March Club Project #2

I know I’m so behind in posting these in a timely fashion…this month has been a bit crazy. There seems to be someone sick or a snow day or March Break or an event to get ready for….why can’t we have more hours in a day?! This week I’m getting ready for the Capital Parent Show at the Nepean Sportsplex. You can read my previous post for a special coupon from me if you attend. Many other demonstrators are getting ready this week for the Stampin’ Up! Bermuda Cruise, but, sadly I’m unable to go. Boooooohoooo. I did earn it, but, couldn’t find a babysitter who would watch my 3 kids-so, instead I’ll take the money entitlement. I am sad though…it’s always so much fun to catch up with friends and enjoy the swapping, relaxation and to visit new places I’ve never been.

I am happy to say though that 4 ladies from my group will be attending the Stampin’ Up! Bermuda Cruise. Congrats to Marlayne Hardy, Kay Smith, Nancy Gauthier and Maryse Morneau who each earned the cruise for 2 from Stampin’ Up!!! I know they’ll all have such a great time-I can’t wait to hear all about it when they return!

For today’s share- you’ll find below some of my favourite Family Frames that some of my club members created this month! We used the All in the Family stamp set-if you don’t have this set…you really need it- it’s adorable!!!! All the ladies created wonderful ones, but, I couldn’t post 26 of them-so, I picked out the most unique ones to show you!

Aren’t they great?!
Hope you get some Rubber Stamping done today!!! Have a great day!
Josee- who’s looking forward to when Ottawa finally gets Spring weather!!!

I’ll be in exhibitor at the Capital Parent Show this weekend in Ottawa at the Nepean Sportsplex- so make sure to visit and say hi…I’ll be in booth #204! (You’ll find a discount coupon to get in to the show on the Capital Parent site!)

Happy Easter

Happy Easter everyone!!! Here’s a cute treat my kids and I put together for our family dinner. Even my son got into the whole crafting thing while making them…it was really cute!
