Happy New Year!

We just celebrated the 'the most wonderful time of the year' and now it's time to say goodbye to the old and hello to the new.  I pray that the new year brings you happiness and peace.

Now - any good stamper knows that the new year doesn't really begin until the new Idea Book and Catalog comes out.  And guess what - we're saying 'goodbye' to the old - click here to download retired list and hello to a sneak peek of the new - click here for the Valentines Bundle from the 2009 IB & C.

Don't forget, on January 16 from 9:00am - 6:00pm and January 17 from 9:00am - 2:00pm, I will hold my semi-annual new Idea Book & Catalog Open House at my studio.  Plan to come!  The following week - January 22 and 23 from 9:00am - 6:00pm is my Card Class #1.  Check out my website for more details.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 

JOY!

What a wonderful time of the year to remember the joy of the Lord, and those blessings that help bring joy to our hearts.  I count each of you and the joyful laughter we share among those special blessings.  My precious family, amazing husband, a job I love, my totally fabulous staff (Charity, Dee Ann, and Dana, you ROCK!), and all of the relationships (my WONDERFUL downline), and the opportunities that God has sent my way are beyond all of my wildest dreams. What a joy this life is!  A true gift from God. But that real joy is only because of the Greatest Gift of all.

I pray that all of us will remember that "The spirit of joy and the spirit of hurry do not reside in the same house".  Let's all take the time to relax, slow down, enjoy some snowman soup,  and remember that Jesus is the reason for the season!  Spend precious time with those you love, and know that I love all of you!

Merry Christmas!

My Favorite Things ... family and friends!

I have just had such a wonderful weekend!  My son, daughter-in-law, and youngest granddaughter came to celebrate a late Thanksgiving, early birthdays (son and granddaughter both have birthdays this week) and Christmas!  And just like all of you, some of our FAVORITE THINGS are time with family and friends!

I am really looking forward to my last two stamping events of this year, the Holiday Boutique this week and next week Card Class # 3.  I hope to get my new class schedule posted later this week or early next week!!!

Be sure and make and take time during this busy holiday season to take the time to enjoy your favorite things!
