Hi, I'm Di Hickman and welcome to my blog. I'm a group fitness instructor and personal trainer. When not working out I'm usually working on some crafty projects or down at the thrift store picking up some bargains. This is my personal blog so there is a mix of health & fitness, crafts, sewing, thrifting, and personal posts. I update daily so make sure you check by often, subscribe in a reader or sign up for email updates
I've been submitting to scrapbooking.com's online ezine for a few months now. Mostly Boxer projects that I've made, but in November I was browsing their website and saw they were looking for freelance writers. As I don't get chance to write many paper articles these days I figured I'd apply. Long story short I am now a freelance writer for scrapbooking.com :) (If you'd been sneaky you'd have seen a link to the left added last weekend). Below you can see a few of my projects from my January article. If you wanted to check out the full article, with more projects, you can find it in their archives here.
Patterned Paper: Boxer Scrapbooks; Stickers: Boxer Scrapbooks; Cardstock: DCWV; Die cut: Sizzix (double heart die); Felt: artists own; Envelope template: one heart... one mind

If you view the article, you'll also see full step by step instructions to recreate the projects yourself. I thoroughly enjoyed doing the article and loved the step by step part so much it's something I'm considering adding regularly to the blog. I submitted my first article as a freelance writer this month and love the projects I made. Definitely going to enjoy being on their team!
Oh, you can also view a bonus project I made for them. Another Valentine project for Boxer, gotta love their new themed papers for these holiday projects! In fact I got a nice little goodie box from Boxer just last week, full of new stamps and other CHA product. Gotta get busy with that!
