We Want To Come Visit You!

We are hitting the road and we want to come see you! What does that mean? Here are some examples

1. Fly By- We just drop by and introduce ourselves and leave a free make and take for you and your friends.

2. Stay and Crop- We stay and crop. We bring a make and take, and another give and take. The give and take will be another make and take that you will make and LDSscrap will take and donate to charitable events in our community.

3. Custom Crop- Have a wedding coming up, baby blessing, or a missionary in the field? We will still bring a make and take but we will also set up a custom crop for you and your friends. We can make bridesmaids presents for the bride, or crank out 100 baby blessing announcements. We can do several kinds of missionary pages that will fit in one book.

4. Enrichment, Souper Saturdays, Young Women, Firesides- Let us know how we can help you in your current activities. We believe strongly in education. We love to share with others the importance of journaling, scrapbooking, and family history. We can customize Souper Saturday or Young Women activities and offer discounts for church sponsored events.

What is required of you? Let us know where your crop is, when, and how many people will be attending. No crop to big or small, and if you are out of the area we will do a crop in the box*. The only other thing you have to do is...

1. Fly By- Is still just a fly by, no other requirements.

2. Stay and Crop- We will bring our lap top so people can browse our on-line store during the crop. All orders placed at the crop will be dropped back or mailed to you. No shipping charges**. We will also have prizes and special promotions just for your crop.

3. Custom Crop- We will do everything from the stay and crop and also do a custom project. This requires a custom price and it will be based on the amount of people and the project you choose. You will have final approval of your project, or you can create your own with our materials. You will be required to cover the cost of the goods for your project.

4. Church Events- Let us know when your activity is, what it is and who you plan on attending. Let us know your goals for the activity and we will work it out all while trying to stay with in your (the ward) budget.

Let us come visit! To make reservations call 801-485-6867

Scrapbook USA

Scrapbook USA is this Friday and Saturday. We are so excited to see many of you! Due to the fact that we "pack up the store" and haul it out to Sandy for Scrapbook USA, shipping will be closed Wednesday at noon and will not open until Monday the 21st at noon. If you are placing orders after Scrapbook USA, please be aware that inventory will be off for about a week. Something that shows in stock on line may actually be out. We hope to have inventory adjusted by Friday the 26th. It does take 2-6 weeks to get items back in stock. If there is something you have had your eye on, now is the time.

Service

 

Please Help Us. You may have heard this story on the Today Show. We justt found out about it last Friday. Brother Christian Nielsen and Sister Stephanie Nielson were severely injured in a plane accident. They have four young children under the age of six. They are looking at months and months of treatment in a local Arizona hospital burn unit. One request from their families is to donate cards to cover their hospital rooms. LDSscrap has teamed up with Scrapbook USA to create cards during the show. If you do not attend the show we would also like you to help us out! We will post the mailing address soon. The link will send you to Stephanie's blog where you can find out more information, and see others ways to donate to their recovery. Stephanie has created quite the blog following because of her "upbeat attitude toward motherhood." Their family is, of course, also asking for our prayers.

Are you Red or Blue...how about Purple?

Because red and blue make purple. When my husband was Elder's quorumm president he would have a purple breakfast at the beginning of the football season. Everyone was invited and felt welcome. You would never guess that he would do something like that if you heard him in the football stands. He does not berate the other team. He just shows loyalty and support to his own. He has been a one color man all his life.

I have switched on the other hand from one team to the other. When I lived out of the state of Utah I was a rabid BYU fan (for a thirteen year old girl who knew nothing about football). I had a BYU sweatshirt that I wore every Tuesday. It kind of became a joke in the small school I was in . "Look it's Tuesday, Patty is wearing her BYU sweatshirt."

When I was on my mission I realized the importance of BYU for those who did not have the opportunity to grow up in a "Mormon state". So BYU was not on the top of my list for schools because I wanted others to have the chance to go. That led me to the U. I also have to admit I have been heavily influenced, by this one fan....he likes purple.

What color are you?

New Kit and Grandparents Day

We have a new kit that we will be debuting at Scrapbook USA. It is a mini family album with a genealogy twist. Our sample was made using the Dredge family history. That is my maternal line. It represents my Grandparents family. I say my Grandparents because they were the only ones I ever knew. Which brings us to Grandparents Day this Sunday. It is one of those obscure holidays not many of us celebrate. This year I am feeling like I should celebrate it. I have lost both of them in the last nine months, and now it seems so important to remember them! I encourage you this weekend to remember your Grandparents. If they are gone, make a scrapbook page of a fond memory. If they are here, make a scrapbook page about your love for them and share it.
