I’m still breathing; I promise. …but when was the last time I was able to take a nice long breath?! It must have been before I decided to open a store in the Bay. No, I’m not complaining!
I’m just saying that I feel so blessed with how everything has been since I opened my doors. Lots of new (and familiar) faces have been keeping me on my toes.
Anyway… last night, Hambly hosted their Holiday Open House event. It was a blast! Tons of people enjoyed the seasonal festivities. My store, Our Paper Place, was present at the event, and I came out to teach a really cute make-n-take, which by the way was a hit! For those of you who missed it, I will be teaching it at the store at our Holiday “Grand Opening” on December 18th. There will be a limited amount of banners, so make sure to get there earlier in the day! Afterwards, Suzy, Holly, and I went out to “celebrate” my store opening for the 129480923867th time.
((Good time, girls!))
Here are some of the pictures from last night:







If you’re in the area, you should hit up the next Hambly event. It’s totally worth going to especially if you’re there to see me, haha! Just kiddin’.
…but no joke, it’s such a great event!
I’m back to teaching my sketch class in January except this time I’ll be over at my store. We’ll be working with one of Becky’s Pagemaps! Details on this one will be posted soon, so stay tuned. I went Pink Paislee happy on this one.


Okay, that’s it for tonight. A girl’s gotta come up for air now…
