Slacker

Sorry I haven't kept up with my blog. I do not have internet at home anymore. I promise I will post something soon. (maybe). I am leaving on vacation with my parents in two weeks and have alot to do before I leave. My mom and dad are getting very excited, and starting to panick over the yard, pets and office work I have to do. But, it won't be long and I will have beautiful vacation pictures to post. Bless you all, your in my prayers.

Black and White Damask

I have been making all my cards this year, but I needed something to put them in. I love this black and white damask flocked paper. This paper is from Little Yellow Bicycle, the line is called Love Letters. The scalloped around the lid is black ribbon I believe is Creative Imaginations . A little ribbon around the handles and your done. Croppinsville can Accut your pieces for the sides, top and dividers. My dividers are , birthday, sympathy, friendship, holiday and misc. I now have cards ready to go for any occasion.

Bo Bunny Class

I will be teaching a Bo Bunny class in June. Here is a little peak at the projects. If your going to the beach, this is the class for you. If your not going to the beach , adapt it for your pool party. In this class you will stamp, work with chip board, staple, ink and a lot more. More details to come. Check it out at Croppinsville.

Fresh Start

I was thinking about the meaning of Easter today and how thankful I was.
"Because Jesus was raised from the dead, I have been given a brand new life, and have everything to live for. (1 Peter)

I have so much to be thankful for and more hope and joy than I can contain. My prayer is for everyone to have the love and joy that comes from knowing the Lord.

Have a wonderful time with your families over Easter. God Bless

Easter Time

I made a few Easter cards to send out this year. This is a good way to use up your scraps. I got the idea for the bunny face from a Sonic add. It is a circle punch and 2 petals from a flower punch for the ears. The rabbit is from the Cricut cartridge, Zooballoo. I hope you have time to make a few cards this Easter. Take lots of picture and enjoy your time with your families this Easter.

Page Layouts

OK, I really like green. It seems that everything I work on has a little green in it. Green is fresh and new. I used a sketch and added my own twist. Its just a little scrap lifting. Most of the paper is basic grey. You can't go wrong with pink, green and brown.

Have a blessed day....

Coffee Table Album

I make a lot of things for other people but, never for myself. I decided to make a 9x9 album (Bo Bunny) for my coffee table. I didn't put a title on the cover, just very pretty paper from Heidi Grace. The flourishes are flocked on the green back ground, not only is it pretty, it is soft to the touch. The first page of the album is titled, Faith Walking, which is what I do on a daily basis. As I make pages for the inside I will post them. Have a blessed week.

Making A Difference

My church, Ramona First Baptist, is starting a new study, Reality, 7 truths from experiencing God. I have really enjoyed it so far. Today's reading was about making a difference. Are you letting God use you to make a difference? I hope I am. I am trying to listen and follow Gods plan for me. Do not let the temptations of the day interfere with your relationship with the Lord. I'm listening, Lord.

Sorry, I forgot to post the cruise book pictures. So here they are.

My Favorite Things At Croppinsville

Allie, owner of Croppinsville has asked all her designers (yes, I'm one) to do layouts of their favorite things to scrapbook with. I took my camera to the store and started snapping pictures. Some items are common supplies, and other are fun little accents. This is a picture on one of my favorites, Dew Drops. I seem to put them on every page. Go to Croppinsville and check out the album of Favorite Scrapbook supplies.

Cruisin'

I am taking an Alaskan cruise in May with my parents. I made this coin book for my mother. Each page has a spot for journaling and memorabilia can be placed inside the pockets. I used warm yellow, oranges and browns from my scraps. This was a nice way to use up my scraps.

Best Friends

I am so excited I get to see my best friend (since 3rd grade) this weekend. I could not imagine life with out her. I wish everyone could have a friendship like we have. We have no plans, we just usually hang out and talk. This weekend we are going to help her dad work cattle. I'll try to get pictures. I know you think I couldn't possible know how to work cattle, but I DO. Thanks to a ex husband who liked to rope and my job I've learned quite a bit about cattle. Its hard to look cut with cow poop on you, so the pictures won't be my best.

February and March Calender

I have the February and March calenders up at Croppinsville. Go by and take a look. Here is a preview.

I never stop learning. Titus 3:2

Last night i was reading the book of Titus. The book is only one page long, but full of useful information. I really loved Pauls instructions on how to live. Chapter 3:2 Speak no evil about anyone, to live in peace with all. to be gentle and polite to all people. As my faith becomes stronger, the speak no evil is getting easier, and i have alot of peace, but be gentle and polite to all, is more difficult. Think of the lady blocking the isle in Walmart.She parks on the left and looks at can goods on the right. AARRG. I squeeze by and roll my eyes of impatiences. I will be working on that one.
