Can you believe that summer is almost over?? Me neither...but I am so ready for some cooler temps and all of this rain to stop. We have had a wet summer, starting with Tropical Storm Debby that dumped 18-20 inches of rain in our area...can you say WET!! We lost bridges, roads and there are still houses that are underwater from flooding....sad. It is raining today and more forecasted for the rest of the week, so it will be a "catch-up-with-stuff-that-needs-to-be-done" week for me. First project is my blog...<br /><br />Well School started yesterday around here for the kiddo's and 2 of my 3 grands headed to school this year. Seth is going into 1st grade and Sion started Pre-K. They both were up and ready to go...Sion was really excited...Seth not so much...lol. Ya know...he is an old pro at this school stuff. They both came home yesterday talking about new friends and Sion said that he was definitely going back today...Seth...well, not so sure...remember he KNOWS about this school stuff.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirndfehtgG3war9T9KbcZrHLVZq5kTNE0YmeIkkFEZ0_TMKNnGHsyQcZIqhRznRGtk6e2FzQ6fSBEe2FdtfOoC9lsBFASNeeYG8uIjseNzSnhxiPbKW_fDYyre-T_6TDfC-qQQOZGRpRE/s1600/sethsionfirst+day+school.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 239px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirndfehtgG3war9T9KbcZrHLVZq5kTNE0YmeIkkFEZ0_TMKNnGHsyQcZIqhRznRGtk6e2FzQ6fSBEe2FdtfOoC9lsBFASNeeYG8uIjseNzSnhxiPbKW_fDYyre-T_6TDfC-qQQOZGRpRE/s320/sethsionfirst+day+school.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5779125509761508882" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhByk0btyYI4JbDcMZi3KsRn-mWEP1vzb-qZZf4dbo2TPPuL35qnBh9tU472NMea2PIGYbG5tOG3ZdiopbMayHqAHZEPikSWvIER2bangM30PQB6eyWVA6aYyYE89-Um7rSCBG-UR7E0N8/s1600/scarnoshop.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 239px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhByk0btyYI4JbDcMZi3KsRn-mWEP1vzb-qZZf4dbo2TPPuL35qnBh9tU472NMea2PIGYbG5tOG3ZdiopbMayHqAHZEPikSWvIER2bangM30PQB6eyWVA6aYyYE89-Um7rSCBG-UR7E0N8/s320/scarnoshop.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5779125536493290482" border="0" /></a>Whlie the bubba's were in school, mama and daddy took Miss Scarlett who is now 15 months old shopping to get some much needed clothes...you can tell by the look on her face that she wasn't a happy camper about this. Oh dear...a girl that doesn't like shopping?? You think this will change??

She stayed below the "national averages" for height and weight up until her doctor's appt. last week. She has FINALLY caught up!!! She still looks tiny to me, but it sure hasn't slowed her down one bit!!<br /><br />I had the privilege of attending Pink Zebra's very first Family Reunion (Convention) the first weekend of August. It was fun finally meeting some of my "sisters" and "crazy cousins" that I have only been able to talk to on the phone. Also met the owners, Tom and Kelly Gaines...amazing people...and the wonderful office staff. I am sooo proud to be part of this company and their awesome vision and amazing products. We were treated to 3 fun-filled days at the Omni on beautiful Amelia Island here in Florida. Oh, did I mention that I got to go for free?? Yep...earned my trip for free as a new Manager. Love it! We got to see our new fall line while we were there. Pink Zebra has out-done themselves!! WE have such an awesome Fall line. If you want a catalog and some samples...(Oh you just have got to smell the Pumpkin Bread and Oatmeal Raisin Cookie AND the Aspen Pine Sprinkles!!) just shoot me an email to <a href="http://www.blogger.com/cindy@sprinklespz.com">cindy@sprinklespz.com</a> and I will get a packet in the mail to you.

I've got a question for you...When is the last time you played in the rain with your kids or in my case grandkids??? I was walking Sion my 4 yo grandson back to his house and yes through massive puddles in the yard...it looks like lake front property...anyway, he spots some earthworms in the water puddles..."On Na-na, they will drown", so guess what we did...yup...we rescued swimming earthworms. Lot's of them. They are now safely tucked in my garden that is still above sea level...not sure for how long. Oh did I mention while doing all of this another band or rain came...and dumped on us hard...yes...we were soaked...Making a memory!! Love being able to be home and do this with my grandkids...Thank you <a href="www.SprinklesPZ.com">Pink Zebra</a>!!Cindyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15623199574385723588noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2803105326061603705.post-35083429263884886862012-03-12T14:10:00.009-04:002012-03-12T15:00:11.017-04:00Updates...and oh yea...Anyone Love Freebies??<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEjySZ7GdMCONQCdjOr6pCTk3RJH3xhwa5V5IQhduWW91LkRiC3wFSzR_9gUpIcerKKJhjI055L15pILDb3RfaSE09mydg0I1wyciOXPSAP5ZGztbtbAG5Qej4yxgbsh_b6hQtd-GlpVM/s1600/spoons.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 170px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEjySZ7GdMCONQCdjOr6pCTk3RJH3xhwa5V5IQhduWW91LkRiC3wFSzR_9gUpIcerKKJhjI055L15pILDb3RfaSE09mydg0I1wyciOXPSAP5ZGztbtbAG5Qej4yxgbsh_b6hQtd-GlpVM/s320/spoons.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5719074810492016834" border="0" /></a>As most of you know, I am with a new company called <a href="http://www.pinkzebrahome.com/sprinkles"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;">Pink Zebra Home</span></a>.

