MARCH UPDATE

Hi Everybody--

Just a quick note to update you as to what is going on. We are well into our preparation for our Extravaganza in April. We have ordered all the stamps, have ordered most of the paper and most of the ink--they will be coming in over the next week or two. For this Extravaganza we will be serving a Continental Breakfast (juice, coffee, tea, bagels, and sweet rolls) instead of a full breakfast--that way we can start crafting at 9:30 which will give us an extra half hour in the morning and hopefully make things a little less hurried. The continental breakfast will be out at
8:45 and we will start our projects at 9:30.

More of the Alice in Wonderland stamps and collage packs and card packs are on their way.

Also, the new distress inks should be here sometime next week.

I'm sure most of you saw our tribute to Sumi Kanno who passed away March 13. Our condolences to Laura and her family.

We would like to start a Pinecone Press Projects Night once again. Gayle will be the teacher but we need to have at least four (preferably more) committed students to do this once a month for the next four-six months. The cost is $35. With that you get a kit with the paper, ribbon, chipboard for certain projects and an instruction booklet with at least 7-10 more projects. In the kit there is enough paper to complete at least two projects and sometimes more. Projects consist of cards, purses for art projects and chipboard books. We would love to have you join us.

If you have any questions about anything, please call (310-391-0466), email me www.stampinheart@hotmail.com or post a note on the blog and I will get back to you asap.

For now have a wonderful weekend. Looking forward to seeing those of you who are taking Mike Strong's class tomorrow (Saturday).
