Hi again! Bet you were hoping I wasn't coming back :) well, I'm pretty persistent so you're not getting rid of me that easy. Yes, I admit this Blogging stuff is a lot harder then I anticipated, But I am not yet ready to admit defeat and throw in the towel just yet! I mean really, think about it...I have only ever read one other person's blog before and I didn't even have a profile set up on my Google account, which by the way I only had because I needed it for my phone to work right. **sigh** So I'm sure everyone else out there can easily see everything I am doing wrong! (I am open to any and ALL advice on how to fix any mistakes I made while setting this up) But, like I said...HC says I need a blog so by Jove, I have a blog and I am determined to make it work! (again...open to suggestions here) So far the only advice I've gotten is "blog everyday, even if it's just a short paragraph about your day" so this is my paragraph and I'll try to keep it short.
I made it to my Mother's house safe and sound with DH (dear husband) and both children still intact so that's impressive! Especially since we got a 5 hour late start, thanks to my children, (but that's a story for another day!) Plus we got pulled over just about 40 minutes into our 6 hour drive for the horrendous crime of having a burnt out license plate bulb, yep...I'm a rebel. After being detained on the side of the road for at least half an hour he was "Nice" enough to let us off with a warning. I would like to take this opportunity to suggest to everyone that you go check your bulb! We pulled in around 3:30 am and after only 4 hours of sleep, try as I might to enjoy a day cram packed with crafting I have yet to finish a single solitary project so I'm off to bed as soon as I finish this (I need to feel as if I finished 1 productive thing today) so I can catch up on some sleep and try again tomorrow! I am going to have fun on this trip if it kills me!

Introduction
Hello everyone! My name in Michelle Bolin, I live in Illinois, but haven't always. My family and I moved here a little over 2 years ago from the VERY small country town of Vienna, South Dakota. (nope, you probably won't find it on a map) and the population has dropped considerably since we moved away, as my husband and I have 9 children! (and just as many grand-babies now!) Besides children I also LOVE Pomeranians and bred them for awhile, WHEW! that was a lot of work.
This is my very first blog ever and although I considered starting one several times I was just never really feeling it. With Facebook and all the other social outlets, I wasn't sure the world needed another blogger. (know what I mean?) All that changed today when I saw Heartfelt Creations is looking for new design team members...I am now feeling so inspired! Which brings me to my other passion, SCRAPBOOKING! I absolutely love love love everything to do with paper crafting! I have been scrapbooking for about 8 years now and own an online store as a result of needing to be home to care for the kiddies. I also started teaching Scrap classes in 2010 and found it to be one of the most enjoyable jobs I have ever had!
So what to expect from my blog you may wonder... Lots of craft projects with pictures and instructions, talk of kids and dogs and vampire books (because they are just cool) and scrapping scrapping scrapping ... Oh and possibly some coffee disasters as I <3 me some good coffee and drink it all day long which means I am always wearing at least a little. This is still a constant source of amusement for my kids...hmmmmm :/
Well that about sums it up, now I'm out the door for a much needed short vacation at my mother's filled with using all my Heartfelt products so I can get on that team! I'm so excited to have a great excuse to spend the next 3 days JUST scrapbooking! WooHoo wish me luck! And check back after the Labor Day weekend because I will be sharing all the BEAUTIFUL projects I'm getting ready to make for the design team contest! :)
