"So many things to do, so little time to accomplish it in". How many times have we thought or said those words. That's how I felt today. One of my strengths is my ability to set priorities. Do that and the important things get done and the rest will wait for tomorrow. One of my priorities today was to update the Blog because there are some exciting classes coming your way.
First of all, Fran's class, "A Year in Cards" - Love, scheduled for Wednesday - January 25th is sold out. There will be a lot of good fun tomorrow night. Don't worry though, Fran was in the store yesterday selecting the papers for her first class in February. As always, I'll keep you posted on the details as they are revealed to me.
Don't forget! Priscilla's "Get To Know Your Eclips" class is this coming Saturday - January 28th (2:00-4:00pm). Priscilla has conducted this class before and it's a great way to get introduced to the wonderful world of the Eclips machine. The class is limited to 5 people and 4 have already signed up for it. If your interested, please give me a call. You will need to bring your Eclips machine (make sure it has been updated), the cartridge that came with your machine, the spatula and pick, paper to cut using the Eclips, and your basic tool kit. In case you didn't know - the class is "Free".
I mentioned in my last Blog that Priscilla was working on a Shaker Box Greeting Card class. The details have been finalized and Sunday, January 29th (2:00-4:00pm) is the scheduled date to hold the class. The class is limited to 6 people and the cost is only $20.00. The supplies you will need to bring will be a 12" ruler, pencil with an eraser, scoring board, liquid glue, 1/8" double sided tape, and tweezers. This would make a wonderful Valentine card for that special someone in your life. I'm looking forward to mine.

The next class is also Valentine oriented. Debbie West has put together a beautifully designed mini album. Everything blends so wonderfully from page to page. This is one of those classes that will only be offered once. Please don't miss it. The class is on Wednesday, February 1st, from 6:00-9:00pm. The fee is $30.00 and is limited to 6 people (there is a 2 student minimum). Be sure and bring photos, other images, Valentine stamps and ink pads to personalize the pages. The supplies you will need to bring are scissors, pencil and eraser, red marker or pen, double stick adhesive, liquid craft glue, craft knife and cutting mat, tweezers, binder clips, emery board, red and/or pink stamp pad. The creative juices will flow in this class.

Everybody has been waiting for this next class. Art and Priscilla are offering "E-cal Made Friendly" for those of you that are ready to enter a new dimension in crafting. You've seen the samples in the store and we want to assist you in understanding and applying the software to your next project. You will learn how to weld letters and create a fun "Slipper Box". The class is on Saturday, February 4th (1:00 - 4:00pm). The fee is $60.00. There is a class limit of 5 people - all participants must make sure the Ecal software has been loaded onto your laptop prior to class. There is an update to the Ecal software at www.surecutsalot.com. The supplies you will need to bring are your Eclips machine and laptop, 12" ruler, pencil w/eraser, and a notebook.

The last few days have been somewhat humorous with respect to the classes. People would come into the store to sign up for a class and find that I've updated the board with additional classes. They would shake their head and say " I came into the store ready to sign up for a class - now I don't know which one to take" We must be doing something right - all the classes are fantastic. This is one of those times you can't go wrong in the decisions you make. Some people have made it even easier - they have signed up for multiple classes.
That's all for tonight ........ see you tomorrow.
