The Button Farm

i slept in until 11 am yesterday and went back to bed at noon!  While I was sleeping, i was dreaming about scrapbook shows.  My booth was in a dark barn and another booth was on the lawn of some hotel.  I was obviously worried about lighting in the barn and rain out of doors.  I guess I  am ‘really really’ need a little rest and relaxation because I am even dreaming about the shows!

Jason and I drove home from Manchester CKC Saturday night, this was my 3rd time as a vendor in Manchester!  It was such an exciting show.  I really enjoyed seeing everyone - Manchester is my ‘home base’, and I love seeing all of my local customers.  Sadly I was unprepared and in the back of the room working on kits most of the time.  So if you dropped by to say hello,  and I missed seeing you - I am so sorry, what a bummer.  I had a ton of people drop by and help me this weekend.  I used to call these people customers, but they are dear friends.  I never thought my business would bless me with such friends along the way.  I dont know how to thank you all!  I am not even going to mention names, because I fear leaving one out, but when I close my eyes, I see you there and send you a big hug!

Today, I spent the evening packing up boxes that needed shipping and tomorrow will spend the day getting my pallet ready for Buffalo.  The truck needs to come get that Thursday, so I have another couple of busy days this week.  Once my shipment leaves I hope to spend some time creating.  I have participated in some major retail therapy this last month and hope to play during the long weekend.  One of the most exciting things that I purchased was the ‘Bind it All’.  I cannot wait to  play with this tool and create my own bound books.  When I was in Mesa, I purchased some Grand Canyon postcards and hope to make a little book with the Bind it All.  I will keep you updated! 

I also hope to have a few new kits up on the site this weekend, thank you all for being so patient with me.  Check out these fun new kits:

Enjoy the Journey is a fun album created with the 7 Gypsies Envelope Album.  I used Collage Press’s brand new line, Knave of Hearts for this treasure.  Tuck 7 Gypsy journal cards in all of the pockets through this album.  This project would be perfect for travel or for a family themed album.  You get an entire sheet of stickers in this kit, so you can be creative with your title.  This album retails for $39

This fun album, Days of Summer is made with a Maya Road album and decorated with papers and embellishments from Fancy Pants.   This album retails for $36

Another fun album created with a new line from Collage Press.  This album is created with a Bo-Bunny mixed media album including chipboard, clear and felt pages.  You will love this bright fun paper line, with coordinating sticker letters, and embellishments.  This album retails for $38.

Dont forget the ‘Happy Family’ album pictured below.  I will be adding that to the site as well!  I hope to have these up by Friday at the latest, (just in time for pay day!).

Ok, I am heading for bed!  I will be in touch again soon!  Thanks for checking in with me friend!
