Label Tulip is having a pretty amazing sale right now!  I am definitely going to have to pick up a little something for myself.  How about you?

And here are two new layouts using Miss Crow's fabulous new kit, "Midnight Clear."

ChristmasJoy-sm,

It's so funny.  I didn't realize that I had used Joy in the title of both layouts until just now!  I guess I'm in a joyful frame of mind, eh?

I went to Manhattan's brand new scrapbook store, Portrait Bug, on Wednesday to drop off some of my class samples.  I snapped a few iphone photos:

The store is arranged by color, which I kind of, sort of, love.  While I was there, a number of people came in and they all had the same question, "What is this?"  Most didn't even get it once we said, "scrapbooking."  It's kind of the Wild Wild West you know?  Nobody gets it and they look at Stickles or acrylic stamps and can't figure out what in the world they're used for!  I'll try to take some real photos this weekend.

Thanks for stopping by!

    Ahhh – I wish I had taken photos of the store too – I love it! The people will get the hang of it, once they realize what they can do with all the products- they just have to look at all of your amazing artwork on the wall!

  • Love the colors of the kit!
    How can someone not get scrapbooking?!? Although I’m finding that since moving to the mid-west I’ve met more and more people that don’t scrapbook.
