Welcome Baby Luca!

Aloha, all!

    This weekend, our Duplicate Bridge club is being introduced to the new baby of one of our members.  We're going to welcome Baby Luca with a gift from the club, including this fun pocket-sized Accordion Fold Album to use to show off baby pictures. 

     You've seen me show off this album style on a couple of occasions.  In fact, I was just looking over my introduction to the tutorial for the album and found that my husband had said last Valentine's Day that this was a great gift for just about any occasion.  And it's just perfect as a little baby gift!

     The nice thing about this album is that you can make what I'm showing off here with just one sheet of 8-1/2" x 11" card stock!  Of course, I added some Designer Series Paper and used a bit more card stock for the "photo corners," but it's still a very economical album to make – AND QUICK!

     For today's album, I used Marina Mist Card Stock, and paper from the Designer Series Paper set, Nursery Nest.  This paper set features some primarily blue (Marina Mist), pink (Blushing Bride) and green (Pear Pizzazz) prints, with a sprinkling of Perfect Plum for its colors.  About those photo corners:  As you know (if you use Stampin' Up! products exclusively, as I do) Stampin' Up! retired its Photo Corners punch this past year.  But they just added a 1" Square Punch, which is what I used as the basis for my photo corners.  I punched some Pear Pizzazz, Whisper White, and Marina Mist 1" squares, cut them on the diagonal, snipped out a triangle on the diagonal, and voila!  I had photo corners!

     To decorate the front of the album, I tied on some Marina Mist Scallop Dots Ribbon, added some Marina Mist lettering which I cut using my Sizzix Big Shot and the Decorative Strip Die, Naturally Serif.  I added a strip of the ribbon on the back, too, to tie the whole look together.  I punched the little flower in the upper right corner of the front with the Boho Blossoms Punch and added a Pear Pizzazz Glimmer Brad as a fun accent.

     I have a one-page tutorial for this Simple Accordion Fold album right here on my blog!  I hope you'll enjoy using it the next time you need a quick and easy "occasion" gift!  Next week I'll show off the Money Card Holder that we're going to use to present the gift to Luca's mom and dad at next Sunday's bridge game.  I'll have a tutorial for that, too!  Be sure to keep an eye out for it!

Yes, I Still Use Bookmarks!

Aloha, all!

     Those who have been around the craft room lately know that one of my favorite possessions is my Kindle eBook reader.  With all the traveling that I'm doing this year, it's sure nice to have to "lug" only one little piece of equipment around with me yet still have at least a half dozen unread books in my purse!

     But that doesn't mean I don't need bookmarks.  For one thing, it's still a lot cheaper to borrow a book from the library.  Even though I can now borrow eBooks, sometimes I just like to go over to our little public library and browse around the shelves and pick up something by an author who is new to me.  For another thing, there are lots of books in my kitchen – cookbooks!  I can have a half dozen or more bookmarks in just one cookbook to mark my favorite recipes!

     So it was a natural for me to join a bookmark swap when one of my online groups organized one last month!

     When it came to designing my own bookmark, I went right for the Stampin' Up! Specialty Designer Series Paper, "First Edition."  The "specialty" part of this paper is that it's a lighter weight than most Designer Series Papers from Stampin' Up!  That doesn't mean that it's not of a high quality, though.  It's just good for projects and accents that require a lighter weight.  In this case, I did need to add a bit of weight to the bookmark, so I mounted a layer of the First Edition paper on either side of some lightweight cardboard (the kind that ships in a package of Designer Series Paper is perfect!). 

     The really fun part about this design was that I decided not to stamp on the bookmark, but to do a little bit of stenciling!  I really like using Stampin' Up!'s Decor Stencils for paper crafting, though you can use them for fabric and furnishings as well.  Once I positioned the stencil, from the Stencil Set, Vintage Ornaments, I inked up a Sponge Dauber with some of the new Island Indigo Classic Ink and sponged away.  I placed the stencil again and made a second image on each side of the bookmark.  I punched some of the Island Indigo Card Stock with the Decorative Label Punch and folded it on each end of the bookmark before punching a hole and added some Very Vanilla 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon at one end. 

     As I write this I'm getting ready to leave home to go to the Stampin' Up! convention in mid-month.  If I receive the other bookmarks back from the swap before I leave, I'll post them for you to see tomorrow!