First off I have been Jamming a little bit with my yahoo group ATC Jams. If you are not familiar with jams, it is really quite simple. One person starts a set of 3 identical jams and sends them to a 2nd person, who "Just Ads More" and then passes them on to a 3rd person and she/he finishes up the set, keeps one for themselves and then sends the 2 back to person #1 to distribute. When a jam leaves you never know what kinda turn it is going to take on it's route...it is ALWAYS fun to see how they finally turn out. They are all little works of art! Sorry for the lighting on the first one...my camera flash would not cooperate.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyDxVOrxalS9kDaZBigyBs5xDM3cElV_fBwgeaA3Yi5Bf9nOby6TccIFqRr4oB-IMNnem2WqjxxcStrrq_yozsrTzgWla-3jaM_-mvrUPsYI3V0WyFxs6chTEr70F-r4orJriRnhmIBIc/s1600/100_5650.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyDxVOrxalS9kDaZBigyBs5xDM3cElV_fBwgeaA3Yi5Bf9nOby6TccIFqRr4oB-IMNnem2WqjxxcStrrq_yozsrTzgWla-3jaM_-mvrUPsYI3V0WyFxs6chTEr70F-r4orJriRnhmIBIc/s320/100_5650.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703125632317100418" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5tL-_mnHZnKudp-1bZQ85rwfhmTVacSkDvV5ve16hfIcqP2g5UMyKZMec9Q6P_hCB4VWB6B8FPmRByEKpZBmAgR63Z8Bhp6H1Lmx-nzVVklJru1A4eS2SLfDQLUZsLhQRUUIvE4LL87E/s1600/100_5559.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj5tL-_mnHZnKudp-1bZQ85rwfhmTVacSkDvV5ve16hfIcqP2g5UMyKZMec9Q6P_hCB4VWB6B8FPmRByEKpZBmAgR63Z8Bhp6H1Lmx-nzVVklJru1A4eS2SLfDQLUZsLhQRUUIvE4LL87E/s320/100_5559.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703125652734818914" border="0" /></a>Next is a couple of cards I made for a yahoo group that I am in called Friends that Scrap. There are about a dozen of us that participate in a birthday club. These 2 are on their way to 2 gals that have birthdays coming up. I used my cuttlebug embossing folder on the white for the dots and then a little bit of Springtime cardstock from Echo Park along with some ric-rack and ribbon. The button card was a printable I found online at Pinterest...oh, have you found Pinterest??? I have a brand new addiction...you MUST check it out. You can visit my boards right <a href="http://pinterest.com/cindy4pg/">here</a>. The button card is in my file titled "Print It". Anyway...the buttons on the card are from my stash.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPkqpUHYU-GU4vf1BUatY18738dTIU2GJcaX7Q6pbI4Op887WQ9lm6jdHrTBfyBguKrmrPtILtnOeWGMFvBxamtgpymJ_1e0ViD8mstOfOieQEZAVzoU4VDvGfzDUgUVhZLdtsNOvicPs/s1600/100_5617.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPkqpUHYU-GU4vf1BUatY18738dTIU2GJcaX7Q6pbI4Op887WQ9lm6jdHrTBfyBguKrmrPtILtnOeWGMFvBxamtgpymJ_1e0ViD8mstOfOieQEZAVzoU4VDvGfzDUgUVhZLdtsNOvicPs/s320/100_5617.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703125637407252482" border="0" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqS3Zb9CxOecLiwFNMPOxSsQBWxhaaD1RhiiA-yX2Pe76J7-Tbb76ug-1j0PYjSP111wDdMVTIUnwhpBcsLQt9ht2JrelGx5RdC0y5vpjs4_nckhuqRNms4X4pqpoqDKFbDwkuyffs-dc/s1600/100_5618.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqS3Zb9CxOecLiwFNMPOxSsQBWxhaaD1RhiiA-yX2Pe76J7-Tbb76ug-1j0PYjSP111wDdMVTIUnwhpBcsLQt9ht2JrelGx5RdC0y5vpjs4_nckhuqRNms4X4pqpoqDKFbDwkuyffs-dc/s320/100_5618.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5703130311243629026" border="0" /></a><br />Second I wanted to let you know that the first Pink Zebra Home Spring/Summer catalog will be available the first week of February...yaaaay!

I think there will be 7 sleeves in all this year...maybe more...who knows...lol.. Here I have wire, metal, bling and cracked glass to share with you. I always have scent samples and catalogs if anyone wants one, just let me know.

