Make a Digital Book!

\Hi everyone,

The week has flown by again and my days off are over.  It seems that those few days off go by so fast.  I am back to normal and the store is filled with lot of crafting items for Christmas and the fall & Winter also.

Digital books are making a big hit for the holidays and are great for gift giving.  They save you time and present a long lasting gift for your family and friends.

 Scrapbook Etc. has come out with an absolutely wonderful book.  I have written about this before but feel it deserves at minim a second mention.  If you haven't check it out go to the following URL:

                             http://stories.scrapbooketc.com/

                                                     Check out the following NEW digital book by choosing:

                        " We are Family"

                                                                       

then  Enter in :

    My stores Code: 373UJV5XRT  

if you wish to save shipping and handling charges you use the above code,

         Create your book , and I will contact you when it comes into the store for you to pick it up.

correction of previous blog note:

As previously mentioned in another article in my blog I said that Scrap book etc. was a division of Good Housekeeping Magazine but I was incorrect it is actually a division of Better Homes and Garden Magazine.  I just love this magazine and truly believe that is one of the best magazines for scrapbooking available on the market today.

Stop by the store and see the example of the book that I have to see the quality hands on is so much better than what the pictures show in the adds.

Get your holiday gifts done soon so that you'll have time to enjoy the days with your family and friends.

 

Really check it out!!  D

 

Notes of what is happening

Today was boring, home ill and slept most of the day. Now feeling somewhat better and wanted to get some blogging out to you all. I have been posting some sites and different goodies that I found of interest and thought you might. Hope you have enjoyed them.

Have some really great note pads in the store that make the neatest cards. They are from Crafty Secreats a favorite company of mine. Thought I would include a picture of some of the outsides of these cards and their web site so you can see some of the other great products. I do carry a lot of there products, just ask me when you come in.I have created a great book. It is to hold cards. If you are looking for some inexpensive holiday gift ideas it is really neat even if I did create it myself. I made it for my Sister in law as a Birthday present but sure would like to have one of my own. That leads me to the Idea of makeing it a class in early November. This ways if you see the picture and like it too you can come and create one with me out of the papers that you like. It is a good organizational tool to keep all of your home made cards in.
