Well, what a disappointment...I went out to pick up a 6x6 Christmas paper pack and Michael's, AC Moore & Joanne's don't have them out yet. You will have to look at the same old paper I've had for several years now. Bummer.

Hobby Lobby has some...not sure how to far away they are from you! (Mostly they look very similar to last years.)

Thanks Trudi. Hobby Lobby is out of my way but if I catch up on all my work in the morning, maybe I'll take a run up there.

Not crop related, but just a reminder that there is a Pop-up Monday challenge that ends Sunday night.

prayers please

Ladies (since our beloved Prince of Paper seems to be absent this crop), I apologize that I've also been pretty much absent all week. Actually, it's been a horrendous week... and weekend. We are short-staffed at the office so I am doing extra work to fill all the required grant deliverable (usually 50-60 hours a week, plus just had to teach a class this Saturday.. so I'm exhausted.) Add the stress of my sweet hubby's deteriorating health due to being in the final stage of MS and life is pretty tough right now.

I did create a few cards yesterday after my sweet hubby realized my stress level and suggested that I needed some "Craft room time!" So I was able to submit a few in the crop challenges. That was fun.

We hope to hear about a grant that will allow me to hire a few new staff. But until then, I might not be able to be as active as I have been. Just wanted to give you an explanation... and also to ask for prayers. Thanks!

Kathy, so sorry to hear it's a difficult time for you in all aspects. We love you here and so glad you were able to get a little time to de-stress. Much love and lots of prayers to you and Rich.
