Feeling a bit more accomplished

Well I feel like we have not worked on our house enough lately; however when I just looked at the picture taken about 1 month ago I do see a tad difference, so I guess it is progress...if only we could have it done before winter...haha

I am hoping I WIN my unemployment so we can hire someone to just finish the peak for us so we don't have to worry about rigging a ladder up on the roof...and the sides are not as difficult it is just a matter of having enough $$ to buy the paint needed at once...

This weekend is going to be busy for Jay helping the J Walkin' Band with sound, so we

probably won't have much opportunity to do more with the house, but who knows...just maybe we can get a few hours in...

Emerson's Baby Announcements

Unfortunately my photos just kept coming out blurry but here are some photos of the baby announcements I just finished for Crystal & Jon. I did 40 of them and alternated between 2 different pictures. Stampin' Up! sets used along with Chocolate Chip & Bashful Blue Card Stock.

Stressed

This is all I have done so far and less than 2 months to work on it=(

Stand Up 2 Cancer

I do not regularly get to watch Adult TV anymore because of the kids being home 24/7 but this morning I dropped them off at my moms so I could get some things done and I turned on The View (which I dislike more now with new cast since Star & Merideth left) but they had a blurb on Stand Up 2 Cancer which is being held by ALL the major networks ABC< NBC< CBS which is history making, but anyway my point is that you can purchase a star for as little as $1 for a family member effected by cancer which is GREAT plus others can support that same star and donate more if they want...you can start your own group fundraiser, or just tune in on September 5, 2008 8pm est/pt.
I have saved the link under my favorites if you are interested in checking it out or donating...if interested in adding to my stars, I purchased one for my grandmothers Maryann Bulow & Loris Carlin-Dixon who both passed away from cancer. You can add a donation onto those stars or you can add your very own for another loved one!

Joy Fold Birthday Card

I really enjoyed doing the first Joy Fold Card below, so I decided to make Blake's 2nd Birthday card for his party. I used SU Bold Brights colors, Real Red ink, and DCWV glitter paper in the background of the card.

A New Baby!!!

I made this Congratulations new baby card for a friend that is expecting. I am posting this before she receives it, but we shall see if she ever checks my website, lol...if so, Nicky write a comment on here for me, hehe...

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

*The card template came from SCS tutorial that was really easy to make. I used Choc. Chip CS, Bashful Blue CS & DSP from craft store. SU stamps.

A Pre-made scrapbooking page that I made a few months ago...I have not posted a whole lot of "crafty" things on my blog so I am trying to make up for it. The white paper is a shimmer paper that has a border that reads LOVE across it.
