Wow! Stacey, you have always been a compassionate person who truly cares about your peeps! Treating everyone equally is the best way to be, making you the best! The shop that didn’t hop is the CLASS shop!

[@lindaanderson7375]

I so appreciate your compassionate heart for all of your customers and pleased to have been counted as one of them over the years. Thank you.

[@marzs1214]

Stacy I just love you and your values!! You are incredible!! Our world needs to treat each other just like you stated!! You have a beautiful heart❤️❤️❤️

[@Face-bz6il]

I like your honesty and I can tell you are a good person.

[@elisebb8423]

Stacey, I really respect you for standing up for keeping crafting affordable for all, and to stand up to make sure that all get gifts just for coming in! Have a great week!

[@csthankful]

Your dies are fabulous, Stacey. I love your heart of being giving and kind to everyone, no matter what it means for you. Doing the right this is ALWAYS the right thing! LOVE the opulent paper and tickled it is available again! Wahoo!

[@dmaynardabu]

My dearest Stacey, I just hope you to know how special you are. I love your compassion for others. Thank you for all that you do for our crafting community.

[@terryefosheehawkins1341]

What you have built isn't a business, it is a family. You are truly beautiful inside and out.

[@coolstamper]

And this is the EXACT reason why I watch your video every week...because of your heart, Stacey!!! I spoke with you one time on the phone and you treated me sooooo well, understanding my dilemma, and I’ve NEVER forgotten your kindness!!! God bless you, your family, and I pray that God blesses your store!!! 💕

[@Ms7art]

Ohhh Stacey, kindness will always win in the long run, even if it brings us in troubles sometimes... I love you for the way you think and care for others, and I love to watch your videos because of your kindred and bright spirit. You generously give your ideas and best deals of your fabulous designs, I don't own any of them, because of insane custom charges where I live. But I watch most your videos because of the love you radiate and the bright light of your soul that nourishes my creativity. I often laughed, but also was touched to tears, and that only happens cause you are genuinely you... thanks alot for that, may all your kindness flows back to you a thousand times. I love you, for who you are 💞

[@melhayley6738]

Yet again Stacey your design talent has blown me away, your mind must be bursting with designs. You are beyond talented and I just love the way you always think of the customer in keeping the products affordable, you are a 🌟

[@lndtlr]

You make all of us feel like family, Stacey, so that's why we stay with you! I'm very thankful that I don't have to pinch pennies now a days, but I remember when that was the case. My main problem now is finding room for all the goodies I've purchased from you!!! God bless you all for hanging in there and I pray everyone stays healthy, safe and happy...

[@marshadavis3630]

Thank you Stacey for being you !! I hope you know how much your kindness and generosity means to all of us !! I'm sure I'm not the only one that watches your you tube classes and looks forward to our Saturdays with you !! You have a special knack for making us all feel good about ourselves and help us to believe that we can make beautiful cards or layouts without spending a fortune. Being on a limited income sometimes makes it hard to afford all of the pretty dies and papers, but thanks to you keeping your products as reasonably priced as possible and then the big special sales that you have a few times a year, it makes crafting possible for all of us !! I am so glad that I found your facebook page a few years ago now and I've been watching your videos ever since!! You are an inspiration to me and i'm sure others too, you've had to deal with so much the last few years, but no matter what you stay strong and keep smiling !! So thank you for all that you do and know that you are appreciated !! Take care, be safe and God Bless you and your family and all of the SMS family !!

[@rosalieburke783]

Stacey, thank you for your integrity and respect for every crafter. You are an inspiration and a reminder of true values. Thank you

[@lisamariewinland1830]

Stacey you are a kind and thoughtful person. I have been shopping here for years and if it wasn't for you, I would not have the collection of dies and supplies that I could afford. That makes my heart happy. I love your utubes, hearing your cheerful laugh makes my day!! Thank you for all you do. So excited for the warehouse sale! Another great utube !

