What's Your Dream?

Ta Da!

Presenting Tresa Black's award-winning album from the recent Close To My Heart convention in L.A.

What a creative artist she is, and what a message she packed into this very special project!

You can see more of her art and her tutorials HERE.

So, what's your dream? Is it the same or different each day?

How have some of your dreams been fulfilled?

Here's one of my favorite quotes about dreams and dreaming:

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." -- Eleonor Roosevelt

Fall Felicity Layout

It was fun to use the Felicity papers for this Fall memory book layout -- after I get a 5 x 7 and two 4 x 6 photos taken, I'll also add hidden journaling tabs behind the photo spaces.

(Truly, I'm not wanting to rush Fall! Though, not to my surprise, all the stores have Halloween and Christmas items on the shelves already. Puhleeeeeze, people, don't rush the calendar or ME! I'm still enjoying summer, and it goes all too swiftly! School resumes in our district on August 17. I'm "old school" and resist doing anything school-related until AFTER Labor Day! When I see those big yellow buses on the road, my heartstrings get pulled and I need a tissue or two. Whatever happened to a fun summer full of outdoor & indoor creative activities?!)

This is my first playdate with the Cricut and the new CTMH Art Philosophy cartridge -- I'm "hooked" on this Cricut fun!

Recipe:
CTMH Felicity paper packet
CTMH colonial white, Kraft, Barn Red, and (other) orange CS
CTMH Kraft border
Cricut cartridges: CTMH Art Philosophy; Jubilee Celebration (title)

Have a great new week!

Playtime with Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge

Just a quick post this morning to say "If you love to scrapbook and/or papercraft in any way, shape, or form, you're going to LOVE LOVE LOVE the Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge!"

It's available through Close To My Heart -- a new product in the Fall/Winter 2011 Idea Book!

Take a look at it HERE, and you can browse the new Idea Book too!

I'm working on Fall & Winter paper projects as I keep cool in the A/C.

Yesterday we got an inch of rain, thank God! -- the first precipitation in our area in more than a month. The gardens and trees are looking so happy!

Enjoy your weekend, and craft your heart out!
