Today I was showing my mom how to view blogs, to help her find some new ideas for cards. I told her it was just like going to my blog and then from there, you can search out other blogs. How embarrassing when I went to my own blog only to realize that I have not posted on here since May of this year!! I think my 2017 New Year's resolution was to be more consistent on here. So, I'm going to go for that goal again this year!! The new Seasonal Expressions has arrived at my house and it has inspired me to share with others all of the great products that are in this book!!! I'm beginning with only a sneak peak of the cover! This cover features one of the new paper packets called Chelsea Gardens. The colors are beautiful!! I love the whole gardening theme that goes with this paper! The featured colors include charcoal, fern, glacier, heather, juniper, mink, sweet leaf and white daisy. It is gorgeous! As I complete cards, workshops and other items using this paper, I will post pictures on here. Beginning January 1st, you can go to my Close to my Heart OBA site at https://lauriesmith.closetomyheart.com where you can view the entire new book! Merry Christmas!
