Last Email from OSCS via Constant Contact

OSCS News will be on Facebook or this blog. We will no longer pay for the email service just to send you all emails. We'll figure out a better way. You may still get an email or two from us – but we're done paying! Really, it was getting expensive, each month with raising rates. So, we're done, kaput. Over it.

We have decided to end our email blasts to our wonderful scrapbooking friends. Instead we'll be updating our Facebook page more regularly as well as this blog. If you would like to join our FB page, click below!

Rainy Day Photo Contest!

Rainy Day Photo Contest: Today-Sunday

Check it out today for a new photo contest on FB about RAINY DAYS! I have so many umbrella and rain boot stickers, but never think to take my camera out when it rains. So today I did. I encourage you to do the same. Just cause it's wet outside, doesn't mean we can't make memories! We'll be giving 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place prizes. Contest ends on Sunday. Please post your photos to our facebook page.

1st Place:     Free crop for you and a friend
2nd Place:     Free crop for yourself
3rd Place:     1/2 price crop for yourself

Send your photos today!
