More July Birthday cards…..

I think my birthday has come to an end for this year….actually I think I’m glad. Maybe this is the year I should start forgetting my age. LOL!

Update on Creative Escape…..I am hoping by this coming weekend to have confirmations out for you to give me stamp bundles, crafting preferences, craftmates, bedmates, food allergies and needs. I most keenly realize the time and am taking one thing at a time to see you at the beach in September! :)

If you DO NOT have a July - December mini holiday catalog and SAB brochure…..PLEASE contact me and I’ll get one in the mail to you!

Also, please like and share me on YouTube, FaceBook, and Instagram. It is appreciated! Thank you in advance!

I am planning a card buffet at the end of the month (August) but not in September….stay tuned for dates.

Team Meeting is coming up! Saturday, August 14th at 10 AM. We will be meeting at Park Street United Methodist Church, 120 Park Street, Belmont NC. This is where we meet the last time and because of their summer schedule, the only available time slot in August. I will plan to Zoom on August 14th at 4 PM for those who are not able to meet in person. I will need to know who wants to Zoom so that I can send invites and how many will attend in person. If you would like to make swaps, the theme is anything SAB or July - December catalog….have fun!