[@mpatriciacasillas]

Stacey you are a strong example of a good soul. Love your videos and your hair is beautiful.

[@patwilliams9730]

Stacey-I truly appreciate the person you are and try to remind the rest of us what is important. You're a true diamond!

[@johncmullins5005]

Stacey, integrity has no price but immeasurable value! That is one of the things that brings me back to your business from my home here in Michigan and my other home in Nova Scotia, Canada. I've had to take the hit instead of selling my integrity and I appreciate how hard it is and retained the self-worth I earned for doing so!

[@martiejohnson4387]

Stacey, Thanks for all that you do for the people that can't afford to buy some stuff they would love to have . I love the way that you are always helping us so that we can afford more and so that we can craft and be able to afford things we might normally not be able to have. Thank You for being such an Awesome, Kind and Caring Person. I know in my Heart that God is going to Bless You for being this Person that you have chosen to be . With so much evil happening out there it is refreshing to know a person like you. Take Care and God Bless.

[@Bkchester78]

Thank you so much for sticking to your ethics and for your amazing kind heart!! Awesome dies and the samples are wonderful!! Great job everyone!!

[@peggypighetti9517]

As usual you just make my day! I look forward to Saturdays with Stacey and you always shares such wonderful ideas and products and such wonderful laughs and smile. Thank you for all you do to keep crafting affordable.

[@bonnieisabelle3641]

OMG thank you thank you thank you to whom ever came up with the washi tape idea!!! GENIOUS!!!!

[@rhondita95]

Wow, that was a long one, Stacey! Now we know the story of the mean people and the shop that didn’t hop! Thanks for hanging in there and continuing to be your kind self! Many hugs to you!💕

[@michellerickard1290]

Stacey, you are so very sweet. I just love your heart. I think that is why you are still in business when so many others are no longer in business. Blessings for those that bless others. And that washi tape idea is SOOOO brilliant! WOW.

[@mardellobermiller7025]

Stacey I am sooo glad that you are so generous with your business. I feel like I have shopped with you for so long, that we are friends. Whether it was a good year and had lots of money to blow, or a leaner year that I have to play it close to my belly. You have something for everybody. Bless you for being so generous

[@bethvallone3194]

Stacey you are a truly special person. Last year I missed The Shop That Did Not Hop due to health issues and missed getting my pin! Never again ! I be tuning in with bells on! I don't have a problem with it shops when in ships especially during these times we live in. Blessings to all of !you

[@sharonfulton6087]

Your new collection of dies are so nice and versatile and the vinyl sheets are a must have. Thanks to the SMS member who shared using tape. Thanks Stacey for another informational Saturday.

[@booboo8115]

Oh Stacey❣️❣️ You always make everything better....I look forward to my Saturday time with you. You are so accommodating to the needs of everyone, an Angel on Earth. Keep moving forward with your positive attitude, your reward will be waiting. Take care & stay safe.💖🌻🌺🌹✨🍷

[@shaundasnider107]

You are so kind, Stacey! This world would be a much better place if we would all show a little bit of love and kindness. ❤️

[@kayteescraps6679]

You have a compassionate heart and I really appreciate that about you. Thank you for making scrapbooking affordable!

[@michelleoyer5649]

I just love how much of a wonderful person you are and how seldom we find truly good people who are business owners that care about treating everyone so kindly & equally ( and doing the right thing as I’ve seen you do time and time again!) That’s why I truly enjoy spending my money with you! I would rather buy something with you and wait however long it takes to get my order in the mail than buy elsewhere and get it quicker because I feel it’s so important to support businesses that are ran as yours is and towards someone who is truly a genuine good person such as yourself!!

[@openingbud51]

As always you bring great ideas and much joy. Thank you for continuing to be there for so many folks

[@brendacrawford8390]

Thank you Stacey for always making us all feel special. If I ever make it to your store I will love it I am sure. Thanks for telling us again the story.

