Blogging instead of bowling (Super bowling, that is)

Watching the Super Bowl I am not.

Well, it is on in the background & Lee has a few guys over so I can hear play-by-play coming from the other room.

Blogging instead I am.

And speaking in my best Yoda voice.

I feel like I have alot of things to talk about on this ole blog today! YAY!

OK Lucy announced a new class at Scrap Etc. that will be happening in a few weeks.

It is called the Coffee Table Carousel Class!

We will be working on one of those cool photo carousels from 7Gypsies.

(These are pictures from 7Gypsies. As soon as we have our example ready I will post those pics too.)

The class is Friday night, February 20th from 6:00-midnight.

It is going to be a great time!
There will be 5 teachers: Lucy, Virginia, Katie, Brittney, and me!

There will be prizes & snacks and you will leave with a full photo carousel!

The class cost is $68 and that includes the photo carousel.

Call Scrap Etc. (205/985-9323) to sign up!

I heard that this class filled up but Lucy is calling 7Gypsies Monday morning to order more carousels so there should be a few more spots available.

Kits for the class are also available if you cannot make it.

But I hope you can come!! It will be so fun!!
