09/28 It is the end of September!

Another - Oh my goodness! Where did September go? I swear, the older I get the faster the years slip by. The last few weeks have been so busy, but I do want to share some exciting news coming the month of October. Be sure to sign up for my newsletter as I am hosting my first "Techniques" class on my blog on Saturday. To celebrate World Card Making Day on October 4th, you will be able to log onto my blog and follow along with my pictoral tutorial to create the beautiful NEW Cards from the Close to My Heart new "Originals" card confidence program. The techniques will be a variety of new and 'not so new' techniques. Since FALL is my favorite season, you will find a bevy of fall-themed cards with some of our brand new products as well as the "tried-n-true" products. More to come but here is a sneak peek!

07/27 Mamma Mia trio!

Ok - this is the reason I LOVED Mamma Mia! This is me and my best friends at my goddaughter's wedding - OK a few years later than the 80's but oh well! Can you guess which character I am in the movie?!!!



Great memories of my youth!!

07/22 I LOVED Mamma Mia!

Ok, ladies. No idiotic car chases, blood and no brains blowing apart! Just plain
F-U-N. You must see Mamma Mia! Not to mention my favorite - Remington Steele a.k.a Pierce Brosnan and Meryl Streep.

What a great movie! Of course I was listening to ABBA when they recorded the music the FIRST time - Life is good!
