Blog Impaired....A Store is born

I am SO BLOG IMPAIRED....what's wrong with me?? I have tons to say... just no time to get over here and share it with you. And on the RARE occasion that I DO HAVE ONE SINGLE MOMENT - well that's about the only time I have nothing to say!!

So I hereby vow to be a better blogger!!

General Updates:

The new house is just as fabulous (my favorite word lately). I love everything about it. We have the most awesome neighbors, how cool is that?

My Scrapbook Studio is coming along nicely. If I had not decided to launch a webstore this month - I would probably have been done decorating by now.

Webstore - yep that is what I said. This really happened by accident. And how exactly does a webstore happen by accident? Wellllll, it went down like this. We just hosted our 3rd, and largest Scrapbook Vacation Club Event in Daytona Beach, which was the most amazing - more about that later. Anyway, we had a title sponsor, who due to unforeseen circumstances, had to back out. HOLY COW!! We were kinda in a lurch, having no title sponsor at 66 hour crop event. Yeah the chances of us making out of there alive were slim to none.

Soooo, we pooled our resources, rolled up our sleeves and built our own Scrapbook Oasis Vendor booth. It was a lot to take on, 'cause remember we were already hosting our largest event at a new venue, teaching classes and NOW adding this endeavor.

Well at the end of the event it all really worked out. Left exhausted and having scrapped nothing, we were satisfied with how all of the efforts paid off. HUGE thanks to all of staff and volunteers who really made it come together.

So, then we roll back into town. Gosh my Suburban was not quite as full as it was when we rolled out, but there was still a lot of merchandise to contend with. Not to mention we ordered tons so of stuff that did not arrive in time to take to the event. GASP!! Now WHAT???

Well, that is how the Scrapbook Oasis Store was born. The advantage of having an established website that already catered to our Scrapbook Vacation Club clients, obviously is a huge advantage, so we have worked hard to enter that masses of inventory on hand - that may take forever.

But hey we have a pretty good start here so please check it out!!! www.Scrapbook-Oasis.com

Woohoo!
