new moon love...



This totally gave me goosebumps so I had to share. I know it's not an official one, but I still think it gets the point across of just how good New Moon is going to be.
Make sure and scroll to the bottom and stop the music, you will definitely want the full effect.

some cool things...

Just wanted to share a few fun things.
Really cute decorative packing tape.
I think Kristy will love the one with the wood grain:)
Tim Holtz's tiny attacher is a tool I have to have.
If you're looking for another vampire series to read you might like this one. There are five books available right now.
If I hadn't just upgraded my phone I would probably be thinking about getting this little baby.
Nita, I am so happy you won the shutterfly book at The House of 3. I am glad you were the one to win, this is so totally up your alley.
Oh and at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon I am officially on vacation for 10 beautiful days!!!!

another share...




I am still on a Teresa Collins creative overload. I cannot seem to stop working with it, I made this little book for Bre about being 13. We looked through it last night and she loved it, she asked me if she gets it now. Funny girl, I asked her if I could keep it for a little while, because I just like looking through it and adding a little more here and there;) Next I am making one for myself. Of course it will be "Life at 29 and holding", just kidding "Life at 42". I worked hard to get here so I might as well embrace it right??? Oh and if you click on the pictures you can see them up close and personal;)

15 years...


Fifteen years ago I was lucky enough to marry him. He is my soul mate, my best friend, someone who knows me to my deepest core (and still loves me:). I feel so blessed to have him in my life and know that we are going to share our lives, raise Bre, see our grandchildren and grow old together. No matter what life throws our way we will face it together, and that's the best place to be. Sorry for the mush.

more creating...




I love Teresa Collins new "family matters" line and "document" line, along with the new 7 x 13 chipboard covers and chipboard embellishments. They are so fun and easy to work with. I created this book with two different sections. One section is called about me and has some fun facts and things I want Bre to know. The other is all about family, what they mean to me and some tidbits of our life as it is now. I am still working on adding pictures and journaling to the pages, but I couldn't wait to share, hope you enjoy:)

Mondays...



Another Monday, I am trying so hard to like Mondays. It does seem to be getting easier. I have to say that making lists and allotting things to other days has helped immensely. I love being able to spread things out over the week so I don't feel so overwhelmed. I never made lists before, just didn't think it would really help. It does, just being able to cross things off make me feel like I have accomplished something.
I wanted to share something I made with you. I love having this to wear, to keep me reminded of my word and my goal for this year. It says "Live on the wings of inspiration", I got everything for it from the store except the wings, I found those at Micheals. I absolutely love it and keep getting comments about it so I thought I would share. Hope you like it.

scrapbook pages!!!




Just wanted to share some pages. I will be adding these and a few others to my other blog. If you would like to take a look go here.


wow...


Where did February go??? I cannot believe it is March 2. I definitely wasn't a very good blogger in February but I am going to do better in March!!! Haven't been up to much lately. Just working, school stuff with Bre, housework---just normal stuff. I have been creating like a fiend lately. I have been so inspired by the new stuff that has been coming in. I am absolutely in love with the new Teresa Collins stuff and have made three mini books. I made a recipe book, An all about me and my family book and a true love book for Kenny and I. I will share some pictures this week. I have all the books put together I am just still adding journaling and pictures. It has felt so good to get back to creating. I think it's something I need to cleanse my soul so to speak. It just makes me happier. I have also been completely enamoured with House of 3. I love the stuff they have going on there. They had their house warming party over the weekend and I actually won a prize. I am not sure what it is yet, but I will share when it arrives. I love the book they did (Heidi, Janet and Rhonna). It is amazing, I am going to be printing it out and working on that soon to. If you haven't visited the site, you really should, it has lots of awesome stuff to download. Even has blog couture for sale, you can dress up your blog oh so cute, and really inexpensively. I guess I will quite rambling now and work on finishing up those books so I can take pictures and post them. Hope everyone is doing well and having a good week. Oh and I did read this book, recommended by Donna Downey, "One bite with a Stranger". Lets just say...very adult. Not for young people, but it definitely lived up to the sex scenes Donna talked about.
