I'm back from my five week vacation (it was great to visit my MGC pal, Valerie while we were in Vancouver, BC) and finally got all my chores done so I could craft today -- I made two things for a Stampin Up Workshop on October 6th at my house -- the fellow on the left is the "Build-A-Bear die from SU and he (or she) is decked out in a Halloween costume -- the box on the right uses a stamp set from Stampin Up (can't remember the name and can't go look it up since I have a cat on the back of my chair and if I get up I am sure the chair will tip over!!) -- I plan to buy some candy on Friday for the ladies at the workshop to put in the boxes they make -- I will have to hide the candy from my husband or there won't be any candy left come Tuesday!!).

I have been working toward my certification on the new Stampin Up software -- looks like a great program -- I did the scrapbook and card making part and next up is making calendars -- if you would like to see more info about the program you can check out the Stampin Up web site.
