Hey Shelby Twp....here I come

I am excited because Tracy the owner of Scrapbook Emporium ( http://www.thescrapbookemporium.com/ ) and I just finished the details of the new scraplift series to start at her store. In the class we will learn how to take a layout we love and twist it up to meet our needs. In the first we will make a journal to keep all of our favorite layouts or inspiration we find in magazines etc. We will also learn to make layouts using multiple photos and punches for those of us that can't seem to weed out any of those shots when scrapbooking.


So hello new friends, I can't wait to come and hang out. Lots of fun and prizes in every class! Oh yeah and hopefully you will learn something new and have a great time . Here is a preview of the first class.

WOW. December already. I cannot believe that when I looked on Tim's website I saw the 12 tags of christmas. I was thinking OMG it seems that we were just following this last year.

I just returned from a wonderful trip in Japan where I experienced many once in a life time events. We went to the worlds largest fish market, tokyo disney which is very different than orlando, and also a bar made of ice. I will post pictures soon.

12 days of Christmas

here is just a little peek at something I am putting together for a class......

VEGAS - 07 vs 08

equally as fun! seriously, who doesn't like vegas and how could you not have fun. We stayed at Mandalay Bay this time. The hotel was very nice, but a few too many babies and oldies for me. I do have to say the bonus of MB is the lazy river. there is something to be said for being able to float in a tube and drink while it is 85 and sunny. Even better is that out of no where I floated into my cousin and her husband. They were there for their wedding anniversary. We were laughing so hard because we latterly bump into each other at the most random places. back to vegas hotels...So far this year the palms has been my fav. We went to a new club called ROK it was pretty cool. Won some money playing blackjack and craps which is always good. However hard rock has the best people watching...

fun&tired

Per usual, vegas was fun but I am tired....pictures will be posted soon. I had a blast trying out my new camera....Look for a Vegas mini book class in the near future :)

Goin' to Sin City to Sin......

We I am off to Sin City again......This trip I am going with a group of newly acquainted friends. I am sure it will be a blast! I cannot wait to take pictures with my new camera. I am sure that I will resemble a silly tourist, but who cares! Look for photos soon....H
