Not much happening on the blog or social media, but LOTS going on here as I leave in FIVE DAYS for my two month adventure across America! Every day, boxes are arriving- the other day there were five separate visits from UPS and FedEx! My amazing sponsors are loading me up with great products to share with those who take classes.
I had the opportunity to do a Google hangout with my friends over at Bella Crafts Quarterly. (see some peeks at the new and improved Scotty!
Have you seen their amazing FREE ezine? Yes, free, that’s right- 64 pages of projects, tips, and celebrity designer interviews. There’s a new issue coming on on September 1 so keep your eyes out! Here’s the replay of the hangout:
Bella Crafts Quarterly Hangout- pre-trip
Coming soon… trip details! Wish me luck with packing 🙂
You must be super excited, now on the countdown. Just signed up for the magazine. Hope all goes well and that you enjoy the trip! Anne x
Thanks Anne- yes I am excited…and nervous… and having many emotions right now 🙂 thanks for being there…
So excited for you! Have a wonderful road trip – I love reading Bella, fab magazine and free!

Hi Carole- thanks! I agree Bella has great content and free is always nice!
I will be following your paper trail with great delight. Thanks for the link to the G+ podcast type thing. It was fabulous to get a tour of your space. The best part was when you said you stored your dies in the fridge! You could still do that, but they would have to be contained in boxes or trays or something to stop them flying about while you drive and velco them to the sides too, like you did with that other drawer set. That could work a treat.
Thanks for watching Brenda! I could do that with the dies in the fridge with trays and Velcro! I have to measure it again and see if that would be the most efficient use of that space. I am looking in my living room at the piles of boxes yet to go out there- LOYS of stuff :-0 I plan on doing another video when it’s all packed up- Hope you follow the trip 🙂 Thanks for commenting!

You are making me cry Lisa… I hope you know it means a lot to have you Bella friends with me- I feel like I am not alone out there. Thanks so much for your support and friendship for so many fun years. It’s great to see all the amazing things you have accomplished since we met 🙂 Thanks for coming along for the ride!
Eileen, I LOVE hearing about your PaperTrails! I feel like I’m actually with you…lol! Best part about it is that I get to sleep in my own bed…lol. So much fun hearing about your new products and seeing all the GREAT samples everyone comes up with. It’s really inspirational. ( Just wish I had more time to create.) I think I dream crafts to be honest with you! Have FUN and be safe!!!
Thanks Debbie- glad you are along for the ride 🙂
