Getting rid of other website

I've decided to get rid of my official website, so I will start transferring all of my posts over here to my blog.  I will try not to duplicate anything here on my blog, but if I do please accept my apologies ahead of time.  :)

I'm back home!

I survived my deployment and now I'm back home. I've actually been home for a couple of months. Today I crafted and it felt great! I made three cards and can't wait to make more!

I am no longer a Stampin' Up! demonstrator

Sadly, I am no longer a Stampin' Up! demonstrator. Due to work schedules and now a deployment, I was not able to maintain my status as a demonstrator. I still love SU! products, and if you are looking for demonstrator, I can refer you to some awesome people, just email me at: mscchick13@yahoo.com.

It will most likely be a long while before I can get crafty again, but as soon as I am able to, I'll start posting again. Here's a little view into my world right now:

Thanks for visiting the site!

Update from March 2011 

Here is a 'You're Moving' card I made, awhile back, with some of the new SU! colors.

This card is a card I made for my grandparents to let them know I was thinking about them.

Random Projects

My daughter made this clipboard at the beginning of the school year. She couldn't find one that she liked, so she made her own! The second picture is a 5x5 journal I did with Concord Crush paper and ribbon from SU!

 

Scrappy Mojo

Well, as you can tell, I haven't posted anything in a long while. Between the long hours at work and trying to focus on my family when I'm not at work, my scrappy mojo is gone. I'm also feeling pretty limited, which bums me out. I love, love, love, SU!, as you can tell by my demonstrator-ship, but I can't mix and mingle my crafty items if I want to show them off. It has to be ALL SU! products (this is their policy). I am hoping that by getting this off my chest, I can feel better about it and move on and find the mojo that I so desperately want to find! : ) If you've struggled with this, please let me know what you've done in the past to overcome it. I usually just let myself 'take a break' from crafting and eventually it comes back to me. What do you do?

SU! My Digital Studio project

I finally purchased My Digital Studio! Here is a hybrid project I created. It is a 5 3/4" x 8 3/4" chipboard journal. I created the background using MDS (Night and Day DSP - retired, Perfect Plum cardstock) and then added ribbon and embellishments. Supplies used are journal, sticky pages, Filigree Designer Brads, 1 1/4" Striped Grosgrain Ribbon (Basic Black), 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon (Elegant Eggplant, Whisper White), and 5/8" Grosgrain Ribbon (Basic Black - retired). Enjoy!
