My heart is truly heavy over the horrible attack and tragedy yesterday in Boston. I did not hear about the attack until I was driving home from my office. I just started crying. I am angry that someone did this. I am angry that someone or group would want to hurt innocent people. I have been praying for all the victims and their families. I pray that we will find out who did this and justice will be served.
I have been having the most productive couple of days designing and tried hard last night NOT to live in FEAR over the horrible trajic things that keep happening in our world. I decided that I need to create even more from the heart to document and share. It could any one of us. We just never know when our time is up. I had been feeling so inspired to create. I love it when ideas just come together. So last night I designed the monthly TC retailer kit yesterday. I did a really cool mini book for a A-Z story book. Have you heard about this program? I personally design a kit that comes with the instructions, photos and products in a kit. Then they sell them or teach them each month in their store. They have been a HUGE success and I so love this!!!
I wanted to share a sneek peek of our MAY 2013 kit. Now this kit is really cool. I have a double page 12x12 layout and a complete mini book from my stitched notebook. All from my brand new collection- Summer Stories. I did a STORY book that is A-Z about telling your story. I am loving it. I will show the book on My Craft Channel soon too.
If you are a retailer and would like to sign up for our monthly program please email or call Brian Orr (brian@teresacollinsdesigns.com).
The kit for THIS month is a HE SAID/SHE SAID file folder workshop. Yes, you get TWO books in the kit. They are shipping right now.
I wanted there to be a book for a girl and a boy. This kit is so cool and I'm so happy that I could offer two projects in one kit.

I wanted to offer my stores and customers a way to scrapbook with my kits since I can't visit each store. (as much as I wish I could!!!!)
Okay... I really have the best design team. Honestly, these girls are so amazing. I wanted to share what Julie Jacob designed using the Stationery Noted Collection.
Stationery Noted layout using the stamps, the stitched notebook (this is the little one in the package of 2 stitched notebooks), the stitched garland and the die cut borders. I love this layout!
Stitched notebook used for journaling... I LOVE THIS!!!!!
Inside stiched notebook- OKAY this makes my heart happy? Look at his writing? I love that this is real, authentic and he will LOVE looking back on this someday.
I love these beautiful cards. The heart is from my SHE SAID stamps and the LOVE THIS MOMENT. is from Stationery Noted. Look how cute the stitched garland is on the card.
I love how Julie used the stiched larger notebook from Stationery Noted. These come with 10 thick white pages inside and she stitched on the cover. How cool is this? LOVE this and love the stamping. Okay... I am a little obsessed with the stitched notebooks and garland right now.

I would LOVE if you would share your projects with me. I am on facebook at www.facebook/tcdesigns. I would love to see what you are particularily creating with the stiched garlands, stamps and notebooks.
I am hoping the weather will decide to be more Spring here in Utah. I am missing the sunshine and hope that Zach's baseball game does not get cancelled. No more snow please... I am ready for warmth. Have a great day!!!!
