You-Pick-It Promo extended!

Happy July, scrapbook friends! I’m coming to you this time from Utah, where we just celebrated my youngest daughter Michelle at her bridal shower!! The wedding is in October out here but because I was coming for a different family event they decided to have the shower now. It was lovely and she is going to be a beautiful bride!

We have new school products coming Monday, and the You-Pick-It Promo has been extended AND updated with two new options! I’d also like some feedback about a new class offering I’m considering. So read on! (And don’t forget the offer for my email subscribers who order on my website!)

Event Schedule

Bad news for anyone who was hoping to attend our Shark Week crop this coming weekend - it’s sold out with a wait list. But I did manage to adjust my schedule to have back-to-back crop weekends so maybe the following weekend will work instead?

Wednesday Day Crops: 10:00 am - 4:00 pm
Wednesday July 29 No frills, just time to work on your current projects. Bring your lunch or we’ll go in together on a DoorDash order. $10.
(August dates will be 5, 12, 19 & 26 and registration for that will open up next Sunday)

Weekend Crops: Friday noon - 9 pm and/or Saturday 10 am - 6 pm
July 24 & 25 SHARK WEEK THEME (SOLD OUT)
July 31 & August 1 (potluck crop)

Project Recipe Class: 6:00 - 8:00 pm
Tuesday, July 28 Come create two double page layouts using some of CM’s newest collections. I’ll provide the “ingredients” and the directions and we’ll build the layouts together. $20 basic or $35 deluxe (which includes 2 packs of stickers). This month we are doing Hydrangea Haven and Free Spirit.

Please sign up on the Google doc linked here:
July Cropping Events

For planning purposes my future crop dates are:
August 14 & 15 and 28 & 29
September 4 & 5 and 25 & 26
Croptoberfest! October 8-10 and October 15-17

By request I am showing the two Project Recipe layouts we’ll be doing on the 28th here:

You Pick It Promo - EXTENDED

So I think the You-Pick-It promo surprised CM and that they thought the Cup Caddy and Folding Mat would be the most popular. Which probably means they ordered more of those than they did of the other two. They originally told us there was not going to be any “backup” promo, but I guess they changed their minds, because as of Friday they’ve added two new options! (I can’t promise how long they will be available!) You can still choose from the Cup Caddy and folding fan or the 12x24 Folding Mat, but now you can also pick the Crop Crew Tote Bundle (includes tote + 4 Simple Page Kits from 2025 Secret Box #5), or the Tools Case & Crop Caddy Bundle (previously only available as an Advisor Join Gift).

School Years Collection

We are smack dab in the middle of summer but that’s a great time to make a plan for getting those school memories into albums! Our past couple of school collections have been full of bright colors, but this time we have a more subdued color palette which a couple of my friends are very excited about for their older kids’ books.

This collection offers both the Album Box kits plus the full complementing collection with two paper packs, stickers, mats, embellishments, a Pencil Chain BMC and (my favorite), a Classroom Icons Border Punch.

Simple Page Kit #8

They’re also releasing Simple Page Kit #8 a little early - usually we have to wait till the actual month but you can get a head start on August’s layout a little early this time! (If you’re in my Simple Page Kit club yours was delivered earlier this month and I’ll get with you about it once I get home!)

Ocean Treasures Use-the-Pack Class

Each quarter, Creative Memories releases an exclusive Advisor-Only paper pack and matching embellishments. This time I was asked to create the Project Guidebook for the Ocean Treasures and I have to say this is one of my favorite collections in a long time! I am wondering if there is any interest in my doing an in-person class where we create the layouts together - there are two double page and one single page, plus a bonus card.

I’m thinking of a Tuesday or Thursday evening and wondering who might be interested?? If you are please reply to this email and let me know.

How to Order

For more info about the promo (including video previews of the gift choices) and this week’s launch (remember the new launch time at 9 am CT!) check out the July 20th preview page.

If you are local and would like me to order for you please fill out my July 20th preorder form. Hopefully I will be back as scheduled on Wednesday and recovered in time to have everything ready for the crop on Friday/Saturday!

Whether or not you are local, as a special thank you to those of you who choose to shop with me as your Advisor, if you EMAIL ME I am happy to gift you a $10 CM credit to offset your shipping charges. I sadly can’t just give you free shipping, but the credit does not reduce the qualifying amount for the promo, it just takes $10 off your total. Just say “I am planning to order” and I will happily transfer the credit to your CM account.

(Please PLEASE do not request this via messenger or text. It makes it so much harder for me to transfer the credits that way and since I’m still out of town I need all the help I can get!)

I continue to get reports from other Advisor friends that people’s orders are not being credited to the proper person. So please, if you order online, verify that your order is being credited to my Advisor account. The easiest way to ensure that is to go directly through my website in the block below - and then to make sure it says “you are shopping with Nicole S” on the top of the page.

Thank you!

I hope you are all having a wonderful summer! I have enjoyed getting to spend time with my family in Utah but OH I will be glad to be home!

Happy Scrapbooking!