I just love doing these...it is really fun to be part of a 3 person team working on the same ATC. You never know what the card is going to look like when it finally comes back to you. I have been "Jamming" for a couple of years now. It is very addicting!! It has been a crazy busy 2 months...can't believe that it is Christmas already. I hope to get back to my scrapbooking, card making and ATC's after the first of the year.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn2xOE-YywsWdOV2rkAyNyeeln45zW8yFCCOqUJerCLrqSdZvEjXVXIY_h7AA1iQNelUIIadwVkQWJsZ6VXqDwWCF-KtQxBeqOH3fCaD-0gHaCbOCc-tipXijlG8zOL3AOWYaq0dpuccA/s1600/100_5557.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjn2xOE-YywsWdOV2rkAyNyeeln45zW8yFCCOqUJerCLrqSdZvEjXVXIY_h7AA1iQNelUIIadwVkQWJsZ6VXqDwWCF-KtQxBeqOH3fCaD-0gHaCbOCc-tipXijlG8zOL3AOWYaq0dpuccA/s320/100_5557.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5690108226432074994" border="0" /></a>I posted back in November that I had started a new business with a brand new company that just launched in September of this year (2011).

Right now <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.pinkzebrahome.com/sprinkles">Pink Zebra</a> has less than 200 consultants nationwide.

She weighed 7 lbs. 15 oz. and was 19 3/4" long. Mama had quite an ordeal getting her here. Because of blood pressure problems my daughter was hospitalized over 4 weeks before Scarlett was born. Daddy works 24 hour shifts, goes to school and has clinicals to do, so Na-na (that's me) took care of the boys, who are 3 and 5 and FULL of energy...Na-na is not! I had little time to do anything else. I now know why God give us our babies when we are young! I also have a whole new respect for those grandma's out there that are raising their grandchildren for what ever the reason may be.

I fill in for the Post Master when she is off. Now that we have the holidays behind us it is slowing down just a bit and I am finally on my 2 day a week schedule which I am liking pretty well. Now I can get back to what I like doing best...playing with paper and ink...lol<br /><br />Christmas came and went pretty quickly around here.

Lot's of great gals here and lot's of things going on. Definitely a lot of chatting going on, but we also have swaps, PIF's, games and a lot of chatting going on...oh wait...I said that...<br /><br />Right now I am working on ATC swaps and an ongoing recipe swap. Just finished up my recipes. This months theme was "Chocolate"...so I chose Oreo Truffles. If you have never tried these, do yourself a favor and run to the store right NOW and pick up the ingredients...you will not be sorry!! I used my Cricut Expression and my "From my Kitchen" cartridge to cut out the little mixer. The pattern paper is some from my stash from the Cookbookin' line and the cardstock is Bazzill that I picked up at Big Lots 25 sheets for $5 bucks! Lot's of great colors in this stack.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrB3FqulHZZg_nFyH_YUwbxKdoK_DpY3XhkQlBz60-FfQ0Qq71qjJeo9W2xx-4u8-hKtRzhHchMyK_BDvDq4AQCqLu7RIpot-oVJ7cK4yRgptGyvrqhSOrSuumhmH5VKnIjqnYHIDgl0E/s1600/100_4834.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrB3FqulHZZg_nFyH_YUwbxKdoK_DpY3XhkQlBz60-FfQ0Qq71qjJeo9W2xx-4u8-hKtRzhHchMyK_BDvDq4AQCqLu7RIpot-oVJ7cK4yRgptGyvrqhSOrSuumhmH5VKnIjqnYHIDgl0E/s320/100_4834.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566206180380763906" border="0" /></a>We also had our very first ATC swap. If you are not familiar with ATC's, they are like Baseball Cards for Artists. There are only 2 rules with ATC's...1) they must be 2 1/2 X 3 1/2 and 2) they must not be sold...only traded. Each one is a little masterpiece. These little guys are VERY addictive. I have been collecting and trading now for about 2 years and I have almost 150. I love each and every one. Most swaps are themed, but our first one was an "anything goes" theme. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuD9fQPt-J7iEVo5J-JqW789CMVUBcGUozL9aOgyYIrHsYym19gbkWYQQMEnlV6YucT97gD9wiNN_kxFIq0wXLLyKe2cYxikeqx7PHmJ_sFqE36wH7RhLNvfC-V64TjkaLjNmMKXNfygE/s1600/100_4836.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuD9fQPt-J7iEVo5J-JqW789CMVUBcGUozL9aOgyYIrHsYym19gbkWYQQMEnlV6YucT97gD9wiNN_kxFIq0wXLLyKe2cYxikeqx7PHmJ_sFqE36wH7RhLNvfC-V64TjkaLjNmMKXNfygE/s320/100_4836.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566206184670959202" border="0" /></a>We are taking sign-ups now for our next one in February...theme is "Sunshine"...maybe that will help to warm our cold toes!!<br /><br />I have also discovered ATC Jam's and I am absolutely having a blast with these. What is a Jam you ask...let me tell you. " JAMS are where one person begins by preparing three (3) identical backgrounds and sends to person #2. Person #2 adds something (same thing to each card) and sends to person #3. Person #3 adds something (same thing to each card). The set is now complete. Person #3 keeps one card and mails the other two cards to Person #1, who in turn will mail one card to person #2. This completes the JAM." (Explanation comes from the welcome page of another Yahoo Group called "<a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ATC_JamsGalore/">ATC Jams Galore</a>"). I joined this group about 3 months ago and I have been a jammin'. Here is a photo of some of the completed jams that I have worked on. I've worked on several more in the #1 and #2 position and am patiently (not) waiting on them to come home so I can see how they turned out!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr-XUMSPuFShEGJawg1bzyv52lDBjYwV7hdgBufvkGa3YTbDPtg1eG_2xWnEkZDBvQQHTSGZWbrvX8fmVo3jJtgIUDh2p_I8VdIRCrU46CSFoM6FNsSHJCrCnezxrl8v-h-cDiacAdNSE/s1600/100_4833.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgr-XUMSPuFShEGJawg1bzyv52lDBjYwV7hdgBufvkGa3YTbDPtg1eG_2xWnEkZDBvQQHTSGZWbrvX8fmVo3jJtgIUDh2p_I8VdIRCrU46CSFoM6FNsSHJCrCnezxrl8v-h-cDiacAdNSE/s320/100_4833.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5566206174079982162" border="0" /></a>In the midst of all the December craziness I made a Christmas gift for my mom of note cards.

