Christy's Last Day

We're sad to say that Christy will be moving on to greater things as of today. She did a farewell lei class today during lunch. Josh is still around and preparing for St. Patty's Day projects next week. So we look forward to seeing that.

Happy Girls Day!

Hina matsuri! We're making these today! So come on by. Sizzix pillow box, dandelion design - maddy and kokeshi doll stamps.

Made the one on the left for a friend who's aLways sharing with me new card making ideas.

 I think we might just give the one on the right away as a prize for the March card contest as a runner up prize....

Scrapper's Jam & a Tsunami !?!

Hey all, Tsunami warning - did anyone get any cool pictures?

We were at the Scrapper's Jam with all the Tsunami Scrapbookers! We had lots of fun, hearing the updates on from the radio as well as the phone calls from those that didn't make it.

Check out the make 'n takes that we did at the Jam.

Here's Gloria from Ben Franklin-Pearl City and Joy. My picture of Joy's favor didn't come out to clear. So check it out on her blog: joyofcrafting.blogspot.com

Here's Christy's Easter Bunny Card.

Cute, yeah!


(Some of you might have noticed the cards, thanks for being part of our CitC R&D team in preparation for the Jam.)

March Card Contest

Hey Card Makers! Yes, you...we're changing the card making contest a little more challenging for you all. We recently got in Core Essential Paper and many of you got some from us. Thought that since many of you have this paper, lets use some of it to make an Easter card for this month's card contest. I know, I know, Easter is in April, but it's the first weekend....it's never too early.
March Card Contest Information:
1) Size: no larger than a 5"x7" card.
2) Theme: Easter - need to utilize/incorporate at least 2 different colors of Core Essential paper.
3) 75% of product used is purchases from Crafts in the City.
Contest will run from March 15-19 (no extension). Prize for the winner will be an Ink 'n Stamp set.

Some suggestions were made, such that we are trying to take those to heart. Keep you posted. Don't forget to enter as well as come in to vote (March 22-26) for your favorite card.
