Getting ready for Christmas cards!

It’s Sale Saturday! Since I am at OnStage I figured I would run my own promotion to get you thinking about your Christmas cards.

Give out what you want to come back.

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward. Do you ever wonder why your life is full of drama? Full of loving people? Full of kindness? Full of …?????

It’s Sale Saturday! We, as demonstrators, have been doing a good job of showing you the crafters what is cool to have. So, the Purple Posy Ink Pad, Copper Delicata Pad, and the Moose Punch are no longer in stock.

Sometimes you need french toast.

It’s Friendship Friday! This is the day to focus on giving back or paying it forward. Sometimes the ones closest to you get the worst of it. When I am going through something the ones closest tend to get my grumpies. I tend to not want to talk and just get through life until itContinue reading “Sometimes you need french toast.”
