It is with great excitement that we begin to introduce the NEW Melissa Frances product launches for 2012.
Over the next few days, we will be sharing with you our 2 new paper crafting Collections, along with the launch of a new division of our company. It is always exciting when we finally unveil what has been top secret for months. We hope that you enjoy our peeks - and be sure to read to the end as Melissa has kindly offered a blog giveaway with this post!
Today we would like to share with you our new Crafting Collection called "C'est la Vie" [definition: That’s Life].
C’est la Vie - Life doesn’t always go the way we want it to. We all face struggles and obstacles. It is how we handle them that defines us. This collection celebrates life in it’s imperfect, inherent messiness. Like our Thankful collection, these papers will have part proceeds donated to www.breastcancer.org, Melissa's charity of choice.
