The August Card Class is being held August 28^th. Class will start at 7pm and run until 9pm or earlier depending how speedy you are feeling that evening.

The class format will be a little different for the month of August. Usually we do 12 cards including envelopes and sample raffle at the end of class. In August we will be doing 12, however you will go home with 2 extra card kits which you can take with you or complete in class as time allows. I had been offering this as an early registration bonus, but due to the number of people asking for the extras I decided to offer them to everyone. The cost is the usual $20.00 and the cancellation window is 24 hours.

I am closing off registration on August 23rd, so any registrations must be in to me by the end of the day on the 23rd. As always if you can’t make class and you would like a kit, those are also available if you register for them in advance.

If you are interested in registering for the class please email me and let me know and I’ll get you on the list! Or, as an alternative you can call me at 586-465-5572. As always, if you know anyone else that may enjoy this class, please feel free to pass on the information!

If you need directions or further information on Scrap Palace of Romeo just let me know, or you can check their website at http://www.scrappalace.com.

I’ve been submitting work lately, layouts, cards and other projects.  Well I got an email this morning from Ready! Set! Create! and they picked up my Travel Tin for publication in there October/November 2007 Issue.  How cool is that?  I so needed something exciting today to wake me up.  I was up all night with Shelby and Dylan decided to join us on and off the entire time too.  I got them both to bed early this morning… around 4:30am.  Ack!  But hey, the excitment has woken me up today, so I’ve got a little burst of energy right now.  Maybe I’ll scrap while the kids are still sleeping!

Today I have dinner plans with Michelle and Jeanne.  It’s a mini celebration of sorts for Michelle’s birthday.  She doesn’t like hoopla so I’ll refrain from informing the restaurant about her special day.  But holy cow I want to tell them, lol.  Anyway, we are going to Texas Roadhouse.  It will be nice to have a girls only meal, so I’m looking forward to it.  Even if I’m going to be half asleep by then.  Who am I kidding, I’m going to be totally unconscious with my face it my food.

I did about 15-20 cards last night while I sat here, hiding out.  I had a horrific kid day and once Denny got home I had to hide out for a bit.  Anyway I used a bunch of scraps and old “extras” from past card classes.  I did have some kids left from last time that I put together also.  If anyone wants them, I’ve completed them for you and they are only $1.75 each and just regular postage rates for me to send them to you.  Just drop me a line, or check out the store tab on top of the page here as I hope to get them posted there today.

It’s raining here today and I have to say I’m loving it.  I really like a good thunder storm so I hope it starts to come down a little harder.  I find it so relaxing and it is even better if I’m in my office/scrap room with a window open next to the pond listening to the waterfall.  On a side note one of my water lilies finally bloomed the other day.  We have so many trees giant that they don’t get much light making it very difficult to get them to bloom.

Here is a little daily inspiration.  I finished this up yesterday.  Enjoy!
