Hi All!  It has been ages since I posted here but I haven't been away from the craft world just concentrating on my Etsy site which has been a blast!!  I recently wrote an Op-Ed type piece just for my own satisfaction and thought I would post it here.  This is just my opinion, for what it is worth, and many may or may not agree with it but I'm posting anyway. LOL. ANGRY BIRDS ATTACK HAND-MADE

The color challenge comes from Cath over at Moxie FabWorld.  This is in honor of PaperCrafts new

Good Evening All and Happy New Year!!!  It has been ages since I've posted a thing but I can assure you I have not been idle.  I made lots of crafts, mostly for Christmas, but in my perpetual state of hurry, hurry, hurry I never took the time to take a picture of any of them :( I am currently working on a 2nd blog- what was I thinking, when I can't keep up with my current blog, haha.  The new

Hi all! I have more Halloween stuff for ya today. I just love Halloween...so many possibilities. First up is a card I've made for Jordan to send to Nana & Papa. It's a very simple design but I'm quite happy with the outcome. The inspiration comes from 2 challenges. Waltzing Mouse stamps provided the sketch and the theme/color inspiration is from the Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab World.  Here is

Hello all! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.  The weather here is just gorgeous! Bright and sunny and and in the low 70's.  Perfect fall weather! I love being able to finally open the windows for some fresh air. I started bright and early in my room today and I think I finally have my mojo back!  This was the first week in several where I finally was able to make a few cards. My card

Good Morning!! Well Jordan is back to school today and I'm off to work so just a quick post for you.

Yesterday his package of goodies arrived from Oriental Traders. We got some really spooky loot, lol. My favorite are the

Good morning all!  It has been ages since I've posted a thing but I assure you I have not been idle, lol!

With fall comes allergies in over drive!! I managed to make 1 card this weekend and worked on some altered paint cans for my upcoming craft show-between naps.  My allergies are real kicking my butt!

WOW! I hadn't realized how long it's been since my last post! The start of the school year is so hectic and I have only 1 child!  I don't know how you mothers of multiples do it.  Greg works nights so I pick Jordan up from the after school program, fix dinner, go over homework, try to fit in time to read with him and before I know it it's bedtime....for both of us! I have a little project to

Good morning all!  It seems like ages since I made a card but I finally took the time last night, after homework and reading time with Jordan.  We are reading a John Grisham book- yes my 2nd grader and I are reading John Grisham's newest book which is geared to ages 8-12! My card is covering several challenges but I will start with the challenge that inspired the overall look- the sketch.

I am back with my second card for the day.  This one is for several challenges as well.  I made this card for Bella and it will be going out tomorrow.  I know the challenge to send her cards is over and I did send one but thought I would send a 2nd just to let her know she is still in our prayers. My sketch inspiration for this card comes from this weeks Sketch Saturday challenge.  I made a

IWow! I can't believe how long it has been since I posted!! I am in the midst of an order for 75 wedding invitations and have been devoting most of my time to that.  I designed 4 different invitations and the selection has been made.  So far I have all 75 invitations cut and inserts printed and have started the assembly process.  Then I have to do the 75 response cards.  It's been very time

Hello all.  I have a very quick post.  I think I am actually getting this card in late but I am never sure of time zones, lol.  Mr Linky says I have 23 hrs but I don't think that is right. So I'll either get in under the wire or I won't.  The sad thing is this card has been sitting on my desk completed for over a week! I have been commissioned to make 75-100 wedding invitations!!

Good afternoon all! Well I have had a very productive weekend! Mind you there has been little housework done but it will still be here tomorrow (the dirt) lol.  Last evening I went to a scrapbook sale and what a sale it was! My friend Sonia has decided to downsize her entire line of everything!!  She hasn't scrapped in over a year and her new found "obsession" is sewing.  I picked up quite a few

Good Morning to you all and Merry Christmas!! LOL It's Christmas in July all over blog land.  My card today is for several challenges with a Christmas Theme.  This is a first for me on a few fronts- 1st time in forever that I am not following a sketch- (I think that's why it is so sparse!) It is also my 1st aperture card.  I know, I know, they've been around forever! I decided to go shabby chic

Good morning! Well it's back to the daily grind...ugh!  It was a great weekend while it lasted but they never last...they go by in a shot and then the weeks seem to drag.  I think I am ready for retirement, haha, just wish my husband would agree! My card today is for Sweet Sketch Wednesday and they provided a really good sketch but now that I look at my card I notice I missed  a detail...oops.

