I Love the USA

I finally have a class done - quick & easy but cute. Don't forget to sign up no later than 3 day BEFORE the class- this one will be on July 9th, 2009. You may purchase just the kit if you prefer. We are also trying something a little new this summer - Recipe Pages.
You will now have the option to purchase the instruction sheet with photo to make the kit as you like. It will list every supply & manufacturer we have used to create the kit and then you may purchase the supplies on your own or change it to your personal preference. The cost is $4.99.

Star Wars

The new STAR WARS collection is

finally here - so grab your light sabers and fly on over here. We also have a couple of new items from the Creative Cafe at Creative Imaginations - Family paper and journaling tags - together as double-sided papers.

Missing you.

I was thrown off this week because of Michael Jackson - I know it seems like he was a little off the track but I am really going to miss him. Most of my life has had his music in it - for almost 40 years ( I am really stretching it with my age right here). It's hard to believe this icon is no longer with us. I am wondering if someone will make a paper collection??? I would love to scrapbook items about him. Rest in peace Michael. Farrah Fawcett is another ...a great inspiration to many people - my life seems so much emptier already. I want to thank them for making my road a little more enjoyable.

We Added to our walls...

This blogging thing is supposed to be fun I know but it is a LOT of work! I am finally getting back into a few things after being out of the store for so long ( almost a year now ) and I forgot how much work needs to be done all the time.

I hope this will help keep everyone (and me) up to date on the latest news, products and projects the craft industry has to offer. Scrapbooking is my LOVE and I so miss it - at least I will get to talk about it.
