I just have to do it. I have to run a sale and spoil you a little
bit during Mischief Week. And so - even though we just barely had a
sale and I knew Valerie might get annoyed with me - I decided to ignore
her advice... Because it is Mischief Week and I have to do some mischief.
I decided that not only would I run a sale, I would run the biggest
sale we have had so far this year. (Neener, neener, neeeeeener...!
Put that in your hat and run around the block with it, Valerie!)
So hop right on it. I don't know when they are going to let me get away
with this kind of sale again. Almost everything
in the Scrap Girls Boutique is 21.9% off! But you know how it
goes, I do have to turn it off soon, so here’s your warning: It
will be over at Midnight, MDT, April 30th.

Mischief Week Continues...
New for Today...
Boutique Bingo
It's time for
Boutique Bingo!
Yippee!!! And Zaz gets to be your hostess! Woo hoo! (Let the dancing begin...)
So,
do you think you’d like to play? Pick
30 products
from the
What’s New Section in the boutique and send your list in
an email to me at [email protected].
It’s
probably best to copy and paste the product name so you have it exactly
as it appears in the boutique. Please make the subject of your email "BINGO
Card" and include your Scrap Girls forum user name (for example:
BINGO CARD Zaz).
Any emails received after Midnight (EST) on April 25th
will be counted toward the next round of Bingo. We can’t
be held responsible for misdirected emails. Zaz will
send a response to you that she got your card. You do not have to register
for each round of Bingo once you are playing. Your card is good through
all the rounds. Today, Zaz will start calling words throughout
the day.
How do you get a Bingo? You have a Bingo when Zaz has
called 20 of your 30 products. If the Bingo is valid (which
she will verify using the emails that you've sent her), we'll clear
the cards and start over. Words will be called in the corresponding
thread in the Mischief Week Forum (Scrap Girls Message Board> Fun
and Games> Events> Mischief Week 2008).
Want to
know what you're playing for? Each winner will receive a $5.00 Gift
Certificate to the Scrap Girls Boutique! Have fun! Remember, you may
only win ONCE. We want everyone to have a chance to win! So pick your
product list and send Zaz that email! The game ends on April 30th!

Customer Muse: Make a
Difference
My husband and I have just finished watching “Noel Edmunds Christmas
Presents,” featuring various people who need something special.
Well, technically, they don’t need anything, but someone had
nominated various people and requested that they be given a “special
present” for Christmas.
The people who received the wishes are extremely
special in many ways and for lots of different reasons. One thing that
they all have in common is that they don’t think about themselves
first. Jimmy and I both knew that the program would probably have both
of us in tears – and we were right.
For about an hour and a half,
the tears flowed and our noses ran, but they were happy tears. As the
stories behind the people who received the Christmas presents unfolded,
you knew that each and every person deserved their particular wish.
We
both agreed that we would love to be able to give a special present.
However, thinking about it more after watching the program, I realized
that in our own way, we had given presents – just not in the
big way shown in the program (trips to Disneyland, etc.) but in a
smaller, more personal way.
Jimmy and I look after three owls and they
help us raise money for a local charity. During our fundraising, we
meet a lot of people and, with the owls, are able to touch their lives
in a magical way. As I am writing, I start remembering some of the
people we have met over the years. There have been hundreds (probably
thousands), but I am only going to tell you about two.
We met a little
girl of about three or four years old who had terminal cancer and
loved owls. We decided we wanted to make the meeting special for her
and arranged for her to have her photo taken with Merlin, a Tawny Owl.
Her parents put the photo in a frame and, at the little girl’s
request, it was always to be found on her bedside table. After she
had died, we were told by her mom that the photo was always on her
bedside table (even when she was in hospital) and when anyone commented
about the photo, the little girl’s face would light
up and she would tell them about the day she met Merlin.
I also remembered
a blind man who we were talking to with his partner. We allowed the
man to stroke several of the birds we had with us, and his face lit
up like a ball of light. We also allowed him to hold three of our owls
(of different sizes) so that he could run his hands over them and “see” the
difference in their sizes and shapes. This caused his face to light
up even more and a smile reaching from ear to ear appeared on his face.
When we looked at his partner, she was smiling too and had tears running
down her face.
Yes, it would be nice if we could arrange for a big expensive
present for someone, but anyone can do that, it just takes money. What
we are able to do with the birds is on a smaller and more personal
scale – and
in some cases, it can mean just as much or more than an expensive present.
Just
like there will be people who say, “Do you remember when
we went to Disney?” when something big happens, there will also
be those people who say “Do you remember when I touched the owl?”
We
can all make a difference. It does not have to be a big expensive present
and something small is just as good. A gift does not even have to be
something that can be bought; it can even be something which is free.
In
some cases, all that someone might need is a hug, a prayer or a kind
word. So, go on and make a difference to someone today.

