Future stamper?
I just love this picture of Alex. :) He had the best time stamping and loves to draw trains. :)
I got out of the hospital on Sunday. My arms are sore from IVs but my head feels a lot better. :) Thank you to everyone who helped my family while I was gone. I truly appreciate it!

I am totally writing to you from the hospital...
Argh! Well, I went to see the new neurologist and she has put me in the hospital for migraines. I am so udderly and completely bored. One can only watch so many game shows, talk shows and sitcoms before death by TV happens...
Anyway, I just wanted to post a little note to let you know why I have been MIA.
BTW, I got the new Close To My Heart catalog today! It is AMAZING! This has got to be my favorite catalog of all time. Please email me if you are interested in getting your own FREE copy! :)

OSCARS!!!
I am sitting here watching the Oscars and decided to post a quick note to everyone. :)
I love the Oscars! It is just a fun and silly night. Plus I really enjoy getting to see bits and pieces of great movies that I might have missed over the last year. Hope you are all having a great evening! :)

Nugget Purse Tutorial

2/21 Tutorial for nugget purses
Posted: 21 Feb 2007 02:34 PM
I have created a slideshow for the steps so if you need to see what I did, you have a visual aid. :)
Nugget Purse directions-
1. Cut a piece of from a level one sheet that is 1 3/8" x 4 3/4".
2. Round the corners of one end of the paper.
3. Starting at the rounded end, score the piece at 3/4", 1", 2 1/4" and 3 1/4".
4. Trim 1/4" off the unscored end.
5. Add some adhesive to the thin scored section of the paper (between the 3/4" and 1" mark).
6. Attach the ribbon of your choice.
7. Pick a little decoration for the front that is about 1/2" wide. You could use stickease, a punched circle, whatever you want as long as you can put a brad through it in the last step. Center this on the purse front and gently attach it to the front with a little adhesive.
8. Using a 1/16" punch, punch a small hole in the center of the decoration making sure you go through the flap and front of the purse.
9. Put your Hersey's Nugget candy in the purse with a little adhesive.
10. Put a brad through the decoration on the front and use it to hold the purse together.
The picture is of the three purses I have done. They are each a little different and hopefully it will give you some ideas.
Workshop details-
I am charging $3 for this workshop. The three dollars includes the supplies for the 12x12 layout, a second level one sheet to cut up, ribbon for two purses and one nugget box and six chocolates.
