I.Am.Busy. (oh, how I love to be busy!)
I worked on the binders for the attendees at the gift wrap workshop last night, after an event I attended for my grown up girl job.
I'll tell you something. Lately, this grown up girl job thing is getting in the way of my ...passion. Seriously.
Anyway.
I just had a spare minute and wanted to share 'em.
You think they'll like them? Oh, I hope so.




Gorgeous....they will love them. Think you'll have any leftovers for sale??? You do everything with such class!!!!!!

Everything about them is perfection :<) The color, the print, the quote....even the vignette you put together to show them.

Oh, I just love them. I *wish* I could be there.

Absolutely lovely...wish I were going!

Those notebooks look really nice Tracey! What a fun day you'll have. As for grown-up jobs - I've been off work for 6 months with a broken ankle (now just about healed), and I've loved every minute of it. I REALLY don't want to go back!

They are lovely! May your passion one day be your full-time, day-time, profitable occupation.

Oh, yes! They'll love 'em!
I'm getting ready to cover some binders too, but I don't exactly know how. Teach me?

Hopefully things will work out to where you can follow your bliss ;o)
The binders are beautiful. Wish I had time to come to your workshop...just a 2.5 hour drive.
Blessings...

Just beautiful! I think I'd be a bit intimidated at your workshop and turn into all thumbs.
Best,
Kathy
Love the classic colors

That is too funny. It doesn't make sense sometimes, does it? We have to do what we don't want to do (job) so we can do what we want to do (passion).
Well, good luck with both.
Blessings,

Wish I could attend. It's going to be the best, I can tell.

I'm really wishing Ohio wasn't so far away! The notebooks are beautiful! You are so creative. Hopefully you might come up with something those of us that can't attend could purchase...

Tracey,
Absolutely lovely. If you have any extra's I would like to purchase one from you. I Wait for the day you have your own creative business full time. A quote for you today:
*Though no one can go back and make a brand new start,
Anyone can start from now and make a brand new ending!
Warmly,
Helen

Seriously, if it were on one of my "off track" times, I would make the drive.

Hi there...you don't know me from Adam, but I just want you to know that I have THOROUGHLY enjoyed browsing through your blog! I wish I could be a part of your workshop this weekend - you obviously put a lot of care and thought into how to treat your customers/friends - your preparations look lovely -I can't wait to see how it all went. I've added a link to your blog on my blog under the heading of Cottage Inspiration - hope that's OK...? I just love "meeting" new people in the blog world - what a great way to connect in this crazy-busy world. Thanks for sharing your little piece of that world with all of us - we are surely blessed by it!
Blessings,
