PLEASE PRAY!!

If you are reading this right now please pause for a moment and send a prayer up for my Dad. Friday he went to work and fell into the bay, about 6 feet. He broke his pelvic bone in 2 places. Usually with a pelvic brake you must have rehab and it is very painful. My prayer to God is that he will be mended so quickly that it will astonish the doctors and no rehab will be required.
When I talked to him last he was joking that my stepmother, Arlene, got to have the summer off because she is a teacher and he was jealous, so he found a way to have the summer off as well. I told him no such luck, we had already prayed for him and are believing he will go home fully recovered by the middle of next week.
If God hears the smallest of prayers, just imagine what a multitude of prayers can do. Thank you so much for taking the time to pray for my Dad. BTW his name is Mike.

SO SORRY!

I have been so neglectful of the blog. Things have been a little hectic but I am going to the crop a latte tonight at Strawberry Fields, so I plan to get a few things created. I am taking them home to photograph and upload. So check back in the next few days to see.

Little Dress Class!!

I took this little dress to Strawberry Fields Scrapbook Shop and we had such an overwhelming response and questions about if we were going to have a class that we have put one together for you. I had to change a couple of the trims to what is in stock but the overall feel is still the same. It will be on May 26th @ 6:30pm down at Strawberry Fields. The cost for this little gem will be only $10. Give Pam a call at 239-540-2875 to reserve your spot.

I also wanted to say thank you to everyone who signed up for the mini book class. We have filled every seat.

Graphic 45

While I was over at Strawberry Fields hanging with Pam yesterday, I pulled down a few of my LOs that I had done with the Graphic 45. I love the vintage feel to these papers and Pam sells them the cheapest in town. At the bottom is a necklace I made for the manikin, I just thought she looked so naked and needed something to dress her up. I covered scrabble tiles with G45 paper and used UTEE and my drill. TFL.

Happy Birthday To Me!!

Well today is the day, I am now 28. I anticipate a great day. I woke up to my wonderful husband planting a smacker on me and telling me Happy Birthday as he ran out the door. He left me a Birthday message on my mirror. We write each other with a dry erase marker on the mirror, just to let the other know that we are thinking of them. It's cleaner then lipstick. LOL
Later I am going to have lunch with my Mom (heart my MOM) and then head down to Strawberry Fields to hang with Pam this afternoon. Tonight we will head for Church and then home to snuggle up and watch the other half of American Idol.
This weekend we are all going to go out as a family, so the celebration will continue. LOL I did say I was having a birthday week.

Treasure Box.

I made this little treasure box last night. It is just a cigar purse that I picked up at Micheal's for cheap and some wallet size photos that I had left over from another project. TFL

Birthday Week!

I can't believe I forgot to post that today was the official start to my Birthday Week. On Wednesday, May 13th, I will be 28 years old (GASP!) already. Time seems to fly. Seems like I was just 16. The older I get, the faster time goes by.
Look at this cool cake. I want one! LOL

It's Back!!!

Whaa whoo! It's back and I am feeling so inspired. I sat down last night while the guys were watching a movie and just started creating and this is what I came up with. Isn't it cute? Some thing cute and girly just for me. LOL

MOJO!!!! Where are you?

Mojo, oh mojo, oh where have you gone? I have been in such a slump the past couple of weeks, nothing is surfacing, no sparks in the brain, my creative juices are all dried up. Not to worry this happens every so often and when it finally returns I am better then ever. I just wish it would hurry up and be over.BTW I am super excited about the upcoming class, the seats are filling.

Upcoming Class

Here is a sneak peek of an exciting class at Strawberry Fields. In this class I will teach you to create a worn leather look with plain old chipboard. Other techniques will be distressing, embossing, and clustering. If you like the look of the class but can not attend, we can ship you a kit. Just give Pam a call at 239-540-2875 and she will set aside a class kit just for you.

SSS Reveal

This month I received the card kit to work with. All the papers were beautiful and I really enjoyed working with it. These ladies really know how to put a kit together. TFL

Scrap N Supply Shack May Challenge

Are you ready for a challenge? I have one that is fun and functional for you. While using my card kit this month I thought, what is better then a card? A card with a matching gift bag. So the challenge is create a card with a matching gift bag or wrap. I chose to make mine for my Mom for Mother's day. All entries are due by next Friday, we will do a random drawing to chose the winner. Check in on the message board and leave a link to your entry. You can find the thread here.

Already?

Can you believe that my baby boy is turning five at the end of May? I can't believe how the time flies. He will be starting school in the fall. What will I do with myself with all the kids in school now? LOL I will have a cleaner house, until they get home. So we took a trip to the party store and this is what he picked out for his birthday. He loves Curious George, when I go anywhere he always tells me to be a good little monkey. I thought he would have choose something more violent. Like transformers, army, or even pirates because lets face it, with 3 older boys in the house and a Daddy who likes to wrestle he is a little on the violent side. LOL It will be nice to have somewhat of a normal age appropriate theme this year.

Headed to Crop...

at Strawberry Fields today. I am uploading photos to pick up on the way and then I will be scrapping my heart out. I almost feel guilty because I am going to be there all day next Saturday cropping, but I just can't quit build it up inside me to feel that way. LOL I hope everyone has a great day.

Cup Cake Birthday Card

I made this card with the Kaiser, Sugar Sugar collection for Pam at Strawberry Fields. I used a Prima flower, MM trim, & clear sugar glitter. It was such a fun little card to make, I free hand cut it and folded the bottom to look like a cup cake paper. On the inside I cut out a cup cake from the PP and stickled it a little bit and pop dotted it out. TFL
