I would love help with our blog if anyone knows how to change the borders and backgrounds - please email or call me and remind me how I did it before!  We really wanted a different look over the Christmas holidays and I spent two hours trying to figure out how I did it last time.  I just do not have that kind of time to look at it again, so if someone could possibly remind me how I did it that would be fantastic!!!!!  I would be excited if I was able to give it a completely different look each month and I remember it was quick and easy to do - I just can not remember how I did it.

Drum Roll Please...........The winner of this month's $20.00 in-store gift certificate is

One of the fantastic things of being in the Scrapbooking Industry for so many years is that suppliers are constantly emailing and phoning about the newest and greatest they are offering. Every morning I come down to my office and wow, emails after emails. If there are certain lines and products that people are excited about please let me know as the incredible amount of new things that are coming out is amazing. How the industry can continually come out with new, new, new is incredible. Check back as we continually unveil all the exciting new products that are arriving at Yesterday's Memories!

PSST.... I have heard that Little Yellow Bicycle's latest line should be arriving tomorrow!!!!

A SCRAPBOOKING CONVENTION TO REMEMBER!!!

Hi All! My name is Beth Kostur and I am a Yesterday's Memories staff member as well as an avid supporter of the Arthritis Society. I have been raising money towards the cause for almost two years and this fall I have decided to take on my biggest challenge yet! I am going to be climbing to base camp of Mount Everest! But first I need to raise a lot of money! That is where you come in...
I am hosting a Scrap day at YM on March 13 from 11 a.m. to Midnight! It is only $40 for the whole day and includes a meal, snacks, loot bag and a whole day of SCRAPPIN FUN!!!! There are only 48 spaces available... so book quick!!!!

Also because 100% of the proceeds raised are going towards this great cause, I ask that at least 1 week cancellation notice be given so that we have time to fill your spot. Without the 1 week notice your registration fee can't be returned.

So Come and Have a Fantastic Time While Supporting a Great Cause! ! ! !

So many new and exciting things coming in 2010!

I have looked at the amount of times we have blogged in 2009 and that is definitely an area that needs improving. So here goes
I absolutely must blog at least three times between Sunday - Saturday each week. If I do not and you catch it - come in the following week and receive an additional 5% off your entire order! ! !
So another words the week of Sunday January 17th - Saturday January 23rd if I do not blog at least three times you come into the store and let us know you caught the error and you get an additional 5% off your purchases. This will continue every week starting Sunday January 17th until further notice!