I have a really quick post today and then I am off to work.  Todays card is a sympathy card and I really have a hard time with these cards- not so much fun to make.  This card was made for a former co-worker and his wife.  He retired a year and a half ago due to health issues- his and his wife's.  His wife was diagnosed several years a go with a rare eye condition and is now totally

Good Monday Morning! I hope the sun is shining where ever you may be.  This is a big week here- the last week of school! YEAH!!!  Wish I had a job with summers off. Well for today I have gotten on the band wagon and made my 1st explosion box!! These are so much fun to create.  I now have 4 done and hope to  have 20-25 made in time for our craft show in November.  I made this one last week

Good morning all!  It is a beautiful day here but quickly on it's way to be scorching hot. Bring it on!! lol.  Hope your weekend is going well.  We spent the afternoon yesterday at a cub scout gathering.  Yesterday was the rain gutter regatta- lots of fun.  For those that aren't familiar with the Raingutter Regatta I am attaching a picture. Jordan is the one on the left and he won this race but

Hi all.  Hope your week has been going well.  I have been a day ahead of myself all week.  Got up thinking it was Friday and then realized it's only Thursday- jeans back in the closet, lol. I've had a request from a co-worker for a baby shower card.  She saw a card I had made with this image in blue and asked if I would do it in pink. I hope she likes it.  I've used this weeks sketch from Friday

Hey folks- this is going to be a real quick post- I'm running short on time.  I am back, as promised, with my 2nd of 2 cards made with my new favorite character- Stella from Bugaboo Stamps.  I am participating in a craft show in November at work and I am making several red hat cards as we have alot of members in our company.  So you will be seeing quite a few of them over the next several months.

Good morning everyone.  Well things are settling down a little on the home front.  Greg had a hip replacement last week and arrived home on Friday.  It was a very restless weekend for both of us.  The poor man is in so much pain but had a much better day & night yesterday.  He will be having physical therapy 3 days a week for the next 4-6 weeks.  Fortunately they come to the house for this.  The

Good Monday morning!  I hope you all had a great weekend.  We had a dry weekend- the first in several weeks!  It's much cooler but dry.  I managed to get alot done this weekend but I barely stopped.  Greg had a very restless night Saturday- in a lot of pain but is feeling much better today.  He won't be able to drive for at least 6 weeks so that will definitely keep me busy. My card today is for

Happy Mother's Day to you all! I hope you are enjoying your weekend.  I am so glad to be back in my craft room.  This past week has been so hectic.  My husband, Greg, had a hip replacement on Tuesday and was released on Friday.  He's getting around pretty well but had a very restless night last night- lot of pain.Friday Jordan & I went to the zoo with his class field trip.  I will have to share

Good afternoon everyone.  Well we are having another wild weekend of weather here in Middle TN.  I have never seen so much water! We had record rainfall yesterday with flooding everywhere.  And it's not over.  Jordan & Greg left Friday afternoon for a weekend camping trip with Cub Scouts and were home by noon on Saturday.  I'm glad they are home safe and sound but it really blew my quiet weekend

Good morning! Well we survived the weekend, haha.  We had our first tornado warnings of the season on Saturday.  We had a pretty severe thunderstorm, lots of lightening and rain but fortunately no tornados.  I've been in TN 15 years and have yet to see a tornado and you become pretty complacent about the warnings- until last year.  Our city suffered some pretty severe damage from a tornado that

Happy Friday!!! Yippee. We have no plans this weekend but that's ok.  I'm just glad the weekend finally got here.  Jordan is all excited for today at school because it's disco day.  They are having a disco dance in the cafeteria after lunch.  He was practicing his best John Travolta moves last night...too funny.  He wants to be the last won standing because they win a prize.  First grade- what

Good Morning...I am finally back!!  I don't know where the last week went.  I purchased 6 more jetmax cubes last weekend, got them all assembled and loaded up and now I am much more organized!!  Still have a few more pieces I want to get before I can call my room done but I blew the budget for this month, lol.It's amazing what you find when you clean, too.  I don't need to purchase another brad

Good Morning!  I have just a real quick post as I am running behind.  I was asked by a friend at work to make a sympathy card.  The only stipulation she had was to use my black roses on it somewhere. So I have made a card with corresponding box ( these roses are bulky!!) using this weeks sketch from Mojo Monday.  This card actually has no stamp in it- just the computer generated text.  I found

Good morning.  I hope your week is off to a great start.  I'm counting down the days until Friday, already!! haha.  It's payday and I am picking up the rest of my cubes to finish my unit. Big bonus- Michael's has them at a whopping 50% off this week!! Normally, this would be Sunshine Monday but, sadly,  the design team has finished their term and we are taking a bit of a hiatus. With that said,