     Your assignment for today is to go find some fun card stock and make a bookmark – and have fun with it!

A Fancy Favor Bag!

Aloha, all!

     As you read this, I'm out in the middle of just about nowhere, enjoying a vacation in the north woods of Minnesota.  This is a far cry from the Hawaiian Islands that I now call home.  The biggest difference is the length of the day.  In Hawaii, our longest day is only 13-1/2 hours. Up  in our part of the woods in Minnesota, the length of the day will be just shy of about 16 hours, and it stays daylight quite awhile after the sun actually sets. Other things that are different are the types of trees (no palm trees!) and birds (lots more from all those migrations!).

     Another thing that will be very different for me is that I won't have my craft room around!  But I did make sure that I had some papers and inks and stamps to play with while there because there are also going to be my two lovely little granddaughters who have tons of imagination when it comes to planning for just about any family event.  We we'll have invitations, place cards, greeting cards – all kinds of thing – to make while I'm there. 

     One thing that I'm going to do to get ready for all these projects is to cut out a bunch of bags from Stampin' Up!'s Sizzix "Fancy Favor" Die.  I made one with one of Stampin' Up! newest Designer Series Paper set, "Flirtatious."  This is a "specialty" paper set, and the special part of this one is that there are two pages that are made up of lace doilies – and this Pumpkin Pie doily is one of them.  They're all connected together into one 12" square sheet, but they're also very easy to cut apart as I did with this one.

     I made the bag with another of the sheets from the Flirtatious paper set – pretty and lacy!  For the accent color, I added a circle of Chocolate Chip behind the doily, and made the handles and bow from one of Stampin' Up!'s newest 1/2" Scallop Dots Ribbon, also in Chocolate Chip.  It comes in 10 colors, and you can be sure I'll be ordered ALL 10!

     If I can get some pictures of the girls working on the bags – or any of their other projects – I'll be sure to share them with you, but more likely on Facebook or Twitter than here.  So be sure to sign up to follow me on Facebook and Twitter to get the latest of what's going on in my paper crafting and family!

Playful Polka Dots

Aloha, all!

     You're probably not going to believe this , but none of the projects in today's blog post have any stamping on them!  Not a word nor a flower.  With the exception of a piece of ribbon on each item, simply everything that you see in these first three photos is from a Simply Scrappin' Kit that's in the Stampin' Up! 2011 Summer Mini Catalog.  The kit is called Playful Polka Dots, and it certainly is lots of fun – which of course is what "playful" is all about!

     My project for you today is a set of four greeting cards and a box that's made to hold all of them and their envelopes.  And just look at those colors!  I was immediately taken with the color combination – certainly one that I would not have thought up myself.  There are Pumpkin Pie, Rose Red, Daffodil Delight and Old Olive.  The kit comes with two pieces of 12" square textured card stock of each of these colors.  Then there are 3 sheets each of two different Designer Series Papers – double sided, of course.  For this particular project, I just used one side of each piece of the Designer Series paper set.  Finally in this kit are three 12" square sheets of Self-Adhesive Die Cuts including borders, flowers, floral elements and lots and lots of labels.  For this card set I stuck mostly to the flowers, adding in some of the borders and a few of the floral elements such as leaves and stems.  With all of that, there is a TON of stuff left in this kit to make quite a few scrapbook pages and even more cards and boxes!

     I found the pattern for this box in the SUDSOL (Simply Unique Demonstrators Sharing On Line – a group for Stampin' Up! demonstrators) patterns library.  What a fun place that is to look around when you're looking for project ideas!  I was glad I did that because I've never made this box before – but I'll be making it again for sure.  If you're a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, you can join SUDSOL free for two weeks – and check it all out for yourself!  I am just amazed what I've learned from this group and the inspiration that I get from all of the samples posted every day!  (If you're not a Demonstrator and you'd like some instructions for how to make this box and layouts for the cards, check back here during June when I'll have my own set of instructions and card layouts for you to use.)

     Now back to those cards.  The SUDSOL projects library also has ideas for cards to go with the box (click here for the layouts), but the papers are no longer current.  On the other hand, I really liked the layouts, so I tried to copy them as much as possible with the products in this Simply Scrappin' Kit.  You can do the very same thing with any of the projects in the SUDSOL library!  In fact, I'll be adding this set of cards to the library this week to help anyone on SUDSOL with ideas for using the layouts.

