CHA

Ladies,

Tammy and I are back from CHA, and am I ever stoked! LOTS of gorgeous new products, ideas, tools, etc. Woo HOO! Immediately on order are some awesomely awesome 3 ring binder scrapbooks by Making Memories, as well as a gorgeous winter paper and embellishment collection, the new 8 in 1 punches, etc.. I will blog about these punches more when them come in, but I'm thinking that if you don't have them, you are going to want them! They cut a 12 X 12 (or other sizes of papers) into different shapes with punched out borders along the shapes in 8 easy punches! KEWL BEANS!!!!

Also, lots of GORGEOUS new ribbons on the way from May Arts. Some are vintage, some wedding, some shabby sheek, some whimsical, but ALL are adorable...can't wait!

Also, I am pre-ordering the new Graphic 45 "ABC Primer" and "Christmas Emporium" lines that are just now being released. We will have them as soon as they are available. Can't wait to show you all I learned in upcoming fall classes, etc. Bo Bunny's "Father Christmas" will be here as soon as it is released.

Also, we learned some AWESOME techniques for using the Spellbinder dies and embossing tools. FUN!

Happy Scrappin', and remember to turn the A/C on high!!!!

CHA UPDATE

Bev checked in earlier today & is excited about all of the new things being shown at CHA.

Update on Kate's Husband, Steve

Ladies,

Kate's husband is doing better, and may be able to come home from the hospital today or in the next few days. Thank you SO much for all your prayers. Also, please pray that they discover why this occurred, and how to keep it from recurring.

Prayers Still Needed

Kate's husband, Steve, is doing better in one area, but is now heading deeper into the woods in another area. Please renew your efforts in prayer for him, and for Kate as she deals with everything associated with his medical issues.

We will post this again on the September calendar of events, but the class is already starting to fill up! Yay!
