HI Out There!!!!!

HI Divas and Dukes,

We're back!!!!! Sorry we've been quiet on the Blog front. Rayme and I have been working furiously to finish the projects for our new book "Designing With the Divas."
It has been an awesome journey. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time and I just needed to sit and focus and START!!!

Rayme has been such a delight to work with on this book. I can't wait to do the next one!!!! Oh yes, we have an idea already. Once you start you can't stop... it's better than potato chips!!!!

One of the MOST exciting things about this book is all our wonderful friends have also created something "Diva-lish" to be added to this extravaganza in crafts. I can't go into details but Rayme and I are sooo excited and thankful to have some incredible artists involved. We have so many different ideas and techniques to share. Some new and some that you might not have thought about for a while. This is what it's about. We wanted to inspire people to take some time, sit down with some of your favorite things and just get creative. No pressure and no grades.

Linda laTourelle and her team at Bluegrass Publishing have been so incredible to work with. Kevin has come up with the most amazing cover .....That alone inspired us. Their attention to detail is absolutely wonderful. We are truly blessed.

We're also getting ready for our Cruise. 19 days to go!!! It's our last one ..... We'll do something else so if you didn't get to join us don't worry , we're working on something new. Jan Mollet-Evsns has been the best partner to work with and I'm soooo appreciative of her talents and friendship. We work for 9 months to prepare for this not so little soiree. I'm looking forward to seeing our "Alumni" Divas and meeting some new ones.

Ok, It's getting close to show time so I must go and prepare for our terrific Guests today. We're very excited to have Angie Lucas from Simple Scrapbooks, Margot Potter "The Impatient Beader" and our dear friend Karan Olson-Smith from Magic Mesh on the show today.

Hope you have a Diva Day today!
