Photo Biz Break

I will never take a break from taking photos, but I'll be taking one from selling photo solution products for a while as I work my other little biz with Origami Owl.

I signed up while there was a wait list to become a designer, got in and now have a great little team of ladies and still welcoming new ones.  I'm taking it easy focusing on fundraisers for friends and small stop n shops for friends.

The new lanyards are great and a fun change for teachers/nurses/anyone who wears a badge to work.

If you'd like to check out the new products, book a jewelry bar (live or online) or even join my team - please contact me at storybookcreator@gmail.com

Back to School

It's that time of year again!

School is starting and Facebook has made it easy to share all the wonderful 1st day of school photos with everyone...but I sure hope this isn't the ONLY places we can find the photos after the memory cards have been wiped clean, phones lost or permanently damaged or when the PC crashes...  We should be printing them and including them in physical albums...or creating lovely 2 page spreads with the photos and all the fun little stories from the first day/week.  Before you know, off to college they will go!

On another note, it's like deja vu all over again with the latest news from Ahni & Zoe...

www.ahniandzoe.com/pws/homeoffice/tabs/looking-to-the-future.aspx

A buyer has been found, assets are being sold, consultant contracts are ending Sep 3rd, the last day to purchase from Ahni & Zoe is August 21st and products are drastically marked down.  Orders will be filled, but the wait may be long...so be prepared to wait if you do need to order something.

If you DO order, please be sure to use this link in order for me to receive credit and so I can monitor the order as best I can... www.ahniandzoe.com/publicstore/event/18593/CDS/default.aspx

This 'end' seems more final than the last time, but there are still some hanging onto some kind of hope that a consulting opportunity will emerge at some point with yet a new company that will be based out of MN...but we know very little if anything of what that company, party plan or even products will look like...so we sit and wait again this Fall...for something to happen with the company we once knew and loved...

I do still have some (ok a lot) of CM inventory and some Ahni & Zoe inventory if you are looking for something in particular

On the digital side, Panstoria is still going strong!  More and more Affiliates are figuring out how to work this new system, and though it's not perfect it is helping us to continue to digital scrap with GREAT software!  Links to purchase software, content and even become an affiliate are here on my blog...be sure to click through my links every time to ensure that I get credit for the sale.  Panstoria Print Shop is also busy printing all kinds of finished products...again, be sure to setup an account using the links on my blog to ensure that we are connected once you place your first order.

To keep me busy again this Fall and keep the extra curricular account filled, I'll be doing some Origami Owl Jewelry Bars to promote all the new products just released this week, including a fabulous new lanyard for badges!  Great for teachers, nurses or anyone who wears a badge for work!  You can check out my website at www.hootwme.origamiowl.com and please contact me to place an order to make sure all parts are being ordered or just place an order online.  I also do fundraisers, so please consider a jewelry bar to help raise funds for a great cause and earn some free product at the same time!  I'm doing one for LLS Sep 1-13 if you'd like to show your support with an order.

So, where are your back to school photos?  Lets plan to have them on a scrapbook page by the end of August (assuming your child has started school before then!)
