Since we are closed on Sundays now, we are going to be doing something fun on Saturdays for a while.  As you probably know, we have been working hard to clean out the backroom.  In the process, we have found some goodies that we are going to give away tomorrow!  I love give-a-ways!

Urban Scrapbooker will be closed Sundays for the next couple months.

Starting 5/6/2012, Urban Scrapbooker will be closed on Sunday, in addition to being closed on Wednesday.  Although we will not be open to the public on Sundays, we will start scheduling classes on that day again… 

National Scrapbook  

Day 

This SATURDAY (5/5/12)

Ok, I’ve been working on this all day and probably will be here late into the evening getting everything ready for tomorrow…  There’s so much to tell you about, not just for tomorrow, but in general too.  So read on…   

Here’s some of what we have going on tomorrow:

• 25 cent paper sale (yep!  you read that right!)  As you probably know, we’ve been trying to get the back room cleaned out over the last few months.  And as it turns out we have A TON of orphaned paper.  This might be singles of a line we had before, product pulled for kits that never materialized, samples I got from vendors or paper that just magically showed up (ie, I have no idea where I got it from!  LOL).  But there is some great stuff and lots of one-of-a-kind paper for you to add to your paper stash for just pennies…  
• Brand new, 2012 release Sizzix on sale   
• All Authentique 50% off  We’ll be getting some new lines from Authenique next week, so that seems like the perfect excuse to put these beautiful papers on half off sale 
• Lots of Tim Holtz goodies on sale Great stuff from Sizzix and Idea-ology will be on sale, but you’ll just have to come in to see…
• Cosmo Cricket 30% off 3 New lines from Cosmo Cricket on sale  for National Scrapbook Day only!  
• Inky Antics Stamps 2 new sample boards are here and the stamps are 20% off!  If you love HoneyPOP you’ll have to check this out.  There is a new set of stamps that does very unique flowers and borders.
• Pre-Order your eClips for only $300
• Pre-Order your Vagabond for only $199  
• Pre-Order your Distress Marker set of all 37 colors for only $100! 

National

Scrapbook

Day 

This SATURDAY (5/5/12)

I’ve got a bunch of great stuff in the works for Saturday.  I’ll send out more details later today, but I wanted to get out a quick email to make sure you’ve got a trip to Urban Scrapbooker on your Saturday plans.  We will be open normal hours so you’ll want to come early for the best selection of goodies!   

Here’s a teaser:

• 25 cent paper sale (yep!  you read that right!)
• Brand new, just in Sizzix on sale
• All Authentique 50% off
• Lots of Tim Holtz goodies on sale

I’m finalizing a few more things tomorrow and then I’ll send you an email with a bunch more information…  

DOLLAR DAYS

STARTS SATURDAY (4/14/12)

The classroom tables are filled with tons of product and

everything is only $1!

We have a bunch of great stuff from K&Co, Jolee’s stickers, markers, stamps (wood & clear), peel-off stickers, and much more!  This is not permanent pricing for most of these items and dollar quantities are limited so come early for the best selection.    

The sale is Saturday and Sunday, with a bonus day on Monday since I am a little late in getting this email out to you.  I spent all day today in class getting certified on Copic markers and tomorrow is the intermediate class.  So between getting everything priced and ready for this weekend and being in class, it’s been a little crazy.  But keep your eyes peeled for some great new Copic marker technique classes coming soon!  I learned some great information today and tomorrow will be even more in depth.  I can’t wait!

CUSTOMER APPRECIATION EVENT

Mark your calendars! 

20% off ALL regular priced purchases over $10 from 3/15 – 3/31!!!

Last Year we had so much fun with this event we did in conjunction with Scrapbook Pad, that we are going to do it again this year, even though we have to do it solo this time…  The event will run from 3/15 – 3/31 and will be full of great fun, prizes, and most importantly DISCOUNTS!  You must PRINT your savings pass for your savings and prize entries!  The savings pass will be available in the next couple days (Scrappy is leaving for Hawaii on Friday and is quite busy dreaming of the warm sandy beaches at the moment so we’ll have it posted once he gets settled).  More details will be coming in the next couple days, but I wanted to give you a heads up!

RANGER TECHNIQUE TAG CLASS #2 IS TONIGHT AT 5:30.  CALL THE STORE TO REGISTER FOR CLASS TONIGHT.  WE HAVE A FEW SPOTS AVAILABLE STILL.

LIFESTYLE CRAFTS BORDER BONANZA COMING SOON!

Purchase a Lifestyle Crafts Border die between 3/22 and 3/31 and get entered into our drawing for a $250 gift basket worth of QuickCutz border dies (one entry per die)!  And since it’s going on during our Customer Appreciation Event you’ll save 20% too!  Bonus: between now and 3/22, pre-order (and pay) for your border dies and get double entries and 20% off too!  I’ll have the list available tomorrow, or you can check out their border dies here.

CONTEST KITS will be available on Saturday and will feature Saturdays from Little Yellow Bicycle.  If you would like to reserve your kit in advance, please let me know as there will be a limited number of them available.  Check out the line here.  REMINDER: Entries from last month’s kit are due this Saturday.  They will be out for voting on Sunday (sometime…) and we have gotten some great ones so be sure to come in and check them out!

REMINISCE – Their new lines are here!  If you were at CHA preview night, you got a sneak peak at these cool new lines.  By far the most popular was Expedition, which is a generic travel line that can be used for so many places.  They also have really cool vintage inspired travel for Italy, France, England and New York with some great new quote stickers too.  Other categories include Vintage Easter (with a great double page paper option for your Easter scrapbook pages) and Graduation.  IMPORTANT: Some of these items will ONLY be here for 30 days or less!  Reminisce gave us a great option at CHA to “try out” the lines in the store and see how they do.  So if you are interested, HURRY IN!

Twinkling H2Os – We just got a whole selection back in stock for those of you that know and love these fun shimmering watercolors.  If you aren’t familiar with Twinkling H2Os, you should really check them out.  They are sooooo easy to use and are a great way to add beautiful mica shimmer color to your projects.  Plus, new colors will be coming in very very soon!  Keep an eye out for those!

Radiant Rain Sprays – Oh, what fun these are too!  These beautiful sprays have both shimmer and color so you can get really great effects.  We’ve got some new colors in and more new colors on the way!  Plus they’ve re-engineered the bottle and the spray so no more clogging!  I love that!

Masks and Resist Papers – Also from Creative Imaginations we just got in some beautiful masks that will work great with your sprays and inks. 

Creative Imaginations Papers – 3 new lines from Creative Imaginations are here!  Vibrant colors with an asian feel (check out the purple foil cherry blossom tree paper – amazing!), Moroccanish papers (I think that’s how I’d describe it, but I could be wrong…  LOL!) with teal, mustard and cranberrys – and elephants!  And (don’t tell my mom, I was going to surprise her with a little present in the mail!) a Raggedy Ann collection.  My mom and I have a thing for these adorable dolls and it’s been a while since I’ve seen and lines available.  I actually got this line in just for that reason, but it’s actually been going quickly because it’s so cute, so grab it while you can.

WASHI PAPER!!!

 I finally got in more Washi Paper and it’s been selling like crazy!  It’s been here a week and already some of the papers are half gone.  I base my price on where I buy them and what they charge me and have been told that the price seems LOW!  LOL!  But that just means it’s better for you!  Stock up while they are here
