Happy New Year!

Where did December go? I thoroughly enjoyed my two week teacher vacation... us teachers really do NEED our vacations! Think about how you feel after spending Winter Break with your own kids....now consider your child's teacher that spends 5 days a week with them and and 25 of their closest friends :-)  We love our jobs...and your kids...but we NEED our vacations!

I spent mine with my own little ones and spent alot of time scrapbooking!! I'll post pics soon AND plans for this months crafting gathering on Saturday the 19th.

For now, I'll leave you with a sneak peek of the cover of the new Spring/Summer 2013 Close to my Heart Catalog. You will all be very excited to see the new papers and ideas! Free catalogs to the attendees of January's crafting party- Catalog goes live February 1st!
