Craft On and From Me To You

I cannot believe that it is August already. This summer is going by too fast. We are in the middle of getting ready to bring Meghan back for her senior year of college and bring Nicole to college for her first year of college. The dining room is starting to get filled up with all their gear.

I hope everyone is staying cool with the hot days we have been having. I have been trying to spend as much time as possible down in the basement crop room where it is cooler. I have been having fun playing around with the August Featured collection - Craft On as well as the Stamp of the Month for August - From Me To You. I am happy to be able to share these with you.

The Craft On collection features bright colors with crisp, clean designs that are perfect for celebrating good times and great friends and a love of all things crafting.

Into The Wild and Bear Hugs

Hello all and Welcome to July! I am working on getting back to the swing of things after having a wonderful trip to London, England in June. This was our first time in England and we enjoyed a very busy, exciting two weeks there.

Now on to the fun stuff for the month of July! I am happy to share the Featured Paper of the Month along with the Stamp of the Month for July from Close To My Heart. The Featured Paper for the month of July is the Into The Wild Collection. This collection of papers and embellishments contains doodled designs and earthy tones that make it very versatile. It's perfect for those baby boy layouts along with layouts for those outdoor activities that are part of our summers! I can't wait to scrapbook our family hikes with this collection.
