Hello, Hello

 …Holly here…

I feel like I am crawling out of my cave to write this post, I have been totally engrossed in my latest project- my new store (www.southernscrapbooks.wordpress.com).  You can’t walk from one end of my living room to the other without stumbling over boxes of inventory and my garage is full of fixtures (my husband is such a saint for putting up with all of this…)  I am very excited to be moving on the the best part of opening a store- actually being at the store and interacting with customers- I cannot wait for October 6th to get here!

This is one of the classes I am going to be teaching- an acrylic Halloween album using the new Heidi Grace Halloween Line (I will have ALL of the newest Heidi Grace along with all the rest of the fabulous new Fiskars family of products that are coming out)…

IMG_6554.JPG   IMG_6552.JPG  I just loved making this book- my favorite part are the bats, they make the best little accent!  I made this whole book with the cute bats, two sheets of HG paper and two sheets of rub ons- gotta love it!

 

By the way…IMG_5887.JPG… Isn’t my baby getting huge?  Where has the time gone?  I swear it seems like he was born yesterday.

    Heidi! You are missed so much! I can’t wait to visit your new store! I’ve got to find an excuse to get Scott to drive me to Charlotte. :) I’ve heard there’s a dog bar in Charlotte, so maybe if we go there too but then you probably have a “no insane little dogs” rule in the store.

    Your boy is getting so big! Sorry I didn’t get to chat longer at CKC. Seemed like he was pretty insistent on moving on. :)
