Finally back! Come join the hop!

Hi all!

I know I have been away for a long time.....seems like forever actually; but I am back finally.  Well, for those that tend to follow my blog here is what has been going on since my last post.  I got "the crud" that has been going around and in the midst of it, I found out that my anemia is back in full force.  So for the last month, I have been battling the crud along with everyone in the house (luckily for them, it hasnt been as bad as for me), trying to get a schedule back after the holidays and fight this new round of IV Iron.  I think I have caught you up..... so to say the least, I have barely been keeping up with the Embroidery business (that is thankfully thriving), let alone work on digital scrapbooking design.

However, I have had a few minutes here and there to participate in a couple of the collaborations for With Love Studio.  The one you get to see now is a beautiful blog hop that has replaced January's Daily Download.... its called Winter Blues.  It is filled with gorgeous shades of blues that will definately not give you the blues but warm your winter blues.

Before you get my part of the train, I wanted to let you in on some fantastic things also going on this weekend to help you fill your stash for not a lot of money.  There is a store wide yard sale for the weekend, where you can pick up some goodies from all the Designers for only $1.  If that wasn't enough, some of the Designers are also retiring many their designs at outstanding prices to include several of the XOXO Collaborations.  Finally, a sweet addition is that FranB Designs is celebrating her birthday with a 41% sale throughout her store for the weekend....woo hoo!  When you stop by her blog for the hop, make sure to say Happy Birthday!
