Hello sweet friends... I wanted to let you know that I'll be away for a while (not sure how long). There is some stuff going on with my job and we have to work extra days/hours (6 days per week - 12 hours per day... YAY... NOT!!). Hopefully things will settle down soon enough so I can get back here and back to crafts!
While I'm gone, I thought it would be fun to share tutorials and crafts from out and about instead!
Yesterday MomChops sent me an AWESOME tutorial on how to make these adorable trees and I knew it would be the perfect project to kick this off!
(there are even free templates)
Go HERE to Joggles to check out the tutorial!
I can hardly wait to make a whole FOREST of these (in teal of course) ASAP!!!
(EEPS!!!)
I'll be posting links to other blogs and fun tutorials like this until I can get back to crafts, so if you have any links you want to share, send me an email or leave a comment on this post!
Wish me luck! I'll miss the heck out of youse guys!
Aaaaaw, my heart is sad... :(

Dang, don't you hate it when work interferes with real life ;)...I thought by your title that you were getting ready to take a vacation and come to visit me in Boston. Bummer!!! Hang in there, sending "tealy" happy hugs your way. XO.

I'm thinking maybe your working for the same company my husband does. He also starting today has to work 6 day work week and 12 hrs. a day. He does work from home so at least he'll be "around" but it's a bummer~ until things get straightened out he'll be "away"..... Love the tree's, gonna check out that site! thanks~
