Kaitlyn and I took the 12 hour drive down there to stay with my brother and his girlfriend... we had a great time away (apart from the cold and the wind lol)... the drive there and back was long but we made it and im now back home to where i think the cold and the rain has followed me back lol sorry about that...

Last night was our Christmas in July party at Scraploot... it was such a great night with yummy food and a fun Kris Kringle (i got some of my fav lavender stuff)...i did get one page done but thats about all the rest of the night was spent chatting and laughing with my good friends....

Speaking of scraploot dont forget to go and check out the august class schedule there are some really awsome classes on this month including how to do lead light windows (or frames in this instance) it looks so good and im hoping to do that class myself...

ok off to clean up my scraproom and see if it motivates me to get anything done...

New month

Wow a new month already... i wish it would slow down i have so much to do but dont find the time to do it in.... if only i could get all these ideas out of my head and onto paper lol...

So a new month means a new challenge over at Dreamgirls... go and check out what team A did for the challenge gorgeous work and so much talent over there... go and have a look and join in everyone is welcome...

Not much else to show you.. the new july schedule for classes is up at Scraploot again some gorgeous pages to get you scrapping and some fun kids classes also...(my girl even designed one of them and she is so proud lol)....
