Journals!!!

I thought I would share my journals with you. Thanks to Sue Ellen at the Daisy Bucket for her great creativity to come out with cute and fun journals to use each month. I have enjoyed using my journals and I have to say that I am keeping up with my daily life in my journal. It has been nice again to write out my daily life on paper.

Valentine's Gift

I thought I would share my gift from Corey. Corey got me these flowers in a small wooden chest. There is pink carnations and red roses, he even had them put 3 more roses in the arrangement for me. I also got a Buttercream candle that smells wounderful. We spent the night at home, just a nice evening home together enjoying each other company. We realy don't like having to deal with all the people that go out to dinner on Valentine's.

Featured Daisy Artist

I am the Featured Daisy Artist for February 2006.

I have a display at the store and one of my projects has been turned into a kit for this month. I am so excited that I was chosen out of everyone who goes into the Daisy Bucket and I am the first one to be chosen for this new feature each month. Thank you to the Daisy Bucket crew for choosing me.

I need to make my mini album for this event to have all my teachers sign and I need to get photos of all my teachers also. That is one thing that I did not do last year and wish I did. I am not sure about the colors I am thinking in Pinks, but I think Yellow would be a good color for displaying the album in my scrapbook room. But then I think it should do something very different then what is my normal scrapbooking look.

Ali Edwards is coming....

Cassandra and Melinda met up with Ali at CHA in Las Vegas this week. Ali was able to confirm that she will be coming to Hermiston in June to teach some classes. Can you beleive it she is coming here to Hermiston of all places. It will be so much fun to have her come here to teach.
