Sorry it's been so long!

Wow! It looks like it's been about a year since I last posted on my blog. I knew from the beginning that it would be difficult for me to remember to keep up with this! I'm turning over a new leaf though....and am going to try to be better :)
For right now I'm working on the final details to head out to my Cropping for a Cure 2010 weekend retreat in Flatwoods, WV next weekend! I'm really excited and looking forward to a GREAT time. We always have a great group of ladies join us.
I've already gotten the dates booked for a couple of our 2011 weekend retreats and am working on adding some more. I'll also be adding some 12 hour crops. I really enjoy the weekend retreats but I certainly miss those 12 hours one that we started with.
I've updated my Heavenly Scrapbooking Retreats website: www.heavenlyscrapbookingretreats.com with some more of the details for this coming weekend retreat. I've added some pics of a couple of classes that will be offered and some info about our vendors. As I finish up some of the projects I'm working on for the retreat, I'll take pics (ofcourse) and be sure to add them but I won't do it until after the retreat - don't want to spoil any surprises for the attendees :)

Little 2x3 1/2 " cards :)







I was in a swap where we were to make these cute little business card (2x3.5") sized cards. There are the 3 different ones that I made. These were a lot of fun and make a cute sized card!

2009 Scrap Pink Scrapbooking Retreat
October 9-11, 2009
Flatwoods Days Hotel and Conference Center

Heavenly Scrapbooking Retreats is teaming up with Almost Heaven Scrapbooking to bring you your 2009 Scrap Pink event! We are also pleased to announce that due to many requests, our Annual Scrap Pink event will be an all inclusive weekend retreat this year!!! Be sure to get your registration in as soon as possible, because spaces are limited. (Anyone who registers by September 4, 2009 will receive 10 extra entries into our door prize drawings!!)
Please join us for a weekend get away full of fun, food and prizes all while documenting your memories and raising money for a great cause! A portion of each participants registration will be submitted to Susan G. Komen for the cure of breast cancer.
We will be holding our Scrap Pink retreat at the Days Hotel / Flatwoods Conference Center, Flatwoods WV. The Days Hotel Flatwoods is a “5 Sunburst” Chairman’s award for excellence hotel and was recently recognized and awarded by Wyndham Worldwide – Days Inn Corporate as the cleanest property in the world! During any down time you can take a break from scrapping to rest in your spacious and comfortable room or take advantage of access to an indoor pool, hot tub, exercise facility and free wireless internet. Or spend some time at the nearby Flatwoods Factory outlet centers.
As always, we will offer plenty of cropping space with only 2 people per table. Cropping space will be assigned and we will place groups of people close to each other as requested on their registration forms. Cropping will be available around the clock (for you late nighters!) with the doors being locked when the last person leaves so you don’t have to worry about your valuable scrapping supplies inside while you sleep and rest up for the next day! Each person will receive a goody bag upon arrival and we will be doing LOTS of door prize drawings through out the weekend. In order to keep your energy up as you crop, we’ll be providing 2 continental breakfasts, 3 yummy snack breaks and a scrumptious dinner on Saturday evening. Lunch on Saturday will be on your own with several local restaurants to choose from such as: Visions Restaurant, Mad Annies Taver (on property), Arby’s, CafĂ© Cimino, China Buffet, KFC, McDonalds, Shoney’s, Subway, Taco Bell, Waffle Hut and Wendy’s.
Our packages are priced to offer the option of 2, 3 or 4 people per room and you designate on your registration whom you will be sharing a room with. If you prefer to not share a room with someone please contact us for package pricing on an individual room.
Watch for further details to come on ways to earn extra tickets into our door prize drawings, vendor information and other fun things being planned. We always have a great time at our all inclusive 12 hour crops and are really excited to offer a weekend getaway! We hope to see all of you there!
Registration packets and more detailed information are available via email or at Almost Heaven Scrapbooking. If you have any questions or need to contact us you may call or email Almost Heaven Scrapbooking, or to reach Carrie direct, email cropcarrie@suddenlink.net. Updates will also be posted to my blog as well as Almost Heaven Scrapbooking's blog (www.almostheavenscrapbooking.blogspot.com)

Shew - May must have been a busy month


Well, I notice that I haven't posted anything since mid April! Wow! Seems like I've been awfully busy to not have anything to show for it. Actually, I have done a couple of small projects but haven't had the chance to take pics of them to post!
So, I thought that I'd update you with this pic that I just downloaded from my camera of my Aidy baby :) I cannot believe that baby will be THREE this summer - how time flies. Here is a pic that I took of him when we were watching big brother Ian play his soccer game last saturday. I just love this for some reason......wild hair and all :)

Ribbon, ribbon, I love ribbon! lol


Well, a week or so ago, I coordinated a ribbon swap! I guess it's more of a ribbon buy in than a swap but bottom line is we all get LOTS of ribbon when it's done. The shipment came yesterday and now the cutting begins! lol
I haven't done much in the way of creating lately, so no posts since my dh bday card, so thought I'd post a pic of our ribbon spools! lol They're pretty too :)

Happy Birthday Mark!


Friday was my hubby's birthday and this is a little card that I made him!

6x6 layouts


This was the last round of the CTMH consultant swap that I've been making these items for.I've recently developed a fondness for this paper pack and thought it would make nice 6x6 layouts!
