We had a great time....

At Crop Celebration.  I have to say a HUGE Thank You to Regina and Jeri.  They did a wonderful job on this event!  I am so happy we were able to be a part of it and able to help the Restoration House as well.  These girls worked so hard and it showed!

We met some wonderful new friends and were able to visit with old friends too!  It was such a nice relaxing weekend, and we all needed it!

Our booth site was PERFECT!  We were able to crop and watch the booth!  NICE!!!!
A picture of us at the booth ( Not the greatest pic , but hey...we are all there!)
Ms Reva and her crew!  We always have fun when her and Kaya (sp) are there!!

This is me (Mel) with Kay Saraceno...we just LOVE this lady!  She kept Lisa and I BUSY all weekend!  Thanks Ms. Kay we LOVE you!!!
Bev taught a class and it was a hit!  She is showing off some of her goodies here!

We are waiting on some more pictures from our other new friend..."Roll Tide" Marie....But I am not promising how many I can share.  Some of them may not be very pretty!!!!!

All in all we had a wonderful time.  It was so nice for all four of us to get to crop together and giggle ALOT!
We are truly 4 Blessed ladies!

Remember to send us pictures of your completed kits so we can post them here!

and our next event is.....

Crop Celebration...
It is only 3 days until we got to Hammond, Louisiana for Crop Celebration!  We are so excited to meet all the wonderful ladies over there!  I know we have been working like busy bees creating and designing new kits for them.  A little birdie told us they love cruising..so we have kits JUST for that!!

I think we will have Mardi Gras and Saints covered too for those good ol' Louisiana girls!

It has been a wee bit hard staying inside and working due to our BEAUTIFUL weather....you all know it is hard to get a South Louisiana day  with mild temps and sun!  We must enjoy while we can!

Well that is all for now.....Hope you have all of your goodies packed and ready for a fun 2 days of meeting new friends. lots of laughs and tons of creativity!

See you there!  Be sure and come by our booth and say HEY!!!

Melanie, Beverly, Lisa and Teri!

Wow, we are so Blessed.....

 All I can say is we are so Blessed....Scrapfest is over and it was a bigger success than any of us ever dreamed.  Thank You  Thank Yo Thank You to Keri and Meghan for an amazing , well put together event!! I think the one thing that amazed me is the wonderful women who came to Scrapfest just to shop with us!!!  Beverly and Lisa met some wonderfully crazy gals while at GiGi's Scrapbooking Retreat in Foley Alabama in January.....well they weren't able to go to Scrapfest, BUT.......they drove to SHOP WITH US!!!  I am amazed and in shock!  THANKS GIRLIES..you know who you are!!!

We met and became friends with some INCREDIBLY amazing ladies!  I think my FB grew by 10 just from meeting women who came to the booth! 

When we started this venture, it was a small discussion about doing 1 event a year...and less than a year later we are booked up for almost the entire year! 

Several ladies have asked us about an "ONLINE STORE", at this time we are not venturing off into that...BUT, PLEASE e-mail us about themes and such...we will be more than happy to e-mail you pictures of available kits and ship to you!  All of our e-mails are listed to the side.  ALSO, you can e-mail to me machyatt@cox.net and I can forward it out to everyone as well.

Now on to our next event.......We will be in Hammond at CROP CELEBRATION  (www.cropcelebration.com) Friday March 19th 9am-1am and Saturday March 20 9am-10pm. The cost is $50.00 for the weekend or $25.00 for the day!  ALSO......you can purchase a $5.00 shopping pass if you can't stay to crop!  ALL money is Donated to Restoration Pregnancy Center.  Contact Regina and tell her Melanie sent you!!!

I guess, I need to get off of here and go be the Domestic Goddess for awhile ( I really don't enjoy it at all!!!)

Don't forget....leave us a comment...about Scrapfest or any other event ....or themes you would LOVE to see!
ALSO......IF you have completed any of our kits...we would LOVE to post the pictures here on our BLOG!  Send a jpeg pic to machyatt@cox.net and I will be happy to "show it off" for you!!!
Melanie, Beverly, Lisa and Teri!!!!
