Neglected but excited!

Since my last post I've been traveling quite a bit. My family spent 10 days traveling around Florida and the Bahamas in July. We're currently visiting family on the East Coast and will be for another 10 days.

So while I've been too busy to craft much, and neglected this blog slightly I am really excited for what the future holds. During July, I also participated in a Christmas in July market and sold several cards, tags, and bookmarks from my stock. So I need to replenish my creations... And while cropping is fun and exciting, new purchases of cropping supplies make it even better!

The NEW Close To My Heart Autumn/Winter Idea Book came out August 1st! By the time I get home a large box will be waiting for me with new paper, embellishments, and the BRAND NEW Cricut Art Philosophy set! During my break between vacations, I also picked up several papers and embellishments from our local Scrapbook Shoppe on sale. So I have lot so of new goodies. And BONUS... While my husband was searching Craigslist he said, "There is a post on here with Cricut cartridges for $20? How much do they usually go for?" My collection of cartridges is small so I was eager to see what was listed. Upon inspection I found several cartridges I wanted and was able to get 4 cartridges for $50! These include H2O, Pumpkin Carving, Everyday Paper Dolls, and Joys of the Season! I've already experimented with H2O but look forward to using the others as well. While my family is at the beach next week, my nieces and I will be cropping a couple days away. Pictures will follow in the coming weeks. But check out the great new items from Close To My Heart on my independent consultant website
