Thank you my lovelies!!

Here's a card from a Graphic 45 class I've been saving. I wanted to extend a big shout out to all my awesome friends/students both old and new for your friendship and support with my classes. I also appreciate the stamp sales very much. You know who you are and I THANK YOU ever so much girlfriends. You are simply the BEST. I appreciate each and every one of you including my newest online friends!! You make me smile even if I'm sad. : ) As most of you probably know by now I absolutely love Graphic 45, Cosmo Cricket, and Memory Box. I am also very fond of The Greeting Farm stamps and I love my Copics and Spica glitter pens just to name a few companies!! Let's no forget Prismacolor markers either. I can not wait to actually see and purchase some of the newest Graphic 45 papers and tags. I also want more Memory Box stamps. There's just no rest for the wicked and they don't call me Miss Wicked for nothing!! "Don't mess with the best cuz the best don't mess. Don't fool with the cool cuz the cool don't fool." Sorry I just couldn't resist saying this!! I am slap happy right about now and wide awake. Must have been the Starbucks iced coffe again!! Darn!! And the laptop? We won't go there right now. Back to square one again.

Anyway, I hope to mail this card to my middle sister next week. I've been saving it for awhile now. I especially love the button and I wish I had more of them. I plan to computer generate the sentiment for the inside liner and it will probably say something like "no Pitter, the belt does not make your butt look big. Actually the suit is quite slimming on you Pits." Sorry just a little inside joke about belts and what not. She's Pitter and I'm Patter!! Need I say more? We are extremely close and I miss her dearly. I am the oldest of three girls. We are Tami, Sami, and Cami just in case you did not know that interesting fact about me and my sisters. Hee hee!! OK too much information at this late hour!! My dial up Internet connection has been so slow tonight, "wicked slow" as they say in MA and NH. I just want to hang it up and go to bed but NO, I have work to get finished before I hit the hay. Sometimes I feel like hooking up my old PC but that would just be wrong with its external modem and big 'ole monitor!! Desperate times may just call for desperate measures next week. Lot's going on next week and I need my laptop to stay up and alive!! I can't believe it's already Labor Day weekend in one week. Geez where did the summer go? Do you have any special plans for the long weekend? I do and I can't wait until next Friday. Thursday was the first day of the MN State Fair and what a beautiful day it was indeed but a little humid. I'm not sure if I am going to the fair this year as its so expensive but I'd like to. I say that every year. I'd rather have art supplies!! : )

I've been in the vintage mode lately. I sorted through my Graphic 45 papers this week in an attempt to prepare for my upcoming fall classes. If you are local, I'd love for you to register for my Vintage Card class offered next month at both Anchor Papers. You will make five vintage cards using a wonderful assortment of Graphic 45 papers, beautiful trims and ribbons, buttons, and other *vintagy* embellishments. If you can't make it, I do offer all my classes to go. If you are interested just shoot me an email. I can also mail out the class kits. Have a great day friends. Thanks for stopping by and I do enjoy and appreciate your comments. I still have more stamps and other *treasures* to pull and price for a stamp and scrapbook sale this coming weekend at The Scrapbook Shop in Lexington. Tami
