Fab Finds #1

Fabulous Finds. I thought I share a great find or my favorite find at the present time! Today it is the FISKARS Border punch. This one is the threading water. They have them at Porters Craft store for $14.99. They also sale FISKARS at Wal-mart, JoAnns, Roberts and Michael's. I found this one at Michael's. I used a 40% coupon that I printed off JoAnns e-mail that I got sent to me. Michael's Matches coupons and JoAnns did not have the "threading water" one that I have so desperately wanted! I am now wanting most of the border punches. Martha Stewart also has border punches. I am excited to use this, I might find myself using it too much!!

Scrap Star

I've had this star for a while now, I've finally put some photos and paper on it to make it a cute scrappy' star. I need a title, any suggestions? I was thinking our last name on it in black somewhere, or FAMILY?

Great Weekend

Girls I had an awesome weekend. A big Thanks to Summer for the House. I am already looking forward to June!!

Anyone who wants the chicken salad recipe its real simple

1 can of Chicken. ( I used the ones from Sam's club, Members Mark brand)
1/2 cup of Plain Yogurt
1/2 cup of MAYO (do not use miracle whip!)
1 tsp of Mustard
Celery
Grapes
Cashews

Mix yogurt, mayo and mustard together, add chicken, celery, grapes and Cashews. I let it sit in the fridge for a while, and if it is too dry add more yogurt and mayo. (use even amounts of both.) Taste to test if it is too dry, you'll know!

Thanks again. Hey everyone should post some of the layouts that we did over the retreat!

Update on Scrap Exchange.

3 people are doing the scrap exchange so far. If you still want to do it let us know ASAP. I hope everyone has girls, I did a girl page! If you do not have girls and still want to do a page let me know and I can do a boy one instead for you. Summer, Kali, and Me (Shara) are the only ones that have responded. Here is a sneak peak of my paper, and the layout of one side.


Hope this inspires you to all join! We want as many as we can, then we will all have a lot of scrap pages to show off.

Hi everyone! The March packets will be $13.00 and will be boy-themed. If you wish to buy the flexi-labels or coordinating stickers to use on the remainder of your paper just let me know in your comment when you confirm. I will knock off the shipping charge on the labels and stickers so they will be $4.19 (labels) and $5.25 (stickers). Also, like Summer said, if there is anything else you want to order leave it on your post or email me at kalijolove@yahoo.com and I will get in touch with you. And remember, when you confirm, you are responsible for whatever you have ordered or the shipping charge for me to return it. Thanks! Look forward to seeing you at the retreat!

Scrap Exchange

Is anyone up for a scrap exchange? Everyone makes the same layout for all the other ladies in the group. We can have them all ready for the weekend we go scrap. It would need to be a two 12X12 layout, and pick a theme that everyone could use. (IE if everyone has boys, maybe a nice boy layout, a holiday layout, or a camping one.) These can include different stickers, stamps, other embellishments that work with your layout. If anyone is interested let everyone know so we can have them all ready for the retreat! We can decide if we want to get them all ready for everyone to put together up there or we can have them pre-made and take them. Any suggestions?
