First SAS

Hi everyone,

I just had my first SAS last weekend. It went well. Everyone was happy with the 8 birthday cards and envelopes that they went home with. I wish that more could have attended. But we did have fun anyway. I set up four projects at a time and then had a break for refreshments while I set up the next four birthday cards. Most of these were cased with a few changes, some no changes I will try to upload some of them soon. I wanted to keep the cards simple.
This past weekend I went to Rhode Island to a quarterly meeting. It was fun. I learned a couple of things that I really am glad that I got a chance to learn like how to break down what to charge for classes that we put on . It was really ineresting. A lot of math though. I am going to try and do this for my classes. Also while I was there we made a card, an Easter egg, a squash book it's cute but it was difficult for me and a book that held envelopes so that we could put cards into to keep them togther.

Also this weekend my son was in the school play they did The High School Musical. The kids did a wonderful job all of them and I was proud of my son. The first night they had tech difficulties with the mic. We weren't able to hear well the first half, by the second half we could hear them beautifully. The second night was probably the best performance the kids really let themselves go, they were terrific the acting, singing and the enthusism was all there.Thanks for visiting,til next time have a great rest of the day.

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to say that I've visited many of the blogs on here and they are all wonderful. You all have great blogs,you have all this neat stuff added on to your blogs. Mine is so basic because I don't know how to do or link things. I do have some stuff added but I don't know if what I have works or is running. I just wanted to say that I admire all of your blogs and how nice they look. I hope I can get mine to look as great as yours someday.

Also the creations I have found through my visiting are awsome. You guys are so talented and creative. I love to look at the cards and projects that people have done. There have been some great ideas on here. I guess I just wanted to say thanks for sharing about yourselves and your creations.Til next time.

Hello

Hello,

It's been a while, not much going on lately, but I figured I'd better touch base with my blog. I just added a guest book, please feel free to sign it, it's nice to know that people are visiting, and that I'm not just blogging to myself . I haven't any new cards yet but will soon. I'm prepaing for a Stamp A Stack soon and looks like I will have a good crowd lets hope the weather will coorperate. We've had a lot of freezing rain here lately.
The kids were really dissapointed this morning, we were getting a snowstorm and they were hoping for a day off from school but it didn't happen, they didn't even get a delay, although I thought they should have, it was pretty slippery this morning.
Well I guess I'll work on the last stamp a stack card that we are going to do, and then it's get cutting. Thanks for visiting and til next time.

Finally Got Snow

Hi Everyone,

Happy Valntine's Day. Hope everyone enjoyed it. Well we finally got snow. What a messy day it was here. I had to work this morning at 7 and the roads weren't too bad. It was slow. The boss sent us home early. I was very happy, I hate driving in the snow. Coming home was horrible, I couldn't see out of my windows they kept freezing up and I was afraid to stop because of the cars behind me and pulling off to the side was scary as well. I finally made it home. The kids were home anyways. Now they'r hoping for no school tomorow too, don't think that is going to happen. The snow has pretty much ended now.Have a reat night thanks for visiting, til next time.

Here are some cards we had done at the last workshop I had about a month ago. I hope you enjoy.

Valentine's Day Snowstorm?....

Hi Everyone,

I can't believe it, I think we are actually going to get some snow. I'll believe it when I see it. I really don't want to see it, not this time of the year anyways. I suppose it will be nice to have to stay home. A great time to stamp, we'll see. My boys are really hoping for it to come in then they'll have a snow day.

I have some preparing I could do for tomorrow. I have a stamping Technique class on Sunday, hopefully no snow there. I have one new girl joining us and possibly two more. I'm excited for that. I would love to see these classes grow a little. I love the ladies who have been coming right along. We have a good time, a lot of laughing and talking.

Well Hello,

It's been a little while. I was suppose to go to class today but she cancelled it. It was a pleasant surprise so that gives me time to upload the cards we made at my Valentine's Day theme workshop from Sat which ended up pretty good considering we had a bit of snow that morning.

This is one of the cards we made. I love the combo of red and white and absolutely love the polka dots from the Polka Dots and Paisley set we recieved at Christmas time.

This card was made using shimmery white cardstock, love this paper, real red cs,
Ink was Real red spot and craft whisper white. Stamps used was polka Dots and paisley, loving hearts, red gingham ribbon, and the ticket punch. Very simple to make and not much mess. All proucts from Stampin' Up!

Just thoughts

It's been awhile, Haven't had much to talk a bout lately.I have a workshop tomorrow which is just about ready to go, cardstock has been cut an refrshments have been bought. I have three people that are coming, all RSVP's had to be in today. I had 5 that couldn't make it, and about 5 who didn't respond either way I will assume they aren't coming. A little discouraged. Well anyways the workshop will go on and we will be making 2 Valentine's Day cards and a Valentine's day topper to go onto a baggie filled with Hershey Kisses. I will post the pictures of our projects soon. Have a great night. Til next time

Dreary Day

Today is a dark dreary day and the weather is blah we' re due for freezing rain and sleet and boy is it cold. Today is an important ball game so we will be in tuned to the Patriots later on. Not really a football fan but I do like it when we start to get to the playoffs for the Superbowl, I guess you can call me a fair weather fan besides when you live with a husband and two boys you learn to enjoy the game. It's not so bad. It's a good day to stay in. Later I will do some stamping.

Tomorrow it's back to work . The kids are off from school so they get to sleep in lucky them. Hopefully th roads will be o.k. to travel on by tomorrow morning.

I'm expecting my big SU order tomorrow also, I hope it will still get to me. I can't wait. I'll be able to play after work possibly and then I have Tuesday off. Also I have a couple of 40% coupons for Michaels. I really want to get a cuttlebug with one of them and the other I could pick up a couple of the plates or folders that are used with it. Is it hard to work with? Any advice would be appreciated. I've seen so many beautiful creations using it . It kind of looks complicated.

I really want to get some things on my blog page also. I would love to have a calendar and still need to learn how to add links. I would love to put a photo in my profile also but have no clue how to. Tried it a few times but had no luck. Well time for kick off til next time, thanks for stopping by.
