We hope you all have had a wonderful start to the new year!  As everyone knows the new year symbolizes new beginnings, and that is very true for us this year as we move to our new location.

NEWS

We will be moving to our new location at:

403 S. Broadway Suite 2, Georgetown, KY 40324

(This is located just a few blocks down from our current location- in-between Mike’s Donuts and the Sign Shop, across from Garth Elementary.)  From our current location, if you pull out of our front parking lot and turn right onto Broadway, you will go down to the second light (1st light is Main St., 2nd light is Jackson St.) and we will be in the shopping center on the right at the corner of S. Broadway and Jackson St.

The move will take place Sun. 1/23 – Mon. 1/24 (we will be closed Monday 1/24).  And providing everything transfers over smoothly from the old location to the new one, we will reopen at the new location on Tues. 1/25.  (We will post updates as we go, so we’ll let you know if anything changes.)

We are planning to hold an open house shortly after moving into the new space, so watch for further details, and be sure to come in and check it out.

In the meantime, we are trying to sell down as much inventory as we can so that it will make our move a little easier.  What that means for you is we have huge markdowns on all of our inventory right now (these sale prices are only good only at the current location through Sat. 1/22, once we move to the new location, these will no longer be valid):

• Approximately half of the patterned paper in the store has been marked down 20% off, and you get to take an additional 20% off at the register.
• All $.59 paper is currently 4 for a $1.00
• Loads of embellishments, tools, punches, stamps, etc. have been marked down to 40% off.
• All other regular priced items in the store are currently 10% off (Excludes sale or discount items, Cricut & Cartridges.)

CLASSES & CROPS

We still have all of our regular classes and crops on the schedule, so check them out, you don’t want to miss out on these fabulous designs and opportunities to crop the night away!

• Friday Night Crop- Friday 1/14 (5pm-2am) $10.00  Come out and crop with us until the wee hours of the morning.  We supply snacks and drinks, just bring your stuff and have some fun!  And you even get 10% off all of your purchases all night long!  Call and reserve your spot today 502-570-5966.

• We will be adding a Copic I & II Class to the schedule in Feb., but have not yet been able to confirm a date with Sandi due to some personal family issues she is dealing with.  As soon as we have a confirmed date, we will get it posted here and on our calendar, so please check back in a couple of weeks for further details.

PRODUCTS

If you haven’t been in to see the great new papers and embellishments that we received right before Christmas, you’ll definitely want to come by and check them out, especially while our sale is going on!  We have tons of new themes and styles of paper, stickers, rub-ons and embellishments including Valentines, Baby, Boy & Girl, School, Sports, Vacation/Travel, Halloween, Fall, School, Easter, Grandparents, Christmas/Winter, Birthday, Army, and more!
