 Hi crafty friends!

I've missed you all. Just been crazy here, with no signs of slowing down. 

I had to prep for a writer's conference then attend the conference. re-cracked my ribs the day after I got home, spent two weeks to 'heal' before I had to make a 4-day road trip to Central IL. Now I'm home trying to catch up (and get ahead) of business before another writer's conference this weekend. As for the ribs, I still have to watch how far I bend and don't lift anything heavy.

Horrible picture of a 'clean' desk. Clean because I put everything away after my crafting session Monday and Tuesday. 

I know some of you are going to give me the 'eye' but it's all about Christmas In July here in the studio. Ahead of the class with Tim Holtz on Friday I've been spotlighting his products this week. So this isn't photo heavy, I'll link you to yesterday's blog post where I rolled Monday and Tuesday in to one.

TUESDAY

I'm also trying to finish projects sitting on my sofa in the studio. This is my Hallmark Movies & Books Garland for my office Christmas Tree. There are over 30 panels. I'll also link the video below the picture.

The first card on the far left is A Heavenly Christmas. The script was written by my friend, Gregg McBride, to honor his mother-in-law who passed from cancer several years ago. He's done a variety of things since then including his latest being a thriller set in New Orleans do out later this year. 

I've not only included Hallmark Christmas shows but the classics as well, and for good measure, through my own book cover in there as well as a couple of Christmas cookbook covers. 

That's my desk for today. I really have missed everyone. I have a writer's conference this weekend so I'll be round to as many as I can this afternoon then on Sunday or Monday.

That's it for my desk (and story) this week. Who's Miss Sarah and why am I here?  When you are done visiting me in the Ozarks, please hop on over to Sarah’sCraft Shed for all the details. Miss Sarah has a long list of other studios you can peek into. No standing on an up-turned milk pail to look in the window. We open the doors wide and welcome you.  Please leave your number and you'll be among the first on my list.

 

Creative Blessings!
