Need some gift ideas?

Tell your loved ones that Scrapbook Haus has several gift options for the crafty person in the family. Gift cards can be bought in any denomination. There are no service fees or expiration dates. The recipient can spend the gift card on merchandise or class fees. You don't have to worry about what "stuff" your loved one already owns. She can pick out exactly what she wants!

Crop room key tags are another option. Until December 24, they are on sale for $45 (regular price $60). The recipient is entitled to: three free crops, $15 in class fees, 15% discount on your birthday, access to the crop room, and full access to store dies and punches for one calendar year. What a deal! That's only $3.75 per month OR 93 cents per week.

Christmas card idea

Are you still working on your cards? I finished mine last night and made the final trip to the post office today. Here is a photo of one of mine. Instead of using the traditional Christmas collections, I opted to use American Crafts City Park collection. It includes the raspberry pink and light blue colors that are so popular this year. I stamped using Rubber Stamp Tapestry stamps in red, pink, green, and silver. The center is a cut out that allows you to view the message stamped on the inside.

Big events at the Haus

There is lots to do this Saturday, Dec 11. There is a free make n' take from 11 to 1 PM. Don't forget to register to win the gift basket! There is a crop from 4 to 11 PM. Please be sure to reserve a seat at the crop by calling the store in advance.
