Rubbing elbows with the best of them....

2009-08-01T05:44:00.000-07:00

Hi yall! Stacy and I just got back from Scrap n on the River last weekend and had a blast! So glad we got to see our friends! With not having an actual store, we do not get to see you guys that often so we are super happy when we do! A big thanks to Pam Frank and her family for putting on this crop and having us as vendors!

This year was our first as a vendor at this event. And go figure we'd meet an actual scrapbooking "celebrity"! Yes, Ms. Lisa Bearnson herself was at the event rubbing elbows with the locals. She taught some classes and gave a wonderful speech on Saturday night. The picture is me and Stacy with Lisa and our own personal "celebrity" friend, Anna Bess Simmons.

Stacy and I are now busy putting together our fall kit that will be available at Scrapfest! in September, Labor Day weekend. (www.scrapfestproductions.com) We have picked out some of the most AWESOME new papers for this kit! You will be able to scrap all of the end of year holidays using it.... Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas!!! I will post a sneek peek soon!

There are still spots left at Scrapfest so visit the website and reserve your space today! We'd love to see you there! Remember, CHA was just last weekend and we have purchased tons of new things that will be available at the crop!

Until next time, have an awesome weekend! See you soon!

We're off to see the Wizard.....

2009-07-22T10:42:00.001-07:00

Hi all! Stacy and I are off again.. this time to Scrap-n-on-the River in Natchez!

Come by and see us if you're registered to crop. If you can't crop, just come by to shop.. I believe its open to the public for shopping and there will be lots of new stuff to see! Go to www.scrapnontheriver.com for more information!

Hope to see you there!

On the Road Again....

2009-07-08T19:39:00.000-07:00

CKC Houston

2009-05-05T13:40:00.001-07:00

Been a busy month.... Stacy and I were vendors at CKC Houston. Had a good time for the most part. Kinda slow... not as many people as anticipated. Best thing about the whole weekend was our booth being right next to the Skinny Cow booth. Free ice cream all weekend!!

FINALLY! April Springtime Kits

2009-04-19T07:10:00.001-07:00

Here are some images of the new kit. Go to our website to order yours today! http://www.scrapaddictsonline.com/ Stacy and I leave for CKC Houston on Thursday and we are bringing the kits with us to sell. So if you want one, get it NOW 'cause they'll be gone when we get back! Also, we still have a few of the April mini kits available... get 'em while you can!

Have a great week!

When things don't go as planned...

2009-04-15T08:24:00.000-07:00

Hi all! Hope you guys are enjoying this awesome weather!

We've had some issues with our April kit. The paper we wanted to use for the kit has been backordered! We expect it in around Friday. We have put together this mini kit in the interim. Just enough stuff to make a layout or two and have a little left over. The cost is only $10. Click on our website link to the right to order.

Sorry for the delay and we promise to post the "real" April kit as soon as the paper comes in!

2009-04-13T08:37:00.000-07:00

Here's a little bitty project I just finished. Not my idea... lifted it from a blog that I regularly follow. Changed it up a little to reflect, well, me! Feel free to lift it again!

Have a good day... peace out, peeps.

Melissa

Happy Easter

2009-04-12T05:57:00.000-07:00

To all of our friends out there in cyberworld:

We hope you have an awesome day filled with love and happiness. Remember the reason for this holiday - the rising of our Savior and celebrate it with your family.

So go have fun... eat a good meal, hide some eggs, blow up some peeps (no, for real, put those babies in the microwave and watch them grow!).

Peace out, Peeps.

Can you say "tired" boys and girls?

2009-03-29T16:58:00.001-07:00

Hope to see you there!

Countdown....

2009-03-20T13:34:00.000-07:00

Is it time to go to work yet? By work I mean Scrapfest? I am officially at the end of my rope. Two of the four children of the corn home from school sick this week. Doctor on Tuesday. Everyone got swabbed (including me and the baby even though we aren't sick). Results on Wednesday evening.... two kids showing sickly symptoms - not sick. Me - Strep. Nice. Could this be why I am unusually cranky and tired? Whatever. Scrapfest take me away!

