Tiki will be in San Jose on February 21st for the Original Rubber Stamp Convention. It's a smaller venue, but with a lot of different vendors. If you are in the area, please visit her. She always brings out new demo boards to share. Wish I could go!
You will have plenty of time for Easter stamping when the RSC comes to Carson, Ca. on March 14th-15th. Easter is April 12th this year so there's plenty of time to create.
Hope everyone is healthy and stamping up some cute Valentine's cards and holiday favors! If you have the time, I would love to see your creations and if you would like to share, I will gladly post them! Email me!
Happy Valentine's Day to you and yours!

Rolling Riceballs Recipe Book 2009
Our little group of eight met yesterday for our 2nd annual Recipe Cookbook get together at Vicki's. This year's theme was Appetizers and Desserts. Each of us prepared one of our recipes and shared it at the party. It was a great mix of food and everyone went home with a beautiful hand-crafted book and full tummies. Always good eating at these events! Thanks again to Vicki for opening up her home and to Mona for use of her binding machine. We have decided next year's theme already. Potluck dishes! Our next card making meeting will be using a "sketch" for one of the cards and an open design for the second. It'll be fun to see everyone's interpretation of the layout.
Guess you can pick out the pages I made... lol
Happy New Year!

Last Make it Take it and Show of the Year!
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Delicious holiday. We are very fortunate and have a lot to be thankful for!
The girls and I got together and had a "tag and card make it and take it." Everyone designed a Christmas tag and a card and made kits for everyone to make. We each designed a memory book page for Vicki's **th birthday scrapbook with a small twist, we included a favorite recipe and sentiment for her to read on her special day. Happy Birthday Vicki! We made our recipe and shared it at the make and take. We always eat well. Again, thanks to Vicki for opening up her home.
Can you believe that 2008 is almost over? Sheesh, time is flying.
Our last show will be Krafty Delites Christmas Gift Show at the Carson Community Ctr. December 7th, 10:00 - 4:00. This show is always packed, so come early to get a number! Last chance to pick up a calendar. Free with $25.00 purchase.
Thanks so much for supporting Tiki and taj of honolulu. It's been rough going for everyone this year with the economy the way it is, so we are doubly grateful for your continued support of taj.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

RSC November
Thanks to everyone that came and said "hello" at the convention. Sure was a lot of fun seeing you all. The weather here in California sure can be deceiving. Warm and sunny on Saturday, cold and windy on Sunday. Good thing it didn't rain.
We were fortunate to get first look at Tiki's new stencil designs.They haven't been sold in Hawaii yet!
Tiki also brought her new t-shirt designs. We got the first look at these too! They won't be available to buy in the store for a couple of weeks. Owls are so popular these days and Tiki's are so adorable. Her Christmas shirt is selling fast! So cute with the playful dolphins.
They are finally here! It's been at least three years since taj has had cellophane gift bags. Tiki has gone through many hoops to get these made. They are 8 x 11 inches and of course, adorable. They come in packages of 20 for $5.00.

Many thanks to Suzan for gifting Tiki and me with this cute "Autumn Goodie Bag." So many things can be made with rubber stamps, stencils and punches. Thanks, Suzan for the treat and inspiration! Thanks to Terry and Lindsey for sharing the card and treat purse they made! Thanks also for the "energy" treat bag. Delicious pick me up!
Hope you received your annual 2009 taj of honolulu's calendar! I don't know how many years Tiki has been designing these, but I know many of you have been collecting them through the years and have kept them from 20 years ago. It's fun to see all her t-shirt designs for each month. If you haven't gotten your calendar, please come to Krafty Delites on December 7th at the Carson Community Center! The calendar is free with a $25.00 purchase.
If you have any questions, comments or concerns, please email me at dtakakuwa at gmail dot com.
Until next time, Do Something Creative and then... email me a picture so I can copy it. Thanks!

Scrapbook Expo San Diego 2008
San Diego is a beautiful city! Tiki, Taryn, Vicki and I had a great time at the Convention Center. I've never been to a Scrapbooking Convention so there was so much to see and buy. Tiki and Taryn were able to visit Sea World, twice! San Diego is Vicki's home town so she showed me the sites and her old stomping grounds. I was fortunate enough to be able to stay with Rheba, Vicki's lifelong friend's house. What a hostess to the mostest! Rheba dropped us off at the convention, took us shopping and to the best noodle house for eats. Combining work and play is the best.
Tiki brought the cutest scrapbooking pages out from Hawaii. Vicki and I were able to put together some pages and completed a few as demos at the show. Again, my photos are fuzzy, crooked and generally crummy, but you get the idea.
