I am back!

I am not even going to start this blog post and mention my inability to update my blog...i am just going to move on and write about what makes me happy, hmmmfph!  Those of you that have sent me emails letting me know the # of days since my last post...you crack me up! 

Since March i have traveled quite a bit, Florida, minnesota, texas, oklahoma to name a few.  I enjoy this part of my job so much - creating and meeting fabulous ladies who share the same love of papercrafting! A huge thank you to everyone for their support of my classes.

I am home now until mid July enjoying my family, the beautiful Summer days, my two adorable "assistants" and lots of creating!  CHA is just around the corner so I am working with Creative Imaginations new releases which by the way are FABULOUS!  Last week I sent over some drawings for some new dies with Accucut! Very excited about this release - I just wish i could share some sneak peeks - unfortunately it will have to wait a few weeks as I have been sworn to secrecy!

This weekend I am teaching at Right at home Scrapbooking for their summer retreat getaway! It is hard to believe it has been nearly a year since i have taught at RAH!  I am looking forward to spending some time scrapbooking with friends, demoing our new Luminarte paints, and teaching two classes!  The first class, Inspired traveler uses the new Art Warehouse collection and some fun techniques!

 

My second class, All Things Grow with Love, starts with my new accucut petal flower die, Brand New IOD Loolah Collection and Petaloo's gorgeous flowers!  

 

If you have not visited the Creative Imaginations blog lately then you are certainly missing out! Each month we are offering two prize packages for 2 winners. What do you have to do you ask? Just create either a layout or card {or both} using our card and/or layout sketch using at least 80% CI product and post it in either our June card gallery or our June layout gallery! 

And of course a post is not a post without my two assistants! I received a new camera for my birthday {a beautiful new Canon SLR}, so i have been spending some time learning all the new settings.  Here are a few favorites from Father's Day!

Braeden taking advantage of his brother ...it backfired a bit. :)

 

3 balls and they have to wrestle for one.

Braeden and his silly faces.

Sweet Brody.....

Have a blessed day!
