‘Tis the Season…

The hustle and bustle of the holiday season is upon us, and at Scrap Paper Scizzors we are doing our best to make your holiday preparations as easy as possible!

From now until Dec. 22, for every $100.00 spent in the store, you will receive a gift voucher for $20.00 off your purchase of $50.00 or more during the week of Dec. 17- Dec. 22, 2007.

And if that wasn’t enough, for the month of December only, every Wednesday from now until Christmas is WHATEVER YOU WANT WEDNESDAY!!! That’s right, you can bring in your Michael’s and Hobby Lobby Coupons and redeem them every Wednesday until Christmas!

And we will still be offering an excellent December web coupon as well!

Lastly, to make sure that you get what you want for Christmas, we will have Holiday Wish Lists available for you to fill out so that all of your friends and family will know exactly what to get for you! We will keep your wish list on file and will mark items off of the list as they are purchased to prevent duplicates. This is a foolproof way to make sure you get exactly what you want for Christmas! Even your out of town friends and family can call us up and purchase items from your list over the phone and we will wrap them and have them here for you to pick up at your convenience!

CLASSES

Throughout December we are offering a holiday card buffet to allow you to create a multitude of quick, simple stamped cards to send to all of your friends and family.

In our techniques class this month, we will use glimmer mist to create beautiful holiday tags to help you decorate and label all of your packages.

And for our project of the month, we will be creating customized name plaque frames which make perfect Christmas gifts!

To help you get a jump start on your holiday scrapbooking, we are offering classes featuring both Christmas and Winter themed layouts.

We will also be holding a Kids’ Disney Class, giving the parents a little break to do some shopping while the kids have fun creating Disney layouts and custom crowns and tiaras. This class is for both girls and boys ages 5-10. (For children under 5, parents will be required to stay and assist.)

And as always, we will be holding our Late Night Crops on the 1st and 3rd Friday of the month from 5pm-2am.

NEWS

It’s so hard to believe it’s been a year since we opened our doors for business! To celebrate, we will be holding our Anniversary Celebration the day after Christmas. We will have extended hours from 10am-10pm, and will offer tons of sale specials, as well as an all day crop! There will be great prize giveaways throughout the day, and make-n-takes for both croppers and shoppers! So come on out and help us celebrate in style and take advantage of all of the day after Christmas Sales!

And the 1 year mark means we will also be beginning our 2008 design team search! If you are interested in becoming a member of the design team for the coming year, we will be accepting submissions throughout the rest of December. The deadline for submissions is Dec. 31st. We are asking that each person submit a wide variety of artwork from each of the following categories in order for us to get a good grasp of each entrant’s scope of styles and expertise:

-scrapbook layouts

-cards

-paper crafting projects or projects using specialized techniques

There will be 6 people chosen for the 2008 design team. Finalists will be chosen through a combination of staff top picks and customer votes on projects submitted. Design Team Members meet once a month to work on projects for classes and displays. Benefits include 20% off discounts on personal in store purchases, and additional compensation is given in the form of store credit for teaching classes. (All class supplies and design team projects are paid for by the store.)
