New Dies

We purchased a few new dies that are held behind the register. We can cut these for you. All you have to do is pick out your paper and for .25 we can cut these for you.

Here is a layout I did using the new ribbon circle die we just got in yesterday. I used doodlebug paper, basic grey paper, and making memories.


Bralapalooza

Here are the bra's for the bralapalooza that we have so far from this weekends scrap pink event. Thanks to all who came for the scrap pink weekend event. All we need you to do now is come in and vote for your favorite bra. Each $1 represents one vote and all the proceeds go to the Susan G. Kolman foundation.







They all did an awesome job with these.

Monday Sketch

Here is your Monday sketch. I have it done on time this time. We went to the lease this weekend and I took my scrapbook stuff with me. I was able to get 5 pages done. Here is one of them. The sketch is on page 66 in the page maps book.
I used making memories paper as well as pink paisley. The color on this picture is a little off. Both of those paper lines went well together for this page. The embellishments are also from making memories. I took these pictures of my middle child a couple of years ago at Landa park in New Braunfels.

Who is up for todays challenge? Happy Monday!!

Monday Sketch on Tuesday

Here is Monday's sketch on Tuesday. Gaelynn wanted to do this layout for this week. Thanks Gaelynn for doing it. This layout is from the page maps book on page 40.

I am scrapbooking at the store tomorrow so I will have several layouts for the Monday sketch for next week. I can't wait to scrapbook tomorrow. How about you?

Tim Holtz bump to top

I am bumping this to the top. We need more comments to show Tim how much we love him. I will give you a challenge. Mimi said that we need 100 comments before we will give a RAK away. I know we can do it because we are almost half way there. Wouldn't you love something that Tim has designed?

Hi my scrapping friends, it's your blog queen again. I want to let Tim know how much we love him so I need you to comment and all the comments will be put in a hat for a drawing. I have 3 to 4 RAK's to give a way. I have a necklace that I made at CHA with TIM's products and Tim even helped Angela and I make it. Mimi is also donating her necklace. Mimi is also donating the jewelry and frame she made at Creative Escape at Tim's class she attended. I will have pictures up soon of the RAK give a ways. Will that make you post a comment? I will give you a deadline soon. Comment away!!! your blog queen signing away for now. jennie

Changed comments


Ok all you lurkers, now is the time you can comment about Tim Holtz. I have temporarily took off the setting for comments. So what that mean is that you can post anonymously with out having to sign up for a blog account. We want to hear from you about having Tim Holtz come back to San Antonio to teach. We want to show him that he is loved here in San Antonio. What do they say about Texas, everythings big in TEXAS. Please everyone post a comment for Tim coming back here. Please, Please. When you comment anonymously let us know who you are if you want. TIM if you read this WE LOVE YOU!!! your blog queen Jennie (How is that?)

Tim Holtz


We have had quite a few people ask for Tim Holtz to come back to our store. Well Michelle and Mimi saw Tim at Creative Escape. He told them that he is setting up his schedule for 2009 and into 2010. We have asked him to come back to our store and teach. What we need is feedback from you to try to get him to come back to San Antonio. I am going to have a poll on the side of the blog as to what you would do to let Tim know that we want him to come back and teach. Also put a comment on the blog. We are hoping that with your help he will see that we want him to come back. Go to the poll and comment here. Should we all clog his email with us begging him to come? Should we send this link to the blog to show him that we want him to come back? What should we do?

We just wanted to let everyone know that if there is anything you see on this blog and you are unable to get to the store, just call us and for our out of towners, you can call us and we can pull what you need and we can mail it to you for a minimal fee.

Webster paper line

We received in today the new Webster paper line. We also received in TaDa paper line. I haven't uploaded that paper line yet. Here you will see the Webster paper and Dania and Lauren made some sample pages with this new paper. Great job girls!







I am liking the paper colors on this line of paper. I will have TaDa for you tomorrow to see. Have a good night.
