I took a class Monday night and made 4 cards. I will post them shortly. I had a good time and decided to take a few more classes. A card Friday morning, a layout at the end of the month and an altered book on the 24th. The card class may be something I want to do every month, they were really beautiful. My girlfried Elaine and I have been trying to work once a month making diecuts for Now and Then Scrapbooks to sell. It helps us with spending money at the store! I am also trying to teach myself the SCAL (Sure Cuts A Lot) enabling me to cut any True Fonts. We need to start working on our Journals and notebooks before Christmas.

We had a fabulous vacation! The weather turned out great and we really enjoyed the cruise and all of our excursions. The food was great and I am so excited to say I only gained one pound on the whole trip. I actually took two scrapbooking classes on the sea days. Not quite the embellishments I would like, but fun anyway.

I took a ton of picutres and can't wait to start to play with them. I am planning on doing a book with just the Buchurt Gardens because we took so many pictures there.
