Some of you may not have heard, but one of the Pink Ladies, Sandy Toomsen, was injured earlier this month when she was robbed by two men in front of her home in Waterloo. She had just arrived home from work and one grabbed her from behind while the other grabbed her purse. The purse got wrapped around her wrist and she was drug down the street until it came loose. In the process, she tore a muscle and broke her right shoulder. She is currently off work for 8 weeks while she recovers. Unfortunately, she is not able to scrapbook at this time and we are not sure how long it will be before she is able to again as she will need to heal and then go through physical therapy. Feel free to send your get well wishes to her at cruisin2335@aol.com. We will let you all know once we are able to resume crops again.

Muffin Tin Advent Calendar
I just had to share this idea from Carolee's Creations. There are so many ways you can make this your own project. Enjoy!
Mini Muffin Tin Advent Calendar (as featured on Carolee's Creations blog at Scrabook.com)....
1.Start by purchasing a muffin tin with 24 cups - I found a mini muffin tin.
2. Cut Carolee’s Creations #22067 Holly Jolly Countdown patterned paper into squares. (Or use any Christmas paper and stamp your own numbers on each square or use a Cricut to create the numbers for each square.) Mount onto 30 mil. magnet sheets covering the entire square.
3. Embellish each square with metal accents, stickers, jewels, ribbon, etc.
4. Drill holes into the top of the muffin tin. Use ribbon to hang advent calendar as shown.
5. Fill each tin with candy (or trinkets) to be revealed throughout the month of December.
