Just thought I'd show you the nice display for the Basic Grey POTM supplies (along with my first month's page finally finished!)

And for those of you who haven't been in the store in the last few weeks, this is the wonderful vinyl "wall art" Jeannette Scheiser gave to Jan and Cheryl for Christmas.

I've gotten a start on February's POTM kit - the right side is done. I love the colors! The theme for March will be "A Day in My Life" and April will be "All My Quirks". I'll post the layouts and the picture sizes shortly.

That's it for now. Remember to call/email, etc to reserve your space!!!

Sick, sick, sick!!!

I guess we should have a "rule" that we can't all get sick at the same time!!! Bev, Nancy and Jan (who's been sick too) have been holding down the fort the last few weeks.

So, here's the latest goings on at Cj's.

Tomorrow night, the 9th, we will be doing the Super
Bowl Snack layout again. As always, please call to let us know if you're coming.

Wed morning and Thur. evening we will be having our Card Club.
We'll be making Thank You cards that will be stamped.

On Saturday, Heather will be doing a Paper Bag Album for kids, ages 4 and up. And it's FREE!

Tuesday the 17th and Thursday the 26t6h we will be doing the Weather Outside is Frightful layout with the cute snowmen.

There will be a Valentine layout on Thursday the 19th and Sunday the 22nd.

Kim's Pizza layout will be on Monday the 23rd.

And - the most fun project we've done - the Basic Grey POTM Party will be on Tuesday the 24th and Saturday the 28. This has been soooo much fun!! I'm enjoying it even more than I thought I would :) I'll post the pics and the photo sizes for March and April probably tonight, along with some of the other projects.
