Spring News 2010
Glad the warmer weather will be here soon, it’s been a long cold winter and I am looking so forward to
Spring. Here’s hoping all the new Spring scrapbooking products will help chase away the winter blues.

I’m celebrating my 5th year in business this spring. I’ll be having my annual
Anniversary sale for 2
weeks
this year, to give all of you a chance to stop by. From May 5th to May 15th,all products in the
studio are
35% off.

Memberships are now available for 2010, if you haven’t yet please renew for the year. For only $30.00
you can use my studio anytime during open hours. Available for use are all my tools, stamps, Cuttle bug,
Cuttle kids, machines, stamps, paints, stencils and tons more. You get double stamps on your   frequent
buyer card the last Saturday of every month, heads up on  special deals, free Scrapbooking & Cards
Today magazine (reserved for you), a 40% member sale item each month, reduced fees for crops, and
more. I expect my new E-craft electronic die cutting   machine to arrive this spring, it will be available for
member use as well.

Be sure you become a
“fan” of Tina’s Scrapbooking Creations on Face book. It’s the best way to see all
the new products, learn about monthly specials, and keep up with all the events     happening  in and
around the studio.

The Craft and Hobby association (CHA) craft trade show was held in January. New products from this
big event have started to ship. Already in the studio are new products from: Little Yellow Bicycle (Gen Z
line), new smooch and Glimmer Mist colours, Star wars papers, Basic Grey Sugar rush and Origins  
collections, new blocks, bowling and poker paper from Scrappin’ Sports, Martha Stewart crafts punches,
zip dry has been restocked, new Glue glider pro adhesive and a new vellum spray   adhesive. Tons more
you’ll have to stop by to see it all!

Products pre-ordered from CHA include: from Basic Grey (Max and Whiskers, Green at Heart, Basics
line, and Cappella collections), Making Memories (Pitter Patter Oliver & Sophie), Imaginisce (Scooter’s
Vacation collection, Spellbinders (new spring dies), Cuttlebug, (entire line of new dies is coming). More
new products will be arriving from Jillibean Soup, Bo Bunny, Fancy pants, Best Creations, Tattered
Angles ( Glimmer Glaze and Glimmer Glam), and much more.


Be sure to check the website for the monthly sales and specials. Every month there is a new sale. There
is also a special sale for member’s each month as well. There is a draw for a   scrapbooking product
each month in the studio as well. Be sure to fill out a ballot each time you make a   purchase or take a
class.

If you want to create a special project at home and don’t have time to take a class be sure to ask about
page kits and mini album kits. I have several kits that have instructions or starters to help you create a
great project at home. Suitable for beginners or advance crafters. I have several   examples in the studio.

Congrats go out to Johanne Cloutier from Embrun who won the Fall contest and a $20.00 gift   certificate.
Spring kits are now available and contest projects are due May 29th. Be sure to stop by the studio and
vote for your favourite Winter page.

More congrats  for Johanne Cloutier and to Lois Riley who won  challenges at my Winter crop!!!L!e
taking a break from crops for this season, I hope to have another crop in the Fall. I am currently looking
for interested people to start a Friday night crop group here in the studio. Please let me know if this is
something you’d be interested in. I can fit about 8 people and would like to do a pot luck night to run from
@7:00PM to midnight on Friday nights here in the studio.

Please stop by the studio to see all the amazing projects from my Design Team these ladies continue to
amaze me with all the create.  Many projects  are displayed in my studio and  most are on my Web site or
Face Book pages, and are all available for us to “scraplift”. Need help creating one of these projects,
stop by and I can show you how they did it and show you what techniques and products they used. I also
feature a “technique of the month” from one of the designers in my front entrance. Be sure to check
these out for a jump start to any project.


The new Spring issues of
The Canadian Scrapbooker (available March 1st) and Scrapbook and Cards
Today (
March 26). Due to increased costs I will be getting only 50 issues of the   Scrapbook & Cards
Today magazine.  Members will get the issues free and have a copy here reserved for them. Non-
members will get the issue free with purchase, on a  first come first serve basis ( I do not save issues).

Don’t forget I do children’s Birthday parties as well (ages 6 and up). You must book several months in
advance, these are very  popular!,or only $15.00 per child you can make a project of the child’s choice
and make free invitations. There are games and prizes during the party.

Doing my part to reduce and recycle. I do no purchase plastic shopping bags (haven’t in my 4 years in
business). Please collect your advertising free bags and bring them in for me to re-use, or bring your
cloth/canvas grocery bags  to use when you shop here. The reusable grocery bags are a perfect fit for all
the 12 x12 scrapbook items.


If you would like to book a crop, class, or event  please contact me. I will do a class for 3 or more people
at your convenience. You book your own date, time and project. I have over 75  different projects
available to choose from. Some of the choices are: Clear wall hanging, altered canvas, tons of mini
album classes, scrapbook in a box, accordion album, basic or advance    scrapbooking, card classes,
Cuttlebug , techniques classes and so many more. If you are interesting in booking a class or Birthday
party please book several months in advance I am extremely busy with bookings and events.


Looking forward to the warmer weather, hopefully I’ll see many of you coming out from “hibernation” real
soon!