     HINT FOR WORKING WITH THE DIE CUTS!!!  Remove the adhesive!  This is so simple to do and it really helps when you are trying to figure out a layout and want to just skootch (that's a stamping technical term) a flower or a leaf just a tiny bit to get it just where you want it.  So how do I do it?  I keep a bowl of Corn Starch on my work table.  For multiple items such as with these flowers, I put out a piece of scrap paper and lay the die-cuts face down.  Then I sprinkle on the corn starch and rub it all over the backs.  Once each back is covered, I pick up the piece and wipe all the remaining corn starch off with a tissue until the back of the die-cut is totally smooth.  Not a whole lot of muss and not a whole lot of fuss.  And you can reapply adhesive such as Stampin' Up! SNAIL or Sticky Strip whenever you want to.  I've heard from others that they use the Stampin' Up! Embossing Buddy for this.  I've tried this and really like the Corn Starch better.

     As I explained earlier, for the first batch of everything, I used only some ribbon and what was in the Simply Scrappin' Kit.  But just to show you how well other Stampin' Up! Embellishments can look with this kit, for this photo op for my cards, I added buttons to the centers of several of the flowers.  Just a little bit of shine really starts to make these cards pop beyond what those fab colors do for them!  The only thing that I think I'll add from here are perhaps some greetings.  As it stands now, I'll be keeping this set of cards to show off to people who come to the craft room.  But some day I'll need a Get Well card or a Thinking of You card – and I can just pull out a greetings stamp set and add something right on the spur of the moment!

     You should try one of these kits!  If you like one that's in the Stampin' Up! Catalog this year, now's the time to buy one – because they're very likely to be retired at the end of June!  For sure, check back here on June 1st and I'll let you know which ones you might want to get right away! 

     As always, whatever you do, whether it's with paper and ink or a Simply Scrappin' Kit, have fun with it!

Addendum to my Flip Fold Video

Aloha, all!

     Last week I published a video tutorial demonstrating how to make my Mini Flip Fold Album.  (The video is on my Facebook page.  Just click here and you'll see it in my February 25, 2011, post.)  Those of you who have had a chance to view it may have noticed that I started out using lots of adhesive as I would with a "real" project.  Then I realized  that this was just a demo album which I had printed with the letters A, B, C and D to show you how I was putting the album together.  So it was a demo project; no need for all that adhesive!

     This afternoon I proved myself wrong in the latter thought.  I was cleaning up my table to make another video and was about to toss the sample project.  But wait – that was a piece of Confetti Cream Card Stock I'd used to make that sample!  And, yes, it had stuff printed on it.  But I could cover up the printing with some Designer Papers!  And so I did, and here is the final project.  The stamps on the cover element are from the Level 2 Hostess Stamp Set Apple Blossoms.  Love this layout – I used it in the first batch of thank you notes to those who bought my Card Layout eBook.

     But I digress.  On the inside, I didn't need to add any papers to the small flaps (that I like to use for journaling) because the paper is a nice light color.  But I did add a stamp from the Stamp Set, Artistic Etchings, to decorate the flaps a bit.  And I decorated the remaining pages of the album with some more of the Jolly Holiday Designer Series Papers – the paper is nice and thick and hides those printed letters beautifully!

     Those of you who might have paid really close attention to my video may have noticed that the last few "scenes" showed the pieces of card stock with the circled letters, but without the dashed lines that I had originally shown as the locations for scoring.  The story behind that is that I put the first set of papers together – adhesives and all – without remembering to turn on the camera.  Stupid, stupid.  Those pages I DID throw away.  They weren't going anywhere but in the trash, especially as I crushed them when I realized I done all that demo for nothing!  And it was a better job, too!  OK, take a deep breath, Robin.

     So – no dashed lines here that I had to cover up.  And I have yet another lovely album to give away as a gift!  Just need to add some photos.

     I hope you had a great weekend with lots of crafting time!  I'm about to get very busy with all the challenge projects that I have to get done before I leave on a trip next week.  But I'm going to have fun with them all – as I hope you do with all of YOUR craft projects!

A Valentine for my Husband

Aloha, all!

