Wow! It has been a LONG time since I posted!

Wow! I have been so busy lately! I apologize for the lack of posts. Just to give you a heads up of what I have been doing behind the scenes. I am the President of our school PTO and every year we have an annual breakfast with Santa. I usually work on this event for 4 months leading up to the event. We have also had my mother in law and sister in law staying with us for the Holidays. I love when they come and stay.  Our nephew and his son have also moved to Lynchburg and we are helping them get settled. I have some health issues that have been diagnosed recently so that has also been keeping me pretty busy. OK so now that you know what I have been doing, you want to see some cards right? My Stamp Club is Friday night and I promise I will post those cards soon.  But here is the Christmas Wreath we made at a recent class.

 Here is one that I made for Thanksgiving. I love making these wreaths. They are so easy. I plan on making one for Valentines and Easter!

Wreath Class

The Last day to RSVP to make this beautiful wreath is Wed Oct 23rd. Please let me know if you would like to make the Fall Wreath or the Christmas Wreath. All supplies are provided. The cost is $25.00. The class is being held at my home Oct 28th from 6-8PM.

   

Have a GREAT week!

My New Creative Space

I am having the most AMAZING time in my new creative space. Our kitchen was remodeled last month so I have been having my classes at my home. I always had to travel to my church to have my classes since I first became a demonstrator. Let me tell you there is nothing like being able to have them at home and not having to leave. My ladies and I are more comfortable and less formal. My kids no longer have to call me on the phone if they need something. They just come in the kitchen and visit with mom and her girls. No more stressing about leaving something at home. Believe it or not I only forgot something twice in 4 years. Plus the main PLUS! I am able to craft and create whenever I want. Before my stampin supplies were spread all over the house. Therefore, once a month I would pull everything out and create or prepare for classes. Now I have a card table that I put in between my 2 cabinets and everything is at arms reach. I have been stamping every day. I LOVE IT! Stamping is so relaxing. I love to see a completed project from a blank piece of paper. there is truly nothing like it. I hope you will join me soon in my new creative space. Below is my list of September classes.
