New Photo's

Lacey on the trampoline

Haley found a bird nest.

Well as most of you know I recently bought a new camera. It's a canon rebel xsi. It really is an awesome camera. I recently upgraded from a $100.00 HP camera so you can only imagine how thrilled I am! I'm sure you will be seeing more photos in the future because I can't wait to share them! If anyone has any photo tips or know of any websites that would be helpful to me I would GREATLY appreciate it! Thank you for sharing my joy!!!!!!

Today my dear sweet husband surprised me with this new computer. Needless to say I am more than thrilled! It's about time. Don't ya say? :) No seriously, I am so thankful to be updated. My old laptop had seen better days and i am so exicted to be able to work with my photos again. I am beside myself! Have a great night!

Busy Bee's

Here is the new paper rack that Cathy gave me for my birthday. Isn't it heavenly? A local sb store went out of business and she bought 3 of the racks. It was sad to see it go but I'm glad I have a rack. Actually I could use two ;)
The spread.


clipboards





post it note holders

altered 2 year calendars



bookmarks already pre-wrapped


more bookmarks with ribbons

red and black altered picture frame

altered "My Friend" picture frame

Cathy and I have been very busy bee's lately!! We've been working so hard on the craft show! I worked all day in the craft shack. 10-6!! I sure hope all this hard work pays off!! So what do you think about all the goodies? Do you think they will sell? If you have any tips or suggestions please leave me a comment! I'd love to hear what you think about pricing, display ideas, etc...!

So far I think I have around 20 bookmarks, 2 altered picture frames (more to do!), 32 clipboards, 14 large post it note holders, 40 small post it note holders, and 10 (2 year) pocket calendars. I am going to order checkbook holders online and do a lot of those to sell.


Cathy is making cards, ribbon holders(well daddy is making them), name plaques to hang on the door or wall, large altered clothespins, large altered chipboard shapes for walls or doors. She is mainly focusing on cards because she makes them so fast! She is also doing gift bags. Well that's it for now. We are having a fish cookout tonight at a friends house so I better get running! See you next time!
