Back to School

Wow! I guess I had a summer vacation from the blog...lol

Well, both of my chicks are back in school...Deana as a Senior this time! Are you ready for some croppin? We've seen several scrappin chicks over the summer at various crops...hope to see you in October for our annual "Crop for the Cure". Last year we donated (with your help) $1,000 to the Baton Rouge Komen Foundation...that was a record for us. We've got some great things lined up and hope you can join us for our third Komen Krop....seriously this is the sixth consecutive crop for the chicks...time flies when you're scrapbooking!

School's "almost" Out!

Hope everyone enjoyed Mother's Day and have some cute pics for scrappin'...

We've fully recovered from another fun "Scrappin with the Chicks" event. We're making some changes to the event format and pricing...all good news. The next event will be "Scrappin for A Cure" October 8-10 at the Radisson.

We requested and received some good feedback from recent attendees. We really do try to accommodate all reasonable requests...:)

Hope to see you all soon and we'll keep you posted on new developments!!!

Wow has it been 3 months?

OK, no surprise I'm a bad blogger! Seriously it has been months since my last blog...well here we go...AGAIN...lol

The chicks' event is just around the corner it will be April 30 before we know it. Tara has her usual fun activities planned...ribbon swap, birthday card swap (I plan to make two sets!), Secret Sister (use the word "CARDSTOCK" to plan your sista surprises) and the 2nd dirty scrapper swap (this was so much fun stealing scrappy goodness).

The goodie bags are filled and the door prizes waiting for a lucky ticket holder. We can't wait to see everyone...hope you all had a great Easter and took lots of pics...:)

a sweet deal...

Well I guess Happy Holidays sums it up...Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's and today is 12th night! All this has been celebrated since my last post... :P

Tara and I actually did a little New Year's scrappin' last weekend. We saw some of the Brunet ladies from Houma and Baton Rouge gals, too.

The 2 chicks website is updated and ready for registrations. We've had a few and are offering a sweet deal to get things hopping. If you register by Valentine's Day (Feb 14, 2010) we'll enter you into a drawing for some organizational sweetness. If you've already registered no worries... you are already in the drawing. When the winner arrives at the event you'll find your special prize waiting for you.

How is the new year going for ya? I've tried to start the new year off right by purging and organizing my scrappin' stuff...I've made a wee little start but need to keep the ball a rolling!

Hope 2010 is off to a good start for you, too!

$1,000 donated to Komen Foundation!

WOW!!!! Thanks everyone we couldn't have done it without the generousity of all you wonderful scrapbookers! The total contribution exceeded Tara and my expectations and then some.

We saw so much talent and had a little bit of fun, too. The bra decorating contest was incredible. Congrats to Susan Bankston for her 1st place entry - Eye of the Tiger, and 2nd place went to Heather Belanger for her Red and Black Lace number, with Brenda Brunet taking 3rd with for her matching bra and panties! I'll post some pics as soon as Dawn sends some... as my camera was missing it's memory card! Doncha hate when that happens....lol

We're making plans and so should you...Our NSD crop will be April 30-May 2, 2010!!! Mark your calendars!!!!!

Just a few more days...

OMG...I just lost my post...don'cha hate when that happens? Anyway, I'm needing to start a BIG checklist to make sure I bring everything. For some reason both Tara and I have way more stuff this time than for the past three events...Can you believe this is our 4th event???!!!!

There will be lots of croppin' going on and raisin' some $$$$ for a GREAT cause! Are you feeling PINK yet...we'll have a special raffle again this year with some awesome pink stuff with maybe a little of some other colors thrown in.

I did get my dirty scrapper surprise and secret sis items all wrapped up and ready for swappin'. Also finished bagging up my ribbon swap and Christmas card swap....I can't wait to see you all...Friday will be here in no time!
