Scrap Pink and Back to School

Time is flying by, the third week of September is here already. The Albert Lea School papers are in again, along with Alden-Conger, Glenville-Emmons and Lake Mills. We also have new sports papers including volleyball and hockey and will soon have new football and soccer. We are getting the sports die cuts done for the various schools. If there is a sport or event you would like to have just let us know and we will design one for you.

This week is SCRAP PINK!
Scrapbooks etc. is partnering with Susan G. Komen for the Cure® to hold the 3rd Annual "Scrap Pink" fundraising campaign in September 2009 at independent retail stores across North America.
The campaign will culminate in an exciting on-site crop hosted by each participating shop the weekend of September 25-26, 2009. Scrapbookers are invited to enjoy a fun-filled event at their local scrapbook shop! Scrapbookers all across the nation will come together to make a difference in the fight against breast cancer.
Ten dollars of your crop fee will support Komen for the Cure's promise to save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all, and energizing science to find the cures.
The cost for the 2 day event will be $25, or $18 for one day, with $10 going to the Susan G. Komen fund. We will have supper on Friday night (5PM to 11PM ) and lunch on Saturday (9AM to 5:30PM). We will have surprises during the 2 day event. There is a limit of 12 per session. If you want to sign up call or stop by.
We will also have pink paper and embellishments on sale.

We have had Minnesota and Iowa maps for a while. Some new dance paper is in for ballet and general dance, paint ball paper, Baptism paper in white, blue and pink.
