Valentine's


Saturday, my nephew and I made his Valentine's. He is four and loves to stamp. Sometimes he starts telling me how to stamp which is pretty funny since I have stamped a few more years then him. :)
Anyway, we used Pun Fun and he stamped them with Night of Navy and colored then with regular crayons. He also glued some of them together (the top and bottom one in the picture) but since we used a glue stick, at some point he said it was disgusting. Well, I am not a glue stick fan so I have to agree with him but I become the officail gluer that night. Then I punched two holes in the cards using the crop-a-dile and stuck a Tootsie Pop in them. He was supposed to write his name on them but said he was too tired and laid down on the couch. Hopefully his mom and him will do some every night this week. If not, he will just be a secret admirer to his whole class. ha ha

Upcoming Retreat and Bus Trip

I have been working hard to update the Croppin' Train Retreat website. Our retreat is coming up in March and we are trying something new this year - a BUS TRIP to the Great American Scrapbook Convention in ARLINGTON. Woo Hoo! I am excited for our new adventure - I have always wanted to go.

Check them both out at www.croppintrain.com

Hope to see you there, at one or both.
