Also on Monday @ 10:30 a.m. is the layout class called easy peasy. It is a super cute 2 page 12 x 12 spread for Disney pictures. There are still 2 spots left so if you decide you want to come , pop on by. {or call to reserve a kit}. The layout uses bling, sparkle paper, gems, ribbon, all kinds of cute embellishments. Please bring your basic supply kit, and some Disney pictures.

We got in some very cute Bo Bunny product, including a lot of sports related themes. So if you have some sporty pictures you have been waiting to scrap, come on by and check out all out new stuff. It took Becky a really long time to get it all organized, and she could not lift the box by herself,...so you know we got alot! { let's see how many days it takes good old Beck to read the blog this time! wink!}

We had such a great time at Kim Henkel's class yesterday! We all stitched our little hearts out, and only one pink lady needed a band-aid {hope you are okay D. :)}. We all completed our darling birthday books, and we had a great time chitty chattin' away. Kim is such a sweetie, her kits were awesome, and came in these cute little bakery boxes...like that wasn't enough...she brings us these darling cupcakes that we wolfed down { well, some of the ladies just took small bites, and savoured everyone, but Christi A. and someone else who's name will not be revealed...WOLFED ours down.} Those cupcakes were delish! Then, (this is where i almost had a canary) Kim gave us another entire kit, just a wee bit different to make this adorable strawberry book! That put us all over the edge! It was a great class, and we all felt like royalty. Thank you Kim for coming to spend the day with us. We all had so much fun, and felt great about leaving with a completed album, and learned some great new tricks about stitching. Please come back when you have some time! We are hooked on the Henkel, and can't wait for more!

That is it for now Pinkie's. Get a load of this cute pic of these two pineapple chick a dees. I gave Chels my camera yesterday and said "Take pictures of the cute stuff we have in the store." They are so funny. So, from Becky and Chels, and all of us Pineapple girls, we are outta here. Stay cool, and If you need a cool place to get away, we've got the air cranked, so pop in anytime, we've got cold pop in the fridge and lotsa good scrapbooking supplies for you. Come and crop anytime. 598-2222 See you soon.
