I'm sorry

I do apologize.

My life has been very busy this past month.

Getting into the routine again with school,

piano teaching,

creating classes for retreats in October,

writing up instructions,

kitting the classes,

planning b-day parties,

and being a mommy ... is just tiring and overwhelming at times!

But I am still here. Just not as often.

I do want to share one peek with you today though - of a Christmas card class that I'll be teaching in October at Croptober Fall Retreat in Duncan, BC (at Scrapbook Central) . I'm looking forward to the week and teaching alongside other awesome instructors!

Ok, here's the peek.

This class is full of Christmas Cheer goodies by Imaginisce & Core'dinations Colorcore Cardstock.

I'll share more peeks later on.

But now I have to get back to baking & decorating a b-day card for my daughter's party. Call me crazy ... but I'm making her a Rubik's Cube cake to go along with the 80's theme that she's having. I really hope that it works.
