If I had my child to raise all over again,
I’d build self-esteem first, and the house later.
I’d finger-paint more, and point the finger less.
I would do less correcting and more connecting.
I’d take my eyes off my watch, and watch with my eyes.
I’d take more hikes and fly more kites.
I’d stop playing serious, and seriously play.
I would run through more fields and gaze at more stars.
I’d do more hugging and less tugging.
~Diane Loomans, from “If I Had My Child To Raise Over Again”

New idea book available from August 1st contact me if you would like to add your own “must have this” tabs!

This book, available from Close to My Heart offers card-making inspiration for either single cards or lots of cards made all at once!  But even that didn’t spark my creativity this time, despite the hundreds of beautiful designs on display.

Not yet willing to give up I began browsing through the spring/summer idea book and found just what I was looking for.  It wasn’t a card at all but one of the lovely little journal books available from CTMH.  I adapted the design from a girly pink dancer to something more suited to my guy and was finished in no time!  I choose “dreams” as my theme as we’ve shared so many of them during the past 16 years and we are still planning and dreaming together!

My favourite update was the announcement that CTMH and Cricut® have joined forces to introduce a new cartridge that when used in conjunction with your stamps opens up a world of new creativity.
