I am afraid isn’t good.

The hackers were back again. Apparently they were getting in a back door they made during one of their first hacks. And unfortunately I do not possess the skills to find the problematic files. Nor do I want to employ a web developer to do the work especially when the store had not been earning any money.

I have closed the store for good. I will be liquidating all merchandise in the coming months with garage sales. I certainly did not expect to end this way but the frustration was just too much for me.

I wish I had more to say right now but I am doing my best not to break down. It’s been a hell of an evening.

    I am so sorry you have to close the store too. I have enjoyed browsing around your store, and you have always been rather patient with my shipping requests. I am going to miss linnecards. All the best to your next undertaking, whatever it may be!

    This is awful news! I’ll miss your store terribly – it was a fabulous place to shop and your forums allowed me to make some good friends and become a better scrapper. Thank you for all that you did!

    I’m so sorry that you are closing. I wish I could have done more in recent months to support you but with two kids in college and pay cuts at work, I couldn’t keep spending on scrapbooking supplies. I have quite a stockpile so I’m set for a while but I will miss the packages. It was like Christmas when one would come in the mail. Thanks for the great customer service and I wish you many blessings in the future.

    Sharon…I’m so sorry that this is happening. It seems as if there is nothing good to look forward to anymore. You made your store a wonderful place to be and brought a lot of great people together. I’ll miss it and you.
