Since my daughter moved to the UK in 2005 I have been travelling there to visit her. Of course I don't go anywhere without checking out the local scrapbooking, crafting and quilting shops and buying a few of the local magazines to keep me inspired.
A few years ago I came across this magazine based in England - "Scrapbook Magazine"

"Britain's biggest selling scrapbook magazine". Just recently I was asked if I would like to submit a layout for a future publication. So... this month, in Issue 62, my "Love in Paris" layout is featured on page 66.

Stay tuned for my featured designer profile in an upcoming issue.

2nd BLOG-iversary & Scrap That! Kit Giveaway

Where does the time go? I need 24 more hours in each day to accomplish everything on my to-do list.
It is now exactly 365 days until my daughter's wedding, so this is "the year of Meagan" (a phrase I coined from my friend Lorna, after she dedicated an entire year to herself so she could plan her own wedding). I am making everything... from the wedding invitations to adding the bling to her wedding dress... I have 10+ projects to complete before next April, but I am so excited.
I'm super busy these days, but wouldn't have it any other way. I continue to work part-time as manager for a private oil & gas company, my baby blanket business is doing really well and averaging 15-20 blankets a month, I try to complete a project for my blog two to three times a month, I scrapbook 3-4 times a month at regularly scheduled Saturday crops with my "BWB" gals who keep my creative juices as well as my tears of laughter flowing! I'm working for Scrap That! handling the pre-orders for Dusty Attic and I'm working for my brother-in-law's company, Kona Coast Vacations handling online reservation inquiries... which of course just has to lead to a vacation in Kailua-Kona every year!
Variety is the spice of life and I'm excited to have a number of things to keep my days full of variety... and even though I'm so busy jumping from one project to another, I am blessed to be happy doing the things that I love.
So in celebration of my 2nd year blogging and a thank you to all my followers, I will randomly choose one of my followers to receive this beautiful Scrap That! kit. So leave a comment and become and follower and your name will be entered into the draw.
