Love Is In the AIR!!

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone. Hope you have a great day.

Thanks to all the ladies that attended our weekend Love is in the Air Workshop. WOW, what a great day. Hope you enjoyed the layouts. Cheryl and I certainly enjoyed making them and presenting them. I have attached photos of the layouts we made and a couple of shots from the day as well.

Hope you can make it out next month to our "Food" Themed workshop. We will be featuring the new paper from Graphic 45.

What Can I say Ladies!!! Another Fabulous Card Workshop!!!!

Thank you to all of you who attended our last Card Workshop. What a great day!! We do hope you enjoy your cards and yes, you can send them and give them to people. Take a digital photo of the card and start a file of all the cards you have made and send the card. That is why you made it. And you can make it again because you now have a duplicate copy of that card in your photos on your computer. So do not forget to back up your photos on a CD, memory card or USB stick so you will always have it.

Good work Ladies!! Stay tuned for future card workshops. In fact, we have added a Card Workshop each month so check back often.
