Aloha All!

September sure was busy for Island Scrapbooking! The month started off with the semi-annual Fall/Spring Clearance Sale on September 12th. Customers walked away with some great deals that day, both at the Fall Clearance Sale and in the store. Thank you to all who helped to make this event a success. Be on the lookout for the next clearance event which will take place next spring.

At the end of the month, we welcomed guest Celebrity Instructor, Lynell Harlow of Dreamweaver Stencils. She taught 3 different classes (2 sessions each) including Faux Cloisonne, Gold Leafing and Crackle Pasting. She also introduced some new products and brought some awesome samples with her to share with the participants. What a great weekend of crafting and learning! A big Mahalo to Lynell for visiting us again. We look forward to her return to the Islands soon.

Our next exciting event will be our 6th Anniversary Celebration! Please stop by the store on Saturday, October 17th to help us celebrate! We have lots of fun planned for this special day including:

• Fun Make 'n Takes
• In Store Specials
• Prize Giveaways
