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!

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!

Tic Tac holder


I love these little tic tac holders - I think they are so cute! I made some snowman ones back during Christmas and thought I'd give a more general theme a try. These make nice little trinket gifts.

Post it Clippy Board



This is a little Post It Note 'clippy board' that I made out of a 4x4 coaster and binder clip!

Bookmarks











This is 2 sets of bookmarks that I made.

3x3 card set
















Just a little 3x3 card set using the CTMH Delight in Everything!

Boom Di Ada cards











Here is a little set of cards that I made using CTMH Boom-Di-Ada papers. The stamped images are from the Gratitude stamp set. On the Thank You card I actually used 3 different stamps in 3 different colors and layered them. I did some folding, etc and used pop dots to give it dimension. On the second card I just used my favorite flower from the set, pop dots and put a little stickles in the center for some shimmer :) I really love these cards!! I think this might be my favorites that I've made.

Another Wall Hanging!
















This is another wall hanging that I did back at Christmas! This one was for my grandmother. It's a lot like the one that I made my mother in law, this one just has pics of my boys on it though.

I cannot for the life of me get my pics to load in the correct order - lol - sorry about that!

Cookie Sheet Magnetic Memo Board

I love these little cookie sheet memo boards! This is one that I made my friend for her birthday. I'm going to do this as a class at Almost Heaven Scrapbooking - probably in March.





Valentine Mailbox tin

This is the little Mailbox tin that I did for my class at Almost Heaven Scrapbooking. I thought it was cute!
I used the CTMH Stamp of the Month for January.

My 2 year old thought that the Stickles on the heart on the flag looked very intriguing and ofcourse had to touch it before it dried. I did eventually fix it but forgot to get a pic of the finished result.

Acordian Album Wall Hanging





























This is an Acordian Album Wall Hanging that I made my mil for Christmas. I was pretty happy with how it turned out! I used a CTMH 9x9 My Creations Accordian Album with the Constant Campaign Key to My Heart paper and stamps. This is a pic of the entire hanging - not the best pic but I couldn't really get a good one for some reason! You get the idea anyway.
I've also taken close up pics of each of the 'pages of the album. Naturally I'm having 'technical difficulties' and I cannot seem to get them to load to this post in the correct order! I'm sure you can figure it out though :)
