Some card making time

I wanted to post a few things I recently made during the Christmas break. I plan to give them out as door prizes for the upcoming classes and the Open House. I think they are sooo cute. I had a lot of fun making these projects.

It's been wayyyy too long.....

OK...I'm really here. Life just seems to have a way of taking over. I have been pretty busy just with little things. I know you can all relate. As far as papercrafting, I have been working on putting together my craft room. It's almost there....I've also been doing a little bit of Stampin' Up stuff as well. I've posted a few photos of some things I've done. I've also posted a photo of a Thanksgiving seating card my good friend, Amber, had made. She is too crafty!! Some photos are at the top of the post. Sorry....this program is not letting me put the photos where I want them!

I am also putting some classes together for this year. I cannot believe it is 2010 already!

I am also hosting a Sale-a-Bration Open House on Saturday, Jan. 30, 2010 (9:30am-12:30pm). The Sale-a-Bration promotion runs from January 5-March 31, 2010. You spend $50 (pre tx and SH) and you get a free item from the Sale-a-Bration catalog or a free stamp set from the current Idea Book and Catalog (value of $15.95 or less). Also, the Occasions Mini Catalog starts on January 5th and runs until April 30, 2010. There are so many cute things in both of them. Come to the Open House and check them out. There is no RSVP required for the Open House, however, if you DO RSVP, by January 24th, you will receive a special gift when you arrive to the Open House.