     As many of you know, my husband was quite ill for most of 2010.  It really made us both focus on how precious is our time together.  For this Valentine's Day, I decided that a card was not enough.  During the past year we had many opportunities to be together in places and times where we had our pictures taken together, more than is normal for us!  So an album of some photographs of our times together in 2010 seemed to be just the thing.

     This album is a simple Accordion Album, made with one piece of Stampin' Up! Card stock, and decorated with papers from the Sweet Stitches Designer Series Paper Set, featured in the Stampin' Up! 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog.  The quote for the front of this album – the perfect quote for it! – is from the Level 3 Hostess Stamp Set, Occasional Quotes.  I punched the flowers from the same paper set and added a Sweet Stitches Fabric Brad, also from the Occasions Mini Catalog.

     Inside the album are six photos.  The two on the left were taken on a March 2010 trip to the island of Maui.  The middle two photographs were taken while Harry was in the hospital on the island of O'ahu, with the 4th picture taken the evening before his surgery in June.  His surgery was to take place on his birthday, so we celebrated a day early – the reason he's wearing a lei!  The 5th photo was taken on an October trip to visit the property in Lawrence, Kansas, where his grandparents had their dairy farm when Harry was a child.  The final photograph – and a tribute to his having made it through a very difficult year – was taken in December when we visited the island of Kaua'i.

     I wrote the notes on pieces of Whisper White card stock which I printed from images made with My Digital Studio.  The stamp set that includes these images, Notes and Details, is also available in the Occasions Mini Catalog.  These were just perfect for my hand-written journaling in this little album.

     When you're thinking of making cards and gifts, don't forget that small albums such as these are oh so quick and easy to make!  And they are often just the most perfect gift you can give someone.  Certainly the perfect gift for my husband this Valentine's day 2011!

     Have you seen the word, "Perfect," all through this blog post!  It's really a tribute to a perfect husband.

     Happy Valentine's Day!

The Occasion is Valentine’s Day!

Aloha, all!

     And welcome to the SUDSOL Blog Tour!  SUDSOL is an online group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators to which I belong and it's one of the best groups for Stampin' Up! demonstrators on the web right now.  I don't have an active upline for my demonstratorship, and SUDSOL has become my 24/7 upline (one of their tag lines, and it's well deserved!)

     Today's Blog Tour features many, many members of SUDSOL, all of whom are showing off projects that we've made with products from Stampin' Up!'s 2011 Occasions Mini Catalog, which runs through April 30th of this year, or the Sale-A-Bration catalog, which runs through the end of March.  I really wish I could show off ALL of the products in these catalog because they're some of the best ever minis!  But instead, I'm going to focus on one of the "occasions" featured in the Occasions mini, and that's Valentine's Day.  In particular, I'm going to show off the Specialty Designer Series Paper set, Love Impressions, along with a few other items from the mini.

     Two of the projects I'm featuring today are mini photo albums, that can also be decorated and sent out in standard A2 size envelopes as Valentine Cards for someone special.  The patterns for both of these albums are available on the SUDSOL website, which is available only for SUDSOL members (or those who choose to sign up for a Two-Week FREE trial membership!). The third project is unabashedly a greeting card, and I had a lot of fun figuring out the design for it.

     Fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator, Ann Clemmer, demonstrated the first project as a presenter at a Stampin' Up! regional seminar.  It is a mini book that is so easy and so economical to make!  The inside of the book uses just one piece of card stock or designer paper, and you can decorate it with scraps from other projects – just as I did! 

I decorated the front of this little book with one of the designs from the Love Impressions Designer Paper Set, and layered on a stamped definition of Valentine that's found in the brand new stamp set, Valentine Defined (who would have figured that?!)  To give the front just a bit of pizzazz, I added Whisper White Brads, that are part of the Neutrals Brad set in the annual Stampin' Up! catalog.  The cover of the book is a piece of Textured Real Red Card Stock that was a scrap from an earlier project.  I NEVER throw any kind of leftovers away!  The book is tied closed with a piece of Real Red 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon.  I like how the white edge of this ribbon "ties" in with the rest of the decor.

     Inside there are enough pages to hold 6 photos and 6 pages of journaling – journaling is SO important in any kind of a memory book, no matter how small!

