CRASH TEST MOMMYIn October, I was lucky enough to participate in an episode of Crash Test Mommy, a new reality series from the Life Network - you can see some of the photos I took in the November newsletter. The latest update I have of the episode featuring Leanne Bishop from RubyDog's Arthouse and I is that it will air on the Life Network the week of March 12, 2005.

June
11 & 12, 2005 This retreat is more than half full! Don't wait too long! The workshop for this retreat will be the
Copper Book, which we will do on Saturday and Sunday. The Spa evening at the hotel will include
facials, snacks and the possibility of libations!
I am arranging massages, as well, but move over, I'm first in line! (kidding!)

please email me at retreat@quietfiredesign.com and please put Retreat
in your Subject Line! Thanks! You can see more of the Copper Book creations in the Class Photos section of my website. |

I''m not frightened, although it's hot - I have all that I requested
and I do not want what I haven't got. |

Back in Stock! Spatulas - I love these! I use this spatula for so many things! I apply glue with it, I undo staples with it, I fish bits of paper out of my punches with it.... You get the idea! I'm lost without it. Now you have the opportunity to have one, too! It's a sturdy one, made of stainless steel. It's here at a new improved price, too!

Winter Challenge Swap! Vintage!
Don't forget, if you've signed up for the Vintage ATC swap..... Due date: March 1, 2005 to me at Quietfire Design, Box 1231, Port Alberni, BC Canada V9Y 7M1 |
Valentine MingleOn the spur of the moment, the byhandartists decided to have a Valentine Mingle! We made a list and the person on top sent one Valentine-themed ATC on to the next person on the list and that person made an ATC and sent it to the next person and so on. Each of us just had to make one ATC but if we just happened to have an ATC or two left over from our creative blitz, we could RAK other members of the list. Here are some of the wonderful results! More next month! |
