A Little Gift For our Latest Guest

  So yesterday and today Debby Schuh was teaching at the store.  This is the gift I created for her.

 Most everything was done on the Silhouette.

I used cardstock and BoBunny Double Dots.

Everything was inked using Distress Inks.

I work all day during the class which should be fun.  Can't wait!  Have a great day!

Look what I made?

 With my new Silhouette and some of Wendy Vecchi's products.

So excited she's coming to our little corner of the world to teach 2 amazing Classes!

We're almost ready in the store things are getting set up just adding the finishing touches.

Bombshell Blog Hop May - Banners

Welcome to the May Humpday Blog Hop for Bombshell Stamps! This months theme was Banners.  I guess I played a little fast and loose with this theme.  But the Lantern Die from Memory Box went so well with the Koi Tattoo stamps.  I  love how it turned out!  Thanks for stopping by my Blog and be sure to check out all of the other amazingly talented artists that are playing along on the hop!

Love is in the Air

It's finally bright and sunny here!  Thank  goodness.  The kids are looking forward to their parties this Friday and I am looking forward to a quiet weekend of catching up more. 

 I began cleaning my scrap room yesterday  and actually getting rid of some trays and such that were no longer helping me organize but just clutter the room it's not too bad.  I still have to work on the cabinets and unmounting some stamps but it's looking positive.  Maybe I'll get my dining room back?

So all I have today is the quick banner I made for the store event a couple of weeks ago.  It's cute but missing something?  I need to fix it but I'm a little at a loss I think I'm Valentined out?  Is that possible?

Supplies, Cardstock Bazzill, Glitter Paper American Crafts, Dies Spellbinders, Punches Marvy, Letters were cut with Cricut Storybook Font and lastly ribbon is American Crafts with teeny tiny hearts!

Ahhhh Winter Is Still Here

New Store Banner made with Spellbinders Nesties, AC Glitter Paper, BoBunny Double Dots, Storybook Cricut Cartridge and Maya Rd. Ribbon.

So today begins a big crazy clearance sale at the store.  I'm off to fill up the classroom with clearance merchandise to ready it for the arrival of customer!  Woo Hoo!  Then it's back home to start taking down Christmas stuff.  Abbi doesn't understand why it's still Winter now that the Holiday's are over.  Oh poor Chicago baby doesn't understand how long winter actually is here!  EEEK!   

Anyhoo after all of that I will continue to work on Valentines for the shop and some swap items for this month.  Gotta figure out my ATC swap for this month I have a couple ideas I just have to try them out for actual doability!  Hmmm is that a word?  I have grand ideas usually they are not actually possible!  HA

Hope your enjoying your weekend!

Happy Holidays

Banner uses Spellbinder Nestabilities, Bazzill, Cricut(for Letters and Ribbon. 

Hope everyone had is having an AWESOME HOLIDAY!  We had a wonderful trip to Nashville to visit my family!  Our Christmas with them was so amazing!  Everyone had a great time.  We got back just in time for Christmas Eve.  Without much fuss just a minor delay and a blow out on the highway coming home but by midnight we were tucked in our own beds!  All is well except the tire of course.  Christmas Eve was spent with Dave's family having fun and laughing.  Yesterday we had a great day just the four of us lounging about and enjoying all the presents Santa brought us.  I for one got a new saucepan which I made Crab and Shrimp Bisque in.  Everyone loved it totally YUM-O-Licious with fresh baked bread!  And I didn't ruin Dave's Crab meat by putting it in Mac & Cheese like I planned. 

Today we are being snowed in.  So far about 4" of the white fluffy(at least it's not ice)stuff!  Everyone is outside digging out as I type!  Gotta go take photos!  It's all good we made cookies and played more games on the Wii.  We're about to get crafty with some new toys we all got!   WOO HOO! 

Hope everyone stays warm and safe this Holiday Season!