     The second project I'm sharing with you is also a photo album or greeting card, but it's a bit more labor intensive.  Nonetheless, it calls for only one piece of 12" square card stock and one piece of 12" square Designer Series Paper (guess which Designer Series Paper I used!)

Now I know it doesn't look much different on the front from the first album, except for the decorations.  But it's just slightly larger (this is a 4" square album, and the mini book is a 3" square album).  What's really different is what's inside.

But let's just take a quick look at the front before we look inside.  The heart in the center of the front is punched with Stampin' Up!'s Full Heart Punch, using the brand new Red Glimmer Paper from the Occasions Mini.  I matted it with a piece of Whisper White card stock cut with the Stampin' Up! exclusive Sizzix Embosslit, Scalloped Heart of Hearts.  What's really fun about this album front is the full border using the Scallop Trim Border and Scallop Trim Corner punches.  To find the right measurement to make the corner and border punches work perfectly together, I just headed for the SUDSOL files and there it was!  Oh, and that paper with the embossed hearts?  It's one of the "Specialty" papers in the designer series paper set!  Just gorgeous paper!  And everything's tied together with some Whisper White 5/8" Satin Ribbon.

     OK, now let's look at the inside of this album.

     Look at all those folds!  And you wouldn't believe how simple it is to make.  I know because I wrote my own version of the instructions for this album and then followed them and it took no time to get the basic album put together.  Now figuring out just the right paper for each page, and the right stamps for my journaling blocks – I did pray over that a bit.  But it was fun (I try not to do things that aren't fun!).  The stamps are also from the Valentine Defined Stamp Set, so you can see I've been making good use of that set!  And about that set of instructions – here it is! 

     And finally here's a greeting card using the other one of the "Specialty" sheets from the Love Impressions Specialty Designer Series Paper set.  The letters of the alphabet cover this sheet of paper, with the letters L, O, V, and E, highlighted in Whisper White on one side.  Unfortunately, you can't just cut that section out and put it on a 5-1/2" x 4-1/4" greeting card (portrait OR landscape).  But I really did want to use them on a card.  So I cut them out individually!  Here I punched them with the Small Tag Punch, matted them with some Pretty in Pink Card Stock, some of it punched with the Pinking Hearts Border Punch.  I "tied" the tags on with some Pretty in Pink 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon onto the other paper from the Love Impressions set, and tied the whole card front together with Pretty in Pink 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon.  The final touch was the "U" cut out of the designer paper.

     These were all SOOO much fun to make.  And I still have a big stack of paper left over from the Designer Series Paper Set!  More fun for February! If you don't have some of this fun paper, you can just order it online right now – and then go have some fun with it yourself!

     You can find these projects and many, many, many more in my very own gallery on the SUDSOL Website!  Just click here for a two-week FREE TRIAL!

A Little Bit of Fun

Aloha, all!

     What a week this past one was, and the coming week will be just about the same – packed with non-crafting activities!  I was able to squeeze in enough time to make all the packets for my Stamp-A-Stack class on Saturday, and we all had a lot of crafting fun then.  But that was about it until tonight.  After a day out with my dh, I came home and said, "I just have to get my hand in some ink!"  The good news was that I had a practical excuse for doing just that. 

     At Christmas time, one of the handmade gifts I made for some friends were bookmarks made with 4" paperclips.  What fun I had using the Jolly Bingo Bits stamp set to make those bookmarks (and that set will be back with us come the 2011-2012 Stampin' Up! Idea Book and Catalog!).  Then last week one of those friends asked if it would be possible for me to make a few more for her to give to her friends.  In fact it was possible, because during the holidays I had mislaid one of the packs of paperclips – or else they would have been among the Christmas gifts!  But what stamp set would be a good one for a fun little bookmark without a holiday theme?

     It didn't take long before I touched my stamp set, For Everything.  It has just the cutest little motifs and I could do them up in a variety of colors.  So I made two each of the little bird (in Real Red and Pretty in Pink, with a Marina Mist Flower); the sunflower (or at least that's what I made it out to be with More Mustard and Chocolate Chip (including the brad), with a Pumpkin Pie accent color; and the 6-petal flower made with Marina Mist and a Pretty in Pink brad and accent color.

