I'm back!!

I can't believe it's been almost three weeks since my last post! I went to a conference in Seattle and then I've been quite busy at work. I'm back in the swing of stampin' and scrappin', though. I've really missed it.

Final Club Meeting for 2007-08

Tonight was our final club meeting for 2007-08. I really enjoyed this past year creating cards and scrapbook layouts. I look forward to an even better year to come!

Here are a couple of door prizes that I had for our last meeting.

Fun in Sea World

Last year, my niece and nephew from Atlanta and my nieces from New Jersey came to visit me over their Spring Breaks. That meant two trips to Sea World! We had a great time.

I love this layout. I'm going to tweak it just a little and use it for layout for the Stampin' and Scrappin' Club. I used the Summer Fun Simply Scrappin' kit. Those kits are wonderful. The color scheme is already put together for you and you get tons of stickers to use as embellishments.
