Home after a weekend of scrapping with the girls!


It is always nice to get away from home, even just for a weekend. Our weekend in Nashua N.H. was wonderful. I scrapped away until 2am Saturday morning and was up at 8am to start again. We had a delicious dinner at Texas Roadhouse Saturday night which is our usual. However our waiter was "Jared" and a good friend of mine wanted to have her take home box full of him! He was a great sport and came back with "we do not have a box large enough to carry me in". Sunday I spent heat embossing some fabulous ornaments from Stampin' Up! called Delightful Decorations (116517 , $21.95). I embosssed them in silver and gold and they came out gorgeous! Then simply punched them out using the matching punch, Ornament(116794, $15.95). It couldn't have been any more simple!
Now that I have a huge pile of these...what to do with them? Scrapbook pages, cards, tags?
