Run tag (or cardstock) through paints.
• Turn over and let dry.
• Stamp image on tag.

 Here's a sample:

The Distress Paints have a dabber tops that makes using them very convenient and mess-free.  Plus, that fact that they react to water makes blending them easy and the results terrific!

 

Now on Newsstands (and at Scrapper's Edge) -- the April issue of Creating Keepsakes. And, the cover features papers we have available in our March "Get the Edge" kit from the Making Memories "Flutter" line.

We were so excited when we opened our box of Creating Keepsakes magazines to discover that they featured this fun, spring-themed paper line. Stop by and get the magazine and the kit!!

Our February Monthly Kits are ready! And, it's one I'll never forget.

Sunday night, just as I was beginning to create the sample pages for the kit, our electricity went out. Luckily, the power outage wasn't associated with an earthquake this time. Apparently, someone hit a power pole causing about 800 homes to be without power. So, what's a good crafter to do? Light candles and create the pages by candlelight! And, how appropriate for a love-inspired theme!

Here's the sample pages! Enjoy!

And, don't forget to SUBSCRIBE to our Monthly Kit Club to ensure you get a kit every month. We sold out last month.

CHA Day 3 was very fullfilling!

I must admit, last night I was a bit nervous because today was the last day for me to attend CHA.  I was worried that I wouldn't get to every booth I "needed" to visit.  So, I took at the map of the tradeshow and marked each booth I just couldn't miss.  After my 7am Art Journaling Class, I hit the convention floor with map in hand determined to get to each and every booth marked.  And, I did it!  Yipee!

These are some of the things that I ordered today:

• Custom Diecuts & Papers -- all the local high schools (including St. Bernards), College of the Redwoods, Humboldt State, and other local interest (Humboldt / Redwoods / Hwy 101 / Pacific Ocean, etc.)  These are sure to be a hit for both tourists and locals alike!
• Creative Imaginations Papers & Embellishments -- way too many lines to list!  But, very, very impressive.  You'll love 'em!
• Hero Arts stamps -- wood-mounted, clear acrylic, and red rubber cling mount.  They have the greatest designs.  What a variety -- I ordered everything from Russian dolls, to Asian, to outdoors, to floral, to cute kids -- you name it!
• Zutter -- the new Zutter Cutter and Disress it all are on the way!
• And even more!  I'm so exhausted I cannot remember everything that I ordered.  Don't worry though; you'll love it!

Another great accomplishment is the new Point of Sale system I ordered today.  It's a computer system that will make our lives, as well as your lives, much much easier!  First of all, we'll be able to check you out quicker 'cuz we'll be scanning barcodes.  Gotta love it!  Plus, it will keep track of your purchases.  So, if you're not sure if you already have a paticular item, we'll be able to look it up and let you know.  Another fun feature is that when you sign up for a class, it will print on your receipt a list of things you need to bring with you.  In fact, it will even send you an email reminder about your upcoming class!  There are alot more features that will enable us to provide you with even better customer service than we already do.

Well, Mom and I had a wonderful dinner at Roy's Hawaiian Fusion Restaurant tonite.  My belly is full and my eyelids are heavy.  It's time to get a bit of R&R before the journey home. 

After I get home, I'll post more of the pictures that I took - of both products but also ideas!!!
