Feburary is here !!!!

I have been good, getting blogging done alot more this year - just need to keep it up. I am going crazy with the waiting on my design team call. I sent my stuff in on the 1st and won't hear anything until the 9th. If (and I say if because there are probably zillions of ladies trying out for it) I make it, then there is another step to get thru ! I really worked hard on theses projects and about drove everyone crazy, but I was happy with what I turned in. Hope they agree !!!! LOL Close To My Heart is going good, I have my first Gathering on the 7th and then another on the 15th. Here's hoping I get another booking from one of them.

It is Official................



I received my starter kit in the mail and I have my first Gathering (scrap party) on Feb.7th. I also started up a Hostess Club where ten ladies get together for a year and each is a hostess for one month. We have nine members but still waiting to hear from a few ladies, so should have it filled soon. I also placed an ad on my home association website so hoping to get peoples attention in my area. Here are pictures of my first Make n Takes .

I signed up to be a Close To My Heart Consultant. Oh me, oh my......what am I getting myself into. I love scrapbooking and card making so I thought what better for me to do. Hopefully I will be able to get up in front of people I do not know and sound intelligent !!!! LOL Wish me luck in this - I will need it ! Right now I am taking classes online for my Bachelor's Degree !!!! I kid you not !!!!!

Design Team

I'm doing it again.....said I was thru with this stuff, but I just love these diecuts and said if I am gonna work my butt off and then be a nervous wreck only to be upset cuz I don't take rejection well - I might as well do it for something I am so addicted to. I am trying out for the design team for Spellbinders. I have four projects to do and a short essay. I have to do a layout, a card, an altered item and a stamping item of my choice. I have cards done (just have to pick which one to submit)and I am finishing up the small details on the altered item this weekend. I am hopeing to do the layout of some of my daughter's wedding pictures and will probably do another card for the stamping project ( I just love making cards)! The essay will be the hardest for me - never been to good at talking about myself. Well wish me luck !!!!!

About Me

My photo
Born in Illinois, moved to California when I was nine. Finished high school and some college. Got married and moved to Nebraska with hubby because he joined the Air Force. Then spent some time in Alaska before moving back to California. I lived in Californa until 2004 when my husband decided to move us to Texas. I still have a husband (yes-I still have him even though he moved me to Texas), two daughters, three cats (and two outside cats that adopted us along with two racoons that we feed). Things have changed, now that hubby retired......we moved to Colorado and have said goodbye to cats ( they are gone now ) No more racoons but we did adopt two rescue kitten from Hurricane Harvey.
