A few creations

I haven't posted in a few weeks. I have been recovering from knee surgery. I am finally able to get around and have the scrappin bug back! I made a 12x12 layout for a friends engagement/housewarming gift. The party is Saturday. I need to get a frame for it. I have no clue what their color scheme is....so I am hoping they like it!

I have also been working on a few craft show things. Making tons of Christmas cards and a few odds and ends. I did make a few "all occasion" cards that I LOVE. They are so perfect because you can use them for ANYTHING! I used my CTMH card kit to make these. The inside is blank. These are all going to the craft show! Now....I need to get busy on my albums!

Together Forever

I have had this awesome frame for a month or so and haven't had time to do anything with it. So last night- in a rare late night burst of energy I came up with something fun. I was able to use some old goodies and some new goodies on the layout. The big picture is us in Antigua. The small circle shaped picture is us in Big Bend. The small 1" square pictures are us in a Moody Gardens picture booth being goofy. I filled the metal rimmed heart with stickles and then added glossy effects to it.
Danny says we don't have room to hang anything in the house but this frame hangs off a cute black ribbon and I am determined to find a home for it!

Coming Soon! Monthly Challenges!

Get ready friends! A new version of the Use it Up Challenges will be coming soon. I will be posting the occasional challenge on my blog and giving my readers a chance to win fun prizes! Stay tuned!!!

Another Archiver's Sunday

I am busy getting ready for my December craft show. Here are a few more layouts I made today. I had a great day. There were only 5 people at the crop today so I had a huge table to myself and the creativity was flowing for 7 hours! All of these pages have a 2nd page that matches but I am only posting the main page.

My Archiver's Sunday

I spent Sunday afternoon at Archivers with my friends Nicole and Michelle. We had a great time and I accomplished a few things. It was the perfect day to scrap- rainy and dark and we had PLENTY of treats and snacks to keep us going!

I made a sympathy card for my aunt who just lost her daughter to cancer. My poor Aunt has lost her husband and her daughter to cancer.

I also made a 2 page layout that I think I will end up putting in one of my for sale books. I just love the colors together. The paper was in a pack I got from a scrap mania. October 18th is my next Archivers scrappy day if anyone wants to come out and play!

Technique Tuesday Page Kits

I worked on two page kits last night from Technique Tuesday. CKC purchases!! I had a chatty Cathy sitting at my table so it was hard to concentrate and read the directions. I ended up just doing my own thing and not following the directions at all. I like the result. I think my favorite is Time Flies....

Blog CANDY for a CURE!!!!

Ok friends, family, and people I don't know but hope to someday call a friend.....I need help raising money for my AVON walk. The walk is in April 2010 and I have to raise a minimum of $1800.00. You can check out my AVON walk page by clicking HERE.

Ok....so here is the blog candy scoop. I have some awesome goodies to give away. Have you seen the new cricut cuttables? FUN STUFF! I have the cricut cuttables embossing folders AND stamp kit! A $50+ value! You can create your own embossing folders for the cuttlebug and your very own acrylic stamps with these kits. (You have to have a cricut tho!)

This is all about raising money for my AVON walk so for each dollar you donate to my AVON walk(<----click there to donate!!!!) - you get one entry.
I will also give you one entry for posting this to YOUR blog and then letting me know you did so.
So for example- if you donate $10 to my walk and then post about it on your blog you would have ELEVEN entries! If you have Facebook and post about it there I will also count that as one entry.

Blog Candy runs thru October 15th so spread the word!!!

Thanks in advance for helping find a cure!!!!
