Nikki's Stampin' Studio

Baby Emma

I hope everyone enjoyed their Halloween!  We had a really nice time with my family.  It was my nephew's birthday and all the kids carved pumpkins, wiener roast, got their costumes on and went trick or treating.  Kylee and Chelsea had a lot of fun.  I know I need to post some pics . . .

I go into the hospital tomorrow morning to be induced.  I can't wait to see Emma Grace.  I'm so anxious and I know daddy can't wait.  He loves his girls.  I'll be posting pics as soon as she arrives.  We know that she will weigh at least 9 lbs.  I'm not looking forward to that part :-)  Zachary was my biggest and he weighed 8 lbs 11 oz.  - but he was 21 1/2 inches long.  That was big enough . . .

Thanks for stopping by.  I'm gonna head to bed early and try and get some sleep before the big day.  It always seems too good to be true - until they hand you the little miracle

I really like the deals this week!  I love the mini library clips!  Lots of uses.

Hopefully, by the end of the week I'll be able to have my newsletter sent to all my wonderful customers.  So sorry that it's taking longer this 1st time.  There's a learning curve to 2 of the programs that I'm using.  Thanks for understanding :-)

My next class is my Christmas Extravaganza on December 3rd.  I'm finishing up my mini scrapbook and I'm liking this version much better!  I've used the Write Stuff DSP with the die cuts and it is looking so cute.  The DSP is very verstile - girl or boy.  You'll use the square scallop die with our longboard chipboard then the Zutter to bind the book.  So, it's a lot different.  The class is $20.00 for 4 projects.  You'll be making a photo cube,  a Fancy Favors bag with tags using the new SU tag die, an embelished treat bag from the catalog, and a mini scrapbook using the SU Square Scallop die, the Write Stuff DSP - I'll be posting pictures as soon as I finish the mini scrapbook.  There's only 6 more openings for the class.  Payment at time of registration is required for this class.  I'll be preordering lots of materials for this class.  Oh, the class is now being held in my Stamping Studio - NOT the Pekin Library.

As soon as little Emma Grace arrives I'll have lots of pictures to share with you using the new My Digital Studio.  I'm loving the new My Digital Studio.  SO easy peasy to use.

Thanks for stopping by!
