We hope everyone had a nice 4th. Laura and myself went on a vacation to the Smokey Mountains in North Carolina. This was our first vacation is soooo long. It was nice. Jordan got his first pony ride, although it was more like a horse. If the pony comes up to my neck, is it still considered a pony? He was so good for the car ride up and back, even though he barely slept at all. In fact, when we left at 5AM, we figured he would be sound asleep.. Nope! He had such a HUGE grin on his little face. He knew we were going away and he was so excited. He loved looking at all the different kinds of trucks on the highway. OK, now I will make you a little jealous. The average daily temps were around 75 and the nights were a cool 55. As much as we love Florida, it was hard to leave such a beautiful area.
We got back to discover that one of our wonderful Paradise gals, Sharon, had fallen very ill while we were gone. We were so upset and worried, but were glad to find out she is doing somewhat better now. Sweet Sharon wanted to make sure that we did not know about this-because she knew we would drive right back to Florida-and she wanted to make sure that we had a nice vacation. So our amazing gals figured everything out and took care of the store while we were gone. We are very thankful to have such incredible ladies working here. To Miranda, Rachel, and Lynnette, thanks very much for filling in and caring so much. And to our Sharon, we are so glad you are feeling a little better now, and you are right, I would have instantly cut our vacation short and come back home. So, thank you for your kindness and consideration to us. I understand why you didn't want us to know... You're a tough lady!
Because Sharon, who teaches some fabulous classes here, has fallen so ill, we've had to rearrange the our schedule a bit. Also, our American Arts show for Saturday is going to have to be rescheduled for later in the month. More to come on that. Not only will we be missing Sharon, another of our guests is not able to make it to the American Arts show either, so we felt that we might as well do it later in the month. We will post more on the blog later. You will not want to miss out on it.
We will reschedule 3 Quick cards to a later date. And, the Christmas Ornament class on July 14th has been rescheduled to July 28th.
Our samples are not all out yet either, but hey, hopefully you all know you can always trust Paradise to give you a great class. So, feel free to sign up now and we will have samples soon.
Thanks to all of you,
John

Check out this little cutie, the Glue glider Pro tape runner. I know, we think it's cool too!
We have some insanely cool Tim Holtz Alcohol ink refill pens. Oh yeah, we know you all can't wait to play with these babies.
Have some kid themed scrapbook pages or cards you need to make? Our Lego papers from Creative imaginations might be just the right fit. Hee Hee...Legos..."just the right fit." I crack myself up sometimes. :-)
Little Yellow bicycle has sent us some travel themed paper and embellishments, and being that summer is often travelin' time, 'tis the season to check these out!
I'm positive that there are more things that have arrived, but with new stuff coming in all the time, it's just too hard to keep up with all of it! Ahhhh, a delightful "problem" to have... Too much yummy new product all the time, such torture!! :-)
We have the newest Quickutz monthly release here in stock. See it all HERE
You better hurry though, it is selling out very fast.
Congratulations to Mary Lou, last night's QK club meeting winner.
For those of you taking our Day by Day series, you know how much fun it is. If you are not taking the class then check it out, it is loads of fun. People have been asking if it is too late to start. The short answer is no. You can join us at any time.
Well, we have a special treat this month. We will be hooking you up you with the supplies to make Lynnette's awesome album cover design for FREE. If you took adavantage of our sweet discount when we first started this class then you already have the album. Everything you need to create Lynnette's cover is included in your regular June class fee. OK, if you cannot make it to the June class, we can offer this to you in July's class too. Sorry, but we cannot make kits for you to take, you have to physically be at the class. You have seen it on display and it looks great. Come to class and make it FREE. What a treat indeed...
