Falling into BBG


Ask me where I was 4 weeks ago, and I can tell you it wasn't a good place. My mind has been racing about the future of my shoppe, working my day job and just being a mom of active kiddos. Oh, and my little brother is getting married in 18 days. I'm pretty sure I heard a motor burn out and possibly seen a trickle of smoke passing by my eyeballs.


And then the mornings and nights got colder. I love Fall. I love the colors, the smells and just being able to layer my clothes. I have so much more enthusiasm to wake up in the morning (ok, that's a bit of a stretch, I'm not a big fan of mornings). But... the creativity is flowing. My Halloween and Fall papers are out and I'm ready to add some new creations to the mix.

I've set some new goals for myself and I look forward to sharing all of my Autumn-inspired creations. Until then...

Heather

My Go-To Embellishment


So, you are working on a scrapbook layout or card and something is missing--or you just need a pinch of color in an empty spot? What do you reach for? My go-to embellisments are buttons. I don't buy any overly-expensive buttons. I have jars separated by color and when I need a little something, that is normally where I reach.


They are great for the centers of flowers, or tie a piece of ribbon in a bow or knot through the center. I also just cluster them in empty space or add them to pages that have circles.


So the next project you do that leaves you wanting to add a little extra embellishment, just remember those buttons!


'Til next time :)

Prima Marketing

I'm very excited to be getting Prima Marketing Inc. supplies at BBG. My order has been placed and will hopefully ship soon. I actually just can't wait to start using them! They will be listed for sale as soon as they arrive. The first shipment will include many flowers and I just had to get the WHOLE umbrella line. Until then, I can brainstorm... Heather
