Well, here it goes - our very first video - it’s by no means professional, but we had fun making it for all of you.  And, btw, I will apologize in advance for the amount of times I say *love* and *awesome.*  (insert embarrassed red face here)  I had no idea until I listened to it.

And, just so you know, all of these products are now available on the shopping page in the District Market section and the cargo and trinket cases are available here.

Paul is an avid golfer, and he loves that we live so close to the Miami Golf and Country Club.  Me, not so much, I have gone out a few times, but I still haven’t quite got the *swing* of things.  This year, I am determined to go out and give it my all to see if I can get better at this sport, and also to see if I can understand the obsession with this game.

This year Paul was nominated for and accepted the position of Vice President for the Club.  He is looking forward to this, and hopes that the Club will have a successful year.  The Club does have a little pro shop, but I thought it would be cool to add a little something to it - something from us as a little donation.  Because Paul is so into this sport, I know how hard it is to find a golf themed card or gift card holder.  So, I have taken it upon myself to make and donate some cards for them to sell in their little Pro shop.

I started them this weekend, so far I have made 22 cards, and I would like to show you a few of them to get your feedback.

When you open this one up, it has a little envelope to insert a gift card, and it says *You’re Tee-Riffic*

This one says, Have a Happy Day, Have a Happy Day, Have a Happy One in a Million Day, Have a Happy Day on the inside.

This one is blank inside.

This one also says *You’re Tee-Riffic* on the inside with the same alphas.

This one is blank inside.

This one says *Remember your age is still lower than your score … Happy Birthday* on the inside of the card.

Update from the LIITD store - we are almost finished re-vamping the paper section - and then will be re-vamping the rest of the shopping page.  But, before we continue re-vamping the rest of the shopping page, we do have some new things to list.

Happy Thursday!

Norine has had lots of fun playing with October Afternoon’s line - Sidewalks.  I love October Afternoon, I love their papers - both sides are always so usable.  This Sidewalks line is so bright and cheery, and as Norine shows us, there is so many things you can do with it.

Quoting Norine ~~ “All paper is from the October Afternoon Sidewalks line, as well as the lace trim and button. The cupcake chipboard shapes are from Maya Road. Nestability die and Sizzix embossing folder and rub on are from my own stash”

Quoting Norine ~~ “All paper and butcher twine from October Afternoon Sidewalks line, sentiment tag by Elle’s Studio. Crocheted flowers by American Crafts Dear Lizzy, leaf - Bazzill, my own stash.”

Quoting Norine ~~ “All papers and butterfly are from the October Afternoon Sidewalks line. Phrase tag is from Elle’s Studio, fabric brad is Amy Tangerine, chipboard frame - Maya Road, Nestability die and cork from my own stash. Oh! And I got to play with my new (old) Creative Memories Octagon punches the I won on eBay!!”

Quoting Norine ~~ “This layout uses the paper line from October Afternoon Sidewalks and the flower sack die cut shapes. I lined them up and sewed them together to create a banner/swag, and added some Dear Lizzy crocheted doilies and flowers. Buttons are also OA Sidewalks. All the alphabet stickers and chipboard are from my own stash.”

Norine, I am truly loving what you have done with these papers and embellishments.  The cards are bright and cheery, and I just adore how you made the banner on the layout.  Seeing your creativity has given me the incentive to get into my scraproom.  Thank you for sharing these gorgeous designs with us.
