Please make sure you check your class time as some classes will still start at 9:30 also please note that I will need to have all classes paid for in advance, this does two things, it lets the instructor know you will be here for her class so she doesn’t prepare extra kits and it also secures that you will be notified if the class is cancelled for whatever reason. Thank you for your co-operation.



We are almost into another month, and for those of us who don’t like winter, every day brings us closer to spring and warmer temperatures!!! With warmer temps we will be doing more outside so let’s get busy working on those paper projects inside,whether it be scrapbooking or card making let’s get to it!!!

For those of you who have been coming in on a regular basis you all know I’ve been getting several new punches in, that are just beautiful. I’ve been getting new papers and embellishments also. So come on in and take a look, get that extra boost to get motivated to get some projects done. I have also started a blog, thanks to a wonderful customer, Patti Gilliam. It’s just a start but I do have some pictures posted for a few of my cards for next month’s class, so take a look , here is the address, www. Odearmemories.blogspot.com
