What ya doing this Saturday?

How about a day of Mini-Albums? Looking for some great gift ideas? Then this is the day for you. What's even better? You can pick out your own papers AND the theme for these projects. So these could even be birthday presents or anniversary presents or whatever you want!! Come on in and join Tami. The first class starts at 9:30, next one is at 12:30 and the last is at 3 pm. For more information and to sign up, please call the store at 210-492-1984.

It's Here...

GRUNGEBOARD, that is!

If you think it's just more chipboard, check this out (it's so cool)...

Come on in for a variety of shapes, alphas, basic sheets, and in dots, swirls, lines, harlequin and more. How's that for variety? And they don't skimp on the number of pieces you get (each package is loaded). This is absolutely unlike any chipboard you've ever seen. It is flexible and bendable and will not tear or break. If you didn't watch the video...it really won't take long. It will explain everything and you will be amazed.

Also in from Tim... The Texture Hammer, Design Ruler and Fragments. Come on in to see for yourself and touch the samples!!

Oh the things you can do with this product line is endless!! Here are a few ideas to get you started. And if you haven't seen this yet...browse through this blog and you'll see.

You still have time to comment and get your name in the hat for an awesome RAK.

Ok...I have a few more blogs to share with you. I hope you take the time to check them out. ENJOY!

.

Life at the Cottage...I don't need to say a whole lot. She is simply AMAZING! She designs for Scrapologie and Prima. If you have a gazillion flowers like me, you'll get some great ideas on how to use them up quickly. Check her out!

.

Heather Bailey...one fabulous Fabric Designer. Plan to spend a while perusing, especially her studio! I mean it, check it out NOW.

Hello all...

.

You still have time to get your name in the hat for our Thanksgiving RAK.

.

It only takes a minute. You have until Monday to comment. So what are you waiting for?

.

I'm going to start something new (or try to anyway). Every now and then, I'm going to tell you about some of my favorite blogs (and there are a lot). I find so much inspiration and fun stuff through other blogs. I would only hope that you all can do the same. Here's a few for today:

.

First up is the MAKING MEMORIES blog, in case you haven't seen it before. They always have such great ideas, cool products to drool over, contests, you name it. Take a look...there is a yummy recipe posted today that looks sinful.

.

Another blog I just can't get enough of is TARA WHITNEY'S blog. I'm sure you've all heard of this incredible photographer, but just in case...she is an inspiration. She used to be a Garden Girl over at Two Peas and started in scrapbooking, but is now a very successful photographer. I strongly suggest checking her out for picture taking ideas. SHE IS GOOD!

.

Hoping you enjoy your day...off to grab a sweater :-)))

HAPPY HOUR + RAK

Hey gang...if you missed the Creative Cafe Happy Hour last Wednesday, then come on by this week. We're doing it every Wednesday until further notice. Morning happy hour is from 11-12 and the evening happy hour is from 7-8 pm. This week I got to help with the projects. The first is a Thanksgiving tag. You can use it for a place setting, on a gift, as a decoration of some sort, whatever you want!! The price will be approx. $2.75. The Creative Cafe line has so many colorful tags and in so many sizes. You can really do so many things with them!!

Another project you can make is this 1-page layout using lots of fun ribbon, buttons, chipboard, brads, felt words and cool lined paper. Now remember...if you want to come participate in the Happy Hour, you are welcome to make changes to the projects being offered. You can add or subtract or change up colors if you want. This is meant to be fun and creative. You only pay for the product that you use. This layout will cost around $6. Please join us or at least stop in and take a look.

Check out my last post regarding the RAK we're doing right now. You can't say you never win anything if you don't try!!

RAK TIME

Thanksgiving is just around the corner, so why not share some of your fondest Thanksgiving memories? Do you have a funny story from childhood? Have you gone somewhere special? Do you cook for 50 family members? How about a comment on what you are thankful for? Anything will do as long as it has something to do with Thanksgiving!!

You have one whole week to leave a comment regarding Thanksgiving and then we'll choose a winner on Monday the 19th. Come on...you know you can do it! In a few days I'll let you know what the RAK will be. Stay tuned...

Fun was had by all...

Yes...this is a real cake. It tasted just as good as it looked!!

Thank you everyone for coming out and making this day so special. We appreciate your business and continued support!!
