Stop by the Pawleys Island store on October 7th, 2006 from 2 until 5PM. Learn a few tricks and fun things that you can do with Cricut. If you already have a machine, bring it with you and we’ll so some hands on instruction, or you can try your hand at using it and do a couple of "Make-n-takes". If you have not already done so, you can order one for yourself or have Santa give us a call. Scrapbooks By The Sea is an authorized Cricut dealer and according to our supplier we have sold more units than anyone at the beach, including those big guys. Our prices are the best at the beach, just like we are the Best Of The Beach – according to the Sun News readers poll.
