  all the shelves already full with Christmas stuff  ouch!

that is just around the corner and has ever i will not be ready lol

no matter how i try im never ready for Christmas…

im still very busy behind the scenes with samples  my new printer arrived yesterday with a few goodies

from the Crafters Companion Birthday Week 

had to set everything up and get it ready for even more samples …so all is good again on that score
