Mixing it up....

My Art


Emma's Art

 So I decided to take a break from my cleaning and paint. I actually was inspired by Emma!
We had to go shopping for her some new paint Saturday, she loves any thing crafty these days! Sometimes even a four year old can inspire you!

Sometimes we just need to let go and not worry about the outcome -- I have so many things going on in my life these days I am overwhemed -- SO I just  have to have faith and know we be taken care of and hope for the best.
  Crafting is a great therapy - no rules - just do something you like - something different!
Have a great week!

Hi Friend...

Hi Friends,
Hopping by with a little Spring card --made from my Momenta products for the Dlite team ...
It has been so Spring like here in Alabama - cool & windy days , sunny and bright!
We had a great weekend here just in time to work on a water leak!
I just love this little bunny from Tim Holtz Alerations movers and Shapers line...  I love my vagabond now that I have started using it. I am sure we will be seeing it often in the next few weeks!  
I used the sunny paper, and a piece of patterned speciality paper in the mini card stock mats, the base card from my stash , and a Hi Friend stamp from my Amuse stamp collection,
I have quite a collection of stash- starting to actually find things since I have sorted and labeled my world.
I cut the green on the paper to look like grass and the bunny's are scraps of brown coordination's paper.

I am off on my next adventure to spend some time with parents, time is flying by - it is almost March!
Thanks for hoppin in- please leave a comment and follow us at the Dlite team.
 I will be sending some lucky person a few spring die cuts since I have been cutting up a spring batch of Bunnies & Butterflies!
 I will pick a winner March 7th
Enjoy the Sunshine!

Simply Perfect ...

This is my first post using my Momenta products, as a member of the Dlite team, I used a Simply Perfect floral kit . It was a fun girly kit , perfect for my grandaughters! They are always together , Olivia thinks she in in charge and Lily is just following and doing whatever she wants.
They always take great pictures!
Momenta products are sold locally at Hobby lobby and Michaels, you can also do digital scrapbooking with Momenta, I have not done digital- some thing about just cutting that paper!

Happy Valentine's Day


Just let it snow!



I laughed out loud tonite as I walked though Walgreen watching men trying to pick out that perfect card!
I decided we would skip the cards, chocolate and flowers this year ... live life- you know adventure a little?
So in a late nite internet search to buy bargain tickets to take hubby Dog Sledding...
yes in the cold?
I was determined I was just going to watch... well we all know how that turned out I sure did watch from the basket!
It was a blast , just check it off my bucket list!
Time to go home again!

Scrapping Again- Pretty Girl!


I think I gave up on the organizing for now , I have 15 verticals sorted and the 16 12x12 boxes labeled by brand! Oh so much paper - too little time!
I am going to get back to scrapbooking some layouts and do a few challenges this month!
I did this one for the Authentique challenge this month! It is Emma from her Thanksgiving photo's , first time I have done a black & white in a long time!
I think I like it!
I used Authentique Orginal, Uncommon,and Special, , I cut the tag apart from the matching embellishment for Pretty Girl, used a Prima flower and some little bling flower from my stash.

Have a great week!

Good Intentions


I always start off the New year with all these great intentions.... somehow they seem to get lost about January 13th... I can't believe it is February already? It is so warm with no sight of winter...I really need a nice snow and cup of hot chocolate soon, maybe I need to go find it?
I have made lots of progress in my scrap room , finished several projects, and made a list of I wants from CHA, still working on Pay it forward 5 , might be finished by the weekend.
Waiting on my box of goodies from Momenta , working on a couple of challenges for the month, sorting some photos so I feel pretty productive after all!
My goal for February -- , make a few valentines , finish my room, and get back to scrap booking a page a day?

Random Thoughts **** Photochic & Lin C ****



1. Yes that is my New Weather Radio - after watching the news and hearing a story about it saving a man and his family I said "we need this" after all I spend a crazy amount of $$$ on stuff- so I bought 2 one for my house and 1 for Heather's House (they live in Grandma's house up my our driveway) This last Sunday storms tore up an area about a hour south of us! I stayed up all night the "storm watcher", crazy I know this is only January , today still in high 60's --
Mother Nature wake up... I think you may be a bit confused?

2. Photochic & Lin C please email me your mailing info I am sending you some Scraps! I know you both read my posts! You both were the only one to comment! Thanks

3. I think I may be a Bit (or maybe alot) OCD or ADD -- I can NOT focus .... I am still sorting and losing items ... this selling online has me in complete confusion -- I have decided to make a mailing center(out of the bedroom) -- I have been selling lots of things on FB (crazy of all places but that's OK recouping a Lil cash from boxes of great items from store)
Luckily I have found 3 of the 4 missing items this month! My glasses were in the same place on dresser the whole time~

4. I am actually on No.2 of my 5 Pay it Forward....
Not posting till I am done with 5!

5. My list is not as long for CHA as I expected -- as I sort I think Why?
I would only use it once!
(maybe a friend will buy I can use it? As for Dies Lot's of folks cutting and selling on Etsy Chipboard items.

I ordered my supplies for D-Lite today ( they let us pick oh so hard for me) so excited to see what the mail brings and to do some layouts for them I have pulled pictures already.

So have I bored you yet?
Leave me a comment for a chance to win! More Scraps of course!

Be Safe and think about the weather radio if you don't have one!

Thanks,
Use your Stash!