I was really getting worried that you would never get here!! I do love Autumn...it's absolutely my favorite time of the year. Even though I am still in shorts and tank tops during the day, there is definitely a little nip in the air in the mornings when I take Jasper out. Love it!!!<br /><br />I worked on some cards last week for a couple of birthdays and I also completed a journal that I have been wanting to do for quite some time now. The cards (I made 3) were made using the Happy Birthday Cuttlebug folder and a few trims and flowers that I had in my stash. I thought they turned out kinda cute.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5NL-jXePWpEc12Ku_IRJ0nQRTCs24czA-9bzt7GH2NJTa_dB1bjcGGUftIDhVJFtTSHYi90fLV_ZSWKIcR4gnucnP77Potno7tG94MJaxzjXpT8miwhrHeRK75Cr0CrFxVnJLDxZeF2E/s1600/100_4713.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5NL-jXePWpEc12Ku_IRJ0nQRTCs24czA-9bzt7GH2NJTa_dB1bjcGGUftIDhVJFtTSHYi90fLV_ZSWKIcR4gnucnP77Potno7tG94MJaxzjXpT8miwhrHeRK75Cr0CrFxVnJLDxZeF2E/s320/100_4713.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522076110393208162" border="0" /></a>The journal was made using Basic Greys Phoebe paper line.

The letters are from the Phoebe line and I colored over them with Ranger's Glossy Accents...I just love this stuff...The flowers and heart bling on the cover as well as the ribbon and charms tied to the fiber are from my stash.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAYnVp-7zZUyBI9Z5vtweQJFUDeWbXrD0PmwOxvS4dc0m-NiRbYFQqw-JFSKd4Y1HoPunBmuhazERh9VJQ5-0Edh8g21rHUl8VohbdZsYLsnpvTRbmnz4Av-Uf2cXceIPdx9l2af8XsxQ/s1600/100_4719.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAYnVp-7zZUyBI9Z5vtweQJFUDeWbXrD0PmwOxvS4dc0m-NiRbYFQqw-JFSKd4Y1HoPunBmuhazERh9VJQ5-0Edh8g21rHUl8VohbdZsYLsnpvTRbmnz4Av-Uf2cXceIPdx9l2af8XsxQ/s320/100_4719.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522066704536246754" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNwSn0vPl5BnlwcfmsCafKMv87PLQHqwaQxEIGWmaGDKFXKQHwzil914QaTQDO_608O_ypXDmw2fa776-2pihXW92-2bsSyGWKcFOBQ7qjBqnksL89MGO8uG7Ck54wfYEk10bz4WpvOto/s1600/100_4720.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNwSn0vPl5BnlwcfmsCafKMv87PLQHqwaQxEIGWmaGDKFXKQHwzil914QaTQDO_608O_ypXDmw2fa776-2pihXW92-2bsSyGWKcFOBQ7qjBqnksL89MGO8uG7Ck54wfYEk10bz4WpvOto/s320/100_4720.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5522066711547405826" border="0" /></a>Well again I need to run...the grandbabie's are here for the evening, so I had better get some dinner cooked.<br /><br />I will<br />TTYL<br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/201/DAE5446AF394A36506B48A79583A9227.png" style="border: 0pt none ! important; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;" /></a>Cindyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15623199574385723588noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2803105326061603705.post-29985280623830664112010-09-12T14:40:00.011-04:002010-09-12T15:37:25.008-04:00Summer is slowly heading out of here...And I do mean slowly...it is still way up in the 90's here and very humid. It will cool down soon, it will cool down soon, it will cool down soon!! At least that is what the calendar is saying. Yes I am a cool weather person...I can't help it, I am. The grandbabie's have been enjoying what is left of the warm weather with some pool time. Seth who is 4 is swimming pretty good on his own now and Sion who is 2 is becoming quite a water baby too! They love it when Uncle Boo swims with them. His name is Christopher, but when Seth was little that was quite a mouth full for him to say...Uncle Christopher...it kinda came out "Unka Foo" and eventually ended up being "Uncle Boo."

