Scrap Day anyone??

I would love to plan another scrapday and the dates I'm thinking are March 7th or March 14th. Any suggestions? It would be from 9am-6pm again so lots of time to be creative!! Would love to hear some feedback so I can start planning for this and buying goodies. Last time we gave away over $200 worth of product in that one day. It was so much fun!!

The new catalog started yesterday and if you haven't seen it yet, well, that's just sad. lol I am also planning a new catalog party (yes I'm a little slow) for Feb. 3rd. The reason for being a little later is that Sale-A-Bration starts Feb. 1st and you'll want to get in on that too. Hopefully I can figure out how to update my side bar and add the flyers so you can just click on there.

Alright, off to make some more cards for the silent auction.

Would you buy these?

From a silent auction? My sister's school is having a movie night with silent auction and I'm donating this mini magazine holder with 30 valentine cards. The cards are ATC size, 2.5 x 3.5 so a good size for valentines. I used Riding Hood Red, Pink Pirouette and Whisper White cardstock and ink. I heat embossed many of the images just because I could. The pp is from the designer line in the RHR color. I used A Happy Heart and Love you Much stamp sets. (both in the new catalog) Hopefully a few people put their names into the hat.





I also wanted to share a little funny that happened at our house the other day. Typically it's my youngest son that eats candy like he'll never see it again but on this particular day I found my oldest hiding under the table crunching candy. When I asked what he was doing he said he found these candy donuts and loved them. He had eaten almost the entire roll and said he just couldn't help himself. Too cute.

Another share


Here is another layout I got done using mostly SU! product. Just the transparency overlay and sewing (which I still need help with) are non SU!. I really like the way this one turned out too. The 'love you' is a rubon from one of the packs (can't remember which one though and I'm too lazy to go check sorry).
Hope you enjoyed my layout and I'm off to bed.
Until next post...

I did it!!!

I scrapbooked last night. woohoo. With everyone being so sick over the holidays I never thought I'd get some one on one time with my room. I was up until 2am scrapbooking. Could have gone longer but knew I would regret it today. I got a few layouts done. Here is one to share.
The lace cardstock (stars) and the letters for "running!" are not SU!. The rest is. I used my white ink to smear a background on the kraft cs. I punched a star out of RHR cs which matched the lace cs and a smaller start out of the pp. Also punched the curly label out of pp and added a piece of scrap RHR and faux stitched over them. I used the Rough Edges alphabet for the rest of the title. Love how it turned out. The pic was also a total fluke when I took it (over a year ago) but knew this is what I wanted to do with it.
I also wanted to share this awesome journal my friend Tanya gave me for Christmas. I love journals and have tried to keep them before but it never lasts too long. Hopefully this will be a better year for journaling. I'm also going to leave it out on my desk to continually remind me. I've entered something everyday so far so I'm doing great. I know it won't always be everyday, but hopefully the important things get written down. Like this -40 degree weather!!!
Until next time...
