A GREAT Start on the Week

Hello Bloggers!!  It's Monday once again and already the 7th of November.  The rest of the year is going faster than it needs to go.  With Thanksgiving just around the corner, I am looking forward to celebrating with my family.  In years past, I opted to celebrate alone (by choice) but now that I have every day off, seems only the right thing to do.  Do not need that "me" day like in the past.  Every day is a "me" day.  I hope your plans are shaping up and that this holiday will be all that you want it to be.  Just remember to keep it fun.

Another great demo today at Mimi's Crop Circle in Burien, WA.  Vicki Chow conducted the demo so I was able to participate as a "student".  It was loads of fun.  Mimi's is a HUGE scrapbooking store located in Burien that caters to the Scrapbooker but are expanding into rubber stamping as well.  It's a GREAT store and definitely worth a visit.  I have sort of adopted it and they have welcomed me with open arms.  It's a great place to hang out, play a little, and feel like a part of something.  Let me know that you are stopping in for a visit and I'll do my best to be there and visit with you also.  This evening following the demo, 4 of us headed out for dinner together.  Now how many times can you do that from a scrapbook or rubber stamp store.  It was total fun!!

Just in case you are interested, there is still room in the 40/40 Holiday Card Making Day at Mimi's this coming Saturday.  I will be one of the instructors with 10 designs that I have contributed towards the class.  I'd love to see some of you, so, if you are so inclined, do give Mimi's a call.  At only $40.00 for 40 cards, that makes them only $1.00 each.  Where else could you get your Christmas cards made for only $1.00 each and well before Thanksgiving.  Now that is planning.  Here are the details.

Time:  10:00 am until finish

Where:  Mimi's Crop Circle, 152 SW 152nd Street, Burien, WA ((206) 838-7658)

Details:   The 40/40 Holiday card making day is only one week away and there are still openings!! Come join us for a full day of fun, camaraderie, and a 40 project making day for only $40.00 and get all your Christmas cards done!! There are 4 instructors who have all contributed their talent to make this a totally awesome day. I will be one of the instructors and look forward to seeing many of you. Do join us!! Call Mimi's today (206) 838-7658.

I hope this blog finds you all well.  I get such a kick out of bumping into some of you on the streets of West Seattle.  It's always fun to reconnect even for just a couple of minutes.  I will blog again soon.  I actually like blogging.  It's sort of a fun outlet for just "stuff".  If you have a favorite blog (besides mine of course - hee hee) let me know.  I'd love to check it out.

Until the next time...... Hugs to All - Doris

Here is the card that we made today at Vicki's demo.  It was a resist technique where we embossed an entire background of snowflakes (all unmounted) on a curved acrylic block that was then stamped with Versamark.  Three different ink colors were applied.  It was fun and beautiful.  Now I have my first Christmas card already made.  Imagine that!!
