Happy Friday!

Happy Friday to you!

Rosies Roadshow and another grouping of Amuse and Copics arrived today here at The Tree. Here are a few samples of the cute cards that came in as samples.

Tomorrow morning I'll announce the winner of the BLOG CANDY.

And..... a new challenge to you is coming soon from The Tree. Watch for details to win free stamps each month. We'll also be looking for a Guest Blogger each month so be sure to visit the blog again soon.

I really need to figure out how to put pictures next to each other. And why are my pictures so blurry? AUGH....."they" tell me blogging is fun! :)

Michelle runs around the new shop screaming "Bellas are here! Bellas are here! Bellas are here!" Well, not EXACTLY like that but I sure was happy to see all the Bellas, Kettos, Fellas and whoever else those are delivered by the man in Brown this morning!

I'm rolling up my sleeves and creating this afternoon. Can you even believe it? Check out the stamps here. This one pictured, is my favorite. I just love her...she reminds me of my childhood.

Blog Candy Anyone? Comment by Friday, August 7th and you could be the next winner of my candy! I wonder what it'll be? Oh, maybe my favorite Ketto! :)

Julia is very talented and makes us all smile with her creativity each month. She takes the journey north each month, teaches us 2 totally awesome classes and inspires us to do more and more with our stamps. Her blog is amazing and so worth the visit each day. She works full time, is a wife and mom and still has stamping time! Although, I think she doesn't need nearly as much sleep as me.

If I could get my signature to show up here, it will be a miracle!!! LOL

Have a great weekend!

Winner Announced!

My first Blog Candy Winner!

It's like gift giving at Christmas Time. As you can see we picked some really fun purples. Purple, purple, purple. Purple scalloped note cards from The Paper Cut, Zings, paper & ribbon from American Crafts and Bling from Basic Grey.

Zing isn’t ordinary embossing powder – it’s the most even, opaque and vivid embossing powder available. It’s ama-Zing! Really, I even played with them myself! :)

And...........the winner is...............................
Ms. Maddy Carignan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have now blogged twice in one month...are you falling over yet? LOL

Forgot a couple things....

I'm thinking I might try to actual blog more often. Have you heard that from me before? Anyway, we'll see how it goes. If you are reading this entry, make a comment and you could have a chance for some special blog candy! :)

I did forget to mention a few things in my latest email and thought this might be a good place to put it.

Amuse is having their 8th Anniversary this week and they are offering a stamp set which is absolutely a must for any Amuse Addict! Spend $60 at The Tree in Amuse products and you get the set for FREE! This is a limited offer and only while supplies last.

I finally got in some CKC discount coupons. Stop in and grab them. I'm not sure how many they sent but there's a few on the counter. :)

This week I'm getting a HUGE order (160 pounds) of American Crafts paper, embellishments and ribbon. Their ribbon is one of my favs and perfect for so many papercrafting projects. I'm also getting a bunch of pearls, blings, Spellbinders and some other stuff too.

Okay.....I think that's all for now. Don't forget your comment for your chance at the candy!