Good Sunday morning to you all! Hope your weekend is going well.  The sun is shining and nothing but blue sky this morning.  I love spring, my tulips are in bloom and my trees but my sinuses are suffering!  Yesterday was such a wasted day.  I was downright lethargic but I did manage to get one card made. Todays card is covering 2 challenges- 1st is Tuesday Morning Sketches which provided this fun

Happy Friday!! I thought it would never get here, lol.  Hope your week went well.  I plan on spending my weekend in my room.  Still have organizing and cleaning to do.  The boys have cubscouts Sunday afternoon, getting ready for their big camping trip. It will be nice and quiet.  Very conducive to a good afternoon in my room. My card today is all about bling, haha. I am playing this weeks Etsy

Good Morning!  It seems like such a long time since I've been able to sit down and craft.  I was off all last week and got alot of cleaning done.  I painted my craft room and what a chore that was.  Wait until you see the colors- love them! It didn't take long to move everything out but I still don't have it all back together.I don't know what your organizational skills are like but my room was a

Quick post as I am getting this in right under the wire.  I actually made this card a week ago and never got it posted.  This was a fun sketch. Midnight madness sketches are usually quite the challenge but this one came together rather quickly. Supplies used: Stampin Up cardstock, DP- K&Co., my image is Greta from All that Scraps, gingham ribbon, blue gems from Stampabilities, daisy w/ribbon

Happy SUNSHINE MONDAY to you all!  It is a beautiful sunny day here and I am off ALL week. Yeah!! Jordan is on spring break this week so I took the week off. Time to get the spring cleaning done-yuck. I got the kitchen done on Saturaday and today I am doing my craft room. The plan is to get it painted, shelving up and organized by the end of the week!!! My card today is for, of course, Sunshine

Good Monday Morning...let's hope this week goes by quick as I am off all next week! Yeah.  I have plans next week of cleaning my scraproom and painting.  Let's home they pan out.  I hate painting but it really needs refurbishing and I want to put up some shelving and really organize my space.  If you could see the look of it today you would be amazed that I am able to get anything done at all.

Good morning. This is going to be a real quick post- lots to do. My card today is for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge and I must say I almost threw in the towel on this one, lol.  Well, once I decided what paper to use and cut out my little pieces it went together pretty easily.Here is this weeks sketch: Told you it was a tricky one!!

Well this weekend certainly flew by and I was barely at home.  I much prefer those quiet weekends when we are at home with nothing to do- with me in my craft room. LOL I must be getting old. Yesterday we had boyscouts and it was Jordan's 1st Pinewood Derby.  He didn't place & wasn't happy about. I can't believe how competetive these kids are!  His father & I were just thrilled that the wheels

Yippee TGIF!!  This has been one long week.  Any big plans for the weekend?  I had wanted to get to the movies this weekend but don't think I'll be able to fit it in.  We work the last Saturday of every quarter and it's that time again...ugh. Sunday morning we have Jordan's pinewood derby for cub scouts.  I don't know whose idea it was to do it on a Sunday morning but anyway we are very excited.

Good morning!  Well this is a quick post as I am running late...oh well Saturday ever get here!  Actually, I will have no reprieve on Saturday either-off to work.  I really hate quarter end, haha.  Sunday morning we have the Pinewood Derby race to attend so no sleeping in Sunday either. My card today was a quite a challenge for me.  This is the first time using my copics to color black objects.

Happy Tuesday to ya!  I have been on a card making roll, lol.  Anytime I can get more than 2 days a week in my scrap room is a good thing.  Today's card is a male themed card.  I know alot of people dread the male card but I actually kind of enjoy them.  Todays card is representive of a typical Sunday in our house- at least during football season, haha.  I am playing along with a couple of

Good morning - So how was everyone's weekend?  Ours was very quiet.  We were going to go see Alice in Wonderland this weekend but decided to wait until next weekend when it's a little quieter.  I'm quite anxious to see that cute little Mad Hatter, though.  I'm sure Johnny Depp will be fabulous. We're back with another edition of Sunshine Mondays, where we like to ink up our Sunshine & Giggles

Good morning.  Yeah another week coming to an end. Yippee! So do you have any big plans for the weekend?  We have a very quiet weekend planned.  I currently have 3 books on my nightstand that I plan on digging into.  I finally got The Shack so I think that is what I will be reading this weekend.  I will let you know what I think.  I've heard mixed reviews on it but I never go by the reviews.  I

Good Morning.  I'm really wishing I could stay home today.  Do you ever just get tired of the daily grind?  I don't know what is wrong with me but I only last 4-5 years at a job and then I find myself bored to tears.  I think I must have ADD.  The one saving grace is book club is today.  There is a small group of us at work (13) that meet once a month.  This months book was The Alchemist.

