Good Morning.  We find ourselves in Elk River, MN…my childhood home!  We are getting ready to paint my  Mom and Dad’s Kitchen Cabinets.  Exciting!  A day of painting.  We will stay until Thursday and then head down in to Minneapolis for the Bloomington, MN show.

Today’s card is one of our brand new Make n Takes.  We added four new ones this week so that is exciting too!

Stamps Used:  EE55 KB’s Primrose, Med; AA31 KB’s Mini Butterfly, D306 Thinking of you Smile, G304 Swiss Dot Mega Circle Scallop.

Enjoy your Day!

Heading Home!

Good Morning!  We are headed home today from West Springfield, MA where we had a fabulous time. Fun to see regulars…Nancy, Pat, Claudia, Helen, and so many more!  A super BIG thank you to Susan for helping with the Make n Takes !  She was a great help!

Today brings a simple card using our new stamps!  I’m hoping to get them on the website soon!

We only have one other show this month in Minneapolis, MN which is my home town.  I have a nephew graduating from high school Father’s day weekend.  Between his graduation and the Minneapolis show I’m going to paint my Mom and Dad’s kitchen cabinets. I love to paint!

We are off and running on this bright and beautiful spring day!  We are expecting temps around 55 degrees!

These calendar pages make me look in the discounted calendars to see if any would make good cards.  Can’t seem to find a Kraft one 😦

We changed the saying of this stamp a little from “the bright” to “a bright”.  Hopefully the new stamps will be on the website later this week.  Orders first 🙂  New Easter stamps will be showcased later this week.  Sold well in Allentown so that is always a good sign.

Good Evening!

Friendship, Hello

After 15 hours and 36 minutes in the truck we are finally save and sound at home!  So happy to no longer be in a moving vehicle.  Happy to have 44 degree weather in WI too!

Allentown PA certainly brighten our lives this weekend!  It was so fun to see those fun and fabulous friends that we have made there over the years.  Our Make n Take Tables were so much fun!

so I’m off to get a good nights sleep so that I can hit the road running in the morning.  Emails to answers, special orders to get out, internet orders to get out, wholesale orders to get out, paper work to do, toy haulers to clean up…I think we’ll be busy!
