New Graphic 45 Papers for Halloween . . . The Magic of Oz

Straight from Graphic 45, I've learned the "Magic of Oz" is their new paper collection for Halloween. It ships next month, so you'll have to wait a little bit but I wanted you to see the new 'magic' coming our way . . .

"Tender-Hearted Tin Man"

"Goblin Gazette"

"Scatterbrained Scarecrow"

"The Magic of Oz" will also feature coordinating cling stamps from Hampton Art and Graphic 45. Take a look at these adorable and fun images! Just image the fun you could have with these gorgeous stamps!

 Looks like we're going to have some fun doing another Halloween project at Art 'n Soul!

Etsumi and Kazuko departed from home yesterday . . . they are sorely missed by all of us. It was difficult to say 'bye-bye' at the airport.

Kazuko loaded up and ready to check-in at SeaTac. Unfortunately,
it was tooo early in the morning to take a decent pic of Etsumi . . .
we left the house at 5:00 a.m. so Etsumi could check in at 6:00 a.m.
When you're accustomed to only ONE 5:00 and 6:00 on your clock dial,
as in P.M., it's difficult to do anything other than what's totally necessary!

The evening before, Katzuko and Etsumi prepared a dinner for Helene, Susie and I. Etsumi and Kazuko did all of the preparation and we joined in when it was time to eat. OMG, it was such a feast! I did take notes on their recipes and I am very anxious to try it all again, very soon!

We're headed out now . . . I'll post more pics, hopefully tonight!

On the road again . . .
