Happy eofys is over...

That is, I'll be happy when the rigmarole of eofys is over!

What have I been up to? I can tell you I've been a busy gal. I have been continuing on with classes and they are going well. Numbers are getting better and it never ceases to amaze me that just when you think you've roped in every potential scrapbook addict, another one or few come along and get hooked. It's so fun! Gayle's distress techniques classes were popular for oldies and newbies. The gorgeous 'Sweet Shoppe' papers by Collage Press were to die for and very versatile.

I, or should I say Amy, has been busily stock taking away and I'm convinced the total is gonna blow me away as the stock is breeding - growing before our eyes. I am so excited about too many new ranges that we have to have as many of them as my credit card will permit! Some of the new lines i have are;
Basic Greys new Lemonade and June bug...




...a few new ranges from Fancy Pants including Summer Soiree...




...and these babies are back in stock after 11 months!...




I've also been making invitations. Our first commissioned job for invites was for 120 of them with a Hollywood theme. This was no small feat so I called on the very talented Gayle Smith to help me out and she did not disappoint. An amazing gal.


I've been scrapping as well. Here are a few quick and easy layouts I designed using 6 x 4 photos...





and a double page layout with a regular single photo and a 12 x 12 page protector that's divided into six 6x4 sections. Too easy...but that's the whole idea!




I can honestly say that I am the most content I have been in a long time. I LOVE going to work and enjoy it so much. And just for the record the shop is doing very well and we are paying the bills. It's doing far better than I expected..and who would have thought?
