Welcome!

 

Welcome to the new 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.  As we start this new venture - 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 13 1/2 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 open this site with lots of 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 also have about 8 more kits in the works that I hope to get on by next week.  So be sure to check back often!

We have decided to carry cardstock from American Craft because they have 90 colors and more often than not I find myself going to those papers to match my pattern papers.  We will also be offering paper lines in complete packages by Basic Grey, Echo Park 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 have some glues listed and will be adding more as we have them in stock.  Orders have been placed and should be here this week.  Also, you will start to see embellishments added on an on-going basis. 

Don't forget that those of you living locally can still visit the store and get great prices during our liquidation sale.  That sale will be going on until September 30th unless we sell everything sooner (yeah, right) so help us out!! 

We want to thank you for your visit to this site and hope to see you again soon.  We appreciate all of your support and kind words during this time of transition.

Hugs to you all,

Cheryl, John and Rebekah

 

 What's Happening At The Store

As most of you know by know, after 13 1/2 years we've decided to close our store. Currently everything in the store is 35% off and we still have a lot of great stuff left! We also are selling paper racks, displays, and most of the other fixtures. These are going fast, so get your name on the list if you're interested. Our last day will be September 31st, but that's that day we'll be clearing the building. So get the great deals while they last!

 

Camp Crop- Yes There's One Scheduled!

Have you been lucky enough to go to one of The Treasure Box's Camp Crops?  Well whether or not it's yes or no you have the opportunity to go in a few weeks.  After debating if we should have a Camp Crop or not because our last day in our store is September 30th we gave it the ok.  Here are the details you need to know.

Dates:  October 1-3, 2010

Cost:  $175.00, this includes your lodging, 5 meals, snacks and scrappin' goodies.   One half of this amount is due with sign-up and the rest is due by September 20th.

Where:  Glacier Lodge in Estes Park. This is the last crop we will hold in this location.  We will move to our new Crop Spot for future retreats!

So if it works out for you please come help us celebrate.  We have some great things planned and you're sure to have a great time.  I've never been to a Camp Crop yet that I haven't had at least one good belly laugh and what could be better than that.

 

On-line Store - More to Come

 We've been quite busy the last few weeks between liquidating the store and starting this on-line store while trying to retain some measure of sanity. Aside the sanity thing, all is going well. As you see we've not finished adding all our products to our new on-line store. A sample of what's to come.

  • Cheryl has more kits being finished
  • We'll have a total of 90 American Craft card stock colors to choose from (we have an order coming in the next week or two to fully stock all colors)
  • We have adhesives on order and they should be here by mid September
  • We'll be adding the local area high school papers and embellishments
  • And much more to come

 

Local Events

 We are planning to attend the Northridge Crop in Greeley in October. We'll update with more details in the next week or two
