Julian Snow Day



We decided to take Jennifer to Julian to see the snow for the first time. She had a blast stomping on every pile of snow we walked by. We ate lunch at the coffee shop, they have the best sandwiches. Then we browsed around and picked up a few souvenirs on our way to the Julian Pie Company. Jennifer started an impromptu snowball fight with a little boy while we were waiting in line for our pies. It ended quickly when she miss aimed and hit a man on the back that was sitting near the war zone. Thankfully he was good humored and chuckled at the incident. Jennifer had a big day meltdown on the way home but perked up and was ready to enjoy some apple pie as soon as we walked in the door. We all had a great time!!!

Edge Distressing with Scissors

This Tuesday I thought I would take a cue from one of our past WOTG and show you how to edge distress with Scissors. First you will need a pair of Scissors. I love our Micro-Tip Scissors (Z534) they only cost $9.95 a pair. take your scissors and open them all the way. Hold your scissors in one hand and your paper or Cardstock in the other. Run the blade of your scissors along the edge of your paper until you get the desired effect like shown in these pictures.
