A Must~ Read

There isn't a whole lot I can say about this book besides the fact that it's a GREAT book!! Please, if you get time, read it! I highly recommend it. And if you've read it let me know what you think. I can't wait to buy Fireproof this weekend! Night!

My New Toy

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!

Birthday Cake

Isn't this the cutest birthday cake EVER? Thank you Sandy! It was so good. The girls are having a piece as I write this. You girls made this birthday one of the funest ones ever! Had a great time shopping too! (wink)

I've been HAD~!

Yes I've been HAD! Cathy and Sandy paid a little visit to my house, driveway and road today. They made signs and put them out for all the world to see that I'm turning 30 tomorrow! I think it's so funny and incredibly SWEET! I got the biggest kick out of it. I had no idea they had a little "project" going on. :) I think the signs are adorable. They even used their new handy dandy cricut expression machines for the signs. See the birds and flowers?

Girls.... you just wait, your day is coming ;) Be prepared! hahaha

Likes: Spiritual themes, time alone, visual media, time to sleep, romance, music, swimming

Cathy's Creations

Check out the cute scallop heart card that Cathy made today. They are just too cute for words. She bought these little stamps from the stamping show we went to in Atlanta last weekend. Now I wished I had bought some. ;) Well maybe she will let me borrow hers. Or there is always next year right??!! ;)
Now this card is too cute! It's a folding circle card. Just to precious! It's actually 5x5. I love the little bird stamp!!

This is also a stamp that Cathy bought at the show in ATL. You actually put a little tea bag inside. How neat is that??!! You can not see it but she added green/glittery embossing powder to it to make it POP. Again... so cute! Check her other cards out here

We are leaving for Altanta early in the morning. We are really exicted about the stamping show and the visit to Archivers...;) Have a great weekend!

Blue Birds

I worked at the craft shack this evening after work. (It's funny we're calling it a craft shack because it doesn't resemble a shack at all...lol)

I accomplished a good bit. I have a feeling I am going to have to work really hard after work several evenings to prepare for the craft show. I can hardly stand to be at work. It's so hard to work and think about what you need or want to be doing instead...lol

Here is the picture of our new birds in the craft shack. Sue painted it Saturday. We love it. The picture does not give it justice at all! Have a great night!

Here are 2 more layouts that I did last weekend of the girls playing in the snow while we were on vacation. I have really been working on my journaling lately.

Here is a name plate that Cathy did last weekend for a baby shower. My dad cut the wood out of oak for her. And she used the cricut and a punch to do the rest. I think it's adorable!!

Well Cathy and I are officially entered into a craft show. Our first ever and we are SUPER excited about this opportunity. We don't have much time since it was a last minute decision. The show will be the last weekend in April. We've had so much excitement lately with our new craft shack, the stamping show and now a craft show. The lady came and painted the birds on the wall yesterday. I will post pictures soon. I forgot my camera yesterday.

O and yes Cathy has started a new blog. Please check her out and send her some blog love!!
