Memories in the Making News!

Memories in the Making

Hello, everyone! I’m so excited to share some fun news with you! Monica has branched out to do crops and events up in Virginia, and we are very excited for her.  With all of the new things that have happened over the summer, we have lots of things to tell you about.

There will be some new faces around our crop circle. Joining Memories in the Making is Judy Woodard. Judy has been crafting since she was a kid.  She was the second Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator in Lexington County back in the mid 1990’s.  She had a great time with that career but left it to start her own specialty advertising business.  She has been scrapbooking for a long time, but until February 2011 had never been to a crop.  She came to our crop in February and immediately fell back in love with scrapbooking.  Judy and her husband Tripp have owned their paint contracting business since 1987.  They have two daughters and are now empty nesters.  Judy was looking for a new business opportunity and she and I are both thrilled that she will be joining Memories in the Making!

We will be having a “Getting to know you” crop on January 27^th and 28^th at St Martin in the Fields church in Columbia. Times will be Friday 9 am till midnight, and Saturday 9 am till 11 pm. Cost for 2 days is $65, or 1 day for $35. We will be changing our menu for this event. We will be serving garden salad, sub or deli sandwiches, and chicken salad for lunches on Friday and Saturday, and dinner will be on your own.  We will of course continue to have snacks and drinks throughout the day.  As always, if there are any particular dietary needs, please let us know ahead of time. Sign up is available at our blog immediately. All crop fees are due by January 16th. Email or call to reserve your spot!

Refer a friend – Bring a new friend (someone that has not attended one of our crops before, and when they sign up, make sure they give us your name as the person that referred them) and both of you will receive a $5 credit at the scrapbook store. How can you beat that? Bring a buddy, and get free goodies!

Let us know if you would be interested in a “Projects with the Cricut” class taught by Honey Comer. There would be an additional charge for this class.
