The new year approaches and there is so many good things in store. New beginnings, new relationships and the wonder of what "might be". What are your scrapbooking resolutions? After all, a thought without a plan is merely a dream.
Plan to make time for your craft.
Plan to organize your stash, even in small collections.
Organize your photos.
Try a new technique.
Tackle your wedding photos, heirloom photos, baby photos.
Purge the stuff that no longer tickles your fancy.
Donate the leftovers.
Sell the stuff that you never opened.
These are great ways to start your New Years' resolutions.
(Another great resolution is to try to socialize and get out more...that's what our Go All Night Scrapbook event is all about! Enjoy your craft and give to a great cause! )
Happy New Year everyone! The best is yet to come!

The Gathering
This is the stage of organizing an event of this magnitude that always gets our hearts pumping! In amongst the excitement of the holidays, the joy and cheer, we manage to squeeze in a request for the fundraiser.
This past week, I have touched base with people from Southern Alberta, the West Coast, all the way down to Illinois! It always amazes me that no matter where in the world we scrapbook, we all speak a similar language. We all love to support the greater good!
We also have some of our first registrants booked for March! Way to go! We are optimistic that it's sure to be a good one!
Also, for those of you that load the registration form, and would like to jump on the "lunch card" bandwagon, bear with us, we will load the "order" sheet in the next week or so. You can also contact me and I can email it to you at smith.scraps@gmail.com
Have a great weekend! And stay tuned!

We will remember them...
November 11th is one week away. Where will you be at 11:00 am?
Take time to remember wherever you are...
Looking to connect our craft to this day? Make a personal layout about Freedom. What does freedom mean to you? What makes you feel free? What does a poppy represent for you? What legacy do you want to leave behind for your children, when they think of Remembrance Day?
Record your thoughts, and Remember our Fallen...
Lest We Forget

All Revved Up...
Whew! We just returned from a wonderful crop event in Peace River, Alberta. The crop was hosted by Jennifer Thietke & Megan Curry. Classes were instructed by Stepheny Fenton. What a great time!
We booked a room at Third Mission. What a fabulous place! Worth a stop when you are overnighting in P.R.

Anyway, this weekend just pumped me up to get the planning underway for our fabulous March event! Stick around and see what's new in the start of November here at the blog!
Enjoy!

Happy Halloween!
Wow! The weather is turning cooler....the leaves have fallen, and the ghosties and goblins are getting geared up to come a 'knockin'
How about a great crafty project, from a super-crafty guy?
Check out Tim's Blog, and see what he shares when he teaches you about halloween tags, distress inks, and, of course, some kraft-resist paper!
Good luck with your tricks!
Till next time,
Bon
