CHA.... Crate paper, Pink Paislee, Ranger and Tim Holtz,

Okay so I never post pictures of me. I always hate them. But then I would not be able to show you me with the girls at CHA so you get one or two me! This was at the Kaiser make and take table. What a great company. Love love love all of their great products. The woman (Melissa) who helped us with the make and takes was such a kick to and made it so much fun to hang out there. So here is Heather, Jenn and I at cha, (I am on the one on the bottom right).


Here is Julie from our message board (designs for clear scraps), Heather, Me, and Jenn...

Crate paper??? Do you love it??? Lots of new paper packs coming in from their new releases! I can hardly wait for it to get here. Gorgeous stuff!



Pink Paislee was a huge HIT again this show. We bought both lines and everything in each line for the store soooo keep an eye out. They said it should be shipping in 3 weeks. Both lines are simply gorgeous!!!!

Here is a beautiful layout made my Heather Prins using the the new Pink Paislee line - Pop Fashion, some Chatterbox pink Artsylicious, Prima flowers & bling, American Crafts glittered thickers, My Mind's Eye transparency and Karen Russell's Bloom line journaling book (Creative Imaginations)!

You all know I just love my Timmy. We let me just say his products and the other products at Ranger were simply incredible! They made wall hangings and so much more that were like pieces of fine art. I can hardly wait to get some time to play with the new things I learned how to do from Timmy. Can I just also say he is even nicer in person then you can ever imagine. Very down to earth and if he has a fat head you would never ever know it! Awesome Guy!!

We are slowly but surely moving on with our lives around here. This has been a very tough week. Tomorrow my oldest daughter is coming to visit. I can hardly wait to pick her up at the airport. I miss her to pieces. Then Sunday we have my youngest daughter birthday party. SO lots around here keeping me busy. I think for the time it is a GOOD thing.

I ordered tons and tons of the new products coming out soon. The store will be stocked. Our kits starting in Oct will have new releases and be more stocked then ever before for the same price. Be sure to get your subscription in before they are sold out. I think we have a couple left still for Sept.

HUGS to all,

Stacey

Thank you to all my message board girls, blog friends and DT's

The plants, flowers and cards have poured in. How do I ever say enough for you all to understand just how much it has meant to be and my family? You have filled our hearts with smiles and made us shed a few sweet tears. I just want you all to know how much I so appreciate all the kind words and heartfelt love you have sent to us. I tried to post a picture of the flowers, plants and cards but Blogger is not letting me, sorry.
Just know how blessed I feel to have friends like all of you.

Today has been a roller coaster of emotions. Caught myself wanting to tell him something about CHA, but that will happen no more. Makes my heart so sad. Every time I feel overcome with the grief I try to picture him and my MIL walking hand and hand again. I have tried to keep myself busy today with store stuff and birthday shopping for my DD. It's the moments I slow down that it all hits hard. I think I will keep myself busy for a very long time.

Be sure to remember to appreciate what you have in life! Appreciate and love the dear family and friends you have. While I was driving today I had to call my DH and just say " THANK YOU for the wonderful life we live and all the love he shows the kids and I" how blessed am I to have that. Don't waste any moments! This is so why we girls scrapbook too... We want to preserve the memories for those we will some day leave behind. Keep scrapping and writing the stories!

Thank you again for making me feel very special!
Hugs,
Stacey

In loving Memory of my Father inlaw Tom...

Today after a year long fight with ALS ( Lou Gehrig's disease ) we must sadly say good bye to my father inlaw. I could write a book on all the loving things he did for all of us. He lived a good honest life and had a deep caring for everyone. He was my biggest supporter of starting All Moments Remembered. He has encouraged me the whole way. I will continue running this business with my heart but also in honor of him.




God looked around his garden and found an empty place,
He then looked down upon the earth, and saw your tired face.
He put his arms around youand lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautifulhe always takes the best
He knew that you were suffering he knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough and the hills were hard to climb
so he closed your weary eyelids, and whispered, "Peace be thine,"
It broke our hearts to lose you.
But you didn't go alone,
For part of us went with you the day God called you home.
Thomas Kinkade



I will miss you forever Tom!!! We all so love you! Good bye until we meet again...

Sharing Your Story: Recording Life's Details with Mini Books by Ali Edwards

Back from CHA, what an amazing trip it was. I had the pleasure once again of talking with Ali Edwards and watching her do her magic on a mini album in person. How do you explain Ali??? REAL!!! She gets it!! She is one of us who just love this industry but filled with amazing talent. We watched her in the Ranger booth work with the inks and dyes on acrylic albums. Like Ali called it, she was " JUST DROPPING" dropping drops of inks on the acrylic to see what we could come up with from the inks. Not worrying about being perfect but having fun making the album to preserve memories! I admire her even more and she gave me a boost of courage to try more things and go easier on myself with them.


