Hi everyone! Yes, I'm still alive. I don't know what has happened - I have had so many thoughts running through my head lately and so much that I've wanted to share - that whenever I sit down to post I get overwhelmed and my mind goes blank. And then it had just been so long since I posted...that I just didn't post. Lame! LOL!
I guess the little break was good for me...I'm feeling more creative and inspired than ever. I can't sleep at night cause I have so much I want to do! It's exciting - a lot of ideas is fun. So, I'm hoping that I can get back into the swing of things around here and share lots more - I promise! I hope you all still come by! :) Sorry about the break.
Ok - anyway -
My 'A Year of You' April Class is up at Two Peas today. I love this month's layout and class - lots of fun techniques and things to do! If you want to check it out, go here and you can also stop by the Education Forum and chat with us about the class here.
I had so much fun creating this layout - all the photos, the envelope, stamping, embossing, die-cutting, sewing and more. So fun! I hope that you like it and that it inspires you - in some way - in creating your April layout for this year. Be sure to share it when your done at Two Peas and link on the thread in the Education Forum (linked up above). We all want to see your projects!!!

Also, be sure to check out Stamp Camp that is still going on. It's one week 3 with Nichol Magourik and Jen McGuire will be next week. I love Stamp Camp - so check it out! Such fabulous stamping ideas!

I also wanted to share some super fun things that are in the Two Peas store right now...and some great steals with some fabulous prices!!!
This is 75% off and is only $10 - hello! I'm gonna snag one for sure!
This is so cool - I'm getting one or two for my closet to help keep those stickers organized. Love that!
This is amazing - and hello - an amazing price! If you have room for this somewhere in your house - please buy it! I'm seriously tempted to buy one for Madisyn's room and do something cool with that bottom rod. It's soooo cute and a fabulous price!!!
This line is so cute! I've got most of it in my bucket right now - so cute!
And don't forget to check out the Stamp Sale while you are there! I recently got these, these, and these and love them all!
Also, Amy and I were lucky enough to be able to get together most of Friday and hit some fabulous fabric stores (we found some awesome stuff - I have a serious weakness for fabric!) and then we went to her house and worked on our new inspiration books that we are creating! We are using these (which is even on sale right now) as a starting point and adding lots of fun goodies to them! We spent most of the night die-cutting things from my new Silhouette machine and all the fabulous designs from Kerri Bradford. We had so much fun and I can't stop thinking about things to put in there!
I also got on Friday (just in time as I was leaving to hang out and create with Amy) my Kit of the Month from Creating Keepsakes: Just for Fun! Seriously - have you seen this kit? Oh my...full of awesome transparencies and embellishments! I love the flat brads too! They are huge and so cool! And...the stamp is what sold me on the kit. I know - I'm a sucker for stamps too - but it's amazing! A huge arrow with months on one side and the other side is the alphabet - it's sooo cool! Amy ordered a kit too but she didn't have it yet so we had fun stamping with that stamp all night. I threw in some of the 4x6 photo transparencies into my book and I'm embellishing them right now. Hopefully I'll share some tomorrow...they are so cool! I always just go to LisaBearnson.com and click on KOTM tab and it takes me to the new kits each month. Check it out - way cool! :)
I'll share picts of my journal super soon - it's a work in progess - but I'll show pages as I go. I also took pictures of the last project Amy and I did so I'll share those this week too! I promise! :) I'm gonna get back into posting!
Ok - this is super long! Just had some fun links to share! I hope you enjoy the class - go check it out and download the PDF for the fun envelope template too!
Hugs! Happy Monday!

I am not one to comment too much on blogs, but I just wanted to comment here to let you know that you are one of my favorite scrapbookers. I love seeing what new stuff you come up with at the Hero blog and at 2peas. I also check here in hopes of something new posted. :) I have never seen a LO of yours that I didn't like. The little details you put into all your LOs are superb and just the right touch. Just wanted to let you know that you are BY FAR one of the best.

Drop dead gorgeous Robyn! I always love your LOs and always trying to find different words than saying "I love it". LOL!
Thanks for all the links! I'm a die hard peas fan but sometimes there is too much stuff...so it makes it hard to pick something out, but if you pick it out, its good!!
