No Stress Just Work…

Oct 24, 2010

This will be my new motto told to me by a sweet friend for the next six months as I will begin work­ing on my SECOND book tomor­row. I am so happy I have been given the chance to work with F & W Media once again. My new book will be tech­nique based just as “Delight In The Details” but it will have step outs on how to recre­ate not only the tech­niques but ALSO some of the projects. So excited about this new twist. My first dead­line is Novem­ber 26th so i will be some­what of a her­mit over the next month as these projects will be for the cover and I want them over the top won­der­ful. Not sure if I can tell you the theme of the book just yet but you will LOVE IT I just know it. A lot of thought has gone into this con­cept and I think it will be ever so pop­u­lar. The book will debut at CHA-W 2012. That might seem like a long time to you but believe me the time will fly quickly for me. My final dead­line is in April so I have until then to get every­thing completed.

Yes­ter­day I was busy send­ing out email to poten­tial spon­sors and I am happy to say… so far I have Maya Road (cer­tainly no sur­prise there you all know I am a Roadie at heart), Wendy Vec­chi Art Parts (so excited about this one), Jenni Bowlin (once again… YAY), The Girls’ Paperie (super excited about this new spon­sor), Pink Paislee (Yay once again) and Crafty Secrets (super excited about this new spon­sor too).

The lit­tle “No stress just work” sign is sit­ting right in front of my work­sta­tion and will remain there until I have com­pleted the book. I used a scrap piece of paper from kit­ting my card class “You’ve Got Mail” and just trimmed the top and bot­tom using scal­lop scis­sors.  And speak­ing of my card class… “You’ve Got Mail” is fill­ing up fast so if you are in the DFW area and want to play on the 6th of Nov. at 10:30 come take the class. The Crafty Scrap­per is a won­der­ful place to spend a Sat­ur­day… well any day for that matter.
