The beginning

I have never thought about doing a blog until recently. I am a very creative person who loves to share her love of everything crafting, art, food, family and our furry family.

Let me introduce myself!

I am determined woman who loves herself, loves her husband and son! We have 6 fur babies 4 dogs and 2 cats. We are animal lovers so I will probably share plenty of stories with my animals being involved some how.

I am a 48 year old woman who is not ashamed of her body, wrinkles or gray hair.  I am not perfect in any facet of my life.  My mistakes make me stronger and better then I was yesterday.  My one weakness that I have had all my life is my grammar/spelling.  Doing this blog is me coming out of my comfort zone. PLEASE DON'T COME ON HERE TO CORRECT MY EVERY MISTAKE BECAUSE YOUR COMMENTS WILL BE REMOVED AND YOU WILL BE BLOCKED.

Currently I am working on my paper crafting talents, such as stamping, water coloring and so many other aspects in this crafting area.  In the past I have done many, many other crafting things.
Ceramics
Crocheting
Sewing
Quilling
Painting
Flower arranging
I love to do diy projects as well.
For a little while I had a pretty successful cake business. I can share photos of those.
You get the idea...I have done a lot of different things.
One of the reasons I chose to do this blog is that I live in a small town and  I don't have anyone to share my crafting with.

I have to learn how to post photos, so I will hopefully be back today with several of those.
Until I do....have a beautiful day, love yourself for who you are, because your amazing.

Lots of love lawnfanatics challenge

Hi everyone, now that the craziness of the holidays have come and gone ....I am setting my sites on being more visible with my crafting crazyness.  Trying new things For example entering challenges like the one below,    This one is for LAWN FAWNS CHALLENGE CALLED Lots of Love          I decided that I would challenge myself and not use a valentines stamp set as the main feature, on the card.  If you can see there are 4 different lawn fawn sets and their inks for the background and the hearts.  I truly enjoyed working with everything and pushing myself to use an easter set to make this card. I hope you enjoy this card. Have a great week! https://www.lawnfawn.com/collections/holidays/products/celebration-scripty-sayings https://www.lawnfawn.com/collections/holidays/products/chirpy-chirp-chirp https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/gingham-backdrops https://www.lawnfawn.com/products/sprinkled-with-joy https://www.lawnfawn.com/search?type=product&q=Inks Here you can see

Marker Storage

MARKER STORAGE...NOT JUST FOR MONEY SAVING BUT FOR THAT PRECIOUS SPACE ON OUR WORK SURFACE. Lets face it we just don't ever seem to have enough work space when we craft.  Constantly shuffling our all important supplies around to fit our needs.... I have had no craft room most of my life, sometimes I was lucky enough to share a room with our guest sleeping quarters.  Now I have my own space and for what ever reason i can't seem to get it exactly they way it works best for me.  That could be because I am forever adding new treasures to my space.... This post is not about showing you my space but saving space by making something to hold more of my markers then the commercial products will hold...I MEAN COME ON FOLKS WE ARE CRAFTERS...do you really think we are going to have just 20 markers....I don't think so... Here is a photo of my finished marker storage..... This is currently holding 191 water color markers Let me see if I can get explain how I did this,

Last night while watching one of my favorite you tube card artist.. https://acarddayswork.wordpress.com/   her name is Jess...her you tube channel is A Card’s Day Work.. while watching she said she was going to do a challenge and I suggested i would do it with her.  After everyone chimed in we decided to do a double challenge over at My Favorite Things Stamps...they have a few challenges...we chose to combine the color challenge and the sketch challenge. I have a half hour to get it in. I will have to come back and edit my post here but for now here is a photo. Ok now that i have shared the photo i can post the appropriate links if you are interested in the primary products I have use.  I am just going to post for the stamps and the embossing powder and a link for the contests in case you are interested.   The contest is not base on the quality of your work.  It is a random drawing. Here is the link for the Challenges on the MFT Stamps site.   http://www.cardchallenges.com/