The second one I "colored" and then very carefully cut it out...love my Tim Holtz scissors by Tonic...and then pop dotted to the first image. There is a glittery yellow button from American Crafts Elements in the center tied with embroidery floss. The paper is from Graphic 45...Domestic Goddess. I just love Graphic 45!

He had gained a couple of pounds and had gotten very sluggish, grumpy and slept all the time. He also started having seizures. A trip to the vet and some blood work found he has a thyroid problem...did you know that dogs can have thyroid problems??? Anyway, he is now on thyroid meds twice a day. We noticed almost immediately that he seemed to be perking up. He has been on it a month now and is back to his old self...playful, full of energy, and wants to go outside and run EVERYWHERE...several times a day...wears me out...lol. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-dWThRDrXjiYnstsaijkwBTUnsP2X5wFrT5dKSjfOhA7q2pu2-gJC-PH70Hbc_vIyEF_18DU3xbxfSF4cRC1TmAOjyNFYE58CcyqHw_-_pZ-ijIxKkEvWZvNk0qbE8yi-SEdc49uC0fQ/s1600/100_4691.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-dWThRDrXjiYnstsaijkwBTUnsP2X5wFrT5dKSjfOhA7q2pu2-gJC-PH70Hbc_vIyEF_18DU3xbxfSF4cRC1TmAOjyNFYE58CcyqHw_-_pZ-ijIxKkEvWZvNk0qbE8yi-SEdc49uC0fQ/s320/100_4691.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5516099815031745074" border="0" /></a>He goes back to the vet tomorrow for more blood work to check his levels.

Scrapbooking can be a wonderful diversion to get your mind off of what is going on around you, if only for a couple of hours. Sion loves his book and loves to push the buttons on the embellishments on 2 of the pages...they light up. I've only completed a couple of pages, but hey...it's a start!! Hope to get it near completion before he wears the batteries out in the embellishments!! LOL On this layout I used a sketch from <a href="http://letsscrap.ning.com/">Let's Scrap</a> a new .ning group that I found. You need to check them out, lot's of great sketches and layouts from the sketches. I like that, you see the sketch and then see many interpretations of that sketch from different people.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3STVaWyHCNcKK8dhiz2YWGo6iDtn1I8kdIVZWM5BhPFem5X_Dlj61i1VJmv1x-3f35Gag5OINh-pdUqnMq46NE-XNkd4IuquS1q6NLjoUtJJ0vv1GwRSo28IPqymw_ko_DlARtbU9ZAE/s1600/100_4663.JPG"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh3STVaWyHCNcKK8dhiz2YWGo6iDtn1I8kdIVZWM5BhPFem5X_Dlj61i1VJmv1x-3f35Gag5OINh-pdUqnMq46NE-XNkd4IuquS1q6NLjoUtJJ0vv1GwRSo28IPqymw_ko_DlARtbU9ZAE/s320/100_4663.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5502305129410773154" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQQ18ulhe-noaB83KK8F3ul9CAy9FoVoEpPfuk_DuSNe5C1FeVBYMb3Ne_nW6N1PzSEz3swZhm7NLUq8fAz4QBkDwqqWccv8pIG0hOe5FTPQW8InMMZkKP1LMQehGGl0Mbf0etJKTvUKc/s1600/tree.jpg"><br /></a><br />TTYL<br /><a href="http://www.mylivesignature.com/" target="_blank"><img src="http://signatures.mylivesignature.com/54487/201/DAE5446AF394A36506B48A79583A9227.png" style="border: 0pt none ! important; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent;" /></a>Cindyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15623199574385723588noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2803105326061603705.post-19385248540500986312010-07-01T15:14:00.009-04:002010-07-01T16:08:30.947-04:00Happy Birthday to Sion!! and a few other goodies...Sion my youngest grandson turned 2 on May 29th.

He will start Pre-K this August. Time sure does fly! We had a family get-together Saturday for his birthday. He wanted a Mario cake, so his mom took him to a wonderful place here in Macclenny called "Sugar and Spice" and Mrs. Livingston made his cake...she does such a wonderful job and the cakes are always good. She has been doing this a while...I can remember when she made my daughters cake for her 5th or 6th birthday...Strawberry Shortcake...it was adorable. Anyway, the weather was beautiful, just a bit windy. It was a little hard keeping the candles lit for Seth to blow out..lol<br /><br />He got new swing set for his birthday (actually it is shared by Sion, who will turn 2 in May) and I do believe if it had taken 10 more minutes to get it together, he would have just fell out...he was so excited!!

Why is it that freezing temps don't kill weeds???<br /><br />When the temps crawled out of the 30's and 4o's the grandkids were able to get outside for a bit. They are like most little ones, they enjoy being outside. Be-Pa (Seth could not say Grandpa, now the name has stuck) got the 4-wheeler out and rode the kids around and around and around the yard.

