Hello September
Tags:
Hope you had a lovely weekend! I'm transitioning back to our fall schedule - early to bed and early to rise, helping kids get settled in new routines with new teachers and classrooms and possibilities, establishing new work hours, planning out the next few months, etc.
Here's a few updates for September:
NEW BLOG SPONSORS
Big welcome to my newest blog sponsors:
ARCHIVER'S | Your source for creative ways to enjoy and preserve the special moments in life. Did you know you can shop Archiver's online? Check out their coupon for 20% off online orders. Shop online here.
CREATING KEEPSAKES UNIVERSITY & CREATING KEEPSAKES CONVENTIONS |Happy to have CKC and CKU back as blog sponsors this month. Check out information on the three upcoming CKU events this fall here. Check out information on upcoming CK Conventions here.
WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT SPONSORSHIP? If you're interested in learning about sponsorship opportunities on my site or in my weekly newsletter (19,000 subscribers) send me an email. Special sponsorships for December Daily will also be available soon.
ONE LITTLE WORD
There's a new prompt available in the One Little Word classroom.
31 THINGS
I had originally planned to run 31 More Things (the second phase of my 31 Things workshop) this month but decided to wait until 2013 (most likely first quarter next year). If you missed the original 31 Things workshop it will be available as a self-paced workshop (daily emails with writing and photo prompts for 31 days) soon. I'll let you know when that's available.
DECEMBER DAILY
I'm definitely planning to do December Daily again this year. There will be a kit available from Studio Calico again for 2012 - more details to come on that soon! If you are new to the concept of December Daily and what it's all about, check out my compilation page here.
Excited to let you know about my friend Mati Rose's new collaboration RE: CONNECT - Get Unstuck & Find Your Magic.
We all find ourselves lost at sea from time to time. As artists, and creative entrepreneurs, we have navigated the murky waters, and developed tools, tricks and inspiring resources that have helped us reconnect, get unstuck and find our way back to the flow in our creativity, and the magic in our lives.
In this 5-week online e-course, we’ll take you on a journey to get unstuck, and cultivate:
more clarity around what you want
more peace in your body
more spaciousness in how you hold time
more connection to your creativity
more passion in all areas of your life
More details and register here.

Sounds like a busy but cool September.
I'm glad that 31 is moving to the first quarter, while I was looking forward to it before December (figuring you wouldn't combine it with the December Daily) I didn't think I had time. Looking forward to the SC kit too!

Did WITL for the first time this year so maybe it's time to do December Daily for the first time as well.

I am also glad that 31 Things is moving to 2013. I had a hard drive crash and lost a lot of what I had finished in the first session and need to start over. My fault for not backing it up!! Can't wait for DD!!

I did December Daily for the first time last year and absolutely adore the finished project! I can't wait to look through it again when we pull out our Christmas stuff and will definitely be following along again this year! Thanks for a great project!

So excited about the SC, you, and Dec Daily. I loved the kit you used last year. It made it so easy for me to follow along and use the album. No having to buy a bunch of stuff from other vendors.

Glad round 2 of 31 Things has moved back a bit--I would have signed up whenever it was offered, but I will keep up much better when life is a bit quieter! Something to look forward to after the craziness of Fall and Christmas!

Can't wait for the updates on December Daily! Such a fun project! I've attempted 2 years in a row, taken the photos and journalled and never ended up putting it all together, so this year I plan on starting early!
I'm also looking forward to 31 Things, but am still finishing off the last one since it's been such a crazy few months, so I'm glad it's pushed back a little!

So excited about December Daily! WOW, December will be here before we know it! Ouch! I've done it two years in a row and it was so wonderful. Need to plan early and make the decision fast whether to go paper or digital.
Loved the SC kit last year and I agree with whomever said, ask them to make more kits available. I missed out last year and regretted it. We're in the last quarter of the year. Better get started!
