Going Going Gone!

Things are going fast on the retirement sale!  So many things are on sale and you don't want to miss out on the deals!! Also, the items that are bundled in the current catalog will not be bundled in the new catalog if they are carried over. For example, maybe you have been thinking of getting the Fox and Friends punch and stamp set. They are bundled in the current catalog and are at 10% off, but in the new catalog, second year items wont be bundled, so the 10% savings will go away and the items are offered separately if they are carried over.  So go check out the bundles and see what you might be interested in.
And, I am amazed that the Basket Bunch is on the list of retiring!!!  And on sale!!!! I used that bundle like crazy, so be sure to grab that while you can.  But for that item, do the stamp and the dies separately because they are even less expensive that way with the current sale prices.   So much to look at right now, you wont want to miss out.  Contact me if you have any questions, or head on over to the Retirement sale and check it all out!!

New ~ My Memories Suite Version 8 just released

Hi Everyone!  My Memories has just released version 8 of their award winning digital scrapbooking program.  I downloaded it this weekend and the upgraded interface is really nice.  I haven't tried all the new features yet, but I did easily finish up some pages and send them off to be printed in time for Christmas! And, when I uploaded the new version I noticed that I had a free 6 X 6 photobook!  I went back to see what that was about and you also get a free month of the design club.  You can follow my link to the right of this blog to get right to the site and save $10 too!or use this link below

Fall 2016

I haven't shared a page in a while as I have been focusing on my Stampin' Up! business and learning how to make YouTube videos!  I made this page really quick today because a couple of the new girls in class noticed that they are not yet in our class scrapbook!  I can't have that now can I?  I will try to make pages more often so that when the kids look through the book they will remember the lessons we learned in class.  I truly believe that memory keeping helps the kids remember things and helps maintain friendships through shared experiences.  Often the kids who are now in the older classes will stop by and see the scrapbook and flip through it, remembering things from years ago.  They are part of it! Part of our church family.

Back to School 2016/17

Hi everyone!  Today was Back to school day for us! YAY!  and I already scrapped the pages for Jillian and Zachary because I was not feeling great so laying about was the thing to do today!
Parents don't get to go in to school on the first day, so these photos were from Meet the Teacher and school supply drop off yesterday.

I used the kit "Back We Go" from the lilypad.   The kit was on sale yesterday for $3.25.   The lilypad has sales every Wednesday called Something old something new and the items are 50% off!

A firm foundation

Hi Everyone,
Sharing another page from my pre-school class at church.  I like to make pages about what we did in class so that the kids can look back through the book and remember fun times.  Sometimes older kids who have moved up will flip through the book and see themselves.  Maybe it makes them feel like part of the whole? I don't know, but I think its nice to have the book in the room and it also helps me to remember what lessons I've done and with whom.  This was the lesson of the wise builders.  We made Lincoln log houses on a wrinkly towel for our 'sandy' soil and I read them the story from Matthew 7:24.  I think they liked the idea and we talked about how it applies to us as people. 
The page uses some really fun downloads called "life is good" from Quirky Heart.  I bought it from a site called the Lilypad. 

There is a bundle for this collection for $8.99 or you can choose just a few parts, like maybe the alphabet or the papers.  I bought the whole thing, I love the look and I know I will use it. 
here is a link
The Lilypad has specials on Wednesday's and new releases on Friday's  as well as a 'build your own collection' at the beginning of each month, so check the site out, its full of great downloads.




Thanks for stopping by!