To catch you up...we had a wonderful mini vacation to Blairsville, Ga. the end of October. The color in the North GA mountains was absolutely breathtaking! We had a wonderful time visiting with family and sight-seeing. We got back home the 29th and settled back in here. Halloween evening my daughter Cristy and her hubby took Seth and Sion trick-or-treating at their other grandma's home. When they were in the process of leaving, Cristy stepped and fell in a newly dug up flower bed as she was trying to catch Seth who was jumping off of the steps. She turned her ankle when she fell and Seth's 53 lbs on top of her broke her ankle...BAD!! Every bone...The doctor said that she only see's this kind of ankle injury when people fall from roofs or from auto accidents. So after surgery, 9 screws and 1 plate later, she is s-l-o-w-l-y healing. I quickly became chief cook, bottle washer and babysitter (mama sitter too when Michael is at work). She is now able to put some weight on it, which means no more crutches, wheel chairs and her crawling on the floor to get around. She starts PT after Christmas. Doctor said she might be able to go back to work in February. And on top of all of that I have been working on 3 album orders that I finally finished up Dec 23rd. Folks...I'm tired...!<br />Anyway I wanted to share some of what I have managed to get done since the end of October.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinF9K9mfiI17Fzw-dYz6WKa3boTk5d158KaWPGdwlJJaAFDYkDTWIAmlv06i__Ac4YHta0dZt05aH43WCt4q4at3vrlJXW78c2VCypylXoj8T8-IJ0i8t-MUl_UMOEydGA6W2I3VUSJcM/s1600-h/100_4218.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinF9K9mfiI17Fzw-dYz6WKa3boTk5d158KaWPGdwlJJaAFDYkDTWIAmlv06i__Ac4YHta0dZt05aH43WCt4q4at3vrlJXW78c2VCypylXoj8T8-IJ0i8t-MUl_UMOEydGA6W2I3VUSJcM/s320/100_4218.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419277123389245602" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy3Qpmb04M85nElu9kZZt6wHf0tWJ69Wu2w3_4FT7w-P1Wa-J-pzPzrwcLYZSHy3jVTUUYsrVkhPA2favg8X16KJCsiGeehsViFeVM19CWdNKI3I0Z3obI1ttfYeKGlNnw5AHNBJFuSvA/s1600-h/100_4225.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy3Qpmb04M85nElu9kZZt6wHf0tWJ69Wu2w3_4FT7w-P1Wa-J-pzPzrwcLYZSHy3jVTUUYsrVkhPA2favg8X16KJCsiGeehsViFeVM19CWdNKI3I0Z3obI1ttfYeKGlNnw5AHNBJFuSvA/s320/100_4225.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419276406311903490" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5ZTIMs9AnNty5QKX5nVsxy8nNocw2b9_U7f_9p5VnagYYhw6Xm_mYdSVNWkf_3vfxnro7iJV8R6LpHgNnzdBrntAoJWcCJR8ARJMc-NKDg7NQE8ob5zrxysNLOcb_fjH0pVEVmEDhZnA/s1600-h/100_4227.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5ZTIMs9AnNty5QKX5nVsxy8nNocw2b9_U7f_9p5VnagYYhw6Xm_mYdSVNWkf_3vfxnro7iJV8R6LpHgNnzdBrntAoJWcCJR8ARJMc-NKDg7NQE8ob5zrxysNLOcb_fjH0pVEVmEDhZnA/s320/100_4227.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419276745228822530" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6Rgzf2U6H5gA8JcBF75yOQgp60mrbaSRxj30UoydgnEOaSmwLtpmZwpcj9ZaT0C14Vp1YXVZoUg7m3yFgHsRkVJwOoW9CjPG6_5_br__hdCM1ipAUNqG36mbxQWZCHQd9iIN6hDiy06w/s1600-h/100_4223.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6Rgzf2U6H5gA8JcBF75yOQgp60mrbaSRxj30UoydgnEOaSmwLtpmZwpcj9ZaT0C14Vp1YXVZoUg7m3yFgHsRkVJwOoW9CjPG6_5_br__hdCM1ipAUNqG36mbxQWZCHQd9iIN6hDiy06w/s320/100_4223.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419273689078719314" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_-aO9Q6wiDhubkFpl7SWmC3DcHWnqvz2cqSlTJnOEOgIeofpT2Mwv__FwEFmJA8vQ2v6Qg7dDehWcD_RC3PcMhvnoW5ZNTFsh_x2ArKdWguYvPQrXs8pg3VlG-Jt-7Co8-qmHuWmSDmA/s1600-h/100_4220.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_-aO9Q6wiDhubkFpl7SWmC3DcHWnqvz2cqSlTJnOEOgIeofpT2Mwv__FwEFmJA8vQ2v6Qg7dDehWcD_RC3PcMhvnoW5ZNTFsh_x2ArKdWguYvPQrXs8pg3VlG-Jt-7Co8-qmHuWmSDmA/s320/100_4220.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419273476602525234" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiELonfN98P1ggzJIvDV5a0MnZMTovoubbVXxWo_749pq-JOKAy3GRO7Gaa_EomyN06XYnVwsxueozzCZbhPJpy8u1WIYpZLOU97dYHjFjye4xYggLpPIpPFFPyZDn-IEqwH1yBcLwBy0s/s1600-h/100_4217.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiELonfN98P1ggzJIvDV5a0MnZMTovoubbVXxWo_749pq-JOKAy3GRO7Gaa_EomyN06XYnVwsxueozzCZbhPJpy8u1WIYpZLOU97dYHjFjye4xYggLpPIpPFFPyZDn-IEqwH1yBcLwBy0s/s320/100_4217.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5419273468719995618" border="0" /></a>In the middle of all that was going on I did manage a few swaps.

