This amused me...

From the Klic-N-Kut retreat...

Dalana has the biggest baddest cutter (the 24" Maxx)...and the teeny-tiniest computer. Priorities!
I LOVE it!!!

Scottsdale KNK Retreat

This weekend I am in Scottsdale at for a Klic-N-Kut Retreat! I am learning so much about my KNK Maxx Digital Cutter. Most of this I will not retain...but at least I know more about the possibilities of this AMAZING MACHINE! Sandy McCauley (our instructor and my personal cutting mentor) is doing a wonderful job. She warned me that my head may explode...and I think she may be right about that. I am here with some of my Best Girlfriends from our Thursday Therapy Scrap Group and am making new friends with wonderful women from all around the country.

I can't wait to get back home and create using this expanded skill set! I still have another 24-hours to go!

KNK Sold!

Congrats Christy of Mesa, Arizona! You won't regret this decision. This machine is awesome!!!!

Nancy came to cut today...

for my February Master Mini Books Class at Scrapbooks, Etc. While she was here she cut out: 675 circles, 150 Kitchen words and 150 Kitchen word outlines, 75 little brackets and 150 basic corner punches. She is an amazing "multi-tasker" and in her downtime and she punched out 150 scallop shapes, and about 100 or more fancy photo corners. After all this she cut ribbon and packed up some embellishments for Heidi's group. What would I do without my Nancy. Love ya!!!
