[photopress:allabouttheberries.jpg,thumb,pp_image]  I had class last night.  Two at once, which worked out ok.  The Canvas class was fantastic!  The gals were great - so thanks ladies for a great time!  Everyone seemed to enjoy the projects and picked up a few new tips and tricks that hopefully they can try at home.  Anyway, it was awesome and dispite how tired I was (and still am) the class rocked!

Apparently it is a week for new things.  My Crocs are supposed to come today.  I’ll be excited when I finally see them.  I’ve been waiting so long now that the anticipation has really built up.  On top of that I got a new washer and dryer yesterday.  Mine were 6 years old, and frankly NEVER worked well.  For those of you that have been following my ranting lately you know that my dryer broke again a couple weeks ago.  Well, it died again on Mother’s Day, and that was the end of the line for me.  Been there, done that, and I won’t go down that repair road again.  So, that being said, I got a new set.  Woo Hoo, these babies work fantastic!!  I’m thrilled with them and glad I put an end to my Maytag Neptune Nightmare.

I’m also expecting a shipment today that will have the Zutter Bind-it-All System in it.  Jeannie really wanted one, so this one will be hers.  She has promised to share, but if I like it I imagine I’ll spring for one too.  I need to see the thing in person.  Supposedly it binds everything and that would be great for class projects.  The month of June I think I’ll have mostly mini album type of classes going on.  So that would work out well.  Hopefully I can get some samples done this week and wrap up the rest of the cards for class on the 22nd.

I did the featured layout today at the NSD Crop at Little Scrapbox.  I love the colors in this and those American Crafts Thinkers are awesome to use.  I think I used some on each layout that I did that day.  Easy application (not TOO sticky) and very versatile.  They are available in a ton of different materials, from felt to foam.  Check ‘en out if you get the chance!

Tonight I have a PTC volunteer appreciation thing that I was invited to.  Last year they gave us little sliver fish charms and we had refreshments and desserts.  I assume this year will be the same type of thing.  I’m looking forward to the one night a year someone thanks me, lol.

That about covers it.  I have a severe weather warning flashing on the screen in front of my face so I better go clear off the clothesline before I’m stuck in a downpour.  Happy Tuesday to you!
