At Colorful Creations we strive to present to you a unique store to visit to get all of your paper crafting needs. We set high standards for our classes, store samples and products we carry. Especially in the summer months we have people travel from ALL over the world, where we hear how they wish they had a store like ours near them, or that we're the best store they have ever visited. Recently one of our regular customers was traveling and sent us this email on her return home:
subject: my observations and unsolicited praise
Hi Ladies, just wanted to send you a quick email regarding my recent trip to_________. Everyone has told me for several years that if I ever get to _____, I have to go to ________. That is was the best LSS and that they have everything. After visiting I can honestly tell you, ladies of CC, that everyone is wrong. Your store is FAR better in merchandising, inspiring, and conveying the community-minded store that you are. I was really un-wowed. But at the same time feeling happy that I live so close to a store of the Colorful caliber.
"Hi Ladies, I just had to write to say how much I
enjoyed the stamptoberfest this year. You really outdid yourselves. the
projects were all awesome and the day was just so much fun. Kudos to the
whole crew."

"Oh my god! That’s a picture that I am putting into
my all about me book! Thanks so much. I had soooooo much fun and met such
a wonderful group of people. The owner of Colorful Creations should be
very proud of her staff, they are very talented and friendly and I had
such a good time. I can’t wait to do it again. Thanks for the
photo."

"Hi Kim, Monique, Jayne, Jenn, Melissa, Dee, Bev, and
all the rest,
Thank you to all of you who made this day possible. I understand the
enormous amount of work that went into the planning and running of the
event. And it was an event. A marvelous event. I can't believe how
generous each one of the stores was. The goodie bags were awesome, as were
all the prizes for the games and all that Kim gave away after we got back.
There aren't enough adjectives to describe how fantastic it was. Super,
super job you all did. I was so happy to be able to join in the fun. Can't
wait for the next one."

"THANK YOU for a wonderful evening on Wednesday.
Everyone had a terrific time! The make-and-takes were excellent and so
much fun to do. The treats were so yummy. The discounts were so generous.
And the hostesses (and bartender) were THE BEST! WA-HOO!! Can't wait for
the next party."

"I recently stopped in your store while on vacation.
I was in scrapbook heaven. I really enjoyed your store and wish I lived
closer so I could come more often. I do however plan on coming to the
seaside getaway in September. Keep up the good work. P.S. I loved the
layouts you had hanging on the wall. They were beautiful. Thank you for a
wonderful experience."
...Lisa
"I just recently adventured out to Cape Cod with my
friend Delaney (15) and her family this past week and happened to stop by
your store. I absolutely loved it! We both happen to be very creative and
enjoy scrapbooking as teenagers. I just began scrapbooking a year ago and
am eager to start learning more techniques and ways to do things. But the
only places that sells scrapbook things is Joann Fabrics. When i came into
your store i was basically in heaven! (haha) I really liked your samples
and ecspesially the "love book" that was from valentines day.
You should consider selling them! Scrapbooking is one of my favorite
hobbies now and i love that i can keep them and pull them out when family
is over! It also teaches me things i would have NEVER imagined! Thanks for
your inspiration and support! Your awesome!"

"Dear Jane, Jenn, Melissa, Glennie and Matt!
Thanks so much for an absolutely wonderful evening! I had a blast at VIP
night! You are all so generous of your time and talents. Everything was
perfect. An evening of fun, food and friends. What a lot of work to put
on! I hope your are all recovering! Take care!"
... Holly
"You guys . . . you certainly know how to make a
{creative chick} feel like a VIP! Last night's event was packed with so
much fun: awesome make and takes, great bargains, fun prizes (especially
cuz I won a couple of them), yummy goodies. I would be remiss if I failed
to mention the tasty summer fruity martinis and, and of course, the cool
bartender. Matt, you rock! And so do you Jayne, Jenn, Melissa and Glenni.
How in the world are you going to top this one? Thanks a bunch!"
...Janice
"Your pet album class was really lots of fun. Am
working on completing it with lots of cat photos! Will show it to you when
it is done! Don't know if you realize it when you (and others) teach, but
participating in your classes isn't just a great way to get a project done
or to learn a new technique...it is a wonderful escape from the
"every day"!! I needed that and it worked! Thanks for a fun
evening!!"
...Diane
"I had the best time today at your store an in my Ali
Edwards classes! You have a fantastic store! I love all of your way cool
product. I think you are so inviting and friendly and welcoming. I love
the talent you exude, the projects all around the store, and I just love
coming in! Thanks for having Ali up and for sharing her with us. Thanks
for everything! I really look forward to seeing you again soon."
...Michelle
"I have spent the last hour or so looking through
your website. AMAZING. Life is officially unfair (I live in the UK and you
are in the US). The classes you offer are stunning and the pictures
on your site are truly inspirational. I saw so many thing that I would
love to do. Many ideas I had never seen before, I especially like the
lunchbox. BRILLIANT. Thank you for getting my creative imagination into
gear."
...Allyson
"I was in your store last week and just love it! Thanks for keeping
