Woah! 2pm on Monday and I'm just getting to this post. Sorry. I like to have it done the night before.... but alas here we are. I'm back from CHA and it was fabulous!!! So much inspiration, so many ideas, so many projects. My head is bursting with creative energy! Where to start? I spent the show walking up and down isles and isles of beautiful paper goodness and amazing embellishments. It really was a dream for me to go to this event! I am forever grateful. I have posted pictures here of my favorite booths and experiences. I am currently planning classes to teach & kits to sell. I am also working together with Chantel & KC at Treasured Memories to bring make n' takes and demos to the store. Don't worry, I won't forget about you! I'll have the demos and techniques here as well as when I do them in the store.

I've had some exciting news under my hat for the last month and am excited to finally share. I am now part of the amazing Design Team over at Twisted Sketches. Anam (the creator of Twisted Sketches) creates a sketch, adds a twist and then we (you too) create a layout based on that criteria. Fun! This is my layout from this sketch, the twist was "transparent"- how ever that word moved you. I used transparent embellishments, Heidi Swapp ghost hearts & butterflies. Go check it out and play along. It's great, Anam has done your layout planning for you!
I have been teaching at Treasured Memories full time (at least one class a month) since September but I am now officially part of their Design team. This came about when I was asked if I wanted to be a part of their kits of the month. I was so excited! Of course I wanted to do that! Their kits are super popular and I get to do what I love, create kits and layouts that inspire others! The kit I put together for February went on sale there today, it is called Come Away With Me and is definitely romantic. You can check it out on my other blog here or at the store's blog here. I did 10 layouts and have posted pictures of them all here.
I'm leaving you with all those pictures to check out as your inspiration for today and the rest of the week. Don't forget I am teaching this Saturday from 1pm - 3:30pm at Treasured Memories. I think there are only 4 spots left & I'd love to see you there if you're local. If not, call the store and Chantel would be more than happy to mail a kit off to you. For now, I'll leave you with a picture of me at the Making Memories booth. How fun.

Happy Monday. Happy February first. Have a fantastic week friends!
