Today starts my first house hunting adventures. I'm super excited and hope to find a place to accomidate all my scrapping craziness and maybe room for larger classes. As some of you know I'm renting my current home to be closer to work. Unfortunately the home comes with crazy neighbors. Because of this I've limited classes at my home, no need for my friends and clients to be screamed or cursed at.

I wanted to share one of my favorite personal layouts that I designed in August. This layout features our new Swan Lake paper.

 It really is looking like Christmas, visit Joann's or Homegoods and your surrounded by holiday bling.  Can't remember a year when the retail Christmas came so early.  For us crafters, the holiday's tends know no time limit.  My good friend Shannon finished her holiday cards in July, which by the way has me green with envy.  

Close to My Heart has out done themselves this year.  Our Holiday Expressions catalog is full of scrumptious patterns you'll have to gobble up.  Today I wanted to focus on one of my favorite new patterns that just so happens to have a  matching Cricut cartridge!!
