Thanks for sharing your heart and artwork with us. As a fellow (US) Maker, I've been grieving, as well. My mojo started coming back just over a week ago. It was fits and starts at first. I'm so thankful for the new opportunity that Jeanette and her team have helped put into place, and it makes me hopeful for the future. Wishing you all the best.

Such a cute layout! I was super shocked at 1st about the closing and then I felt some relief because I had begun feeling like all I was doing was buying and creating to show and sell and not really buying and creating for me! So, I thought it was the perfect time to just sit back and create for me. I thought I could go through my stash and still have my girls over for workshops to support my papercraft habit/hobby! I was content! Lol, and then the offer comes along from Stampin'UP. I am going to join but I really don't think I will sell. I'm just going to go with the plan and see what happens!

We love scraping with you too Nat ❤

I have been missing you, so sorry this has happened to you... twice, I can't imagine, I've been with ctmh for 17 years, it was my retirement plan, but I am hopeful, companies, come and go but the love for papercrafting and the communities and friendships they build remain. So glad you had a friend that could convince you to continue crafting.

Both layouts look great! Have been thinking of you and all the ex Kaszazz / CTMH girls! I've also been in a bit of a scrapbook funk lately so watching lots of KZfaq to try and get more inspiration! 😂😂
