Randy & I at the ETMC Award Banquet Thursday night. I am working on my 11th year with ETMC and received my 10 year pin at the banquet. Randy has been with ETMC 16 years and has never received a pin at an Award Banquet (and he didn't this year either, he went as my honored guest)

I took one Thank You note and adhered it to chipboard (which I cut with the Big Shot). I added an "A" (chipboard covered in pink cardstock) for Aniston and embellished the front of her scrapbook using the die cut and other ribbon pieces.

Thank You notes that mom and Shelbi made using the Big Shot Top Note Die. They stamped footprints using the Bleaching Technique described on page 104 of the new Stampin' Up catalog, then added ribbon.

Precious crochet footprint washcloth that my mom made.

Pink Roses from Randy

The Great American Cookie Company does a body good! My treat to him.

For 24 Sundays between now and Nov. 15th, you will find me on the couch in front of the big screen with my feet propped up (If i'm not seeing the NHRA event live). Love drag racing!!! Randy & I have a plan to visit each track within the next few years. Thus far Houston, Dallas, & Bristol, TN have been terrific. This year we want to go to North Carolina Zmax and Florida. For now, I'll just tune into ESPN2.

AND I MADE A FEW CANDY TREAT BAGS FOR A CHOCOLATE SWAP I'LL BE ATTENDING FRIDAY NIGHT. I USED TURTLES, BUTTERFINGERS, AND BABYRUTH MINI BARS.

LAST NIGHT I WAS BUSY MAKING GOODIE BAGS FOR MY COWORKER. I USED THE BIG SHOT AND SCALLOP DIE FOR THE TOPPERS. I FILLED THE BAGS WITH A FRUIT & NUT MIXTURE.
