Calgary North Store has been Spring-Cleaning!

With the warmer weather just around the corner (and there are buds starting to show on the trees!) we at the North Store have been busy getting ready for the Spring rush! Come and see our totally reorganized Stamping Section – we have hundreds of gorgeous stamps on display as well as all the goodies that go with them: embossing powders, inks, paints, cleaners, sprays - there’s something for everyone here.

Also, don’t forget to visit our new “Dimensionals” aisle, where you can find a multitude of 3-D items to alter, from Maya Road’s delicious little chipboard albums to EK Success’s Art Blanche fabulous range of tins.

Classes at the North Store also continue to be popular, and there are still some spaces left for those keen to try out some new products and techniques. Come past the store and let our friendly staff members recommend the perfect class for you. Our teachers are already busy planning a whole new range of classes for the April, May and June months, so watch this space for more news on our “Spring Fling” Sign-Up Event on Saturday 15 March. All projects will be on display for viewing from Monday 3 March 2008.

Scrapbooking technology also continues to forge ahead: the new Cricut Design cartridges are in, and are too gorgeous for words. We also have a wonderful range of digital software and magazines for those more comfortable with a computer mouse than an adhesive tape runner, and for those who like to use both, “fusion scrapbooking” is becoming the name of the game! But whatever your level, whatever your field of interest, we at the North Store look forward to seeing you soon!

And in celebration of the end of Winter, Saturday 23 February is our “Beach Party” event! Running all day, there are special discounts, door prizes and goodies for everyone who attends. Gotta love that sun!
