Canvas made for step-daughter

Here is a canvas that I made for my step-daughter. I love her just like one of my own children. I got the idea for this from a friend (Julie). She is also a crafter :)
I wish that we were closer (in distance) but I am very thankful for Skype because it's kept us closer. We are able to see her face while talking to her. Opening Christmas & Birthday gifts just isn't the same, but at least we can still watch it!

Happy New Year :)

Hope you all had a safe and happy New Year! We stayed in...with the kids. Chris has started a new tradition with them which is banging pots and pans together at the strike of midnight (something he used to do as a child). They love it.

2012 has came and went. One of my resolutions this year is to keep up on this blog. I know that several people ask me "do you have a website" and this is the closest thing I have, but I tend to be a little reluctant to give them the web address because I don't keep up on it the best I should.

My laptop crashed shortly before Christmas and I've lost ALL my pictures :( For those of you that don't know me, I take a TON of pictures! I am very devastated about it for the simple fact that if the computer repair guy can't save them off my hard drive, then those pictures of the kids I had are gone forever! I had them backed up on our main home computer but it too went belly up about 3 months prior to my laptop and I forgot to back my laptop up. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!! Every card I've made, every craft I've made, everything I've done in reference to scrapbooking will also be gone!

So....that's another resolution. BACK UP MY COMPUTER FREQUENTLY!!!

I hope you all have a safe and wonderful 2013! Hug the ones you love....Tell the ones you love that you love them! You never know when your time here on earth is over! Don't let a silly argument be the last thing you say to the ones you love!!

That time of year....


Makin' lots of Christmas gifts and cards already :)
I swore last year (and the many years before that) that I was going to start "earlier next year"! Well, this year I have! I wish I could say it was because I planned it this way, but it's not! Due to major life changing health issues, I was forced to leave my job, which gave me more time to craft! I know, some are saying, "Why are you complaining? You get to stay home and craft"! It's not that easy. I loved my job, I loved providing for my family, I loved crafting at night after everyone went to bed....It's hard for me to do it during the day. There is always something else needing done. I don't know the last time I got "dressed up" or wore any makeup....Definitely have let myself go. I'm just tired....tired of fighting....tired of no answers....tired of my hopes getting up and then coming down....tired of it all!

Items I've made....

Hi :)
I've had several people ask me to list different pictures of crafts, & cards I've made...
Here is a list to give a wide variety of ideas....
I have lots of items on hand. Cards usually run $3.25 each. If you are wanting a specific card for a specific occasion I can usually have them done in 24 hrs.
Obviously each item takes time to create but I will give you an approx. time frame so that you know what to expect :)
I truly appreciate you taking the time to look!!

Crafty Weekend....

I've been pretty behind on posting on here :( I need to stay on top of it, and I'll be working on that. You would think with as much time as I have to spend indoors, that it would be easy to stay on top of my blog, but believe it or not...it's not that easy!

Here are few cards I recently made.

This one is for a fellow employee who was leaving after 7 years. We are sure gonna miss her! I made this card and all of us signed it. This image is a Tiddly Inks called: Wryn - Grow a Little Love. I just love this image :) 

Here is another card I made. This is a Saturated Canary image. I really love this image, however I don't really like the way the card came out.
