Guess what we did today!??!?......

What a GREAT day!!  Today....we had our FAVORITE Sales Rep here ALLL the way from UTAH....PAUL!!!  He's with American Crafts (has been for 8 years!!)...:)    It was SO nice to sit and visit with him and pick his brain, and hear his great stories from all the "scrapbooking celebs" that he comes in contact with!!!

Our most RECENT scrapbook celeb that we (attic chicks) are just IN LOVE with is Elizabeth Kartchner!!!  We LOVE her new book "52 MORE scrapbook challenges"!!  (sold out - have more on the way no worries!)...they went SUPA FAST!!....and we just LOVE her FRESH FUN style!!  We love how she scrapbooks!!!  Plus we "HEAR" she's a super sweet heart too!  so that's always nice!!....but - (sorry getting a little sidetracked here)!.......we KNEW that we wanted to get the ENTIRE "dear Lizzy" line from American Crafts.....but after we saw it in PERSON - TOUCHING, LOVING, FEELING, SMELLING....ohhhh lemme tell ya!!  We just KNOW you're gonna love love it too!! :)  Sooooo, here are a few pics for your enjoyment !!  I knew you'd want to feel as though you were RIGHT here with us!!.....

We ordered the ENTIRE dear Lizzy Line!!  CAN'T wait for it to get here (late NEXT WEEK!!!)......

Also - don't you LOVE the pics of allllll the product!!  YES, there are a NICE assortment of NEW thickers coming out too - no worries got it aLlllllLLL coming too! (and some of them are a SMALLER font, so that's nice!)

AND........here's the new FUN, SUMMER line that we'll be getting too "Heat Wave"...it's REFRESHING and FUN as well!!  AND, Renee's BIGGEST thrill of the day....LOOK at the back of these papers........coordinating SOLIDS on ONE side and this ADORABLE coordinating strip on the bottom!!  These are SO FUN!!

One of Elizabeth's "original" layouts!!  mmmmm Love it!!  (oh we also ordered the NEW albums - mmmm!)

We've got some fun new ideas for the store coming up that we visited with Paul about - so i can't wait to share those with you as well!!!!

can't BELIEVE i almost left this PRIZE of a picture out of the BLOG library of photos!!  ENJOY!! 

Some FUN for YoU!!!!!

How much do you LOVE this picture of Dianewith the tutu she was working on last week when we all got together to crop at Kathy's?  (she is going to LOVE me for posting this ;)  I SERIOUSLY don't think she will mind she has a great sense of humor as do all of the girls we cropped/crafted with that night.  I almost didn't go because by Friday I am EXHAUSTED with all of my responsibilities of the week but I DID go and I was sooo glad.  Those girls are a blast to be around and just kept me laughing the whole time (which is what I LIKE!!) 

Kathy, Alicia, and I were all working on Chicks in the Attic Kit layouts (all different months) so I thought it would be cool to post pics of OUR versions using the kit club.

And here are some layouts I did at Ganza

using the November CITA kit 

(that's Chicks in the Attic....just sayin!) 

CITA is my first Kit club (member) experience and so far I couldn't be HAPPIER!!!!  I always have fun projects to work on with the trendiest papers and embellishments at my house ready for me when I want do a layout or two.  And one other thing I LOVE about the CITA kit is that I can make multiple (I was able to get NINE different layouts from the Novemember kit!!) layouts for my four girls and our family album and each page is individual for that person.  No longer am I MASS producing x3, x4 or x5 and that feels so good.  I do seperate albums for each of my FOUR daughters and one for Heath and I.  i know that might sound crazy to you (or not!!) but that is how I do it!!!  If you aren't a CITA club member try it out for a month.  you will LOVE IT, promise!!!  The Attic team does a great job of choosing a variety of the latest scrapbooking supplies including COLOR step by step layouts that you can follow exactly or make your own (I am somewhere in the middle of the two!!)  The kits are especially great if you live out of state or can't get to the store as often as you would like.  It's like a little piece of Attic heaven delivered right to your door once a month.  AHHHHHH!!! 

...and a few other of my own (non-CITA) layouts I did at Ganza for the baby's album.

and one for me!!!!

besosbesos, dc

Crop*A*Ganza Registration Form - September 2010!

WOOO HOOOO!!  Look at me!!  I've got the Crop*A*Ganza registration form UP AND READY for you and it's NOT EVEN March 1st yet!!  :)  YEAH ME!! .... i had this ALLLL ready to go last night and FORGOT TO HIT PUBLISH - i'm tellin' ya - it's a GoOd thing that DC is in charge around these parts, there's no tellin' WHAT might be happenin!!

HOWEVER i have to have it converted to a PDF file for you to upload and print!!  Soooo, im waiting on that to happen through our website peeps and then it'll be ready! so by the end of the day for sure!!!  BUT - wanted to share this with you while you wait!!...

....there are a couple of changes happenin'!!  (you know how we LOOOOVE change!)....first the STAGE.....ugghhH!!  I love/hate the stage!!  Those of you that have requested and sat or requested and NOT sat on the stage understand what i'm talkin' about!!!  The stage is a HIGHLY coveted piece of real estate at the good ol' Best Western in Park City!!  There are only a limited amount of seats up there, and each ganza, the demand for the stage seems to grow and grow at each event.  This last time was the HIGHEST yet - and I have a REALLLLY hard time deciding who DOES and who DOESN'T "get" the stage.  It's SO hard pleasing EVERYONE!!  Soooo, we talked to some of you - got some great ideas, and put our brains together and decided to try something new for a change!!........

this time on your registration form, please pay attention to the CHOICES of crop seats!!....If you would like to sit on the STAGE, the registration fee will be $10.00 more.  $100.00  Like I said earlier - there are a limited number of seats, so please know that this will be on a first come first serve basis!!!  Hopefully this will help everyone that wants the stage for CERTAIN, know that they are or are not sitting there before they arrive!! :)

Okay - second CHANGE!!  We canNOT get ENOUGH of you!!!!  So - we are going to open up EARLIER!!  Croppin' PARTAY Ganza, will start at NINE AM on FRIDAY!!  (you can thank good ol' DC for this one!!)   Soooooo, for those of you that take off the entire day on friday - you don't have to wait around till nooon o'clock to get your "crop on"!!  Come on up at NINE AM!! :)  yeahhhooooo!!!

Okay - that's it for now  -  i'll be back with the PDF (as well as an email to you!)  Have a FANTASTIC March 1st DAY!!
