Charlotte or Bust!

My dear husband states, "please tell me you don't have anything else...".  Why you ask?  My poor Honda Pilot is loaded to the brim with display grids, booth decorations, class supplies, a cash register, booth signage, etc... We won't be able to look out the back window, and we still haven't loaded our personal luggage!

Since I DO have a few more boxes of supplies left and I really want to bring my Cricket, our luggage must travel with us on the hood.  My family has traveled cross country for days in my Pilot and we've NEVER had luggage on the top.  There's a first time for everything....

CHARLOTTE or BUST!

So much to do!

So much to do and so little time!  Our spare bedroom closets (warehouse) are filled to the brim with product!  We're really looking forward to teaching the summer sand castle and city book classes! 

The Kaisercraft rub-ons are the bomb!  The rhinestones are yummy too!  So many, for such a good price.  We're sure they'll do well in the booth. 

La Tondra's been cutting like a madwoman!  The tab books are a perfect size and the 9 in. by 9 in. album is great for larger projects.

Wish us luck as we tweak our instructions for the classes!

Just 2 weeks....

The CK Charlotte show and Pink Elli's premiere is officially two weeks away!  So much to do and so little time!  La Tondra and I are anxious, excited and nervous!  We've received several emails about our classes and we can't wait to meet Elli's new friends.   See you in Charlotte.

KaiserCraft Paper

La Tondra just received our KaiserCraft shipment.  WOW!  The papers are beautiful!  If you haven't heard of KaiserCraft, just visit our booth at the CK Charlotte show (#97).  It takes a few months for Kaiser's new releases to become available in the US (Kaiser is an Australian paper craft company), but the quality and unique paper designs are worth the wait.  Here's a quick peak of the Tudor palette..

Come by booth #97 to see more fabulous designs from Kaiser!
