Happy New Year
Can you believe that 2016 is almost over? This year has certainly been an eventful one! I try to take some time and reflect on the year and think about the goals I have achieved and those that still need more work. But most importantly, I think about how grateful I am to have a wonderful family and friends and have the opportunity to share my Stampin' projects with everyone. Creating for me is the perfect escape for when life gets a little too much and I need some time for me! So I hope that you enjoy you New Years, whether you party it up and ring in the new year with Champagne in your hand or are asleep by 10 pm! Enjoy our New Year's projects from our designers:

December Daily and Project Life during the Holiday Season
Is it just me or is December one of the busiest months of the year? Between Holiday partys, shopping, decorating, baking and wrapping gifts; there is just so much to do. But these are also very important yearly events that should be documented for years to come. Enter Project Life, the easiest way to do memory keeping. The Holiday Project Life kits are absolutely perfect to make preserving these sweet memories a snap! Check out what our designers have done. Diana makes an amazing December Daily album that has inspired me to do the same next year:

Visit with Santa (happens before Thanksgiving, no lines!!!)
Thanksgiving - Our festivities start before December 1 so I start my album a little early
