You can call or email me today with your order or shop at my online store and do it yourself.  I'll be putting in an order tonight though if you want to do it through me.  Every customer that puts in a $50 or more order will be entered into a drawing to win a FREE Stampin' Trimmer!!!!  I'll have my cell phone if you want to call today (870)530-1362 or I'll get back to you early this evening.  Katie and I are heading to Memphis this morning to hit the Asian markets in search of special ingredients for the Hostess Tea - can't wait!!!

Well, you'd think I'd be caught up by now  -  NOT!  I did manage to put most of my display items in the attic today and the boxes of merchandise are in the closet (until the Tea), but there is still sooooo much to do.  In spite of that, I spent Sunday morning stamping and making a gift for my good friend, Laura.  Laura, Bridgette and I (her dusty friends) went out to dinner and a movie for a "Girls Night Out."  Here's her gifts from us:

Bridgette gave the birthday girl 2 framed holiday art pieces!  

Here's the banner I made for her craft room.

                                   

A little closer look at the pieces.  I used a little retired ribbon and embellishments.  

I also used the retired Serif Essentials Alphabet Dies - I love those things.  The new alphabet dies are great too, just a little smaller.  I used the First Edition Specialty DSP for the main part of the banner.  This newsprint style DSP comes in a pack of 24 sheets, so there's tons of it.  It's Vanilla and Black, so it goes with almost any color as you can tell.    

A few rolled paper roses on the E.

I also made a tag to match the bag.  

Here's Laura opening her gifts.  Don't ask what we were drinking - it's a secret.
