and Happy Holidays as we head towards a new year. As I begin to pack up my craft room for the anticipated move, I reflect on all the wonderful blogging and Facebook crafty peeps that have become a part of my world. I am grateful for each and every one of you. I will be on hiatus awhile as I have to focus on a new year, new me and a new life. 2016 will be one of renewal and growth in all ways. So Merry Christmas, Season's Greetings and much love always.
Until next time....

I feel like Santa in one of my favorite holiday Movies.....
You guessed it! Miracle on 34th Street (the original of course). I do not normally share things that are not CTMH related BUT I am here to share a product that has saved my sanity. It is the Scrap 'n Easel from ContainYa Crafts. I had recently cut and stamped all my pieces for the Zoe Scrapbooking Workshop on the Go and did not have time to complete the layouts that day. Well, I ended up with this:
Well, it stayed like this for a week until I decided to take out the Scrap 'n Easel and took 5-10 minutes at a time to place the pieces with the magnets it comes with. In no time, I ended up with this:
Today it took me maybe 10 minutes to adhere it all down. The nice part is that I can use it as a design board too! This product has my full endorsement (and no I do not get anything for endorsing it). Here is a demonstration video from Youtube:
So please stop by their wonderful website. The store is closed until November 16th due to a death in the family. I am sending my condolences in this post as well. Until next time.....

Happy Sunday all....
Greetings and Salutations,
I am recovering from a little procedure from Thursday and making the most of my time. I can say I have been quite a but creative these past day. Here is the first thing I can share :) This is a great craft fair item or little gift made with our Base and Bling Circle Pendants, Covers and Style Sheets, as well as, key rings from Home Depot. You use Liquid Glass to adhere the glass cover. Took 2 minutes literally! You can also make jewelry. You can view the complete line here: Base & Bling Collection. You can email me for more details.
I do not tend to update my blog lately as I have a page over on Facebook where I post more frequently. Come and join us HERE for the latest updates. Well off to work on my Workshops on the Go Zoe Scrapbooking Kit. Until next time....

It was a Kiwi Lane Day....
Greetings all...
I had to share a layout that I made during a Kiwi Lane class held by my fellow CTMH sister Anita. I have had these templates for (ahem) a year and finally have the courage to use them LOL! These are pics from our camping trip at Jellystone Park in Luray, VA. I have a TON more pics to scrapbook and am making sure I am documenting and labeling all pics. Here is the layout:
I will of course journal but I wanted to upload this before I forgot. Well, off I go. Until next time......

Greetings all and Happy Labor Day
Today I am feeling the call to create but the organization call is stronger. I need to get ready for the local Crop for Saturday and then the Breast Cancer Crop on the 26th. So many wonderful exciting things. I have been celebrating my birthday weekend (I may extend it out the rest of the month) and cannot feel more blessed. We started on Friday with a trip to Buffalo Wild Wings with my amazing friend Aimee and the kids and then they had booked an appointment for me to get my 2nd tattoo. Here are some pics:
Saturday we went to the NY Aquarium where is was SO HOT!!! The kids shared a coke with an MVP- ME...
We even had the original Nathan's and L&B Spumoni. I showed them things I did, where I grew up and where I lived when I was a young'in. It is important that they learn their parents history and I am so glad we did it. Now for my 50th they can plan a party and send me on a Hawaiian cruise lol.
Wishing everyone a wonderful Labor Day and will be back creating soon. Until next time...

For the Cricut Lovers.....
Hi there....
It is me again. Did you know that the Cricut Collection's come September 1st will have Cardstock packs instead of the Chipboard Elements? Yes sirree. I am super excited about it for sure.

The traditional Collection includes:
1 – Cartridge (700 images: Shapes, Layers, Banners, Borders, Backgrounds, and Font)
3 – My Acrylix® D-size Stamp Sets
1 – Enchantment Cardstock Combo Pack
And the Digital Collection contains the same shapes, stamp sets, and cardstock as the cartridge collection. The only difference is the 700 images are accessed using an online code rather than a physical cartridge.*
*Available only for use with Cricut® Explore™ and Cricut® Explore Air™.
