Scrappin' Good Times Blog

It’s time for a free make-n-take. Drop by the store between 11:30am and 1:00pm to make the card pictured above (hover or click on the thumbnail for an enlarged view). The project takes about 5 to 10 minutes – come during your lunch and see what’s new at the store too!

If you have not yet stopped by Scrappin’ Good Times on the Shop Hop trail to get your passport stamped, don’t worry! Our hours have been extended (see the post below for details).

As a result you’ll be able to shop while there are several classes going on right in the store each evening and on the weekend. You have the special opportunity to see our classes and some of our instructors in action first-hand! Some of the classes still have spots or kits available So if you stop in and see a class going on, ask if there are extra kits. Better yet, ask if you can still join the class! Take advantage of these classes while you’re out and about this week:

Mary Mary quite contrary. How does your QuicKutz collection grow? If you’ve been taking our QKA classes, then it’s growing pretty well. That’s because each student receives their very own QuicKutz shape at every class. This time, the shape will be the oh-so-cute seed packet. Perfect for our gardening themed class. Sign up at the 8/10 class kickoff for this class where you’ll make a lovely 2-page layout AND an accordion chipboard book. Both showcasing the wonderful hobby of gardening. We’ll be using the Maya Road accordion book and two stunning lines of paper from K & Co. QuicKutz tool is NOT required to take this class.

Get ready to go “Back 2 Skool”! We will be learning fun altering techniques to decorate a binder, personalize a folder, make an ID tag for your backpack, and more. We’ll be using Sharpie paint pens, diecuts, ink, acetate, felt, chipboard, and other fun materials and textures to “rock” out your school year! Anyone is welcome to attend; elementary school up to adult.

Also, Scrappin’ Good Times is hosting TWO crops that Shop Hoppers can take advantage of. Shop with your Shop Hop discount and and then get your scrap on with your new supplies! The crops are this Friday night and all day Saturday–call (909)305-0748 to reserve your spot today. You can also call SGT to sign up for any of our classes right over the phone.

Another tip: SGT is situated off the Arrow Highway exit off the 57 freeway. This is a great place to fuel up–for yourself and your car! There are a great variety of fast food places (A&W, KFC, Taco Bell, Del Taco, Carl’s Jr, The Yogurt Station, McDonald’s, Starbuck’s, El Pollo Loco, etc) and sit down restaurants (Michaelangelo’s Pizza, Red Robin, Cask N Cleaver, Applebee’s, Denny’s, Zendejas, etc) as well as several gas stations (Mobil, Shell, etc…) and a Target across the freeway. Make them your lunch or dinner time stop so you only have to pull off the freeway one time to take care of all your needs.
