What's New, Pussycat??

I haven't posted in several days, possibly weeks. I'm adjusting to my new home pretty well and becoming very domestic in the process. I never thought in a million years that I would be as homey as I've become. I didn't know that I had it in me!! I always said that I would never turn into my mother and I'm finding similarities everyday. That's ok, though. I love my mommy.

I actually just finished baking. Baking, that's right, from scratch. I found this awesome recipe online for apple streusal muffins. Oh my good gracious! They are sooooo yummy. Especially, with a cup of coffee. They are just right for this time of year and the chunks of apples that are baked into the muffins are a nice surprise to find. I definitely think that they are worth the effort. I will have pictures of them up shortly. Hopefully, tomorrow.

I'm a little disappointed in myself because I haven't been making cards as much as I used to. I have things put together but they aren't finished. There is a Christmas card in my craft studio that I started on tonight and I will be working on that. I also have a personalized stationery set that is incomplete. There are three cards and I was hoping for at least ten cards in a set. I have a long way to go. On the other hand, I have one completed card that just needs to be posted to all of my sites. I finished that one tonight before I started baking. Its an OK card. I'm slowly working my way back into the groove of making cards until they come out of my ears. I never realized how much laundry and cleaning would take up most of my time. This is the first time that I've ever been out on my own. I've never had to do any of this stuff.

I just thought I would keep ya posted on what's been going on with me. I will have the picture of the card and muffins tomorrow. =)

Have a good one, ya'll!

I'm still here...

I just wanted to let everyone know that I am making things but I just don't have have as much time as I used to. I have some things in progress and I promise that I will have them up as soon as I finish them. I'm also embroidering a baby quilt for my BFF. That's taking up most of my time...it's gonna be adorable!!! So, hang in there with me.

I'm also thinking about doing a giveaway. When I moved in to my new home I went through my paper stash. I have a lot of repeat paper and paper that I don't think is too attractive. I think you ladies out there will love it though! I'll give you more details when I get ready to part with my paper.

Thanks!

BOO!!

FINALLY!!! A new card. I never thought that I would get another one up for ya'll to see but I did and I hope you enjoy it! It took me a while to make this card and I thought I had lost my cardmaking mojo. I guess a Hawaiian Honeymoon will do that. =P


Anyway, the orange cardstock is from an 8"x8" sheet that I had. I'm not really sure who it is by or where I got it from. The tulle that is used is actually from the candy box that was waiting in our limo. It wasn't in the box but it was wrapped around the box. I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be usable if it was inside. Although, it would be a yummy piece of tulle. LOL! The chipboard letters are from Tim Holtz and the button is from a stash of buttons that I have. I believe the patterend paper is from either Making Memories or K & Company. I'm not totally sure. I've had it forever.

I hope you like my newest creation and you can purchase this at my Facebook page or on my eWillow page. Thanks for looking and much love!

I'm baaaa-aaack!!

Hey everyone! I'm finally back from my honeymoon and I had a blast. I will have some pictures up eventually. My husband and I had so much fun. Hawaii was gorgeous and we really didn't want to come home. I'm still not sure when I will have some new cards up because I still have to get settled in to my new home. This is the first time that I have been out on my own and I'm not taking it very well. I unpacked some stuff last night from the honeymoon because we just flew in yesterday and I was crying. Luckily, I married a very understanding man. So, hang in there with me and I will definitely be making things as soon as I can. Have a great day!

Hiatus.

I just wanted to let everyone know that I will not be blogging for probably around two weeks. Gasp! The horror of it all! I don't think I can part with my internet. I have to cancel my internet so my hubby-to-be and I can get our own plan or I can get on his. Therefore, I have to cancel my internet today.

I also will not be blogging because next week is going to be completely insane! My family and I are getting ready for the wedding and there are people coming from everywhere such as Texas, Michigan and Florida. If any of you have ever been in a wedding or gotten married you know how hectic that week is. I'm not even going to be able to make cards or other neat stuff. I'm going to go through withdrawals. Well, maybe not. My honeymoon is in Hawaii and I doubt that I'll be thinking about just darlin' or greeting cards or blogs.

I will see you in a few weeks. If you have any questions feel free to email me. Ok? Have a great day!

Just a Note(cards)

Hey everyone! I got another post for you scrappy people out there!! Check out these notecards that I made! I know they aren't much but I recycled!! The chipboard that I used is the backing of a pack of order forms that we use at work. I love that stuff!! It comes in handy so much that I've actually told one of the guys that I work with to start giving the backings to me when the order forms run out. I hope you like them and they can be purchased on Facebook or on my eWillow store. The stamps, of course, are from the dollar bin at Michaels. They are from Hampton Art/Studio G. Thanks for looking.

Bookmarks Galore!

I got on a bookmark making kick the other night and came up with four new ones. I hope you like them. I'm going to be on a little hiatus in a few days because I'm moving into my fiance's house! My craft room is well on it's way. It's almost in reach. I can hardley wait! I will be sure to get some pictures once I get it to a certain level of awesomeness. LOL!! Don't forget that you can buy these bookmarks on my eWillow store and Facebook. Thanks!
