Hope you had a chance to download & print these! There is wonderful news about the flowers and butterflies – They will arise elsewhere in print form - keep them eyes open! 🤓
As to Layered Life, I plan to keep the Insta profile alive and ongoing, but there won’t necessarily be a shop attached to it anymore. It’s just going to be me, Christine Middlecamp, sharing her creative exploration processes about all things scrapbook related. Updates will post periodically. It’s gonna be casual and amply colorful, per usual. My feline friends are to be included, along with the occasional digital printable freebie! 🐈
Also, I’ve plans to try and take on contract work from time to time with various manufacturers. Still very much passionate about design. It will always be a constant in my life.
As to where I’m landing, the destination is pretty darn great! I’m returning to the vet industry to work as a receptionist part-time at a local vet clinic. Originally, I’d been a certified feline vet tech for five years. Now that motherhood is slowing down, I’m branching out once more and escaping the home (after fifteen years of being home for my son) It feels fantastic! Plus, who doesn’t love daily dog kisses?! Plus, I reopened my small artisan jewelry business - a popular place with bodes of delicate layers and eye-catching colors transformed into sparkly wearables. My bead obsession goes way back. I’ve actually been beading longer than anything paper related. I once served as a member of The Minnesota Bead Society and contributed tutorials to Bead & Button magazine. Around the same time, I was employed at a local bead shop where I was gifted a mentor with great talent. She introduced me to the world of beaded sculptural design and all its underpinnings. The art journey has been loooong and full of surprises! 😉
Layered Life orders depart Monday, February 27th. There are quite a few, so I appreciate your patience in my handing them off to USPS.
The response to the close-out sale went above and beyond! Thank you to those who stopped by and made one final investment in Layered Life! ❤️
