School Days!!

My oldest daughter Madison started school yesterday. She's a big Kindergartener!! She said she had a blast, I'm so glad. When she got home from school, daddy pulled her tooth out! It was super ready. This morning she woke to a treat from the tooth fairy! That was a first too!

I will have pictures of the first day of school, and the toothless grin later. I will also have pictures of some new cards that I've made this week.

Later!

Cards I've Made

These are some cards that I made yesterday. I thought it would be fun to put them on my blog for the world to see. They are my first try at making cards, so they're pretty "rough" for my first time out. I had a blast making them though so I don't really care so much how they look.

#1 - Maroon and Cream "Season's Greetings"

This card was super easy, but the patterned paper behind the sentiment is not very visible. The card is maroon with a cream ribbon, the patterned paper is maroon, forest green and gold Christmas ornaments. I love this card and will possibly mass produce for mailing to family and friends!

#2 - Green and Cream "Christmas Tree"

I LOVE this card!! It turned out really cute and was super easy to make! I'd like to try it again, reversing the colors of the cardstock. Dark card, light/dark/light behind the tree. I think I'll try adding some "bling" to the tree the next time, or maybe using pattern paper with a little more detail. Another card I can see myself mass producing, super easy!

#3 - Chocolate and Pink Birthday Card

I got the idea for this card on the Card Positioning System's Blog. There is a sketch posted on the sidebar that looked really easy so I decided to try it out. Click here to see the CPS Blog. Fun Stuff!! http://cardpositioningsystems.blogspot.com/2010/08/cps-180-part-3.html

I had so much fun making these cards, I can't hardly wait until I have time to make some more!!

Hey world, I'm here. I wish soooo bad that I could actually blog everyday, I just don't seem to have the time! For the past 3 months I've been working on a typing project for my mother, which has been taking up alot of my free time. In addition to that, my oldest child is starting Kindergarten on Monday so I've been trying to get her ready for that. We spent the entire afternoon yesterday, waiting at the clinic to get her shots up to date!

I want to blog, scrapbook, make and sell homemade cards, write a book...so many things I want to do, but just don't have the time!!! I think that my four beautiful children could be the reason for that!!! I have so many desires and things that I want to do, but I would not give up my time with my babies for any of them! I have to be satisfied with tiny bits of time in between feeding, playing with, reading too, bathing, dressing, disciplining, preping for school, etc, with my little darlings. Sadly it is not enough time, but my children are my life and that is where I need to put my focus.

Blessed day to all!
