Mesa Vista

Retreat is

a Success! Four nights and five days

over Martin Luther King

weekend is still not long

enough to be homesick

while scrapping and card

making. (A couple of us did

admit to missing our pets!)

We ate very well! Lasagna,

soup and salad, company

casserole, pulled chicken

sandwiches and coleslaw,

chicken/spaghetti

casserole, deluxe

sandwiches and salad, not to

mention breakfast buffets and casseroles! We are creative

cooks as well as creative crafters… if I do say so myself!

Mesa Vista Lodge has been reserved again for next year

and 7 of us have already paid our deposits. That means we

have room for three more. Please reserve your space with

a $125 deposit. The $125 balance is due in October 2017

for a total of $250 and one meal.

This retreat, I did something different. I worked on techniques, watching tutorials

on You Tube and reading instructions that came with new tools. It was quite the

experience. Here are the cards I made using stamps+. The embellishments are

not shown. --Noreen

Yea, Linda!

Absence diminishes small loves and increases great

ones, as the wind blows out the candle and blows up

the bonfire. Absence is to love what wind is to fire, it

extinguishes the small & kindles the great.

“This "all in one" award winning removal

removes all self sticking and pressure

sensitive stickers, tapes, labels and

adhesives on contact without leaving

behind any oily or greasy mess to clean up.

un-du® simply evaporates leaving behind

no messy clean up and you can re-use the

sticker, tape, or label again and again. Kids

stickers are everywhere and with un-du®

you can remove them and let them re-stick

them again and again. There is absolutely

on other product in the market place that

will do the job of removing those pesky self

sticking adhesives like un-du®!”

SNC sweatshirt order!

Blair’s “Customer Favorite Fleece

Jacket” is at a great price and I will

be ordering some and having the

Scrap-n-Country Logo

embroidered on them. Feel free to

let me know what color you want

or order it yourself.

Embroid Me in Pickerington has

the SNC logo pattern and will be

able to do them in bulk or one at a

time. The embroidery price is $ .

Glenda wants a blue (ultramarine)

one and I’m getting natural, sand,

and white – although, I like them

all. I expect to place the order

within the next two weeks (maybe

Feb 15). Vicki wants a pull over

sweatshirt and will be selecting it

on her own!

SNC appreciates the advertizing

and the logo can be put onto any

top -- tee, sweatshirt, cardigan,

blouse or jacket.

The mailed catalog and web site look a little different – this is the sweat

shirt/cardigan/jacket that I am planning to order. SNC will cover the shipping.

For sizing, the 3x are too big on me and the snaps can overlap several inches.

The 2x is good if I want to close it up and not have it be tight. The 1x is good if

I’m going to leave it hanging open like the picture. The large is too tight. Now

you know…for comparison purposes. Once embroidered, we can’t send them

back!
