It's been a hectic few months for me and my family. From celebrating a successful year with a trip to Aruba with CBS (my 8-5 job), followed by the tragic death of a family member, and then another trip this time to Disney. May and June definitely had it's ups and down. There's been little time to create scrapbook pages, die-cuts and art journal pages which has me tied up in knots. There's nothing better to relieve tension than a good dose of creativity.
We are 7 months into 2016 and if you are anything like me, your still scratching your head wondering where all the time went. I for one and making a July 1st resolution to create at least one thing every day this month, From a quick 10 minutes thank you note to a 2 hour double layout, anything is better than nothing. All this creating starts with a clean scrapbook room which I've been working on over the past week. It's so hard to get started when you don't know where everything is. Yesterday was spent with Shannon from Piece by Piece Paper Designs. We worked on some layouts which she will feature at the Christmas in July Scrap-away Retreat. If you want to get into the holiday spirit early, visit her table that weekend. She's going to work on her Christmas cards or you can be like and say "Ba humbug".
Some new about Close To My Heart from the convention at Disney World. They launched some amazing new products that will be available starting August 1st in our new catalog. I'll have many samples available for show in July at Scrap-away. From new paper designs, flip flaps sizes, delicate thin cut metal dies, and some brilliant new colors. Please make sure to stop out to see me if you are in the neighborhood. Close to My Heart also shared their incredible Holiday Expressions catalog early.