I LOVE IT!!!!! I know for you northerners 42 is almost hot to you guys, but most Floridians pull out the flannels and jackets (my dh for example) when the temp drops below 70. I guess I am still a northerner at heart, after all I was born in Michigan, but I have been down here a l-o-o-ong time. I just don't like the heat and the ridiculous humidity that Florida is famous for. This weekend we are taking a short vacation up to North GA to the mountains and hopefully see some color. I can hardly wait!

Because the 9th fell in the middle of the week this year, we are having to wait to celebrate until the weekend, both the birthday and the annivarsary. I wanted mama to have something on the date of her birthday, so I made her a card. Even though this type card has been around for a little while, this is my first attempt at making one. I saw this style card for the first time over at SCS. It's called a tri-fold shutter card. I am not sure where it originated. I filed the idea away for a special occasion. Mama's pretty special!<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380021267163786210" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-jAxZB2wbU0I-UCvfS_BaB2t60G6dyhqx0X-QgW12MsiKR-VNTWiiDGTN3WivRX7LKBOSi29azAI58kumo9AJuLl9oo_ErY18MeAB0JCSYLVIYnG-4rzXd02yJpjakQWGK9x8vUX4lyI/s320/100_4040.JPG" /><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5380021257981135138" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGeNHMjHQwvPYxQ1VndgnkZqjeQyGuNIF9uwZhVHTy74hE0rGU3q36GjsWav2IDLHfhKC7cie9gbxzE0Ow4iNvTmGF9Xd1Df1zDVXTkZCtuOhcgUhvOKoohcncN4K6DDH0Tpj48CFQwCE/s320/100_4039.JPG" /><br /><p>I thought it turned out kinda cute and mama loved it!</p><p>Tomorrow's Friday!!!

I don't know about where you are, but it has been extremely hot here in North Florida. Except for a few days at the pool, we have spent most of the summer inside. You know it's hot when the grandbabies won't stay outside and play. Here are a few pics of Seth and Sion at the pool last week. Seth is almost 3 1/2 years old (next month) and Sion is 15 months. I just can't believe how fast they are growing. Seth is quite the big brother. He is teaching Sion all the things NOT to do...lol...and Sion is learning fast!!! Never a dull moment with those two.<img style="text-align: center; margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 240px; display: block; height: 320px;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376504558820644290" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7kFSvX9dsNGBxKvGZeTvoslznkwy5KA4yzwxJn1upiKeYqz2mjelaGSAclSBsBBwMegx54ue6QWgZDoglP30hCi-oAtt4SxgyDvcpGPGOnal3JVZiEYO3qBy2xDHT5PfYIDOB-xuI5Hs/s320/100_4000.JPG" border="0" /><img style="text-align: center; margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 296px; display: block; height: 320px;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376504568720225858" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpbIadkS4EForsP0ZO7OwzqymUYekARinGkAizDZdeDJyeYGasKWBRvdBHjdg17tcO9mEAo5IAYQJp9Rd2yYKEkBjdN614eSxNBlUQEMrPpuIBUw4gvJUneR1EJj2ILK2pyPy2hfUtR2A/s320/100_4002+%282%29.JPG" border="0" /><img style="text-align: center; margin: 0px auto 10px; width: 240px; display: block; height: 320px;" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376504556043753506" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi2KWkcF95n4roozyQ37XzVdAB3NHblp4MCeBFyI0l48309p0LVsnBmhztOrhYfxUCJmPhd2q8PgNx-NjcJXL-XuiVg2kg0uZTR9IkuqyN05qrC27vMWU0xLCYdThItG2j1dnVSQRBa9XE/s320/100_3994.JPG" border="0" /><br /><br />Had to show you Sion's latest trick, or he thinks it is.