Dear Scrap Girls Team,
After reading all of the great comments
in your newsletter today, I wanted to let you know that I am
so delighted with your efforts.
Each day, I look forward to
reading your newsletter. It carries so much inspiration and
I get so many ideas that I want to put into action. I
love the muse section; it makes it just a bit more personal. I
LOVE it! If you did not
go to all of the trouble to present the layouts and the products
that go into making them, some of us wouldn't have a clue on
how to put all of the products together and what is currently
in your store. When it is presented to you in the
newsletter and shows how the product can be used, it is so
much different than just looking through a store and wondering
how to use the item. My mind lights up and goes, “OH,
oh okay, I could do that, too. Good idea.”
I also love
how the products relate to each other, such as the collection,
the paper templates, the brushes, etc. I
go into the OOOOHHH factor again, because I love having
more choices and add-ons for kits that I love.
I did join
both monthly clubs, just because it seemed like the thing to
do. But, after two months, I am completely captured and anxiously
await the day when I get to see what engaging theme will be
captured in the new kit. Then, during the
month, I've noticed that some of the freebies coordinate with
this kit and it's like opening another new present. Along
with that are the samples that appear in the newsletter using
the kit to inspire me. Oh, only for more time to sit down
and create.
Now, I have to organize, organize, organize my entire
inventory into a usable form. But, even without doing that,
there are plenty of elements and details in each kit to give
many choices. I also love having the coordinating alphabet
included within the kit.
I only came across your site about
four months ago, but it has grown to be my absolute, number
one favorite because of the efforts you take to present your
products, show us how to use them and help us along the way. I
don't mean this lightly, as I had participated in a treasure
hunt recently with a group of scrapbook sites and, as I was
collecting clues and going from site to site picking up the
freebies, I did not see a single site that had the depth that
yours does. Sure,
I will go back to some and pick up a kit or two. But, they
will never be the site that I consider “home.” You
have captured my heart with your knowledge, presentation skills,
wonderful sales, devotion to the site and the customers.
Thank
you for being the site that I love! God has blessed
you with a wonderful talent and team. Keep up the good work!

It's time for you to stop playing
catch-up in Photoshop and start having a blast doing the more
advanced tricks that you see other people and professional
digital scrapbookers doing.
- Take the world's easiest shortcuts to
creating your own backgrounds, embellishments, and alphas.
- Make sure that you don't make the biggest
mistakes that digital scrapbookers make when they create
layouts.
- Learn fantastic tricks for using Scrap
Girls ScrapSimple products.
- Dip your digital scrapbooking self into
some of those "other" cool tools that are sitting there
waiting in your software for you to use such as paths,
masks, the drawing pen, and more.
- See how easy it is to install and manage
new Custom Shapes and Styles in Photoshop so that you
can make things that are creative and unique.
- Learn advanced tricks for using tools
that you already know and love.
- Watch me make some beautiful papers and
get a chance to peek inside of my layers. (Oh dear...
That is the last frontier and I might be out of my mind
to let you do it... NOBODY likes people to see inside
of their layers. It is like having visitors peek inside
of your dresser drawers. Very private stuff.)
- See a new way for coloring doodles. (I'm
betting that it will surprise you what tool I've used
to do that with, too...)
- Get "IN" on creating your own brush sets.
(You do NOT have to have those impossibly long brush sets
frustrating you anymore. In fact, when you learn this
trick, you will wonder why you haven't been using it all
along.)
- Find out why Custom Shapes are so important
to you. (Bet you didn't know...)
- Learn how to cut out a title from a background
or a photo.
- And even more...
Note: These are NOT beginning
tutorials. If you get this training and you have never used
Photoshop before or if you aren't pretty sure of yourself
in the software, you are going to be lost. You simply have
to understand layers, where things are located, and all of
the basic, important skills that Ro teaches in her Scrapbook
Software Secrets Revealed series before you try
to use it. |
