1 Guest DT + 5 Fabulous Creations

Before we get to this week's Friday Five, I want to introduce you a little more to our Guest DT for September, Debbie Carriere. Here's a little about Debbie in her own words:

"Hi everyone, my name is Debbie. I live with my wonderful husband and three children just north of Boston, Massachusetts. This December we will be celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary. We have been blessed with three happy, busy little kids – Noah age 5, Nathan age 3, and little Isabel (baby Bel) age 18 months. Before children, I was a Process Development Scientist for a pharmaceutical company. I made the choice after Noah was born to leave the work force to be home with my children. I feel very fortunate that we have been able to make this work for our family.

I started scrapbooking just after Noah was born, as well. I love the idea that I am preserving my family’s memories for my children and grandchildren. I truly believe they will be so grateful that I did. I discovered Close to My Heart in January of 2008 – it was love at first sight, and I soon signed up to be an independent consultant. I have met so many fabulous people through my business and have learned so much more than I could have imagined. I started making cards and altered projects a couple years ago and LOVE it – maybe even more than scrapbooking!!

I love to spend time outdoors – gardening, walking, biking, hiking, relaxing. I also enjoy reading and baking. My dream is to one day have an RV and a boat. I am thrilled to be a Guest DT member for Heart 2 Heart. I hope I live up to the challenge and can inspire someone."

Welcome again, Debbie! You can stop by and Debbie at her blog at Scrap My Heart Out or at her website HERE. Debbie will be joining the rest of the team for 2 challenges this month so stay tuned!
