Wow Chrsitmas is Coming Very Soon

"><$BlogItemTitle$>
Wow,
I can't believe that Christmas is only 9 days away.
I've got all my wrapping to do! Have you done yours?
The Grandbabies are looking forward to opening presents.
Do you have any particular traditions that you carry on from year to year?

I do - everybody always gets new PJ's for Christmas- That way they look great on The Blessed Morning.
The Boys (men) in my family always get boxer shorts with funny characters on them.

How about you -- any weird things happen in your family.
Happy Scrapping!

A New Addition

Well I have added a new member to my home, I went to The Humane Society in Cadillac and purchased a dog. Well- lets see, she is sweet, a little homley and very quiet.
I think I'm going to call her Lucy after Lucielle Ball.
Lucy has strawberry blonde hair. She is crossed between a pomerainian and a terrier.
Happy Scrapping!

Snow and more Snow

Well I began thinking that I lived in Paradise-- but after several days of continuous snowing and it getting deeper and deeper- I might want to rethink this Paradise thing.
:)

Store Open

All of my supplies have made it here, I love the Kaiser line of paper products. They are all double sided and with rich colors to choose from.

PLease check it out and let me know what you think.

Happy Scrapping

Paradise Scrapbooking web site

Here is some of the features at Paradise Scrapbooking- There is a gallery that you are welcome to post to-- I encourage you to place your cards, layouts, altered art -whatever you like to create there and share you passion for all to see.

Newsletter

Wow,

I thought I knew how to use a computer, but when you have a web site built- it gets tricky!

Well I guess I'm going to use blogger to send a newsletter out to all of my scrapping friends.

I want to announce to everyone that I have placed a Scrapbooking store on line. I'm living my dream.

I want to bring affordable products to everyone. January will start having classes on a vast array of products, styles, projects. I will take requests as to suggestions for class projects.

I hope to hold all night crops as well. I've been to some of these and they are fun. You get to see how other people put their books together.

A Little Bit About Paradise Scrapbooking

Well as I announced that I'm starting my own business, the most important part to scrapbooking that I want to get across is that it doesn't have to fancy, and it doesn't have to be expensive.

I want to offer affordable, good products and lots of fun and education.

Many of my fellow scrapbookers are not crazy about all the embelishments that people place on their pages, and I agree. Scrapbooking is all about the pictures and the stories that are being told at that time.
we are trying to pass onto our future generations the heritage that our families have to offer.

I'll keep everyone up to date on the progress of my store.

Hugs Gail

New Look, New Adventure

Hi everyone,

I've changed my blog face and I'm changing directions too.

I'm in the process of starting my own store, both home and the internet.

Paradise Scrapbooking www.paradisescrapbooking.com

The web page is being built and I'll keep you updated on my official launch.

I can't wait to share all the new and upcoming items with you.

Pazzles Creations

This is some of the work I've done on my Pazzles, the origional desigs are by Klo Oxford at Klorigional designs, but the choices of paper and colors are mine.

Pazzles

In March, I became the proud owner of a Pazzles Inspiration cutting machine.
Wow what can I say. This machine is amazing and the people that I've met thru Yahoo groups are fantastic.
Klo Oxford is the name of the lady that I took the Class from at Mega Meet (in Novi Mi), her creations are fantastic and I'm anxiously waiting for her second CD to come out.
I'll post some of my creations later.
This machine and the people I've met have put a new spin on creating scrapbooks and cards.
