National Scrapbooking Day and Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker Day festivities approaching

By now, you should know what the first Saturday in May means. National Scrapbooking Day! And this year, we're going to double the fun by adding in Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker Day. Mark your calendar for Saturday, May 5. Here are the basics of the activities and prizes we have planned for you.

• Super Saver Scrapbooking sessions: We'll be making the three layouts above, using the new Nikki Sivils, Scrapbooker "Messages" collection. As always, your cost to attend and make the three layouts is an amazing $9. To make it an even better value, we're adding in enough extra cardstock (and sketches) so that you can make the three cards shown above. At no extra charge! We'll also be giving an extra gift (announced at a later date) to everyone who attends the sessions. We only have room for 96 people in the three sessions (10, 12:30, and 2:30), so please call 417-886-0440 to pre-register and prepay as soon as possible. (For this special event, no kits are available other than to the people who are already members of the Super Sketch Club.)

• Free Mini-Classes: Nikki Sivils and her team of Katrina Hunt and Heather Schroeder will be teaching free mini-classes from 10 am until 4 pm, or as long as supplies last.

• Shopping Rewards: Spend $25 and choose a metal or bling embellishment by Making Memories. Spend $50 and add your choice of a $5.99 clear stamp set by My Mind's Eye. Spend $75 and add your choice of a $5.99 6x6 paper pad by My Mind's Eye. Spend $100 and add your choice of a $10 paper collection pack by My Mind's Eye. (In other words, a free gift for every $25 you spend up to $100. Those who spend $100 or over will go home with four gifts totaling about $25!)

• Additional Fun: Of course, we'll have one of our awesome SG snack buffets, and some larger door prizes we'll announce in the next couple of weeks.

For our long-distance customers: We can't leave you out of the fun! We'll be announcing a National Scrapbooking Day special offer that will be available on Saturday, May 5 in our online store!
