I am announcing that Memories Scrap N Stamp will be closing. The decision to do this was not an easy one for me.

The past 3 years have been a dream come true for me. I have been lucky in so many ways. First, was the startup of a successful business, that was a passion of mine to be creative with scrapbooking and stamping. Choosing product that made my business unique and easy to shop at, and to create the customer friendly environment, which sometimes businesses lack. The staff that have helped me along the way and those that have always been with me since day 1, I couldn’t have done it without you! The most important piece was the customers and friends that I made along the way and the memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life.

I will miss Memories Scrap N Stamp and all of you that made my dream a reality. However, my personal family time and professional career are taking more of my time, this allows less time for the business and the time that it needs for it to expand. I will miss everyone, but I hope to be able to spend time with the new friends that I have made and continue those memories.

There will be a complete dispersal of the stock and fixtures, beginning Tuesday, November 6th everything will be 25% off. Our last day of business will be Thursday, November 22, on that day everything will reduced again. I will be open on Sundays until November 22nd. Anyone wondering if they have credit can call the store and we can check for you, I will honor that credit until November 10th. If anyone is interested in fixtures please call me directly at 608-513-3188.

Beginning on Monday, November 5th we will not be honoring coupons or punching cards. I will continue to honor gift certificates.

Thanks again to all of my friends for supporting Memories Scrap N Stamp!
