Hi everyone! It seems like ages since I’ve sat down to write a new release post. That is probably because it’s been at least three weeks, maybe more. In case you had not already heard, my father-in-law fell and suffered a severe brain injury early in the month. He has been in the ICU ever since and we are still sitting hospital vigil with him as often as possible, praying for his full recovery. It has left me little time to work… so I apologize for my long absence. I am trying to work a little balance into life again… I’m still in NJ right now, supporting my husband’s family as best I can, but I’m also carving out a little bit of time each day to try anf get some work done. We’ve a long road ahead – your prayers are sincerely appreciated. My father-in-law’s name is Marvin.

That all said, let’s move on to some happy news, ok? I did finally make some time to put a slew of new goodies into my stores this week and they are all 20% off now through August 4th, so don’t miss them while you have a chance to save a little cash! Plus, I may have tucked a freebie in at the end of the post and I think you will love it. Wishing you all a superb weekend filled with hugs from those you love! ** Trixie **

First up this week is my Black Tie Event collection. It’s perfect for all the formal events in your life from weddings to the prom and everything in between. The collection includes a full kit and five additional support products, helping you get those pages (and your blog) just right!
