Welcome to my blog! I know many of you have waited a long time for this blog and I am excited and committed to write to you regularly. As many of you know, I am a mother of four amazing children and a wife to a very loving and supportive husband. With all the hats I wear, I absolutely love being the founder and CEO of Close To My Heart, an incredible company with tens of thousands of incredible women and men behind it. You will get to know these wonderful people in my life.
I want to share with you my deep passion for my favorite arts: scrapbooking and stamping. From time to time, I’ll post some blogs that follow a specific theme. For example, I plan to create an “I Love Remembering….” segment, where I’ll relate my favorite stories and memories. I’ll also write about the “Magic Moments” I encounter in everyday life, as well as “Art from My Heart” where I’ll share some of my favorite artwork. I invite you to share your positive comments, as this blog is intended to be an uplifting experience for everyone who visits.
We are going to have a great time and we will create beautiful art together. There is so much to talk about in this world of mine. So I want to thank you for spending some time with me and I hope you will enjoy what you read.

Aloha (from Stuttgart, Germany)! As an American living and working in support of our military community, I am so very happy to have access to the Close To My Heart products!

ReplyDeleteWelcome to the world of blogging! I want you to know that I have owned about a zillion idea books but I recently got rid of all but the three I own that were written by you. They are all I ever use anyway! I've been scrapbooking for over 10 years, so I've got some experience but as I began to collect your books, I've enjoyed the look of my pages even more. Thank you. I'll look forward to reading your blog regularly.

I'm a brand new CTMH consultant, and I've never been to a Gathering! I ordered CTMH from a consultant and decided to get my friends involved. So wish me luck on Sunday, Sept. 14 at my very 1st Gathering which I will be doing solo...
