Sneek Peek...

For those of you who check the blog, here's a sneek peek of April's projects. We are focusing on Mother's Day and Father's Day. I know it's a little early, but they always seems to sneek up on you. So I'm just getting you ready! I'm using a new stamp set from the upcoming mini-catalog. LOVE IT!!! The Father's Day card also doubles as a gift card holder.

Hope to see you all next week!

Thank you...

Thank you x 6 to everyone who came last night. We had a good turn out with a lot of good food, new friends to meet, and lots of thank you cards. We made a Thank You gift card box. It was fun to use the Textuz Plates for the Big Shot (and the Cuttlebug - thanks Kaylene!). The box folding was a little tricky, but everyone's turned out great!

Next time we'll be making Mother's Day and Father's Day projects. I'm still taking requests for techniques...

Bring on spring...

Yeah, winter is almost over! I'm not a fan of the cold nor the snow. I look forward to spring.

Well, since I haven't been doing much paper crafting lately, I'm glad I have my 2009 calendar on file. These were the pages for March. Isn't Josh too cute?!!! I'm going to try to do more this month. March is birthday crazy for our family, so I should be making cards non-stop.
