Halloween Photo Shoot

Ladies,

We still need at least ten more people signed up for the Halloween photo shoot to be a "go". Please call the store this week if you are at all interested in participating. Remember, you can bring your kids (or spouses) dressed up in their Halloween costumes or not, you can bring your pets, your family, do a portrait of just you and your Sweetie....we don't care! We will have a "fall" background, so anything is possible. What an awesome way to get the jump on some family photos for Christmas!!! Please call the store at 217/347-3600 if you have any additional questions.

There's a lot going on around here this week. We are getting ready to participate in the Halloween parade AND find the time to play with all of the new papers & embellishments that just arrived.
We have 3 new Christmas papers that are to die for! The papers are embossed & the colors are simply luscious. We also have some new Disney papers. Tinkerbell never looked so good! (I'll post pics as soon as I remember to take my camera to work with me.)
The kits for the "pages of the month" are quickly dwindling. If you have months that you need to fill in, you better not put off picking them up for very long.
Happy scrappin!!
