Happy Holidays!

I know most of you have already taken a break from the blogging world to spend time with your families, but I still wanted to squeeze mine in as well! I'm off to visit my parents next week and I will be back in 2011.


I'm sending you many warm wishes for a great Christmas and all the best in the new year! Many hugs, Thanh

RTB Challenge #46 - Use a Tree

Happy Hump Day!

*** OH MY!!! lol I started this post last Thursday night and then completely forgot about it til now. I had it in my head that I had already set it to autopost. {I'm so embarassed} Sorry about the late posting, but you know that saying about "better than never." ;)

You still have a couple of days to play along with us at Raise the Bar this week! Our current challenge is to use a tree(s). I have had this gorgeous My Mind's Eye package of papers lying around for the last couple of years and I'm still finishing it up!

Thank You, Vicki Chrisman!

Hello friends, hope your week is going well!

I just wanted to take a moment to thank my good friend, Vicki, whom I recently got a quick visit in with. We first me a couple of years ago at a local Scrapbook Expo. After CKC in Seattle, Vicki came up here to Canada for a few days. Her and Sandy were at Cherish the Thought for the Crafty Secrets Open House and the night was just awesome! Even though I was a bit late to the party, I jumped right in and made two awesome make and take projects that Jessie and her team demonstrated. Thanks ladies... and Andrew!

A few days after that, I got this wonderful package of goodies in the mail from Vicki and I cannot wait to use some of them. Thank you Vicki!!

Come back and visit me tomorrow for the Raise the Bar Challenge of the week. :)
