Guess who Santa!

On Thanksgiving we took Biscotti to see Santa at Scrapbooks, Etc. Do you think that Santa was uncomfortable that they both wore the same thing?!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Tomorrow is the big day!

Yesterday I was scrambling to get some unique products for upcoming classes that are not generally available in quantities I need at scrapbooking stores. So, I called upon Jenn over at Just4FunCrafts for yet another order! I just can't say enough wonderful things about Jenn and the amazing customer service I have received from her over the past few years. Sometimes when I'm in a "creating frenzy," I just don't think about the big picture (like where am I going to get 50 red safety pens, 25 purple spiral fasteners and 8 yards of Robin Egg Blue Waxed Linen).

Jenn, the owner and operator of Just4FunCrafts has gone above and beyond to serve and accommodate me time and time again. I just wanted to take a few moments to share a great on-line store with you and Thank Jenn for taking such good care of me over the past few years. Please visit her blog (she is a true artist): http://just4funcrafts.blogspot.com/ and her on-line store: Just4FunCrafts. While you are there - place an order and tell her Susan from MSD (Master Scrapbook Designs) sent you! You'll be happy that you did!

Page of the Week

I almost forgot...this week is my layout "Best of Friends" at Scrapbooks, Etc. Visit the store if you'd like to purchase this page kit ($4.25).

Back by popular demand...

...is my December Scrap-a-Latte Purse Calendar Class! The sample will go on display this Friday but I am posting a sneak peak for you today! This class is a month away and is already two thirds full. Wow...you guys are amazing. I appreciate each and everyone of you and am so flattered - thank you! Let this post serve as your official warning - call Scrapbooks, Etc. at 480-854-2303 to sign-up ASAP! This class is on Saturday, 12/12 from 1 to 3:30 PM.

Kits can be shipped or picked up at Scrapbooks, Etc. The first wave of kits will be available next week.

Mini me...

This is what I need: a mini me to take some of the work load! Hee hee...

Seriously, my BFF Sindee sent this to me (she knows me so well). I love this little Chihuahua and hope you will too.

How'd I lose a week?

I can't believe it's been a week since I've had a blog entry! Where did last week go? I worked at Scrapbooks, Etc. for a few days, had a amazing and wonderful class on Friday (thanks ladies), and then attended Scrapfest on Saturday. The first 7 days of November have flown by!

Meanwhile, I have scheduled my classes for the first four months of 2010 - started working on some Bazzill design team assignments for CHA, and created 5 new layouts for Heidi's group. Guess I just answered my own question. Have a great week and I will get back on the "blog ball."
