Some ladies hard at play...


I love to see the studio full of people crafting. It's always a fun time, and we always learn from each other. Join us for a monthly club each Tuesday and Thursday, or Saturday Stamping, or Scrapbooking, or Craft Day. So much to choose from and so many great instructors. Call for more info. 490 4790
Check out the March calendar, which will be posted by tomorrow on the web site. This month I will send out a copy via e-mail, as soon as I go in tomorrow morning. Hope to see you soon.

M&T March 1st. week


This is the M&T for this week. From tomorrow until Friday evening, you can come in and make this card for $3.00 (If you make 2, it's $5.00 for both).
Some people don't celebrate much for St. Patty's Day, but if you love cards it's another reason to send one. Go green !!!
The faux ribbon stamp, from Stampendous, arrives tomorrow with all the other goodies to take to Crop for Cure. We sell out of these stamps every time we order them in. Yes the ribbon is a stamped image. This time I roughed the edges a bit more, to make it look even more realistic.
This stamps is for everyone who does not like to tie bows, and for those who like a rest from it too. Very smart stamp..wish I had thought of it!
Jillibean paper was also used, and a M. S. clover punch.

Repeat of Black Lace class on March 19th.


The Black Lace Card Class filled up quickly and several ladies have asked me to repeat it. So, we looked at March and decided on Saturday the 19th. at 1:00 pm. Cost is $17.00 and we limit the class size, so register early.
Here are the cards again.
A Kaisercraft stamp set, "Tea With Elsie", is used. They are currently on backorder, but we have 8 more reserved for us.

Crop For Cure March 5th.



The Crop For Cure event is coming up again. We have gotten in lots of fun things for that, and some we have already sold-so we need to place another order before that date. The Loralie stamps are going like mad, with her new designs for stampers and scrappers specifically.
With their lowered prices, it's a steel.
If you have been into MTTC lately, you may have noticed my mess (and the AccuCut hidden under wraps), while we prepare for the Crop for Cure again.
We will be offering these kits as class. I wish there were enough time to make one for everyone, but alas we need to sleep and eat too. So, get ready for first thing Saturday am to register to take the class at Crop For Cure. (If any are left, we will sell at MTTC after that).
Here is a sneak peek of both, with photos in them.
Hope to see you there soon.

M&T week of Feb. 22nd.


This week's M&T is a simple design that I borrowed. (As soon as I find my paper again, I can give that person credit.)
Cost is $2.00
Meanwhile, I actually have the M&T ready to post, so wanted to get it up now. We have more classes to post, so I figured I could get them out by Tuesday and find the sheet by then.
As always the photo is a bit darker than the actual color. The green looking background is actually a very light shade. Everyone who comes in to do the M&Ts always comment , "that is much nicer in person". I am hoping to get lights to help with photo shooting. I am hoping for lots of things, but lottery is unobtainable too!

We also finished a long exciting day at Crop for the Cure, at the 4H Center last night. I am still looking for my camera, so we can share those photos too.
Now it's on to the St. John's Ladies Night Out, today.

Enjoy this lovely weather.

M&T for week of Feb. 14th.


Ever had "designer block"? Sometimes you have to scratch what you are designing and go with something else. I wanted to use a certain paper, but it wasn't working out, so today I put it away and started fresh.
I do remember my inspiration came from Melissa Cash's card, (from a Gina K gallery). Since we can't sell Gina K, (darn it all), I used the layout she had and got out a Flourishes stamp. Flourishes are one of my favs anyway and of course I like to color.
A Wreath for All Seasons was used and colored with COPICs. I am getting a little better too.
Psst...(We have COPIC class coming up in March). I also used the Scor Buddy and Liquid Pearls in all 3 colors.
When I finished the yellow card, I thought of all the spring colored ribbon stash I am hoarding- oh, holding I mean....So I decided to do 2 more colors. You can make just one color or make all three this week. Cost is $3.00 and they will be available until Friday night to make. (Remember we are closed on Saturday).
