Wow my first post on my blog!!! I can't believe I am really doing this. Happy New Year to all and hopefully you will enjoy my blog!

First I have to say thank you to my wonderful husband Kurt that I love very much for taking me to Creative Pals a couple of years ago. Kurt noticed the store one day and thought it would be fun for me to go there since I liked Stamping. He thought I might see something there that I liked, and of course I did more than you can imagine.

It is an awesome store but more than that I met one of my best friends there that day. Her name is Kathy she is the Class Instructor at Creative Pals is the most amazing artist.

I took every Copic marker class she taught, and bought every Copic marker there is. Then I took every colored pencil class that that they offered and bought every pencil I could get my hands on.
(Bet my husband regrets the day that he took me there!!! )Having purchased all the Copics and almost 500 pencils I am having the time of my life. I am addicted to stamps, ink pads, paper, ribbon and any kind of embellishment or stamping item you can buy.

With that being said I have to say a very big thank you to Kathy who is my "IDOL", and
the person who taught me everything I know about markers and pencils. Oh yea and the addiction is
her fault also, or that I say because every time she colors something I have to buy the same image also and see if I can come close to how she colors it.

I also have met 2 dear friends through the classes.... Steph and Kristal. I could never keep up to them shopping though. But we have tons of fun together... luv you guys you are my BFF's.
