October Newsletter
Wow is it really October? October is my favorite month. I got married in October, we go on vacation in October, HALLOWEEN is in October... the leaves are changing, the pumpkins are everywhere (including Starbucks!!!) and it's just a happy time. By now the kids are back in full swing with their school routines and we are getting into gear for the upcoming holidays.
We would like to thank you all for your amazing support with the Scrap Pink Event last weekend! We had almost 30 croppers on Saturday and a small crew on Sunday who were scrapping their hearts out. Our Saturday crew scrapped over 150 pages! WOW!! We had so much fun and enjoyed seeing so many creative minds at work. Best of all we raised $350 for the Susan G Komen Foundation.
Many thanks to the businesses who sponsored prizes for the crop: Dansk (St Jacobs), Chocolates N' More (St Jacobs), Pimms (St Jacobs), Taste (St Jacobs) and Ann Manias, RMT (Waterloo). Your generous gifts are greatly appreciated!
We of course took LOTS of pictures of our scrapping Pirate Princesses!

If you see yourself (or someone you know) in any of these descriptions, you need to join us at Scrapping Turtle to CRASH YOUR STASH!
On the fourth Monday of every month from 7-9pm, we invite you to bring your basic supplies and some supplies from your stash [we will give you a list each month of what you need to bring – you just need to pull it all together.] We will provide the directions and techniques to get your creative juices flowing! It will be great to see what everyone creates with the same directions but different supplies, and best of all, it's from YOUR STASH!
