Another Page!

After sixteen attempts to download updates for my Cricut Design Studio, I finally completed one page. I hope when my Gypsy comes Monday I do not have to go through too much craziness. I hope you like.

Here is What I Accomplished...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I hope that I will be able to create more this year. Lately, I have been having creativity block. I am not sure if I am overwhelmed with all my supplies and do not know where to start or if I am just too much of a perfectionist and nothing looks right. But here is what I have accomplished in the last few days.

Fun Time Creating with My Buddy Quiana

Yesterday, Quiana and I were both able to take some time out of our busy schedules and have a mini crop at my house. We had a wonderful time and Quiana created 3 adorable cards. While I was available for technical help, I had no creative input on these cards. This was Quiana's first time using Stickles and the Cuttlebug and she had caught the bug no doubt. Take a look at her creations.

My love of crafting meets my love of couponing!

These sliders were inspired by a video from my pink stamper and custom crops. This is the perfect gift for my extended family. I have a ton of Swiss Miss from a catalina coupon deal from Jewel and Target currently has a deal with Swiss Miss this week too. So needless to say, I was able to make this cute little cocoa favor with everything I already had on hand. WOOHOO. Besides, I am too sick to go out anyway. I hope you like.

I finally made another card....

Sorry for Not Posting Yesterday.

I want to apologize to my 3...well actually 2 followers of my blog. There was a bit of drama yesterday and I did not get a chance to make a card. There were two guys that were trying to break into my house, THANK GOD!!!!!! my mom saw them as she was driving by and confronted the one kid (he looked about 14-15 years old). I am so proud of my mom...but I am also very thankful to God that she wasn't hurt. One of the guys was arrested...but he was a young guy, with his whole life to look forward to why do something stupid like this. I pray for the guys that were doing wrong...it is sad that they feel this acceptable in society to take from others. I pray that they realize there is more out there than breaking in people's houses. I have to remember to thank God everyday for all of my blessings and for keeping a constant watch over me and my family.

However, before all the drama I did remake the one from Wednesday with the yellow dots like I wanted to, but it still looks off...so I am not going to post it. I should have a card for you guys tonight. If you want you can check out my friends blog.... http://www.euqinu2-myxcitinglife.blogspot.com.
