Hello December!

 

 I was way overdue for family pictures with my daughters.  Although it was freezing outside, we had a wonderful photograph session.   I had these pictures in my phone and didn’t use them.  So last weekend, I decided to make something crafty to preserve my memories with my daughters.  They are growing way too fast.  So I go to retrieve my photos and they were not in my app on my phone. Grrr.  I wanted scream. I rely on my phone way too much.  All my precious memories were in this special app that I won’t mention here….  I had to update my phone a couple weeks back and bam the pictures were all gone.  And that icloud thing,  I still don’ t get. Where is the cloud? Lol.  Cause every time I need it, it’s not there.  I was in a panic mode.  Ya I did post a couple on my facebook page when I initially got them but they were the samples.  Lesson learnt, I should print my pictures and save them on a second drive. These precious moments can quickly disappear. Thankfully my super amazing photograph had them on file. She is extremely busy with her business and normally doesn’t keep them all.  I was ecstatic!! She said look at your emails in 2 hrs and they will be there… and they were!!! Thankfully!   I owe her big time. 

 

This event has thought me a lesson.  Pictures of my family, my life and with my honey are truly meaningful to me.  I have decided to reorganize my pictures.  Project life is an easy and fast approach to my goals.  Although I like to add an extra bling here and there and everywhere, sorting my albums and scrapbook like the speed of lightening  will be a breeze. 

 

If you are not a scrapbooker, or if you like my style of stamping, you might want to pay attention now.  I have decided to host a scrapbook afternoon on December 19th from 1pm to 5pm, where we will listen  to Christmas carols, eat some yummy treats and drink some hot drinks.  Staying in your pjs will make it that much more fun.    We will create a 6×8 Holiday Album.  Class fee is 69$ and includes a 64$ goodie bag.  You will leave with a full 12 or 24 sheet spread and album.  You pick…

 

If you can’t attend, you will have the option to get this class online.  It’s simple. You just need to order the project from me and will get instructions and/or mini videos as well.  How cool would it be to just have to slide in your pictures in your album spreads after the Holidays.  Hello December 2015!!!  You’ll get to keep those precious memories in a glam kind of way.

 

Have I got you excited yet?  To sign up, EMAIL ME or order online your products HERE.

 

Don’t forget to look at the online store.  The super extravaganza sales end today, shop now HERE.

    Kim, I was so happy to hear that your photographer had your pictures.  I cna't imagine the emotions you had.  You make me think about my pictures too.  I don't understand this Icloud thing either.

    So glad you found your pictures and you and the girls look so happy.
     Your class sounds like a lot of fun.
