Could it be true? Tara posted an update?!?

I can hardly believe it myself!
Not a day goes by that I don't think about my blog
How it's sitting all alone, left in the cold
Probably crying itself to sleep at night
Feeling unloved and neglected.
Wait, am I talking about my blog or my scraproom?
Probably both!
Things have been busy, I know, same story, different post!
While I have been insanely occupied I have still managed to crank out a few artistic creations
This is a piece I painted with Golden acrylics on watercolor paper last week
At first I didn't like it but it's starting to grow on me.

Here's a banner I made with the GCD Studios "Homespun Chic"
They had a design team call that I thought I would try for and then I forgot the deadline and missed it! How typical.


Here's a fun layout titled "Flaky Fun" that I made with some My Mind's Eye and Jenni Bowlin
I used some Maya Mist and Maya Road snowflakes as a mask, such fun!
Mia and her Daddy had a blast sledding back in January (even though they broke the sled! LOL)



Mia celebrated her 6th birthday in December and here's a layout I did using Jen Wilson's Life Stories paper, I LOVE this paper!!!
Of course the adorable Sassafras just adds cuteness to the page.
Do you like my misting along the edges?
I misted over some doilies and really am pleased with the way it turned out.




Another birthday layout I quicklyput together using some of the new MME Quite Contrary line
The stamp is Studio Calico and it is a new fave of mine
My best bud, Tina lent it to me
If she thinks she's getting it back she has lost her mind! LOL


This is another quickie I made
I challenged myself to use scraps/materials that were on my table and nothing else
This is the result!
My Koby was missing his 2 front teeth for months but one is finally growing in!
He is thrilled, to say the least

I saved my favorite for last...
This Homespun Chic line is one of my favorites I have seen in a while, anything retro is right up my alley (Being that I am the Head Housewife of the Bored Housewives!)
The black and white letters are K & Co and I have stocked up on them, LOVE them!

My family has been going through a lot lately
If you wouldn't mind saying a prayer for us I would appreciate it more than you could know.
I have total faith that God will see us through this storm
Thanks for stopping by my blog today
I have missed you all!

  3. Hey Girlie! Just read your comment on my blog and had to hop right on over...do I ever wish you did live closer. Might just have to pull another all nighter. Of course, I may make the leap from not knowing the day to not knowing the month of year. lol!

    Your creations are amazing! How do you find the time??? I'm so impressed with you work!

    You can bet you and your family will be on my prayer list. I certainly hope all is well. If you need a friendly ear, just email or shoot me your number and I'll give you a call! {{{hugs and more hugs}}} L