I've had some sorta flu bug that has been like a boomerang...it keeps coming back. After the 2nd week of this I finally went to the Dr. and he told me basically that it is viral and you get better, feel bad again, get better, feel bad again, and it will last 4 to 6 weeks! So far he has been right...I am into week 4 and haven't felt the best in the world this weekend. Anyway, that is why I have been silent.<br /><br />I have managed to do a couple of things, mostly a few cards and some ATC's for an upcoming swap. The first one here is an ATC that I made using a stamp from Unity Stamp Co. I do love these stamps.<br /><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6jqQ-JQ4FVtSQhVxXyqZmhlWsXChiKDXV1hBKHKMIuIaY5CzSXq5w-UwVLS5hRnGtuwcBLmb9PzQwQViUIK2_WsprG09KU6KfdtDpvBT4EOhP8dYylev-cYVN_wn7OPEOSRWuReLbV6Q/s1600-h/100_3940.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5362945037834644866" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6jqQ-JQ4FVtSQhVxXyqZmhlWsXChiKDXV1hBKHKMIuIaY5CzSXq5w-UwVLS5hRnGtuwcBLmb9PzQwQViUIK2_WsprG09KU6KfdtDpvBT4EOhP8dYylev-cYVN_wn7OPEOSRWuReLbV6Q/s320/100_3940.JPG" /></a></p><p>Then I took one of the ATC's and used it on a card for a "white-space" challenge. So if you are wondering what to do with ATC's other than just collecting them like I do, you can always incorporate them into a layout as an embellishment or use them on a card front.<br /></p><p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU6cldBl8JmPbrm3kwhuEpNAd52L3x6ImVuUuLPevdYFdWQrnKNab4DQ4wmRqhLRmhTRPfGDPW-nY609QAAOi6CNgg6mKDV-5q5kI7wLgpmyV83yRfy7vlR6H4meeG4_mNEQ7gb9MfrqE/s1600-h/100_3944.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5362945289388520386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU6cldBl8JmPbrm3kwhuEpNAd52L3x6ImVuUuLPevdYFdWQrnKNab4DQ4wmRqhLRmhTRPfGDPW-nY609QAAOi6CNgg6mKDV-5q5kI7wLgpmyV83yRfy7vlR6H4meeG4_mNEQ7gb9MfrqE/s320/100_3944.JPG" /></a> As many of you know I am a member of ScrapbookingCraftingfriends and I am participating in an ATC swap. The theme is sunshine, so for this I am using two of the stamps from Unity Stamp Companies kit of the month. I colored these with my Prismacolor Pencils and OMS. A touch of Star Dust Stickles add just a bit of bling to the ATC's. I finished them off with some tiny yellow brads in the corners.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgm6wdLYtkB1Hzox-YTjMrXF6R25s3IrDc70g6mF4sz4WCSRTxwJuYwVj9M_laBXta-ITC_VPMpfSTtDpH61gJErf4GVTRoa5STnKkCth4JAJeDpL7tj8FKunTnclB_SFLPMPT6kZMBhkk/s1600-h/100_3960.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5362945717176285634" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgm6wdLYtkB1Hzox-YTjMrXF6R25s3IrDc70g6mF4sz4WCSRTxwJuYwVj9M_laBXta-ITC_VPMpfSTtDpH61gJErf4GVTRoa5STnKkCth4JAJeDpL7tj8FKunTnclB_SFLPMPT6kZMBhkk/s320/100_3960.JPG" /></a><br />Here is my first try at a digi stamp. It is from <a href="http://www.mygrafico.com/">www.MyGrafico.com</a>. I think I could really get to liking these. They come in jpg and png files and you can adjust the size which I think is really cool. This is my ATC for another challenge at Scrapbookingcraftingfriends.ning.com. Again I used my Prismacolor pencils on this.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYTFQyJJeQHQJpIimmun1dReE6pEzDJpzNB7oP1u2UICjva6RATNXjL_9X8VXmJJsEq5PAkmT8cJIoPUDVia0dH-CEQnoLHQ9rr9VJ04MFjlECwbvP089BMMnDerOpkhwPERny3QYSrPE/s1600-h/100_3934.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5362945514143281042" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYTFQyJJeQHQJpIimmun1dReE6pEzDJpzNB7oP1u2UICjva6RATNXjL_9X8VXmJJsEq5PAkmT8cJIoPUDVia0dH-CEQnoLHQ9rr9VJ04MFjlECwbvP089BMMnDerOpkhwPERny3QYSrPE/s320/100_3934.JPG" /></a></p><p>This one here I am killing 2 birds with one stone, so to speak. I am in a card swap, yes, at <a href="http://www.scrapbookingcraftingfriends.ning.com/">www.Scrapbookingcraftingfriends.ning.com</a> and also doing a color challenge in another group there. The colors for this week are lime green and red. The butterfly is also a digi stamp from MyGrafico.com. It has been colored with Prismacolor pencils and you can't tell it real well from the pics, but the butterfly has been "stickled" with Star Dust. The papers are Basic Grey from my stash.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFAJzM_EzSXmYxRdbILH3uoVfEe4WjUil1UXh7-GV6y84pjENtaCqDFMAokccD9uD4krxRV8jW_4AOPxN2QFMcDgovaqXQyJzmWPaJ3I646jh-c1O2PifiWagCyOKthYI4t1sUSu-yW90/s1600-h/100_3964.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5362945869892658418" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFAJzM_EzSXmYxRdbILH3uoVfEe4WjUil1UXh7-GV6y84pjENtaCqDFMAokccD9uD4krxRV8jW_4AOPxN2QFMcDgovaqXQyJzmWPaJ3I646jh-c1O2PifiWagCyOKthYI4t1sUSu-yW90/s320/100_3964.JPG" /></a> Hopefully this "bug" will leave this house real soon, so I can get back to some serious paper-crafting.