I had her new book "Sharing Your Story: Recording Life's Details with Mini Books" by Ali Edwards in my hands at the show. Girls this is a must have! This book is $19.99 and the information you will read and learn from in this book is PRICELESS!! You can now preorder the book which will be released the first part of August in the All Moments Remembered Store. I have ordered a large stack of them but would love to have more idea so I know if I need to order even more. So please save your place in line for this book by placing your preorder today. You will not be charged until the book ships out to you.



Heather Prins ( AMR Design Coordinator) with Ali at CHA.


Jennifer Emch (Design Team member) with Ali at CHA. Jenn has had the pleasure of working for Ali at a couple CKU's. Wild to see Ali walk up and hug someone you are with because Ali knows them. WOW!!!


This is Ali giving Tim Holtz his much needed break at the Ranger booth. Notice Timmy talking with someone in the back ground!! Ali showed us how to use the Tim Holtz™ Adirondack® Alcohol Inks. She had this very technical name for it even... Just dropping!! These inks are on their way to the store now!! SO keep a watch out and we will also be adding some great links on using them.

All Moments Remember kits will be selling out even faster when everyone starts seeing the new product lines we will be stocking our kits with. The kits have always been stocked with yummy goodness. They will be stocked even fuller at the same price to you with all the new CHA goodies starting in Oct. If you have not signed up yet for a subscription you need to run to the AMR store and be sure to get your name on the list for your kits!! Don't wait until they are sold out. We still have a couple left for Sept's kit but like always they will soon be sold out too.

I will be posting more pictures and stories from CHA daily so please be sure to come back and visit.
Have a beautiful week and hug those you love,
Stacey

Have you said THANK YOU?

Happy 4th of July. Have you remembered to say thank you to all the families who fight in our war or stay back at home and care for everything alone while a family member is off making sure we have our freedom? Freedom does not come cheep and many families pay the ultimate price. THANK YOU to all of them!! Thank you for allowing me to live my dreams and raise my children with freedom. I appreciate you all!!




And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.~Lee Greenwood
May this holiday weekend remind you to appreciate all you have,
Stacey

This month's write up has a special place in Heather's heart. You see 7 years ago she lost her best friend. She was 32 years old and she died of Colon Cancer. She was a beautiful, wonderful person and the world just isn't the same without her. Since her death I have had the same dream many times (not so much now) and I believe she came back to me this way until I was ok. I have felt her around me so many times but these dreams are so amazingly real, I can hardly even describe them to you in the detail that I feel them... a breeze across my face when the window is closed, the warmth of her hand in mine, the cool grass beneath me - I feel it all and it makes me smile, because those lost loved ones really are only a breath away from us.


Heather's inspiration for the kit..
The path is dark, a little frightening. I feel the soft cushion of pine needles beneath my feet, muffling the sound of my steps. I can smell the heady scent of the forest, the moss on the trees is soft to my touch. There is a light up ahead! I am drawn to it. I feel myself skipping towards it, then running and then...I see it- the most breathtaking sight I have ever seen!! The birds, the butterflies, the scent of a million flowers all dancing in the gentle breeze of this perfect woodland meadow. I squint my eyes against the sun, looking for something, but I am not sure what. And then, there you are! Beautiful, as always, and smiling. As I reach out for you I see a little hand, mine, but much smaller, and it is then that I notice the little white dress and my tiny barefeet. When I look up, I see that you are you, but younger too! I run to hug you and we laugh and giggle like the children we are. Holding hands we dance through the flowers. I see the breeze lift your hair and watch as the silken strands dance in the wind. We spend the day together in this vibrant, natural place but the day goes by too fast and we collapse near the waterfall, to gaze up at the stars that are just beginning to come out. I feel the tears stream down my face when I think about not seeing you again. To have this day again, to laugh with you, hug you and just be near you is a true treasure. I feel my breath quicken as I realize I only have moments with you now, I squeeze your hand tighter and vow never to let you go, please don't go! You smile at me and all at once my sadness disappears and I am filled with the most incredible feeling of love. You are not gone from me, you live here, in my heart, only a breath away. In a blink you are gone and as I sit on the cool grass I can still hear the song of your laughter echoing through the valley and as I get up to leave, the prettiest little dragonfly rests upon my arm, as if guiding me home.Blinking I sit up...where are you? was it just a dream? It felt so real but the hand clasped in mine is my own. The breath I had been holding rushes out in a laughing sigh, as I let go and rest my hands beside me on the bed. The meadow is gone, replaced by the shadowy stillness of my room. I climb out of bed, shaking the last vestiges of sleep from my head, still caught somewhere between our dream time and the reality of my world, without you. It is then that I notice the iridescent wings of the creature poised delicately on my window, shining, flickering in the early morning light. And I smile as the dragonfly takes flight. "Au revoir, my friend, come and visit me again"
