Admitting it is the First Step

My parents have a photograph of me when I was probably around the toddler age of me playing with a whole pile of newspaper. It was apparently a favorite thing for me to do. Well now quite a few years later I am finally admitting it - I love playing with paper just as much now as I did back then. So I started as a Stampin Up! demonstrator....

Thanks to some very VERY good friends I have taken over a club that meets once a month to make beautiful cards and 12x12 scrapbook pages. I have to say that planning the projects was daunting, exciting and I couldn't pick what I wanted to show the girls first! I was so enthralled with all the ideas that are out there and things I wanted to show that I changed my mind about 3 or 4 times before finally deciding which ones to do. I had a lot of help from Aaron (my most fantastic upline!) and pulled together 4 cards and a 2-page layout.

Here are a few pictures of the things that we worked on...
