Community Yard Sale Next Weekend

When: March 29th
Starts at: 8am.
Where: It is between the Millenium Strip Club and the Purple Iris, in a large development on Meteor Drive.

Don't let the location full ya' - It is a nice subdivision. But hey, if you're looking four 4 inch acrylic high heels with lights in 'em, you could always make a pit stop at the strip club. :)

Thank you, Other Becky, for the heads up on this one.

Flowers From Home Page


This great paper came from WallyWorld! If you find cute paper there, buy it. My experience is that the cute paper at WallyWorld sells out quickly and then all of the ugly stuff hangs around for months and months. The layout is about a bouquet of roses that my family sent to me when I won the A.C.E. Award. The tiny flower brads are from Making Memories. The stickers and Tag are things that I have had FOREVER (like years!). The turquoise carstock is Stampin' Up. This was the first time that I used a Crop-A-Dile. What an incredible tool! I can't belive I waited so long to get one.

HappyScrappers Was Great Fun






Our March meeting was very fun. The goodie bags this month were actually a small Easter basket with four eggs filled with Prima flowers, ribbon, brads, and buttons. Veronica came with Cameron and we just couldn't get enough of him and his incredibly cute head of hair.

Carolyn made some great cards with her scallop punch and paint chips. Carrie did an awesome job of scraplifting a card with lots of ribbon. Jessica had us all in stitches over her "Midget Stripper" Layout. She titled it, "The Devil Made Me Do It." OtherBecky was able to finish several pages including her new ultrasound picture of her baby BOY! I finished one card, one 12x12 page and six 8x8 pages in my family camping album.

Our next meeting will be April 26th. Please save the date. This is going to be an especially fun meeting that you won't want to miss!
