Happy New Year!

2012-01-10T15:36:00.002-07:00

It's time for New Year's resolutions, I would like to update this blog more often, at least once a month. That is my goal for the new year. I created some fun cards for Christmas, I love sending picture cards to friends and families. I was also able to create cards for a few businesses - such fun to put something together that is unique for each business. Our cards are the best.

Summer Fun

2010-08-06T11:34:00.000-06:00

So, if you can believe it, we're into August already. It seems like summer just barely got here, but I am harvesting many goodies from my garden. We are eating fresh potatoes, tomatoes, peas, beans, onions, garlic, cucumbers and I'm still waiting for the corn and melons to ripen. Of course, I have plenty of weeds as well, but I just try to get rid as many and I can and then not focus too much on the ones left.

Kelly and I have a also taken a couple great rides on our motorcycles this year. We rode north, over Galena Summit and into the Redfish Lake resort, where my Aunt and cousins were having their yearly get-together. Such a beautiful area, we took some great pictures and I'm excited to put together a special book that can be shared with the entire family.

I am headed to Phoenix, Arizona is just a few days for our yearly annual convention that we like to call "Reunion" - I will have lots to post with new products and information when I return. It's great to have the opportunity to travel and reconnect with the incredible women I continue to meet in this wonderful business.

Gardening Time

2010-06-15T14:17:00.000-06:00

The weather is beginning to improve, even though it seems like there is still too much moisture and cool weather. It is so hard to wait for summer. But, I have my garden planted and it is actually coming up, almost as good as the weeds. I use my "Garden Journal" to keep track of what Kelly and I do to our yard, when we add fertilizer, spray for weeds, note when things bloom and such. It's a fun, personalized way to track outside happenings. We are enjoying the hummingbirds and what we are having a laugh at "humming finches" - it's amazing how the finches land on the hummingbird feeders and manage to make a meal. It's entertaining and relaxing to watch. When I'm not outside, I'm busy making Heritage Makers Fun!!!! Lots going on this month - here are the specials:

2010-03-07T09:35:00.001-07:00

Spring is on it's way. I've started pruning the fruit trees and the grape and I'm envisioning my vegetable garden. And...I'm VERY excited about the great specials I have to offer this month with Heritage Makers. Can you say PREMIER!!!

I think it will be before we know it…and Mother’s Day is just around the corner. How would you like to give your Mom – or a Mom that you know – a Very Special Gift this year? I want to help you make that happen, so I’m scheduling a “Mother Day Gift Creation” workshop. This will be a once-a-week class for 4 weeks. The cost for the classes is $25.00.

The classes will begin on Monday, March 8^th from 6:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. and then we will meet each Monday: March 15^th, March 22^nd, and March 29^th. At the end of the class, you should be ready to publish your project. (You are not required to create a “Mother’s Day Gift” – if you have another project in mind and want to attend, you are welcome.)

Christmas in July

2009-07-13T13:06:00.005-06:00

JULY!!! How did that happen? So much has been going on...I attended Dream Team in Park City, Utah; Kelly and I went to Sun Valley and spread Mom & Dad's ashes and I had another birthday. Oh my gosh! Best of all, it's CHRISTMAS IS JULY! That means buy 3 and get one for FREE!!! What a great time to stock up for your holiday gifts and cards, I do!!!

And, I have to share one of my latest projects. In the past I have purchased a book on-line to keep track of my garden happenings, this year I made my own book!!! It is awesome! Check it out here:

My garden has had a few "issues" this year, but I can track all that is happening in my personally designed book. It is so much fun!!!!

Remembering Mom & more

2009-05-05T14:34:00.011-06:00

Mother's Day doesn't hold for me what it used to since my Mother passed away. But, I still did something in her memory this year. I recreated a cookbook she put together for me 25 years ago. She compiled recipes from all my relatives, put them in a book and glued a picture of each of them with the recipe. Thanks to Heritage Makers, I have been able to recreate this wonderful cookbook and now I get to share it. My Mother loved to cook, so it is very fitting that I share recipes. Take a look:

Now that spring is actually coming to this part of the world, brides are planning their weddings. I'm pretty excited about the great wedding package that Heritage Makers has created:

CLICK HERE to see the flyer and view ALL the templates (there are more!)

And don't forget the Pick of the Month:

A "Cookbook" credit and a "Card Deck" credit - a great deal. Just give me a call or drop me an email and I'd love to tell you more.

Spring is near!

2009-03-25T14:40:00.002-06:00

Last weekend it was so nice outside, that I actually got to work in the yard. I was able to prune my apricot & peach trees and grape bush. It was so nice to be outside working and realizing how very blessed I am to live in such a beautiful place with trees, bushes, flowers, garden... it's amazing.

Something else amazing has happened for me in the last month. I have felt some strong healing with the relationship between myself and my deceased Father. You may ask, how did this happen...Heritage Makers!!!! I created a book that fills me with happy memories and makes me smile (and cry a little) every time I look at it or share it with someone else. I call it "Songs I Learned From My Father" since it showcases the songs my Dad and I used to sing together as I tagged along on his work days. It has filled my heart with love. I'll share it with you here and hope that it inspires you to create a book for someone you love, either living or dead. It will touch your heart and their heart, I promise.

After Valentine's Day

2009-02-15T12:40:00.004-07:00

My gosh, Valentine's Day has come and gone, so have many months since I attempted to update this blog. I'm attempting to be more attentive and keep everyone a bit more updated. I did give my sweet husband a great card this Valentine's Day, thanks to the GREAT Heritage Makers Template Gallery.

This business is so fun and I love sharing my projects, showing others how to create the most incredible projects.
I have been trying to get a little more up to date with the blog page and I hope you will come visit me here to see what is going on. I will post a link to my latest project soon, since my Dad died 3 years ago I have had a hard time finding the right idea for a book that represents him. I think I've found it and I can't wait to show it to you, but you'll have to wait until it is finished. If you want to see the book I completed on my Mother, who died 4 years ago, you can click this LINK.
