Hey all, as many of my regular customers know, I use Fastwagon to digitally deliver my classes for me.  If you have never ordered from me, I just wanted to share this information with you.  I know a lot of you out there sell your own crafting classes.  How would like to not be chained to your email all day checking to see if you got any orders?  How would you like to take a vacation and not worry about emailing orders to people?  If so, then I have the thing for you.

Fastwagon is a great digital delivery service that charges only $8 a month!  Can you believe it?  Other similar services not only charge you a monthly fee, but they also charge you based on your sales.  Not Fastwagon!  They charge $8 and that's it!  Unlimited sales.  For $8 a month, you get plenty of online storage for your files (I have many classes and have only used 3% of my capacity).

I've been happily using Fastwagon for almost 2 years and have discovered how truly exceptional it is.  John, the owner, provides exceptional service.  He always quickly replies to inquiries and issues and is always looking for feedback from his customers on how to make the service better.  For example, I was looking for a coupon option and he added it to the service.  He has helped me so much over the past 2 years that I want to help him in return by promoting the service I truly believe in and support!

I encourage you to check out the service and sign up.  You have nothing to lose since he lets you try the service out for a week for free.  If it's not for you, you can easily cancel your subscription on paypal with no other obligation.

I hope your Freaky Friday wasn't too freaky! Mine started out pretty freaky since I couldn't get blogger to work and share my inspiration posts.  Today, I'm sharing some great tutorials I found online. Enjoy!

In honor of National Scrapbooking Month, the Craft Project Central bonus project this month is a really neat Scrapbook in a Box!  Lift the handle on the box and you have a 6" x 6" album tucked away inside!  This is a perfect Mother’s Day gift, or you could even make it up as a special teacher appreciation gift for the end of the school year (which I think for a lot of kids is coming up soon!).   Whoever you give this pretty gift to is sure to love it!  Makes for a fun class project as well.  This lovely project was designed by Sharon.  To get the step by step tutorial, please visit Craft Project Central HERE and subscribe to May.  $10 for 10 projects is a super bargain!

Hello all, sorry for the delay.  Blogger was not playing nice today!  This week's Peachy Keen Let's Face it Friday challenge was to use our face stamps to create a project to get organized!  This one was a really tough one since I am so UNorganized!  To see all of the wonderfully creative projects from the rest of the team, please check it out at the challenge site HERE.  Join the challenge for a fabulous prize!

Today's project is my contribution to Craft Project Central.  This isn’t your usual Post-it Notes cover!

This cute little project with matching pen is a perfect teacher gift and is a fun class or club project!  For the full color step by step instructions, please visit Craft Project Central HERE and subscribe to May.

Hi all, I hope you don't mind that I don't have any inspiration links today.  I spent all day yesterday with my daughter and Mom, so I didn't have time to surf the internet for ideas to share.

I will be working long hours at my full time job the next couple weeks.  Hopefully I'll be able to set up my blog posts during my lunch breaks so I can continue to share links every day.  If I miss a day or 2, you will know why.

My next project is coming up this Friday for the Peachy Keen LFIF challenge.  Thanks for hanging with me!

Oh, and you may have noticed my new blog design.  What do you think?

Happy Mother's Day to all of you mother's out there!  Today I am going to relax and hopefully get a little bit of pampering.....
