Scrap Your Trip Adds 147 Items

Entry Filed under: New Items Added

Last week I turned one of Lauren’s (my 8-year old daughter) drawings into a scrapbook paper ("Owl by Lauren S.").   When I showed her on the website that night after work, she was so excited I thought she was going to burst!  Thank you to the three people who bought a sheet. :-)   Immediately, my 5-year old son Logan said "I want to draw scrapbook paper too!"  He went right to work with his crayons.  So, this week, I give you ("Darth Vader by Logan S." ) (that’s the dead good guy laying on the ground next to him).  If any of you have more than one child or grandchild, you are well aware of the rule that says what you do for one you must do for the other or hear about it forever.
 
What’s been so cute about this is that every day when I get home, Logan asks me if his paper sold.  I explained to him that we only put new stuff on the website on Wednesday and it wasn’t Wednesday yet.  Every morning for the last week he has asked me what day it is.  It took me a day or so to realize why he was asking.  Then he started asking "Is it Wednesday yet?"  Last night, I showed him his paper on the website.  I videotaped him with my Flip Video Camcorder that I told you about earlier in the year.  It’s really shaky, so forgive my videographer skills :-) I definitely won a "Mommy of the Year" award for this!
 
Besides Logan’s artistic interpretation of Darth Vader, we have another 146 products for you to choose from this week.  We have a beautiful heritage collection from SEI called the Windsor Collection.  We also have the Lego City Construction collection from Creative Imaginations.  We have lots of holiday, including stickers from EK Success and Mazel Tov and Hanukkah paper.
 
We also have a large selection of Scrap Your Trip exclusive designs.  We have lots of Christmas-y papers, along with general travel, Japan, Cruise and Disney.  We even have papers for rock climbing and darts!  We have four holiday die cut borders…toy soldier, toy train, gingerbread boy and girl.  We even have a customized Santa hat!  We can customize with your name or your pet’s.  Click here to see everything:  http://www.scrapyourtrip.com/121008.html.
 
We are also having a Scrap Your Trip paper sale on our previously released designs.  For one week only, our papers are 25% off.  Click here to see all the designs on sale: http://www.scrapyourtrip.com/syt-paper-sale.html.
 
Hope you are enjoying the holidays.  Lauren and I are going to our annual mother-daughter Nutcracker Ballet this weekend.  We’ve been going since she was 2 years old.  She’s still at the age when she’s excited about going to the ballet with Mommy. :-)
 
As always, thanks for your business!

    Julie, I enjoy so much reading about your family and kids every week in you e-mail. I was really excited for Logan watching his reaction to his paper being put on the website.

    OMG, Julie!! Logan’s excitement was sooooo heartwarming to watch!!! Kids have that absolute innocent built-in excitement for things they accomplish. Lauren and Logan are so blessed to have a mom who takes such delight and pride in their accomplishments! I love it!!
    Also, again, thank you all for the wonderful Election 2008 paper and die cuts you put out. They totally enhanced my documentation of this election. You guys come through every single time!!! Amazing!

    As a 5 X Cancer Survivor I love Scrap booking!! It’s something that I can do without needing others help. These are my memories that only I can tell and share. When I’m gone, some of my memories will die with me and no one will ever no them. It’s important to me that my children know that I love them and to leave them treasures that they can read and treasure. Thank you Debbie for sharing my goal to make our children feel loved. This site Rocks! Robin

    Your “Mother of the Year” description of yourself reminded me of this: My 14 yr old granddaughter fell while running a cross country race for her varsity team. She finished the race with a badly cut land bleeding leg. As people began to assist Chloe, her mother (my daughter) was observed taking photos of the knee etc, for Chloe’s scrapbook. even before getting the wound cleaned and getting her to the emergency room for several stitches.
    My daughter’s friend was also taking photos of my daughter taking photos. This friend snapped a series of photos, added captions and sent them via email to my daughter and the circle of friends these two women share, with this title: “Jennifer ________ nominated for Richland County Mother of the Year Award”
    It was hilarious and it all became a two page spread in Chloe’s series of scrapbooks. You can see that much detail goes into all my scrapbooks and yours is the one site that i can ALWAYS find unique supplies. i found you shortly after you started your busines and am probably one of your most vociferous supporters. keep the good works coming……