[@karenmoseley9337]

You are an angel on earth. I cannot wait to listen to you each week because you bring such a calm to me in these trying times. Someday, when we have gotten past this mess we are in, I am going to visit your store in California. I live in Connecticut, so that will be quite an adventure for me. Please keep doing all that you do.

[@denisedavidson422]

You are so much fun. I am a fan from Virginia. So glad I found you and your shop. I love that you are so candid and real. Praying for you, your family, and your shop. I really wish you were next door or at least close by. This world needs more people like youj.

[@theresachenery7996]

Bless you Stacey!! I don’t think anyone could have a sad face around you!! You are such a kind person!!!

[@cassiemartin5368]

I am one of those people who always wondered what the shop that didn't hop stood for so thanks for explaining it to us. Also sometimes people are upset when someone else has a success. I'm glad you were able to not hold a grudge though, some people would of still been bitter. You live and you learn. Thanks for always being so upbeat and happy, I can't wait every Saturday to watch your KZbin because you always make me happy.

[@reneecarpenter5174]

True grit! I love that even though your feelings were hurt, you stood your ground and stayed true to who you are. You are an inspiration

[@karenjones7414]

I absolutely love ALL the dies! I got my order this past week with my sticky dots! Wahoo Kachoo! So many girls have visiting your store on their bucket list. I never dreamed that I would ever have that opportunity but I did and I was so thrilled! My daughter had to move back to Maryland from California for various reasons which we did not understand at the time. We kept asking God, why? I think it was that she was supposed to be with her support system through this pandemic. We put things in his hands! Anyway, she hopes to return to California soon and if she does you can be sure I will visit again! If anyone doubts your sincerity all they have to do is meet you and they will see you truly are the lovely person they see on your weekly classes!

[@DDspaperworks]

Absolutely adorable dies! Thanks Stacey. We’re all in this together and we’re going to make it by the Grace of God.

[@linwillett8157]

As one of your fans with a smaller purse I appreciate that you always have something that fits my budget and makes my heart happy. Thank you!

[@GuadalupeHernandez-gf4nn]

Lin Willett not a lot of business do this and it’s appreciated.

[@DnBSchmidt]

Thank you Stacie for being so awesome and not giving up, I love all your tutorials and I can’t wait to come visit your store when all this is over.

[@joellenwyatt585]

And that's the reason that you are still in business. It is wonderful to do business with someone who is honest and honorable.

[@doloresjames8741]

I love the new dies. You are such an inspiration. I love your spirit and the knowledge you share for newbies. Can't wait to shop that will not....Thanks for all you do

[@pateva100]

Thank you for being so generous with your knowledge AND your humor. You make my day!

[@karenwhittam6723]

You are perfect how you are, how you were and how you will be always. We need more love like yours ❤️

[@vickidonnelly543]

Stacey! You amaze me with every video!!! You have changed my life.

[@drinah2172]

Stacey such a blessing to the scrapbooking community. Thank you! 😀 Beautiful samples from the SMS ladies. Thank you! ☺️

[@robinbrothen2305]

What a great release Stacey!!! I love your stories and the fact that you are always looking out for the crafter, we so need more people like you in this world.

[@joannsanchez6609]

Love SMS ! Every week something new and wonderful !

[@karenreeves5801]

I just love your videos. Thank you for the explanation of “The Shop That Did Not Hop”. Never could figure out why it was called that. You are such an amazing person to want to do what you did. Love all of these new products.

[@rosynewlun1345]

Hi, sweet Stacey! While I did not know why the sale is called The Shop That Did Not Hop, I could tell by the name that it had to do with something classy on your behalf. And the story you shared only proved that to me. You are a kind, thoughtful, compassionate, fun, loving, generous, CLASSY woman. You attract all of us because you are honey sweet. Thank you, for considering everyone's purse size and feelings. You are so 💯👏👏👏🥰💜💚🧡 Thank you!!!