     This was fun, and just the kind of thing I needed to make after a busy weekend!  I hope to have a couple of hours to myself tomorrow for some crafting time, but that may be it until next Sunday night!  I'll be out of town (which where I live means I'll be hopping a plane to go to another island) for half of the week, and busy with some volunteer work most of the rest of the time.  But then I have to get ready for my Folded Album Class on the 29th.  I can hardly wait to share those projects with you!

     And however busy you are this week with work or other activities, I hope you have time to have a little bit of fun – and do something creative!

Countdown to Christmas! Day 12 – A Quick Christmas Album!

Aloha, all!

     While I promised that I would post every day between December 1st and Christmas Day, I am about to be the recipient of a surprise gift from my dear husband, who is whisking me off to the island of Kaua'i tomorrow.  I've known about this for over a week, but I really thought (in this busy season, no less!) that I'd have time to make projects and post them while I was gone.  Hah!  I can hear my dear late mother saying that as I say, "I've got another think coming!"

     So I will be absent from my craft room and my computer desk until Thursday.  I'm even probably going to miss the Diva Coffee Break Challenge this week, but I'm still not certain about that.  Depends on how quickly I can pack this evening.

     For today, though, I thought I'd share a new take on an old pattern, which some call an "explosion" album.  I'm not sure what's exploding, but it sounds fun!  I'd thought of it as an Accordion Album for a long time.  So now I've decided to call it an Accordion Explosion Album, and I've had the tutorial here on my blog for quite some time.  I even updated it a bit last spring. 

     For this week, I've used my quickly dwindling supply of the Candy Cane Lane Designer Paper set to make an album that will be cute to hold Christmas photos of my grandchildren (assuming I can pry them out of my children's cameras!)  There is space for six photos on this album, 4 on the inside folds and 2 on the outside.  With five grandchildren, I may even be able to squeeze in a photo of our pets if I can get them both in the same place at the same time (not that pets are the equivalent of grandchildren; but they do make cute pictures).

     I made the little bird on the cover with the Two-Step Bird Punch, even using the wing part of the punch to make the little santa hat that makes him look like the other little birdies printed on the paper.  The papers that I placed on the inside squares of the album (and the outside, but you can't see the back of the album) are the reverse of the same paper that I used on the cover.

     I really do like making a cover for these little albums, more than just folding the album and using it without a separate cover.  The light cardboard with which Designer Papers come packaged are great for this purpose – just cover them with some matching or coordinating paper, and you've got a project that seems a lot more elegant than the plain album.

     If you'd like to try one of these yourself, the one-page tutorial is right here!  Lots of fun to make and even to give as gifts!

     I hope you're going to have as much fun this week as I plan to have on our little mini-vacation!  I won't be doing much crafting, but I'll make up for it when I get back!  Have a great week!

Countdown to Christmas! Day 4: A Stocking Stuffer

Aloha, all!

     Back around Halloween, a lot of my fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators and I had a fun time making boxes to hold the purse-sized bottles of Bath and Body Works' seasonal hand sanitizers.  Well, I just could not wait until I could get my hands on some Christmas versions.   And I did – I ordered up 50 of the bottles, not having a clue about what I was going to do with them. 

     Then came the opportunity to participate in a local craft fair (which is today, by the way!).  But with 50 of them, I didn't want to make as large a box as I'd made for the very few Halloween bottles I'd bought.  So I fussed a bit with the original pattern that I shared in my Halloween tutorial and came up with the smaller version I needed.  The tutorial is right here for you to enjoy!

     I used stamps from the oh-so-much-fun Jolly Bingo Bits stamp set in the Stampin' Up! 2010 Holiday Mini Catalog.  Stampin' Up! has said that this stamp set is going to be around for awhile, and I can hardly wait to see what they do with stamps for other holidays!  But for now, I'm really enjoying using this set THIS holiday season.  And you'll be seeing some more of it over the next few days as I share more of what we did with the Craft Fair!  I also used the last of my dwindling supply of the Candy Cane Lane Designer Papers.  Boo – Stampin' Up! has run out of it!!  But I have enough for my Stampin-A-Stack session next weekend in Robin's Craft Room.  There's still room for 1 more person in the class (well, I might be able to squeeze one more in after that). So, if you're on the East Side of Hawaii's Big Island, and you'd like to come, just give me a call (808.854.6145) or send an e-mail and I'll sign you up!

     Whatever you're doing this weekend, have a LOT of fun with it!
