Paradise Scrapbook Boutique

What a weekend!

We had a blast here at PSB over the weekend! We celebrated National Scrapbook Day with 3 full days of cropping, talking, laughing and friendship!
Congratulations to Marge, she won the Grand Prize Saturday night, a new Bind-it-all!
Congratulations to our "lucky cropper" Robin, she won a new embellishment organizer, the Grand Prize on Sunday (Robin was also the lucky winner on Friday night).
Paradise Scrapbook Boutique has lots of new paper and embellishments to share...come on in and check them out!

Par-tay - Scrapbook Style!

Up here in Paradise the fun never ends!  We're cropping for three days...Friday, Saturday and Sunday (a girl can get quite a few layouts completed with that kind of time)!

Here at Paradise Scrapbook Boutique we like to crop in style but we also like to eat in style.  Thanks to Sandie Sage, we ate in style all weekend long - just look at the beautiful table she created.  The food tasted incredible and we felt the "love" in every bite!  Be sure to check out her recipe book entitled "Love on a Plate".

Congratulations to Robin, she won a Crop-a-dile Big Bite in Friday's Grand Prize Give-a-way!

A Class Event by Mills Repco, Inc.

We're back from Sacramento and we have LOTS of new fun ideas to share!
We took lots of classes, met scrapbook designers and saw some fellow Scrapbook Store owners while we were there.  We ran into Donna Jean owner of County Purr Farm Scrapbooking, the store Karen and Deb's Mom scrapbooks at in Carson City, NV.
We took some photos of Karen chummin' it up with some of our favorite scrapbook designers:
Tim Holtz, Teresa Collins and Jenni Bowlin:

Friday Night Crop

Who doesn't love a party?  That's just what we do here at PSB, PAR-TAY (scrapbook style)!
There are a few openings left for this coming Friday night.  Stop by and sign up, you know a crop-night with the girls is just what you need!

Crop Tonight

Saturday night crop tonight!  Call for availability...sometimes there are last minute openings.

Do you like to crop for free?  Well, don't forget that every Tuesday for the entire month of APRIL you can stop by and crop for FREE!  Spend the few extra $ you'll save on supplies and get those projects done (we do what we can to help).  See you soon!

A little something

New! K&Company has fun stuff for you to discover...

Scrapbook Yard Sale

Are you one of those scrappers who just loves to weed through all of your old supplies?  I do, I find little hidden treasures...you know, like the perfect embellishment I forgot I had.  I also find some things that I just can't (or won't) use anymore.  Do you have any unloved or unwanted scrapbooking supplies?  Wouldn't it be so nice if you could get rid of that old stuff and actually make some money in the process?  Well, Friday and Saturday May 2 &3, PSB will be hosting a Scrapbook YARD SALE! For a mere $7 (only $10 if you sign up for both days), you can rent a table in the store and sell all of your extra scrapbooking stash...€“what a deal!
Call the store to reserve your table and then get in your scrapbook room and purge!  Your old supplies could be someone else's hidden treasure!

Oh yeah, and as a start - we're advertised on Craigslist!  :)

Pretty in Pink (and Black)...

Have you had a chance to check out all of the details in Rachiel's pretty pink and black chipboard album?  This is a class you won't want to miss - Rachiel used the versatile new Bella Girl papers by Teresa Collins along with lots of pearls, rhinestones, ribbon, stamping, and flowers for her pretty album class on Saturday, April12.  Seriously, these papers are so versatile that this sweet album could be used for a baby girl, teenage girl or even for your Mom as a fun Mother's Day album!  (Christie was nice enough to send a link of Rachiel's album to Teresa Collins, and Rachiel's album is posted on Teresa's blog - how cool is that?)

Here are a few pictures for you to enjoy.  (Click on any picture to see a close-up of the details.)

   

More Maya Road Samples...

Seeing all of the new Maya Road product unpacked and stacked on the table reminded me of the wonderful samples we saw at CHA, so I wanted to add a few more pictures from CHA to give you a little inspiration for your own projects.  (Sorry if some of the pictures are a bit blurry - it must have been from the excitement of the moment!)

We loved the way the Maya Road designers layerd their chipboard frames, flowers, swirls, birds, etc. on their boxes, tins and chipboard albums!  And the way they'd dangle charms or mini chipboard shapes from the edge of a tag...and stamp or add pen dots on their letters and frames...or add pearls or rhinestones to swirls, corners of a frame or even chipboard letters...  Hope you enjoy the pictures!! Click on any of the pictures to see a close-up view.

Rachiel's amazingly adorable Bella Girl Book (Teresa Collins), seriously ladies, you have to come in and check this one out.  All the crazy cute little details...Saturday, April 12th!