[@allasimonoff9007]

Such fun die sets. I really do appreciate your thinking about the crafter budget and providing such wonderful deals to your customers. I will really, really miss the Shop That Did not Hop in store this year. It's always such a wonderful atmosphere you create for the eyes and the pocketbook. It's an experience everyone must experience at least once. Will be looking forward to next year's for sure. Thanks Stacey.

[@gaildean55]

Thank you so much for the explanation of the Shop that Didn't Hop. I started paper piecing 30 years ago by tracing or photocopying coloring book illustrations onto different colors of cardstock or paper, cutting out the pieces, and reassemble. Dies make it so much easier! Thank you!

[@lfaber2747]

Thank you so much for all you teach us Stacey!!!💝💝💝

[@earlinekeepingitreal]

Wow Stacey you are such a wonderful person thanks for thinking of others you have truely a big heart

[@bettycorson2061]

I love how you make every customer feel welcome. I have only been there once because I live in Maine, but I did love your store and everything in it. My daughter took me to CA for the main purpose to meet you. Unfortunately, we chose the very day you were upstairs doing the video for that Saturday, so we did not get to meet you, even thou we stayed there for almost 2 hours. I know you are a wonderful person because I can tell.

[@Jeanietootoo]

Just want to say thank you for staying true to yourself. That is something I strive for also....just be kind and do what is right.

[@lindarobertson5978]

Love your girl witch and spider web dies. So glad you have the rose gold, charcoal & silver opulent cardstock in also. Thank you for your teaching videos. So helpful.

[@lindacockrell1001]

Such exciting pieces and elements that I can’t find easily. My brain is racing trying to keep up and take a few notes to boot. Your warehouse sale sounds like a dream come true. Must start working on my list of things I hope will be in the sale. Stacey, your story about “The shop that didn’t hop” brought me to tears. I also try to live my life using your virtues. If we could all do just one nice thing a day, I do believe the world would be a better place. I hope my grandchildren inherit a world full of love. 😛

[@francesbartholomew8057]

Loved the video and lessons. So sorry you were hurt by those other shops, but you are doing great with The Shop That Did Not Hop. You are so caring of your customers and your staff family. We are all blessed to have you. I need that charcoal opulent paper. I have the other four packs. Keep smiling!

[@barbaraboynton9665]

You are such a wonderful, caring person. Thank you for sharing the story.

[@batvas3]

Kindness makes you richer than money can ever do!!!

[@SandpiperStudioArt]

Thank you, Stacey, for being such an encouragement for all of us & for truly caring about others. Have only recently found you on KZbin, so I've subscribed & looking forward to shopping with you ASAP! Good luck with your sale-

[@karengreig7013]

Thank you for sticking to your convictions. We appreciate you looking after all of us irregardless of how big our bank accounts are. You always make your customers feel special! Loving the halloween dies and the video.

[@brucengericlark8837]

As always Stacey you made my heart happy. Love your dies.

[@carytwight8501]

I love your big heart. Thank you for being a strong, fierce voice for those of us on a budget who still love to attend events. Now onto the rest of the video.. 😄

[@kathynorman4675]

[@rosesssky]

And that's why I like you Stacey!!! Without knowing that story about "The Shop that did not Hop:... it fit YOU!!! I've always known that about you! That's why I stick with you through thick or thin!!!!!!!!!

[@ninadowlin4938]

You respect all people, as well as yourself. You have an egalitarian approach to treating your customers. Good business philosophy.

[@lolarogers8530]

I'm in a real negative funk so I thank you for always being a positive bright highlight to every week. You keep me going and I can't wait to see what you come up with next. I wish more people had your philosophy that people should be judged by whom they are.

[@marcellachavez7153]

Thank you Stacey! You are amazing. I had wondered how this came about. You are an incredible human being. That's all you can do.

[@maggiemay725]

Congratulations to the winners! I dance every week with you Stacey!

