This year was no exception to the good times we had in St. George. Thanks to everyone who came and TOTAL credit for those who actually got stuff done. If you've thought of any suggestions or ideas for next year, let me know and we'll see if we can work it into the plan.

{Just a Hint}

SOME of you have done this Scrapfest thing before.

SOME of you are new, so let me give you some tips.

SOMETIMES, at Scrapfest, we like to play some games and have contests.

SOMETIMES that means we get to give extra prizes away.

SO, IF, you feel inclined you might want to consider bringing some specific photos with you to scrapbook. I'm not saying specifically what you HAVE to bring, or that you even have to consider it. However since I KNOW we all like extra prizes, maybe you'd want to bring some photos that are older than a couple years old *or* some really new ones (like of the snow and/or Christmas of 2008). Perhaps you're feeling a little nostalgic and are planning some black and white photos? Maybe a sports layout would be fun this year? And, oh, I dunno, maybe some of you want to bring pictures of your ancestors or of yourself. Cuz, really, this weekend should be all about you.

SOMETIMES it's worth it to scramble to grab a couple extra pictures for the weekend.

I'm just sayin'.

Pebbles is Hookin' Us Up!

Every year we have had Scrapfest, we have had huge support from Pebbles in My Pocket there in St. George. A HUGE thanks to Wendy Walker, who is the manager at that thar store , and who EVERY year goes above and beyond for all of us.

This year, in addition to fabulous giveaways Pebbles will be giving

25% off

EVERYTHING

in the store JUST for those of us who registered for Scrapfest. You MUST wear your nametag OR your super-dooper Scrapfest shirts (part of your welcome swag!) to get the discount . . . no exceptions on that part. All the other store shoppers on Friday and Saturday will have to pay full price on EVERYTHING, but not us. Cuz we're special, Scrapfesters.

AND, if you don't love that enough, Pebbles in My Pocket has agreed to extend their store hours on Friday night for all of us (I know, how nice, huh!) So,

Friday night we will be able to shop until

MIDNIGHT, aka 12am!

Saturday will be regular hours from 10am-7pm. Let the fun begin, my peeps.

SOOOO, basically I'm sayin' we're 4 days out and you should hopefully have a list of "needs" and a another one of "wants" and I'm hopin' you make time in your weekend to stock up at Pebbles and cross off all those wants and needs at Pebbles. Cuz they're pretty great for helpin' us out. Make sure you tell Wendy and the girls, "Thanks!"

I'll be posting again with some extra info, so check back :)
