Hopping Along.....

Where has the time gone? It's been almost a month since my last post. I don't think I can say that I've done a good job with my word "Focus", unless you consider that all of my focus has been on work. That is not what I want to focus on. So today, I'll focus on the creative opportunities I have upcoming - two swaps/blog hops!

First up is the Holiday Bling Blog Hop 3. Once again, Marlene & Shelley of Swaps by Marlene & Shelley have come up with a terrific idea! Partners who will swap surrounding an upcoming holiday in February/March. I've been paired with the lovely Sherri Stokey of Knot Just Macrame. Holy Maccaroni! This lady is talented! We have come up with the concept of trading components that we've made ourselves. The holiday we're representing? Sherri is a hoot! She found a holiday on March 16th - Everything You Do Is Right Day!!! I. LOVE. IT! We're swapping spring themed components - it will be perfect so stay tuned. Reveal day just happens to be on our holiday - how fab is that?!

Next up is the 7th Bead Soup Blog Party hosted by the amazing Lori McDaniel Anderson of the Pretty Things blog. My partner for this swap is the very sweet Sumi Rani of the HundredColors blog. Our reveal date is March 30. Sumi is from India and I'm having a great time getting to know her. I've received my soup and I'll post about that tomorrow. I think she may have received my soup this past Saturday - I hope.

Now, to focus on things I need to get done today on this President's Day holiday so I can get into my studio for a bit this afternoon and work on these two creative opportunities! Have a great day!
