New Year, New Start, Lots of Changes.

2011 ended on a sad note with the closing of the Scrapbook Store where I was the manager. I was there almost everyday, making projects, meeting crafty people, teaching classes, and having a blast. It was a very sad week saying goodbye to our loyal customers and having the last class that we would ever hold.

So I had to decide what I wanted to be "when I grow up?".........

I decided that I wanted to spend more time at home and that I wanted to continue teaching scrapbook projects, because I love it!! I moved all my scrapbook stuff home today and created a new happy place in my own house! I am going to keep teaching classes at a local craft store when I can. I have also been asked to teach a couple classes for some of my customers from the store. I also plan to make some crafty things and sell them at some local craft stores. I NEED to spend some time working on actual scrapbook pages for my own albums!! All this has lead me to the answer to the question above.........

When I grow up, I want to be exactly what I am right now!!

I will stay at home, scrap, create, teach, and spend more time with my family!!!!

So here's to a New Year with new challenges, trials, and rewards!! As my idol Tim Holtz says: Enjoy the Journey!! and that is EXACTLY what I am going to do!!
