Ready To Roll

Next week it begins … The Northwest Paper Chase.  I am prepared and can hardly wait to get on the road.

Last Sunday I put on a Scor-Pal Demo at Stampin’ in the Rain and they sold 7 units and a bunch of Scor-Pads too.  Once you sit down and have it shown to you, it is easy to see why they are so popular.

I also sold one at a class I held at Ben Franklins in Redmond, WA.

I made a set of 54 Looney tunes ATC’s to hand out during the Paper Chase

and also a desk caddy for Kathryn at Art & Soul in Lacey, WA because she sent me last years Paper Chase pin after I had lost my Scrapping Hat.  I had a new one made for this year.

I hope to see a lot of my fellow scrappers on the Chase, both club members and forum members.  There will be a Fiskateer contingent on the Chase also and I look forward to meeting up with them too.

This from my friend Lee at Lasting Memories in Lynnwood, WA.
