Latest Creative Memories News

So I am super excited about the party I had on the 6th. I sold well over $300 in products! (self praise time) Way to go me! I am also so excited that because my party's sales were over $250 and being the host, I then received 15% of the party's sales in free products. I now have $59 to spend, and I so can't decide...there are so many options, but I most definitely will wait for the new products on March 1st. I got a preview of the catalog at Becky's and there is some cute stuff!
I was totally going to get going on making the invites for Jeremy and Tim's bday bash today, but alas Jeremy didn't put a cd-rom in when he got us a new computer case. Now I'll have to wait till he gets home to load my new digital software. Also, on my list of scrapbook to-dos is create an invite for Sarah's bridal shower, but I guess that will wait for a few more days as it's not till April. I'm just so excited to get going on my new software...anyways I am really just procrastinating working on my scrapbook pages from Italy. I have reached the point where I don't want to look at them any longer...might have to move on with the digital stuff before I can be motivated about Italy again.
I also put together the super cute Valentine's themed paper book I got a few weeks ago, just put random pics of Jeremy and I and Guinness from the last year or so. Not really a present for Jeremy, just something we can both enjoy around the house. Showed Jeremy and he LOVED it, so that made me super happy, and it is now on our bar for all to enjoy! =) All in all I am really enjoying being a Creative Memories consultant, you know how much I love to be creative and make things from scratch! Just wishing more people would realize they need to, and not in an over the top super creative way, just in a take care of your pictures so your kids can tell its you in the pictures kind of way. Also, I think often about what it would be like for a family to have no story to go along with the pictures, like if I sadly had Alzheimer's like my great grandpa, I wouldn't know when or where our pictures were taken. But since I basically write about entire life story alongside our pictures (I'm over the top i know)then I don't worry that my kids, grandkids, and great grandkids will totally know who we both are. Sorry, just my two cents for today on the topic of scrapbooking. Off to Italy!
