IT'S NEXT WEEK!!

In less than one week (October 30 to be exact) lots and lots of women - I mean hundreds - will join me and Georgana in our Big Picture Scrapbooking class called Cut the Crazy out of Christmas. I have been working on this for so long - fifteen years of 'real-time' classes with my friend Norma Olsen - and now it's going to be online to help women all over the world. I'm excited and proud of everything we put together. Great downloadable handouts, fun projects and a planner that will help get us all organized. Here are a couple of the email ads (that I wrote) that went out to thousands of BPS customers:
Christmas is a time of great excitement and activity - and sometimes chaos. It's also a time when we want to feel moments of peace and joy.
The things we long for at Christmas:
--opportunities to sit by the fire with family and friends
--time to create handmade gifts
--activities with children that include service & creativity -
these simply won't happen if we don't PLAN ahead and then leave space for them on our December calendars.
Christmas gets crazy because we try to cram everything into four short weeks. At some point, we must accept that it is unrealistic to have it all, do it all, and be it all.
The Cut the Crazy out of Christmas approach helps you so that:
{Love and joy can really be yours this holiday season.}

The 'cut the crazy' ladies, Georgana and Debbie, teamed with Big Picture Scrapbooking, can help bring a new perspective on how you approach Christmas this year. The workshop includes a downloadable planner that will change the way you plan for the holidays…plus projects and lots of ideas. We invite you to join us!

Cut the Crazy out of Christmas
Have yourself a merry and organized Christmas! Georgana Hall and Debbie Raymond are here to show you how in a holiday class called Cut the Crazy out of Christmas.

The interesting thing about Christmas is that it can be challenging in different ways depending on your circumstances. Christmas has the power to magnify our emotions, positive or negative. Well, Georgana and Debbie want to help! They believe that with some reflection and planning (and good old positive attitude), the holidays can be a time of joy, no matter what your situation.

The goal of this workshop is to help you look ahead and prepare in a way that will make the holiday season more positive and meaningful. Georgana and Debbie have lots of ideas for traditions, decorating, and parties. You'll love the downloadable Christmas planner to get help you get organized. Together you'll compare notes with other BPS students about their holiday stresses and successes.
Sign up now: peace and organization are just around the corner!
