Welcome!
Welcome to the The Treasure Box Website and online store! We are so excited to be able to offer you some great kits, products and much more to come. This venture is still relatively new for us - to be online rather than a brick and mortar store - we hope that you will find things that you want to make your own and stick with us as we continue to add more and more each week. It is our objective to be able to give you the same great products and services that we have done for the last 14 years. Our store has always been independently owned and operated and now it really is!! It is just us and our daughter running the show so we will do our best to give you our all. We hope that you will keep telling us what you need so we can make this the best online store you will visit!
We continue to add new page kits for you to enjoy putting together. As usual, they have everything you need to complete a 2-page layout. Each kit comes with directions, a photo and most papers pre-cut for you. All you need is your glue, and maybe a distress pad if you like, and a little bit of time. My goal is that you are able to put some photos on a completed page in a short amount of time and have fun doing it. One of my favorite things to do is design pages that are generic enough to be used by anyone at any time. I am always working on more kits so be sure to check back often so as not to miss any.
We have decided to carry cardstock from American Craft because they not only have 130 colors and more often than not I find myself going to those papers to match my pattern papers. We also offer paper lines in complete packages by Basic Grey, Echo Pack Papers, Fancy Pants and so on. If you would like to have us add a certain line just ask and we will do our best to accommodate you. If you would like to reserve a paper line each month just let us know.
We are still able to do special orders for you and look forward to providing you that service. Also, if you need an album done just give a call or send an e-mail and we will get that done for you.
We want to thank you for your visit to our site and hope to see you again soon. We also appreciate all of your support and kind words.
Hugs to you all,
Cheryl, John and Rebekah

Hello everyone,
I hope this day finds you well and enjoying life. I've been on John's case to get those page kits on line but he has been working overtime. This along with his commute is keeping him more than busy! I think that it will happen in the next couple days. Today he was in Greeley at Kris and Deb's fundraising crop for the day and I'm supposing he is quite tired tonight but I haven't talked to him yet. I am in Houston and if you read my blog I will give you all the details about what I'm doing here. I am trying to decide about Facebook for the store which everyone around me this week thinks I need to do. Those of you who know me know that I am computer challenged so. . . Let you know how that discussion goes; what do you think?
I have a great new product in the "store" for all of you who send cards to others either cards that you have made or those purchased. A young woman has started a company that I wish I had been cleaver enough to think of. For me it's sometimes hard to part with a card that I have made because I love it so much. So I now have in stock pads like post-it notes with either words such as "smiles are contagious" printed on them along with blank versions that you place inside the card. (This replaces the yellow sticky notes that we sometimes place inside). You put about three inside the card then you write your note on the sticky note, you send it to someone. When they receive it, they take off your note and they can write on the next piece of paper and they can send it on. You can do this over and over again thus, recycling the card and making many people smile. Of course, you can place as many stickies inside the card as you wish to start the process. I was recently in Walmart and went to the card section to get Halloween cards for my little girls and found a section of cards that made me laugh out loud. Of course, I bought some and promptly added some of the sticky notes to the inside. If I got such a kick out of the cards, maybe someone else will too. It's something to consider:)
Happiness and hugs to you all,
Cheryl
