HOT OFF THE PRESS - 2015 SHOP HOP INFO!!I just returned from a meeting I had tonight in Tampa with all the area Stamp/Scrapbook stores. We discussed the details of the 2015 Main Street Shop Hop! I am SO EXCITED!! Here are some details (more will follow as they become available)! DATES: March 20th - March 29th (two weekends) Notice the date is about a month later than last year. Last year's earlier date interfered with other events being held in 2015 - so we decided to change our dates this year. HOURS OF THE SHOP HOP (same as last year): Friday, March 20th: 10AM - 8PM Saturday, March 21st: 10AM - 8PM Sunday, March 22nd: 12PM - 6PM Monday, March 23rd: Thursday, March 26th: 10AM - 6PM Friday, March 27th: 10AM - 8PM Saturday, March 28th: 10AM - 6PM Sunday, March 29th: 10AM - 5PM RESERVATIONS: Bags for the 2015 Main Street Shop Hop are $10. Come to The Stamper's Cove to reserve your bag NOW!! We only have 75 bags to sell - our customer base is much larger this year, so I expect the bags to go quickly! THEME: The overall theme this year is "The Main Street Shop Hop." The Stamper's Cove theme this year will be a Flower Shop! The other stores are in the process of selecting their store themes, so more info on all the themes will follow. Here's what we need to do next: - Start thinking about ideas for our 'tag' and our 2-Page layout! - We will need to set up a 'photo' area - ideas? - Volunteers: we will need many, many, many volunteers for The Stamper's Cove. Last year we had 157 customers THE FIRST DAY!! Clearly, I cannot do it myself. I will need your help! - We will begin making our tags/layouts in early January. I will send out an email with dates/times STORES INCLUDED IN THE 2015 MAIN STREET SHOP HOP: Required stores to visit: - The Stamper's Cove: Sarasota, FL - Scraps of Art: Seminole, FL - Scraporium: Lutz, FL - Violette's: Lakeland, FL - Scrapin Shack: Lakeland, FL - Creative Hands: Spring Hill, FL - Whimsodoodle: St. Petersburg, FL - Sparkle & Sprinkle: Ruskin, FL - (may be one additional store in Tampa) Bonus Store: She Scrapbooks - She Scrapbooks will be joining us this year as a Bonus Store.

However, if you do visit their store - they will have their own special drawing for you! I hear this store is really nice - great places to eat in the area - it's just a bit of a distance for us.
