Last Look at Daily Grind

 It's time to take one final look at last week's new release, Daily Grind!



Here is some more layout inspiration from Connie's Creative Team with this fabulous collection.


I'm feeling the need for some strong caffeinated beverage at the moment, it's been a LONG week with testing, odd schedules, tons of new students, late night event at campus #2 and another one tonight at campus #1, and a medical procedure planned for Friday morning.  I'm so tired my tired is tired.  Good thing we're heading into a 3 days weekend so I can catch up on some rest and since my foot is going to have me out of commission where I can't go hiking this weekend, I plan on reading, crocheting, scrapbooking, and sleeping.  What are your plans for this Labor Day weekend?

Your freebie for today was created by CTM Theresa with Daily Grind.  Enjoy!

Take $2 Tuesday (& Wednesday) Sale + FREEBIE

 It's a glorious day to save on two fabulous kits by Connie!  PC Golden Brown is full of deep rich chocolate colors that make me want to curl up with a good book and sip on hot chocolate while At Home harkens to a dream where I wished for a house with a big wrap around porch where I could hang a swing and surround myself with growing flowers and green plants.

My Memories




Connie's newest release, Daily Grind, is a delicious brew of warm colors and caffeinated elements.  It's sure to deliver a kick of epic proportions!  Seriously, the clustering possibilities make this a must in my collection




Things are still a bit hectic at work so I'm running on a bit of fumes at the moment, to the point that coffee can't even break through the brain fog.  I'm also dealing with a health issue that is causing me a bit of anxiety at the moment so prayers would be appreciated.  I have to have a surgical procedure on Friday that I'm not sure how it's going to impact my ability to do my job, especially traveling (by traveling I mean walking between my two campuses twice a day) and standing for pretty much 7 straight hours.  God has been faithful to pull me through many storms in life and I'm praying that He'll see fit to pull me through this one too.

How about a freebie created with Paint Chips Golden Brown?  This sweet cluster was created by CTM Kelly just for you!


See you soon!

Sneak Peek Sunday

 With September peeking around the corner, this sneak peek has a bit of an autumnal feel going on.


I can't wait for this collection to drop into Connie's stores at the end of this week!  I'm sure it's going to quickly become a fan favorite!  If you would like an opportunity to win this kit, head over to Club Connie Prince on Facebook and leave a comment on this week's sneak peek post.  Some lucky Connie fan will be receiving this when it releases!

Calling all coffee aficionados!  Connie has brewed up a strong yet satisfying new kit called Daily Grind that is sure to interest you.  I can smell the dark roast and the caramel cream from here.  Actually, I'm not much of a coffee drinker through we have found some cappuccino K-cups that I like to drink occasionally.  My husband likes his one coffee a day morning kick off though and I can appreciate the aroma as it's brewing.


This kit is great for off topic layouts too.  The color combination is one of my all-time favorites!


BLOG FREEBIE #1


BONUS FREEBIE - #2

The other day one of you asked if we could share a cluster freebie without the journal tag.  Luckily, CTM Theresa had her original Paint Chips: Watermelon Vine layout in layered form still and was able to fulfill your request.  She made two versions because it didn't look right to her and I've included both options in the download.  Enjoy!


Have a blessed Sunday!
