The kids are back in school, temperatures are already beginning to drop, routines are being set up, and dare I even say holiday decorations are starting to appear in the stores. It is time to start thinking about where scrapbooking and paper crafting are going to fit in. We are carrying these INCREDIBLE books called Sketches for Scrapbooking. There are 6 volumes! Each Wednesday in September we are going to post a sketch in our newsletter, Facebook, and our blog. Our hope is that you will find inspiration with these sketches and actually complete 5 pages using the sketches in September. We are even making it easier for you, every Wednesday in Sketchtember, we are offering Make A Layout Wednesday! You can come in any time on Wednesdays and make a layout. On September 1st, the layout is only $6! Please bring trimmer, adhesive, scissors and brown ink.

 Here is the layout for Wednesday, September 1st!

Here is Shanan’s interpretation of the sketch:

Terri’s sample:

We will be open Thursday-Saturday 10am to Midnight and Sunday 9am to 4pm.

We hope to see you soon!

For the entire month of June, there have been about 300 of us doing a Summer 12 x 12 album. Every week in June, we have sent out 2 emails (Mondays & Thursdays) that included different layouts (10 double page layouts total!).

We are going to share it with you. I hope you enjoy!
