Whew!

What a busy weekend!!! Scrappers and crops and stampers and cropping! But I think everyone had fun, got some cool new ideas and fun new goodies to work with. We've gotten some new 7 GYPSIES fun things in for your altered art enjoyment. And the newsletter is published! Your very own copy should be coming in the mail, otherwise check out our website at www.stampstruck.com and call to sign up for the class fun coming your way. An F.Y.I., it's Miss Gloria's birthday July 5th. Yes, the queen, royale will be celebrating another year of wisdom, smile wrinkles and daily blessings. If you'd like to drop her a card, we'll have a basket up front for her and then when she returns from her birthday "romp" with her brother, mother and husband, up the coast, we'll shower her with paper wishes. Everyone have a great week, do a little bit of art. Whether it's just grabbing a minute to stamp your checks while paying bills or throwing together a card for a friend or getting to a full page scrapbook spread...enjoy the process, relish the creativity, feed upon the journey!

Classes, classes, classes...

Someone has inquired about Sue's classes. As the ink is still wet on her "class idea" sheets, I can't quite divulge specifics yet except to say, "have you ever heard of a 'grunge paper' quilt" or" how do you feel about sharing your artwork with other artists, actually creating for them as they create for you?" And she's also bringing back some favorites with alcohol inks, sheer heaven and acrylic transfers. We're looking at some Tuesday night classes too, so clear your Tuesdays and get ready to have fun! We've also noticed an influx of out of towners swooping in to grab up the new goodies that are filling our shelves. Don't forget to stop in and see what's new before it's out and thanks to all of you for your support!

And another thing! We have a new addition to the royal court...A COLOR COPIER! You now have the option of copying your masterpieces in color. 12 x 12 copy is $1.75, 8 1/2 x 11 copy is 75c

Get your summer ART on!!!

Look what you can make in an evening! Or gather the kids around and whip out some fun cards to send this summer...snail mail, the old-fashioned way, it gets them off the computer! With this kit by BASIC GREY make 8 cards...BUT you'd better hurry, we only have 4 kits left! The Kit comes complete with envelopes, rub-ons, papers and embellishments! Stampede on down to SCRAPBOOK KING 'n' STAMPSTRUCK and get yours NOW!!!

In the Process

We're punching out the JULY/AUGUST newsletter as I write! Sue has some innovative, progressive night classes formulating, Marilyn is ready to introduce you all to the great big new world of "GRIDDIES", Diane just brought in two beautiful bird cards deftly colored with GLIMMER MIST and there's more to come! Have you ever wondered what the world would be like in just black and white...not morally speaking but if the entire world were either the absence of color (white) or the addition of all colors at once (black)? Colorful thoughts to you, full of variations, textures and shades!

Here we are!

Salutations! We return after a short hiatus with glorious news! Come in and see the new travel papers and embellishments, funky artsy stamps and pick the brains of our overzealous staff for ideas about everything from which ink to use to which adhesive smells best...or works best...or smells worse, whichever. We aim to have fun and take you along with us! Come in and visit! Happy "arting!"
