I am a mom of two. I was lucky enough to marry my high school sweetheart and best friend. We have three cats, two dogs and 2 hamsters in our family. I was diagnosed with Lupus a while back and had to quit my job due to stress. Now I am a SAHM trying to help our budget by designing craft items on ETSY... Thank goodness for the crafting community.. They are truly the kindest people in the world...
This Magnolia Tilda card was created for the Halloween Challenge at Magnolia Stamp Lovers... Check out all the other designs at: http://magnoliastamplovers.blogspot.com/
Just a quick post to let everyone see what cards I've been working on... I had so much fun with the Halloween one..
I've been in a card frenzy for some reason.. I don't know why.. i think that because its been so long that seeing how quick the cards go together just makes me happy.. I'm LOVING the coloring using gamsol.. but I've got my eye on some copic markers... can you say "Oh, Santa...."... anyway, thought I'd share some of the designs I've been working on.. Hugs for now..
WOW.. time truly does fly. I have not been able to craft anything in almost a year.. (GASP, CLANK) (sound of several hard core crafters hitting the floor.. LOL) This past year has been very hard mentally for my family. We lost my mom and I just have not had the energy to even think about crafting.. Now that fall is approaching I can feel myself start to come alive again. My mom LOVED the fall. It was her favorite time of the year. She would always visit and we would sit in the craft room with coffee and dream of our next craft project.. I miss that.. I miss her.. but I know that she is watching me from above.. (probably telling Saint Peter that she would have used a different color stickle for that paper).... Its time now to get back into the things I love. Family, Scrapping, Crafting... and to realize that its o.k. to be happy again. Thats what mom's want for us...
hey there.. sorry that its been so long between posts.. I've been so busy trying to learn new programs.. also in the middle of getting my scrap room in order.. (hoping to be complete soon..) anyway I wanted to share a few things I've been working on... c ya soon..

hey everyone.. Here is the layout I submitted to the GDS design team for round two of the Supreme Team Challenge.. Looking thru the gallery I noticed there are some amazingly talented crafters around the world.. Hopefully I'll make it to the next round..
Go Digital Scrapbooking... YEAH !! I actually made it to Round 2 of the Go Digital Scrapbooking Supreme Team Challenge.. I can't believe it.. There was some SERIOUS talent that entered the contest.. We were able to use the kit called Your Day by Dani.. It was an amazing kit to work with.. Here is the layout I used for Round1. We had to use only products from the kit and original brushes and tools from our program.. No actions, scripts, etc.. It was actually hard to do as I've been using actions for so long.. I had to remember how to do things step by step.. We get to use a beautiful kit called Waiting for you by Majula in the next round. Wish Me Luck.
