Storing Letters

Monday, August 24th, 2009

I’ve been doing a dangerous thing. I’ve been cleaning out the closets.

I have a ton of old letters from when my husband was in boot camp and deployed. I’d like to get them out of the shoe boxes and manila envies. I’m just not sure what the best way is.

crissy’s art & heart giveaway – lots of blog candy too

Friday, July 10th, 2009
Crissy is an amazing artist. What she can do with c opics will blow your mind. Her site is an incredible source of inspiration for cardmakers. I’m loving the sneak peak of High Hopes. It’s an adorable little girl with her dog.
She is doing a huge giveaway. Copics, markers, chipboard, Basic Grey, and all all sorts of embellishments.

_courtney_’s Gallery: happy

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009
This  LO is for an ad challenge for Scrapbook Kit Club design team. Lots of flowers and bling. I have so much to many flowers for having a boy. I’m hoping the bright flowers aren’t too girly. This may be the first time I completed a LO only using one piece of PP.

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

I’m on a roll! My white paint dauber dried up. I took an end of a foam brush and wiped the paint on. ha! Paint will not go to waste.

This was done for a design team challenge at Scrapbook Kit Club.

Another day of work

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

The good news is that I’ve been inspired to get lots of work done. The job of a writer is not an easy one. Sometimes the words just aren’t there no matter what you do.

The bad news is that I still haven’t gotten much accomplished on the craft front. I have all these kits piling up. I know there are plenty of things for me to scrap about. For one, I still haven’t finished Nick’s baby book. None of it is calling out to me.

Perhaps cleaning up my office will spark the creativity.

Forgiveness

Tuesday, April 7th, 2009

It took me a too long to realize this…. 

It really doesn’t matter if the person who hurt you deserves to be forgiven. Forgiveness is a gift you give yourself.

 

And for something on the lighter side:

Kirk: I suspect you’re becoming more and more human all the time.
Spock: Captain, I see no reason to stand here and be insulted.

gotta get something done….

Friday, March 13th, 2009

And some inspirational to get something accomplished today:

You cannot plough a field by turning it over in your mind. – uknown

It was high counsel that I once heard given to a young person, “Always do what you are afraid to do.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson (love that guy)

Little by little one walks far.

ugh! daylight savings

Monday, March 9th, 2009

I can’t seem to wake up. Losing an hour has really messed me up. Next year I move the clock ahead Friday night instead of Saturday night. If only I had thought of it earlier!!

Winter Be Gone

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

“It’s snowing still,” said Eeyore gloomily.
“So it is.”
“And freezing.”
“Is it?”
“Yes,” said Eeyore. “However,” he said, brightening up a little, “we haven’t had an earthquake lately.”