Peace out - Melissa

Mom' advice...

2009-03-19T07:32:00.000-07:00

Ok, so this is supposed to be our Scrap Addicts blog. You know, business. However I do not have a personal blog so you guys will sometimes have to listen to me rant.

Let me just say that sometimes your mom's advice is not all that bad. Remember when she told you to always wear clean underwear? Uh huh, well, I am just glad I HAD ON underwear yesterday.

Picture this.... you are in line at Winn Dixie. Your 2 year old is in the basket screaming bloody murder and your 4 year old is walking up and down the line you are in asking everyone what their name is and if they know his address. Whatever. You have been waiting in line for 15 minutes now. Apparently, Winn Dixie is giving something away today that you have no knowledge of. It is finally your turn to check out. You have placed all of your items on the belt only to have said 2 year old reach over all pull them off and throw them back in the basket. The 4 year old is pleading with you to buy every piece of chocolate that is at the check out counter. You have lost your patience as well as part of your mind. You move up ever so slightly so that you are standing in front of the card swipe thingy. You are almost home free. Let me remind you that Winn Dixie is super busy. Tons of people checking out in all aisles. At this precise moment, your 4 year old decides he is going to run his hand up the back of your dress and lift it as high as his head. Yes folks, I have now just flashed everyone who is checking out in the lane behind me.

I reacted so fast that I don't think I even thought about it. I spun around faster than a bat out of hell and smacked him in the head. It is amazing his nose didn't fall off. Now, not only am I humiliated because I have flashed everyone but I have now abused my kid in public. Great. Here comes Child Protection Services. I don't even remember loading the groceries into the car or the ride home.

Thank God the day is almost over. At least I can look forward to Idol.

Lemoine - Out.

2009-03-18T14:52:00.000-07:00

Here are some of the "goods" we have just received and will have at Scrapfest!

Vintage Pins from Maya Road

Pebbles from Prima

Pebbles "Chips"

Burlap Squares from Prima

Jenni Bowlin Journaling Cards

Felt Branch Accent from Prima

Milk Caps from Jenni Bowlin (LOVE!!)

And a whole bunch more!!! Can't wait to show them all to you!!!

Yes, I have finally given in!

2009-03-18T06:41:00.000-07:00

Well, it's official. I Melissa, (one half of Scrap Addicts) have finally given in to the whole blog thing. It took some time (and a lot of help from my wonderful friends Anna Bess and Kerry), but it's here! Stacy and I will both post to the blog and you can respond to either one of us.

I can't promise that this is going to be the most interesting blog you will read (unless of course I post things that pertain to Stacy's personal life - really, some things ONLY happen to her!). Nor do I promise this thing will be eloquently written (um, I am a Yat you know!). What I do promise is to try and give you some creative ideas, keep you up to date on happenings with Scrap Addicts, show you some new products and every now and then inject a little humor into your day.

So, off we go!

Have you registered for Scrapfest? HELLO! What are you waiting for?? Stacy and I are so excited about this show. Scrapfest was the first show we participated in two years ago. And thanks to you guys, we are still here! If you have not registered already, you need to hop to it! Go to their website www.scrapfestproductions.com to reserve your space!

We have all sorts of "NEW" goodies in the store and we can't wait for you to see them! I am going to try and post a few pics of the new stuff (be patient, you know, new to this blog thing and all). We are also doing two different page layouts for Make-n-Takes. We will have an Easter page layout and a Mardi Gras page layout - each for only $5. (Again... will try and post the sneak peek...)

So please join us next weekend - March 26th, 27th & 28th at Scrapfest for a whole lotta fun!

Oh and don't forget... we started a kit club in January with no membership required. Pop on over to our website www.scrapaddictsonline.com to check out the kit for March.

Well peeps.. that it's for now. Be creative and peace out!

Melissa