[@Kayj1223]

So glad to hear the story of how the name of The shop that did not hop came about! I've always wondered! Also, love the idea of the washi tabs on the sticky dots!! What an idea!!!

[@susandavenport9257]

Stacey, you are a true gem.

[@rosetoellner8846]

I loved all of the little “extra” tips in this one.. of course I love all of your videos. You. Help me to be happy.

[@sandyberghuis4485]

One of the reasons I shop with you is because of your integrity - don't ever change who you are Stacey! I am not a fan of Halloween, but I still enjoyed watching your video. The SMS girls did a fabulous job with the samples. TFS!!!!!

[@delftmom3]

I love to listen and learn from you! Thank you for considering us that have smaller budgets. I got another of my orders today and love the free gift enclosed! You are so thoughtful! Thank you!

[@pennefreeman1053]

You are so kind. You made me cry with your story! Can’t wait till the sale!

[@marlenewatts9925]

It didn't feel like 2 hrs! Oh I love these dies. My husband was peeking at the samples and he really loved your dies! Your SMS girls did a great job with the samples. I really enjoyed the KZbin Stacey. Thank you.

[@debbielemarbre]

Thank you for being the shop that did not hop💕

[@sparkleflair]

Stacey, I think that your attitude and kindness is one reason why you're still in business and the others aren't. I love the contour die and the "It's all about the candy" die - they are so cute!

[@lorettaritchie7746]

Thanks for taking the time to explain the shop that did not hop. I appreciate that you look out for those of us on a budget. The new collection is very cool. I especially like the haunted house and the one that is not in the I want it all bundle.

[@SusanSheehy]

Stacey I’m sorry you went through all of that with the shop that didn’t hop! I learn something new every week and today was no exception!! Thank you for all you do.

[@barbborja1910]

The ladies did a great job with their projects. I’m glad that you are still having a warehouse sale but I am bummed that the store won’t be open. Since California just shut almost everything down again, I think you made the right decision in staying closed. Stay safe and healthy ladies.

[@pattypoire4244]

The tricker treaters are so adorable. Glad you are staying safe through all of this. Love ya

[@maryvillegas6556]

Stacey, this Saturday’s workshop was food for my soul. Truly forgot my problems and enjoyed the demos and your whimsical dies. Luved every second. I finally know “the shop that didn’t hop” story and found it hilarious. Hopefully, I’ll get to attend this activity next time .

[@jacquecoonan5675]

You are amazing as I have probably mentioned before! I am a strong woman, and I can stand up to anyone but it wasn't always that way. I commend you for your diligence and just want to say "Love your Style Babe!"

[@dianedragt9444]

Love the idea of putting it on a piece of paper first. Great idea with the Washington tape too. You always look out for the little guy, that's why I always like shopping with you, you always have things that I can never find in my local craft stores.

[@lpiland70]

Good for you Stacy! You're just too Awesome for them!

[@carfriday827]

I am glad you kept going. Thanks for sharing your skills.

[@jacquelinetennant5049]

Omg chairs and lemonade for the picketers - what a hoot. Upsetting at the time but your attitude rocks.

[@cpht9958]

I love SMS!! And I love your sales.. thanks for keeping the crafter on a budget in mind! You are the best!!

[@GardenGal-f3o]

I'm glad you told the story of the shop that did not hop. I had looked through old videos trying to find it. it's ok that you don't hop, but it's much easier for you to dance if you aren't hopping. I'm so sad you went through that, simply because you have a bigger heart than the others..

[@angelamuircroft5181]

I have never used vinyl as I thought you needed an electronic cutting machine. You have opened a new crafting door for me. Thanks again. Wishing you and your family keep safe and well. Xxxx

[@karenreineke5214]

You are a treasure! I wish everyone treated others as you do.

[@cyndiagilbert6216]

Love the purple! The dies are amazing! Never give up! Something will work! Love the video! Thank you!
