Hi Ladies,

Yes, I'm a little behind this month. Kevin decided he was ready to start remodeling the bathroom this past weekend. I've been ready for over a year, so the minute he said he was ready, I got right to work! It looks so nice. We're not quite finished yet, but definitely moving in the right direction .

I'm going to make one more change for regular scrap and card workshops from here on out. Anytime you place an order of $35 or more, your scrap pages or cards are free. You are never obligated to make a purchase and can always just pay $5 for the workshop projects, but I thought I'd reward you for making a purchase when you want to.

Here is the info for workshops in August:

Tuesday, August 10th - 3:45 - 8 PM - 12 x 12 Scrap Layout for $5. Come and go as you need to. We will be making a 2 page 12 x 12 layout that shows you how to utilize scraps of paper and ribbon. See attached for details. This is a super quick and simple technique that makes cute pages for any age, gender, etc. All you need to bring is scissors and adhesive. Please RSVP by this Friday, August 6th.

Tuesday, August 17th - 3:45 - 8 PM - 3 Cards for $5. Come and go as you need to. We'll be focusing on some beautiful techniques with these cards including heat emboss resist, black magic, and paper flower folding, using the Inspired by Nature Stamp Set. I'll also have the additional card kits available including three more cards made using the same stamp set for $5. All you need to bring is scissors and adhesive. Please RSVP by Friday, August 13th and include whether you will be making just the workshop cards or want to include the additional card kit.

Saturday, August 28th - 9 AM - 12 PM- Adorable Card Holder Project for $10. Life is finally settling down a bit and I am able to schedule a FUN Saturday workshop! We'll be making the attached card holder. Your cost includes the materials to make the card holder and a full roll of sticky strip to assemble the holder, along with coffee and breakfast desserts! The project will take about an hour, so you are welcome to come anytime during the three hour period. This is a great gift for friends and family. Fill it up with your homemade cards and you're good to go! Please RSVP by Friday, August 13th so that I have enough Sticky Strip for everyone.

July Card Workshop

Hi Ladies,

Our July card workshop will be held on Tuesday, July 27th from 3:45 - 8:00 PM. We'll be making three cards using three great new stamp sets: Blissful Bride - found in the Summer Mini, Because I Care - A Level 1 Hostess Set in the new catalog, and Baby Bundle, a new set in the new catalog. Because of the increase in the price of cardstock, workshops will now include 3 cards for $5. Each month, I will also make an additional "Kit to Go", which will be three more cards using the same stamp sets. The kit will be $5. This month, I'll also have at least two more card samples from the three sets listed above. That should help you see what you can do with the sets - get your creative juices flowing!

The RSVP deadline for the card workshop is Monday, July 19th. I'll need to know if you plan to make the workshop cards alone or if you'd also like the "kit to go". I also have two freebies for you this month. Spend $50 and get the new Catalog and Idea Book free PLUS pick out any cardstock pack of your choice FREE! Pick out some great new stamp sets or accessories and get the ideas and cardstock free!

Looking forward to seeing you all again on the 27th! Hopefully, I'll have the August workshop samples ready for you to see! Have a great day.......

July Scrap Page Workshop

Hi Ladies,

The July Scrap Page workshop is being held on Tuesday, July 13th from 3:45 PM - 8:00 PM. You can come and go as you need to. We'll be making a two page 12 x 12 spread for $5. These pages highlight adding texture to your page using border punches. Although the pics aren't the greatest, it is a very cool, easy technique. The last day to RSVP for this workshop is Friday, July 9th. Hope to see you there!

Here are some more card samples using the Extra Large Bird Punch. You'll be amazed by all the things you can create using it!

June Cards

Hi Everyone,

You probably thought I went AWOL the last couple of months. I did....sort of. I got roped into coaching my daughter's major league softball team, along with helping my husband coach our son's minor league team. I spent pretty much every night of May and June practicing or playing games. It was quite an experience. We had some great kids to work with. Just felt like I had no time for anything else.

Above are the pics of the cards we did at the June card workshop. I'll also be posting some more samples. All of these cards are made using the Extra Large Bird Punch. It is an awesome tool! Cost is $16.95.......stay tuned for more samples.