Good Monday morning to you all! Well we survived the weekend but it was rough.  Saturday night was Jordan's 7th birthday party and we let him have a sleep over this year.  He's been wanting a sleep over since kindergarden.  We had 4 guests- he wanted to invite 7, I wanted to invite 2, lol, so we compromised.  Five boys- 5 very rambunctious boys.  I swear they are worse then girls.   They are all

This is a super fast post- I need to get this entered for this weeks Tuesday Morning Sketches.  They provided a great sketch this week and I had this card envisioned since Tuesday and finally got it done. My image is from Sugar Creek Hollow and although the image was size rather small it is very legible in person. My background dp is from Basis Grey origins and though it

Good morning.  I have a really quick post for you this morning.  We again have no school today due to inclement weather.  I swear I have seen more snow in TN this winter than I have seen in the last 15 years combined.  Time to move further south, hehe. My card today covers no challenge- a first.  Jordan wanted me to share his really cool birthday invitations.  He picked everything out- the image

My 2nd posting of the day...I know very unusual. This is a quick post and then I am off to make Jordan's birthday party invitations.  I was ready to get started on them this morning only to discover I was out of color ink.  He found a very cool movie poster for his invites- Star Wars theme- so you know it will suck up the ink. My card is for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge and you all know

Good Morning.  I am getting a very late start today- technical difficulties you know, hehe.  I am off today and am very fortunate as we got more snow last night, ugh!  I think I've seen more snow this winter than I have in the entire 15 years I've lived in TN.  We only have a dusting, however, it is covering ice.  At 6:00 this morning there were 102 accidents in the metro Nashville area!!

I hope you all had a good weekend and survived the Super Bowl.  I watched up until half time and then had to get to work on todays card.  I had an unexpected long weekend being off on Friday and still only made it into my scraproom last night. Jordan was home sick on Friday which means I had to call in.  Greg & I take turns and, thankfully, it doesn't happen often.  Poor little guy

Good morning. How is your week going. We have here another day of no school.  I wouldn't be surprised if it was closed again tomorrow with the snow & ice we still have on the roads.  I wish I could use this excuse to stay home but Jordie is off to daycare. My card I have for you today is for 3 challenges and has a couple of first trys to it- for me.  Charisma Cards Challenge this week is white

Happy Monday morning to ya'll!  Well another day of no school here in middle TN.  I so want to call in this morning but I don't think it will go over real big with the powers to be.  They really take their jobs much to seriously, haha.  The roads are still a mess but I guess I will head in- pray for me. (I'm not kidding- these drivers scare me!)  Friday I left work as soon as I saw the 1st snow

I'm back with todays card post!  My card(s) today cover 2 challenges.  The 1st challenge is this weeks sketch challenge at Mojo Mondays.  They provided another wonderful sketch. I chose square to go along with the theme for my notecard set.My images are from Phindy's Place.  It is difficult to tell from this photo but I did a layer of glaze to give the images a glass looking sheen with clear

I left Northern NY to get away from the white stuff, hehe. Oh well they say only a few more days and then we should be back into the 40's. For my card today I tried a new technique.  Ok...it's a new technique for me

I love Thanksgiving week.  My brother is arriving Wednesday night from Virginia and will be with us for the holiday.  Thanksgiving has always been my favorite holiday,  even over Christmas.

I wish I had spent more time outside....before it's too late. haha I did spend a great Saturday evening with some friends crafting.  Sonia organized this little gathering to get a jump start on our Christmas cards.

Good Morning!!  Are you ready for another week? My overtime has been cancelled until further notice- which probably means next week, haha. So I plan on getting some cards made this week. I promised Jordan I would reduce my time on the computer this week. I've spent the last week building a new blog for Sunshine and Giggles and he feels neglected.  So this week we're going to spend our evenings

Good Monday morning to you all! How was everyone's halloween? We had a pretty busy weekend. Jordan is in cub scouts this year and they had big halloween bash Friday night. Greg & Jordan went as Darth Vader and a clone trooper. Greg works nights so he misses the cub scout meetings but took a vacation day to go to the party with Jordan. They had a ball! Then, of course, Saturday night they went

For some reason my computer and camera are no longer speaking! I plug my camera into my computer with an usb cable and nothing happens.
