I have some Design Team work to get done this weekend. My Team KNK Project is due the end of the month and I have some new TOP SECRET Bazzill products to prepare for July CHA.
As if I weren’t busy enough, I’m doing the Operation Write Home Memorial Day Blog Hop.
Everything will be fun…until all these deadlines hit!
I’ve decided that every Friday I’m going to post a cute little dog picture…just because they make me happy! Hope you enjoy them too!
Jamie and I are already gearing up for our July 12 Scrappa-GoGo class. We are doing a Christmas in July Card Class!
ETC has it’s popular Scrappin’ Sampler this weekend so I made up these little class teasers for the event. If you sign-up for our class WHILE AT ETC this Saturday (5/19) you will save 15% off the $18 fee. Or you can sign-up anytime on line and save 10% on the $18 Class Fee:
I hope that you will join us…if you like the teasers you will LOVE the CARDS. They will all have a fabric accent — but no sewing is involved! Promise. Go ahead…sign-up! We will have FUN!!!
Yesterday my sweet hubby turned 40! Birthday traditions for us include movies and Joe Johnston’s Gilbert dining trifecta {Joe’s Farm Grill, Liberty Market and Joe’s Real BBQ.} YUM!
First Stop: Joe’s Farm Grill
Next Stop: Avengers in 3D
BTW: Free popcorn on your Bday @ Harkins
{cute couple}
Packed theatre - NOT!
Next stop: Lunch at Liberty Market
To bad the sign doesn't say 40! 
Then…another movie (Dark Shadows) and dinner at Joe’s BBQ:
Lastly: Very tired OLD MAN!
Looking forward to a great 3-day weekend!
Saturday I’ll be heading to my BFF’s crop in Scottsdale and carpooling with my Bestie. Sunday will be for rest and chores. Taking Monday off to celebrate my hubby’s 40th Birthday. Hope you weekend will be as wonderful as mine!

I work a “superhero” know as “Batman” who is collecting tin cans for an art project.
He had this very unattractive sign hanging over a box for his can collection. That sad sign was making me sad…so I had to make him a new one.
Or do I??? Can you believe that it’s been eleven days since I have updated my blog? That’s some kind of little record for me! Why? Working full-time now, working on top-secret Design Team projects in the evening and on the weekends, managing a happy little die cut business, teaching at ETC, and oh yes, there are Chad, Latte and Biscotti (my 3 needy guys) who want their share of my attention. Plus, {being honest here} there have been a few times when I said YES and I should have said NO.
In the meanwhile, Jamie and I are teaming up for just one class over the summer: Scrappa-GoGo on Thursday July 12. We have a morning and an evening class available: 10:30 to 12PM or 6:30 to 8:30PM.
