WOW. What a FRIDAY!
We only thought it was going to be slower today. Thankfully, it was not. It was crazy busy. People lined up into other booths waiting to get their Crafty Scrapper Items. Sold almost all of the Maya Roads that we got yesterday, and a bunch of the LUXE paper packs. We still have lots more stuff for you and an extra discount for Saturday shoppers!! Come see us

Directions to the Store from GASC
Several have asked so here are directions from the Convention Center:
Take one of the many roads over to Highway 360. (it intersects with I-30, Road to Six Flags and Randol Mill Rd -- all right near the convention center)
Take Highway 360 south. It will change into frontage road on the south side of Arlington, but you are still on the right road. Highway 360 dead ends into Highway 287. The traffic on 287 does not stop, so be very careful at this intersection!!
Take a left onto Highway 287 (you will go across one lane of traffic, then stop and turn left)
Highway 287 will go right into Waxahachie, but if you take Business 287 as you near Waxahachie it is a straighter shot to the store. (Pass through Midlothian on 287, go approximately 7-9 miles and then you will see another business 287. Take this one)
Highway 287 will wind a little bit and you will go under I-35E. Keep going. You will pass a lot of beautiful old houses. Keep going. At the stop light for Main Street & Hwy 77(also called Elm St), take a right. Take this west a couple blocks to the light (Madison St) and then turn left. Go two blocks after turning right, this will be College Street. Turn Left (one way street) and go about 1/2 way up the block and there we are on the left side of the street.
Remember you can always call if you get stuck somewhere and we can direct you from that point. 972-923-3151. Thanks.

When Are You Coming??
We saw some more familiar faces today at the GASC, but know there are many more who haven't been out there. Today we picked up 13 boxes of Maya Roads Stuff, we had run out of so much of it Wednesday....sooo if you were one of those disappointed that we were out of a Maya Road product that you wanted, check back in with us Friday.
Many have taken the LUXE classes and did some great layouts with their black & white paper. In the class they are giving out a coupon to use on their paper packs. We are the only ones carrying their line.
Lots of positive reactions to the Queen & Co. and the Love Elsie Line--much different than what they had seen in the other booths, they said. Several like the look of the booth with the beach theme.
It was really crowded today, and although we are hoping for a good day, we are not expecting it to be as crowded on friday, so if you were one of those who couldn't get into the booth or felt like the check out was too long...come on back.
See you soon!

Today at GASC!
We saw a LOT of our friends out there at the all day crop. Was a busy day. We had shop set up in the crop room and also worked in the booth in the main hall. We are planning for a busy few days of sales and have tried to stock the booth as full as we could. As we said, we have the beach umbrella up and the beach theme going in the booth again this year. We are in spaces 506 and 508. When you come into the main convention area, you will notice that there are huge signs hanging above the aisles. We are on aisle 500. In fact we are sitting almost right under the sign that says "500". Hope to see you this week!

What is GASC? Where are the Girls? Where should I go? What will be there?
It is TIME. The Great American Scrapbook Convention also known as GASC is starting this week. Check out specifics for the Arlington show HERE .
Even though On-line registration is closed, there are openings that can be filled that day in all the classes and in the crop. Remember that there are food vendors, but they were only taking cash last year, so plan for that!
Here is the Crafty Scrapper Girls Schedule:
Tuesday: get things packed up in the afternoon & evening
Wednesday: head to Arlington Convention Center EARLY so the booth in the crop room will be ready to go when the crop opens up at 10:00 AM. This booth closes at 5:00 PM that day. While some are in the crop room selling and showing, others will be in the bigger hall setting up the main booth. We are right next to the spot we were in last year, and we will have our beach umbrella --- so hopefully, we will be easy to find. We are right on the way to the "Make-N-Take" booth, so if you can get there, look for the umbrella and come see us!
Thursday: open up at 9:00 AM for selling!! Come see us early for best selections. Last year a lot of the most popular items were gone by end of Thursday.
Friday: open again at 9:00AM
Saturday: Open at 9:00AM at the Convention Center
Now, the main store will be open as usual back in Waxahachie, so if you don't feel like heading out to Arlington and parking and walking that much, just stop on by the store as usual.
Now...what will be at the show in our booth??? LUXE, Love Elsie, Daisy D, Moxie, Creative Imaginations, Queen & Co, Lots of Stamps and other pretties. Several ideas that haven't been out in the store yet and of course US! Come see!
Hope to see you this week at one of the two spots!

New Scrap Can
These are the cutest little finds...they are little (and big) and they fold up to fit in your crop bag....This is a company we found while checking out the temp vendors and we loved them...they are for those scraps to keep work spaces nice and tidy.
This picture is of the owner and her worker bees promoting their product...they were just too cute we had to take their picture!
See you soon!
