Top of the morning to you. My sister made me this adorable Easter card using a blue Memory Box notecard, a Martha Stewart flower and a grass sticker. I sent her a bunch of cuttlebugged papers and she loves making quick cards with them. She bought this new stamp and colored it with colored pencils. She loves stickles just like her big sis me. Sami never buys sentiments. Inside she hand-wrote Hoppity Easter!! I hope you all have a great week. Thanks for checking in and I apoligize for my post yesterday. Mrs. Anonymous was trying to help me and I thought someone was picking on me. Just call me Miss Touchy!! I've been a little on edge lately and rather tense for about a week now. Hopefully things will look up this week and sunshine will come to MN. I still have not started my taxes. I know I've said it before but I will say it again, I will be doing a free Make and Take at Smudges on Sat. from noon to 3pm. Tami

Interesting find on AOL...I'm guilty on Facebook!!
Constant, lame status updates
"If you're a constant status updater on Twitter, Facebook, or IM, please keep things interesting. For example, if you must let everyone know that you're at the supermarket, at least spice it up with a joke about the shopping cart with one bad wheel, okay? If not, you'll wind up with friends who simply don't care about what's going on with you."
I will try and spice things up a bit hee hee on Facebook!! Here's something that totally bugs me when I occasionally go to the Mall of America!! I can not stand when people working the kiosks come at you full speed ahead. They practically mow you down trying to get you to step into their small territory. No you creep, I do not want you touching my hair with your expensive hair curler that has been used on all walks of life. Yuck!! Go away. If I am interested I will come to you and inquire. It really bugs me. Sorry to vent. I think its tacky too!! Just about as tacky as *fake desserts* on a dessert tray at a restaurant. How sad!!

I had a great day today away from stamping and its just what I needed!! I went to the Mall of America this afternoon just because I felt like going. It was fun to look around a bit and I managed to stay out of Archiver's. I just picked up a coffee and a few little treats for me. Nothing like a little retail therapy to make a girl feel better.
I plan to post a Memory Box card soon but it probably won't be until Friday nite as I'm spending the day with a friend tomorrow in St. Paul. I can hardly wait to go! I haven't started my taxes yet. Thanks for stopping by. Tami

Butterfly...fly fly fly!!

Hi again. Here's my Memory Box card using my new butterfly punch by EK Success as promised. I need to "stickle up" the butterflies and get this card ready for Lauri my new stampy friend!! I am still recovering from my five classes last week. Whew...it was a whirlwind but so fun!! I used little pearls from Memory Box as butterfly heads. Thanks for stopping by. Another busy week in store. The *dreaded* taxes will just have to wait until the weekend. I've got places to go and people to see. Stamping related activities are just more important than Uncle Sam!! Tick tock!! HEE HEE. Tami :') Peace out!!

New Classes I just posted for April
Hello dear friends.
I just updated my April Class schedule. All my classes are $25 and are a minimum of four cards and two hours in duration. Sometimes I have a "bonus card" as time permits. Advance registration and prepayment is greatly appreciated. You may order any class "to go" by contacting me prior to the class via email. Please bring your basic stamping kit to class.
A BIG thanks to all the lovely women that attended my class(s)this month. I really appreciate your support, business, and friendship. We always have a good time in my classes!! I've met a lot of new people in March and have made lots of new friends. Stamping is suppose to be fun and that's the way it should be all the time. Its a time for sharing your goods and art, learning new tips and techniques, and meeting other stampers. I love to learn from other people and bounce ideas off of other stampers. Everyone has something great to offer. I have wonderful people in my life and I am so greatful. Thanks so much my friends.
Tami :]
PS Now its time for the dreaded bills, Monday errands, lots of phone calls, class boards, and gathering *stuff* for my taxes. YUCK! Then there's laundry, housework, a free Make and Take at Smudges on Wed. from 12pm-3pm. (NO, its NO April fool's joke) and a couple lunch dates this week. I can hardly wait until Wed. I do plan to post a card tomorrow morning so please check back. Comments are always nice....HINT HINT!! :-] I hope you have a great week filled with sunshine.

Memory Box here I come!!!
Top of the morning to you and happy spring. Sorry I've been such a bad blogger but the truth is I've been up to my eyeballs in class preparations and teaching too. I've already taught three classes this week. I'm currently on a Memory Box marathon so I thought I'd post a card I'm teaching on Sat. at Caribou Coffee in Little Canada. I still have openings and will be selling any leftover class kits as a "class to go." Why, because I must. Short and sweet. The cards are really nice if I must say so. You know its all in the details! Hee hee. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Memory Box. No other company will ever come close to Dave and all his beautiful papers, images, and his colored pencil skills. I wish he would come to MN and teach his fans. Plus Dave is always so nice. I love visiting his blog and all the other new MB blogs. Total eye candy for sure!! I absolutely love teaching with his stamps. I hope you like this card. It really is beautiful and springy if you could only see it in person. I used auto enhance after I scanned it and cropped it. Remember I am still a beginner. Jan my friend offered to loan me "Blogging for Dummies" and I can't wait to read the book but that's aftef I get the dreaded taxes done. Back to my card. I used some new Memory Box bling including little green rhinestones and pearls. I love the colors Dave names his products. He's a class act for sure!! I hate to cut up his beautiful paper. I cringe at my cutter when I have to do it. I wish I could frame several of his 6 x 6" papers. Let me know if you'd like to order my Memory Box Spring card class "to go" via email. Thanks for stopping by. I also have a COPIC class on Sunday at Lunds and I'm still taking signups. Its a four hour class!! Well its time for bed as I've been working all through the night. Have a great day. I send you BIG stamping hugs. PS Oh can someone please tell me what "organic stamps" are? What is this stamping world coming to? I'm really puzzled by this one!!!?? I'd also like to thank all the wonderful people that recently took my COPIC classes at Anchor Paper and my Spring card classes at Smudges. I am so happy to be back teaching at Anchor Paper two stores). I've met lots of new people lately and I'm super excited as I'm such a people person. BYE BYE sugar pies!! Tami :-]
