Still Up and Running

I thought I should address a concern many of you are having.....

We are still OPEN!!!  Yes, the store is (unfortunately) for sale. But, NOTHING is changing as of now. If, I don't find a buyer, I will be remaining open until further notice.  So, things will remain the same-don't worry, I am not going anywhere right now or in the near future!!!

We have ordered new product lines, and they will begin shipping at the end of the month-so keep posted for that news. I will let you know when they are arriving!!!

We do have classes, crops, etc. with openings-please stop by and keep us going!

Thanks, see you soon-Heidi

Scrappin' Friends News

I am sad to say, that I must put Scrappin' Friends up for sale. This has been a difficult decision for me, but it is necessary, as my husband has not been able to work much this last year, and therefore, I must go back to work.  So, the store is for sale. If you are interested in purchasing it, give me a call and we can talk! 

I am hoping someone will be able to keep our store up and running for our community of scrappers! 

Take care, Heidi

Angel Company Stamp Club

Hello to all- 

Angie Kelley is our Angel Company Stamp Demonstrator. Angel Company Stamps are fabulous rubber stamps that are reasonably priced and the catalog is very large with a great assortment of stamps. We have a very fun club that is held monthly here at Scrappin' Friends on the first Wed. of each month at 9:30 in the morning. Angie brings a fabulously fun project each month to complete and demonstrates some great techniques for us to try and play with. As a member of the club, you are required to purchase $15 in stamps,  or other catalog goodies and pay a club fee of $5 (which covers the cost of the project) each month. So for very little cost, you get to create with others that enjoy stamping, and meet up with friends each month.

If you are interested in joining, please give us a call here at Scrappin' Friends, and I will pass the info. onto Angie. She only takes 12 people in the club, and we currently have a couple of openings. Don't miss out on the fun!!  (722-9200)
