When did it get to be October!


Boy am I a bad blogger. Since my last blog, I've been to Charlotte, NC, back to MN, to San Diego, and back here. The last 2 months have flown by. I was in San Diego watching my nephew graduate from Marine boot camp. I'm so proud of him! You would think, that since I live so close to Paris Island (the other Marine boot camp location), that he would get stationed here. But NO - he was in CA. Oh well. I got to spend several days there with my brother, his fiance, and my mom. That was really nice. We kept running the whole time.

Since I've been back, I've been on a major creative roll. I've got tons of new layouts up in the store. I've been working like crazy to come up with classes and cards. I'm really looking forward to getting the card classes started again. Sue is going to be teaching the first one on Oct. 15th. Can't wait!

There has been tons going on in the scrapbook industry. First of all, Scrapbook Studio in Pooler, GA shut down about a month ago. I'm sorry that Cecile wasn't able to make that work. Becky Higgins is no longer with Creating Keepsakes (you can read about it on her blog - entry from September 15th http://www.beckyhiggins.com/blog/

Scenic Route Announces Liquidation Sale & Closure - Another scrapbook company is closing up. If you like there stuff, check out their web site. I think anyone can shop the sale.

It's so sad to see these big scrapbook companies going under. Just reminds us that we have to do everything we can to keep the little ones going.
