tsmack — Mon, 04 Aug 2008 04:54:33 GMT

I am going to this really cool event in Saskatoon in October. It is a pre-event for the Crop and Cruise. It is an all day crop 9am to Midnight. There are workshops and I want to take some, but can't decide which. Any thoughts? I know I want to take the layout class with Leica Forrest. But I am not sure whether to take both Tilano classes, or both Prima, or one of both and if so which ones. I need to register on Wednesday and can't make up my mind!!!

I have been entering contests for years and never won anything (except for a fondue pot at Country Grocer at Valleyview!).

support — Sun, 18 May 2008 22:00:22 GMT

Was here at the store untill 2:15 am on Saturday night (Sunday Morning). Got alot accomplished. I hope everyone enjoys the new Purple paint with Black Polka-dots. I alos think the new concept of cram all the stuff into one corner, and let the customers sort it out for themselves will also be a big hit.

Hello Ladies. Hope that this day fines you all well. I a sitting here waiting fot the sun that was promised us. I hope that it will break through the clouds soon. Does anyone have any big plans for the long weekend. I will be sitting at home getting our roof done. DH has to work it , and I am hoping that someone may want to take my kids for the weekend ( any takers ). I am hoping to maybe hook up with a friend on Sunday so here is hoping that the weather will hold.

Has anyone scrapped this weekend?

wendy — Sun, 18 May 2008 19:23:45 GMT

I've been working on Thank You cards for a friend of mine's daughter. She is graduating this year and part of her gift is thank you cards. I'm also still working on my MIL's mother's day gift...I made her a bunch of cards.

I also finished a mini album made from coasters! Whew...it's still early on Sunday...I'm hoping to get even more done!
