A JOYous friend gave this really cute paper clip project, thought you all might want to make it. Come by today to make one. It's super easy as 1-2-3. If you make a few then you got a really nice gift - for Admin Day next month or even Mother's day.Would think this might be good for those soon to be graduates that will be off to college (for their textbooks.)

R U ready to "hunt" for Eggs?
Can't believe it we're celebrating our 2nd Annual Easter Egg "hunt." No you don't have to hunt for eggs around the store... though that has been a thought. It's easier than that.
1) gather (egg hunting) the items that you'd like to purchase.
2) make your purchase (counting your eggs).
3) pick and egg for your discount for the day. (range is from 5% to 20% off for entire purchase)
Did we say entire purchase...YES! that's correct! Shucks, darn, we won't be giving out stamps though if you are participating in this event, not combinable.
Limited to one egg per person per day, and there is a limited number of eggs per day. (Don't forget to let us know, do you prefer Egg Salad, Deviled Eggs, or Pickled Eggs before you leave.)

St. Patty's Day
Are you going to be eating corn beef 'n cabbage today sometime? Of course you are, you're Irish!
Come by and make a green lei to wear to the downtown festivies tonight. If you have time you can always make a beautiful beaded project, using some of the new glass beads that we have.

Kona, so beautiful...
As some of you know, I was on the Big Island last week. It was so beautiful. Got lots of inspiration - went to the Kona Ace Hardware - I was so excited. They have a section that has scrapbooking and crafts - similar to things we carry, more seasonal thing though, and they have a floral section.
Sunsets at the beach, as the saying goes "lucky you live Hawaii."
This picture made me think of a project that I didn't finish (oops...did I say that, but it's always that next project that keeps us, a true lifetime crafter).

New Items! Martha Stewart & K& Company
We finally got 'em in...the Martha Stewart scoring board and some deep edge punches too. I like the tinsel glitter. I'm so excited to try out the adhesive tab and roll. Looks like there is too much too do.
We got in K& Company too....if you like lime green and purple/lilac...then you might want to come check it out.

Christy's Last Day
We're sad to say that Christy will be moving on to greater things as of today. She did a farewell lei class today during lunch. Josh is still around and preparing for St. Patty's Day projects next week. So we look forward to seeing that.

Scrapper's Jam & a Tsunami !?!
Hey all, Tsunami warning - did anyone get any cool pictures?
We were at the Scrapper's Jam with all the Tsunami Scrapbookers! We had lots of fun, hearing the updates on from the radio as well as the phone calls from those that didn't make it.
Check out the make 'n takes that we did at the Jam.
Cute, yeah!
(Some of you might have noticed the cards, thanks for being part of our CitC R&D team in preparation for the Jam.)
