A LITTLE OF WHAT IS GOING ON IN MY BUSINESS AND LIFE:
What to write? That is the question. I have no idea what to write to you, %contact.first_name%, today. What would you like to hear about? I would love to hear from you. Please reply to this email to let me know. Are you into Printables or Digital Planners or both? Is there a specific subject you would like to hear about?
Hi, %contact.first_name%, I am so sorry I have been gone for so long. Between working on bundle projects and not feeling well, the time just flew. I did not really realize how much time until my daughter was asking me yesterday when my last newsletter went out. She thought that she hadn’t been getting them all since it had been so long since she had received one from me. Nope, it had already been a week since I sent out a newsletter. I know that today’s newsletter is going out late but I didn’t want to miss another one.
Why is today’s newsletter so later you ask. Well, I had to go to the doctor and then to Radiology Associates to get an x-ray done of my clavicle. First question the doctor and then the x-ray technician asked was if I had fallen. No, I have no idea why my clavicle could be fractured (if it is). Then I realized I had almost fallen a couple of time and caught myself. Maybe that would cause it. I have no idea.
I did manage to get a product in the Mega Mojo Jump-Start Bundle coming out in April. Missed the deadline for the PLR Stack Bundle that started today. Next one to work toward it Ruthie’s Bundle. I should be able to be in that one as I already almost have the product I was making for the PLR Stack Bundle done. I have until the 15th to get this one done. Wish me luck. LOL
Wish me luck that whatever has been making me sleepy all the time goes away and I can get back to working regularly. I hate when I am like this. I will be working away on a project and the next thing I know I can’t keep my eyes open and have to go lie down for a while. I get up and am awake for a while and have to go lie back down. Doctor’s can’t figure out what is causing it. It is something I have to learn to live with. Maybe it is that I am getting old. LOL
Well, enough of that. I am wide awake now and need to get this newsletter done so I can get it out to you.
I warned you this would be running late. Sorry but my granddaughter called and so this is a lot later than I planned. I will try very hard to get the newsletter out tomorrow earlier. LOL
OK, that it it for today. Hope ya’ll are having a wonderful day out there.
REMINDER!!!!!

Check out the free gifts from Creative Fabrica every day. You might be surprised at what may pop up.
There are more seamless patterns and graphics available on Creative Fabrica for free. Just search for St Patrick Freebie, Easter Freebie, etc. and you will get all of them. If you want something else, just type in the search term with Freebie and you will see what is available for free without a subscription.
I have a subscription to Creative Fabrica and can download as many of the graphics on their site free. I get an idea, I run to Creative Fabrica to see if I can find graphics to make my new creations. It is so great. You might want to get a subscription if you need lots of graphics.
I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW
What are you working on? Below, you will find some freebies that you can use to create your products. There are seamless patterns for you to use as covers for your products. Remember, always modify the images so that they are different from what someone else might create with the same pattern. Make your cover stand out and let people know you are different.
Mix and match the coloring pages, color by number, dot to dot, and word search to create your own coloring book. Add something to them to make them your own so you won’t be creating the same coloring book as everyone else.
Create a mug or greeting cards to put in your store. You might create these to give to special people in your life. See below in MISCELLANEOUS to find the links to the templates for you.
I want you to keep on working and growing your business. Let me know your accomplishments and what you are working on.
If you need to talk or get some help of some sort, I am here and will help you in any way that I can. If it is something I don’t know yet, I will refer you to someone I know who does have that information. We are all here to help each other to achieve success.
Hope you are having a wonderful, productive day. Get lots of products created or training done.
