Christmas Came Early


Hurray For Me! I am so excited about this I can hardly contain my giddy girlish giggles!
I met the greatest lady ever a couple of months ago. (And I am not saying that just because she gave me all this stuff- she really is great) Melody Ross moved into our ward a few months back and I was talking with her at an Enrichment night and she told me that she created the company called Chatter Box! What! That is so much fun. Anyway, she invited me to her warehouse to take whatever I wanted. I thought I was dreaming! It was so much fun. I took a couple of friends and some boxes and came home fully stocked. Melody sold her business to Seven Gypsies so this is all the retired paper and opened containers of embellishments, albums, ribbon, full size chipboard paper and pre-cut chipboard letters, numbers, corners, you name it and it was there. Free for the taking. Talk about fun. There was a ton of ladies there and we all got boxes full of fun stuff. Her husband told me that he was known to have big bonfires at his home. He fueled it by using the retired papers. Man, I wish I would have known them back then.
Excuse me while I go play with my new prizes and scrapbook now. (WOOHOO!)

That is so cool! I have one of her books and it mentions that she lived in a farmhouse that had been in her family for generations...wonder why she moved and if she sold that home and property?

Dessa Mae

I'm happy for you! You'll have a lot of fun!!

It looks like you will be having a lot of fun. I so wish I could have been there with you. You will have to show us your crations as you create them.

Wendy

I kept thinking yesterday how lucky I am to have gotten in on that. Thanks for thinking of me!

Oh my goodness...how fun! I had no idea that Chatterbox was no longer around, but I loved their stuff. I think a while back you said you lost your addresses so here is ours again. I'm a little slow.

Hey Jessica, it's cousin Lisa! Sara found me and hence I found you. :-) Hope you don't mind if I drop by from time to time. And I must say, I am impressed by your craftiness!

That is so fun! That will be fun to be doing cards and scrapbooking with. I miss the evenings that we use to scrapbook together. Aaahhh, those were the days.
